Hi everyone, I can't believe it's already time for our first update! Here is the spreadsheet - have a look and let me know if there's anything you'd like me to change.
My own progress is negative right now because I'm tracking savings / investments - let's see how that plays out over the next few years! Thank you all for your updates, and wishing you all the best5 -

Have submitted my July update form - for job security and holiday plan reasons am reducing OPs for the next 6 months so won't be making any more till August now.
Just pleased we can still tick along with our current OPs and hopefully keep on target.
Thanks @julicorn

July update sent.We were showing as behind as I’m paying OPs into a saver, so we will jump later in the year. I did make a £400 OP direct to the mortgage yesterday to get us under £80k, so was pleased this morning to plug in a value starting £79…

Hi @julicorn again no update, still no job sad to say. I have irons in fire so maybe soon, lets see. Thank you.Missions for the rest of the year:-
1) Build up an emergency fund (EF)
2) Improve spending habits.
3) Create a budget that is compatible to me.
4) Buy healthier snacks to avoid junk food splurges.0
