Finally earning interest instead of paying it!!!2 -
Today's One Poll offerings included a survey about Irish accents/expressions/outlooks - who commissions these things??? And don't say The Irish, because I'm pretty sure it wasn't!
Anyway, 15 points to go now....
And I've had my wage slip for tomorrow, but still don't know how much my mortgage payment is going to be (also taking place tomorrow) so I can't plan my money shuffles and write up my book of accounts, which is making me antsy 🤣!
And BF has borrowed £900 from me until tomorrow (he also gets paid on the last working day). No idea what that was for 🤔 but next time he complains that I have money sat in savings accounts and don't spend it I shall remind him of how it comes in useful 🙄!Mortgage start: £65,495 (March 2016)

I've decided to leave all my PayPal Ebay sales money in there until payday then I'll top it up to a round number in £25 increments and pay off the mortgage. Got a £75 as a work bonus in an am@zon card so sold that amd with my other sales, I paid £300 off the mortgage!Mortgage start date Dec 2019 - £217,000 MFD Dec 2034
Mortgage currently £163,750 MFD 20304 -
Enjoy the money shuffle, I'm hoping to do mine saturday! @South_coast I actually get paid on 20th of the month (which is stupid) so I could do my shuffle earlier but I prefer to wait until the end of the month!5
