Any financial updates, beanie?2023: the year I get to buy a car1

No financial updates really.
Less than 50 on CC & currently no OD.
Mortgage is ticking over & I am currently managing to OP 25 a month which is paid by DD as a static amount.
Still no carpet & second coat in bedroom being done as we speak
Doubt will be finished today as light will go very soon. But all progress forward which is good.
Also finally had a handrail fitted at the back door. Hey ho.
My anxiety levels are high & my tolerance is lowI am a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Mortgage Free Wannabe & Local Money Saving Scotland & Disability Money Matters.
