  • 4/12 achieved yesterday - three in a row!  Had to put in fuel and do a top-up shop today, so am trying to get other spending out the way also.  Need to pay for next set of tennis lessons for DDs and look for some plastic tubs to keep the kids’ toys organised - I’m sick of them being scattered across every room!  
    Beware of little expenses. A small leak will sink a great ship.
    Debt at highest = £62,842.59 (Dec 2018) - now £41,447.53 (14.07.25)
    Mortgage start Dec 2024 £247,069.59 - now £243,955.28
    Mortgage overpayment total = £300
    Emergency fund £1000/£2000
  • Not today - did the advance booking for a Christmas activity before it sells out! Will have to wait a bit longer for my jumping in leaves emoji ☹️

    I'm still on 1 but taking out some cash to tomorrow for essential groceries. I will also prepay my travel pass. Would that mean I can claim a NSD if I keep within those parameters or am I just fooling myself? Thanks.
    If you have built castles in the air, your work should not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them

    Emergency fund 0/1000
    Buffer fund 0/100

    I don't think you are kidding yourself.
    I don't count food shopping or pertol unless I go over budget or buy rubbish.
