Dogbooks' Diary to be Mortgage Free!

Dogbooks

So today I found out how much my bonus is from work- £945 for the year! :j I have never received a bonus from working before so super excited. Apparently they will backdate it from April so June's pay packet should look pretty exciting! Celebrating with a large glass of white wine tonight!

Ended up giving the doors ANOTHER coat of gloss tonight- my perfectionism got in the way and there were a few touch ups needed. OH scrubbed the walls down with sugarsoap ready for some possible painting tomorrow when he finishes work.

I've taken tomorrow off work- I have a meeting with the trustees for a charity I volunteer for in the afternoon and can pack in the morning

Hope you enjoyed the wine. That's a corker of a bonus.

Thank you- work had a restructure last year so ended up doing a lot of work outside my job role. Was really nice to receive the recognition and so excited for the payday!

I haven't been on here for a few days as we've moved house! The move went pretty smoothly but I went back to work the next day. Then had a manic weekend travelling to a wedding reception and meeting with family today. Looking forward to getting on with some house tasks next weekend as I'm then booked every Saturday til August!

Now I'm in I'm itching to make some OPs- awaiting the bills to all be confirmed before making a SOA and seeing how much we can save. This month is looking pretty good- still have about £700 in my current account so hoping for as many NSD's as possible in the meantime- should be able to carry across at least £500. Now I need to decide whether to add to my EF account or make a decent mortgage OP!
