:money:Hi there:hello:
Are you on track for the end of Jan?? :money:
Hey Muser
Probably a good time for an update on the financial stuff what with it being Jan and all
So:
I have now put in my last over payment out of my wages :beer:
OH puts in his last overpayment on the 15th Jan :j
Then we have some rent to go in from lodger - last lot to go in on the 6th Feb
Yesterday I had info about my bonus for March and that will cover the final bit coz I got a high score for working hard :A
So sorta on track for Jan. In terms of money coming out of our bank accounts / pay then yes we will be done in 5 days time. All other money is now 'just happening' but technically we wont be paid off until the end of March
However Feb pay days will be spendy pay days
I will see myself as mortgage free (ish!) in 5 days as there will be no stress from then on. Hope that makes sense???!!!!Mortgage starting balance 2011 ... £170k today £1.5k

They said on the radio this morning that today was the most depressing day of the year and I truly believe it!!
Route in to London closed this morning (until March, no prior warning!!) therefore epic journey and its wet and cold with 2 weeks til pay day.

It will be sooooo weird. I can't image just counting every penny and being able to go on hols will be amazing!!
