Thank youNeverendingDMP said:Yay to time off and winning the raffle. Hope you manage to get everything done today.
I went for frozen turkey crown this year as dh working all Xmas and in-laws/parents not at ours so am thinking pizza and nuggets. Will check if that's defo what the kids want.
I always find that hard if I order online. Never know how big a roast I've ordered when prices change or something has an offer on.
Something to do with being at school when they swapped to metric so learning half of each
Managed to finish all the wrapping so that's good! Definitely hard to know weights when ordering online. It's just hard to visualise the size isn't it.

Hope carol service went well. I didn't know any of the songs, and it was more of a nativity type performance (little jwil was very secretive!!) But it was nice. "If you can dream it, you can do it". Walt Disney1 -
Well a good start to the holidays, I quickly listed little jwil's old bed this afternoon, and it's sold and been collected already. They also took the mattress which I hadn't listed so another thing gone too I wasn't actually expecting it to sell!
All the busy stuff is done now, so I can hopefully chill now!"If you can dream it, you can do it". Walt Disney2 -
That was quick

I've redone my financial spreadsheet for the new year. Looking at my mortgage target spreadsheet, where I've calculated what my balance needs to be every day, I'm £89 over where I need to be to pay my mortgage off at the end of the 10 year fix. That's brilliant news and leaves me a bit of a buffer for when I'm skint.
Today I plan on catching up with the washing, cleaning and tidying through and just chilling. Looking forward to the weather getting milder again!"If you can dream it, you can do it". Walt Disney2 -

Thank you bothteapot2 said:Well done re the mortgage, enjoy the chilling 😀 Just got to keep it up now. A lot can change in 9 years!
I did enjoy chilling with a book and hot water bottle this afternoon. I may have rested my eyes slightly too

That's good news about the overpayments. Especially as any increased ones now are more beneficial with regards to interest further down the line. Bet you are so relieved you got the fix. And nicely timed too it's paid off by the end. We have 14.5.years left on mortgage and hopefully 5 or 6 years left on debts. Nice to see an end in sight isn't itjwil said:I've redone my financial spreadsheet for the new year.
