I'm back - at long last! Got an email telling me it was my ten year MSE birthday so thought I should attempt to be more MSE.
So where was I... Sold flat and bought house or should I say money pit with OH which has required quite a lot of work and needs yet more.
Current aim is to work out where we are with the mortgage and to OP a wee bit while doing it up, living a bit and staying sane. Ideally we would like to retire early so need to get rid of mortgage a few years before age 66 or whenever it's due to finish.
DS is still at home and there are a couple of additional furry family members who keep us on our toes. Must get back to being more careful and mindful with my spending.:o
