  • All very quiet in here in general MTG, so I figured I wouldn't post as much if it's only for me.

    Pay day for DH last week and mine tomorrow.

    I hope things are quiet at school too and that their last half term is at least slightly enjoyable!

    Good to hear you have lots of stuff prepared and ready.

    We've just had half term - I'm enjoying holidays more as DD gets better at coping with them so it's harder to say goodbye!

    BOOM - CC1 cleared with payday and now I promise to only use that for food and fuel and to clear it straight away, I'm only using it to gather the points!

    So onwards to CC3 - which isn't used at all, it's just all on interest free so one debt to throw it all at.

    I will get there one day!

    Updated the mortgage figure and it's £100,463.58 - really really hoping that goes under the magic 6 figures next month, I've got a bit to OP against it this month as well, only about £40, but every little bit to get it under that total would be awesome!

    Off to colour in a brick now!

    Ooh, so close! It's painful watching ours go down so slowly (paid a lump at the start of the year so can't overpay anymore!) now, but nice seeing the savings grow.

    Bit hectic in DFOD land, ahead of schedule the littlies have started home ed so it's a bit busy!

    Still busy on surveys and trying to gain some pennies!
