Well i've done the front room window and the glass in the front door, then swept the kitchen, resettled baby, not sure how long for, and wrapped the birthday pressie for the little girl who's arty we are going to later.

Hmm, coffee i think:)

You are now showing me up with your fly-lady-cleaning zest;)

Enjoy the birthday party this afternoon.

Benn looking at what amonite was talking about and think that at the moment aiming ofr it to be paid in 11 years is unrealistic even though this is the final goal. If we were to do it, using the OP calculator we would have to OP 350 a month, every month and also hope that interest rates don't rise.

This is totally impossible at the moment. Been doing some playing with figure though and am thinking of setting a target of 2000 for next year. I figure this is the standard OP of 100 each month with another 66.66 to find each month. I think what will end up happening is that we will have some months where we find more and some where we find none. But we'll see. I might get a pleasant surprise, or i might decide to set the target at 1800 instead, so it would be and OP of 150 a month. Maybe this would be more sensible, after all i can always set an increased target if we do amazingly well, and then i won't feel like we've failed if i only hit 1800. hmm

Hiya, well we had a lovely time at our party and daddy was pleased we brought him a goody bag home to enjoy when he got in from work. I'm bust watching lots of auctions on ebay that i've been bidding on, winter stuff for baby:)

Thanks Gally girl, not sure how successful it's going to be, but thought i'd try it. Better than just sitting and moaning about the house all the time, and i know to start with it's going to be hard, and take a lot of time, but if i keep going every week then it should get quicker...right?

Nothing to report on the mortgage free front, had a rubbish morning at work and ended up in bed this afternoon with soluble codeine to deal with migraine. Not entirely gone, just sitting behind the eyes, so am logging off now as staring at the screen isn't doing me any favours.

Hope you're better soon ecoelle.

I don't actually follow flylady - although she obviously thinks that we're buddies as she keeps on sending me emails;)

I went through a whole 'shiny sink' and getting dressed every day phase (must have had time on my hands;)).

I look forward to reading how you get on with it all though.
