    Awesome target...seems like you might get there !
    Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

    In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!

    Not an NSD, but that was to be expected.

    Got my glasses sorted out so that I can see a bit more clearly.

    Returned socks to £land and I think she refunded me £2 as I bought 4 items but only paid £2.

    Had a lovely coffee with friend. Her dd and my dd chatted away together, and she and I passed the baby between us as he got bored.

    Then dd and I did the charity shops and got a haul. For dd: pippi longstocking dvd, 2 books, a mass of betty spaghetti stuff, bigger roller skates, a dress, a tee shirt, a cap, yet another china doll; for me/house: thermal white black out curtains, a white fleece to use for robin tummies, a book for dh, 2 knitting magazines. All for around £19 :D.

    I started making the next robin, then realised I should be getting ready for tomorow's fair. So, everything was tipped out of storage, to give it a good air. I don't half have a lot of stuff! A few more big price signs were made and it is all re-packed and ready to go. Shame about the forecast... Hopefully enough people will come along and buy things...

    Dd has her dance dress rehearsal, so they'll have to drop me off rather early in order to get there in time. We shall all be out for about 7 or 8 hours, as dd has planned to come to the fair straight after dance, so dh has to come along too! And we'll need plenty of food too - mustn't neglect our tummies...

    School fair is done. Was inside so didn't get wet, but possibly sold less as the activities and stalls were spread all over the site. Anyhow, made 67.50 profit, which is very nice indeed :D. I packed away in such away that it is all ready for next sat, no re-packing needed. And I definitely have less in the storage boxes now - phew.

    Just realised that I should add on £15 to the total - 10 for the table and 5 for dd. So, £82.50.

    Refund from 0v0 + exam expenses + monies made today = all paid off the mortgage. Happy.

    6 more days in work.
    1 governor meeting.
    1 prize giving evening.
    1 sports day (on a day I do not work, so am not going) :D.

    I have challenged a friend to a % weight loss over the next 10 weeks. She is rather competitive, so I need to focus! In the fortnight after my term ends and dd is still at school, I'm hoping to walk a lot and go swimming. But I know it all boils down to the quantity and quality of what I eat, really!

    So, I shall need a plan. A very cunning plan indeed...
