So.
As this is a MSE diary i thought I would do a quick money round up.
Mortgage will be gone in March. May or may not have to pay an exit fee due to the OP's.
Interest free credit card is gone as off last week.
The day to day credit card is fine.
The home improvement loan is ticking over & I need to make a couple more OP's this year to get to where I want to be for the end of the year.
I have achieved a lot this year including the major work to the conservatory.
I have a new cooker & a new to me fridge freezer.
So lots to be very very thankful for.
I need to remind myself of this when I am not feeling at my best & finding things hard.

That is fantastic, well done 🥳 Sometimes we think we’re not doing very well but on looking back over the year find we’ve achieved quite a lot 👏I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)6
