It's extra mortgage payment time. I wish I could do this closer to the beginning of the month but my lack of reserve funds forces me to wait until a later payday, which is today. I paid another $1,386 extra toward the principal. Not as much as I was hoping to do but I already spent my bonus on bills so that's all I have this month. If I stay on schedule I will pay off the mortgage 5 months from now, that will be February. I owe $12,748. That's so low, it doesn't even look like a mortgage anymore. It's more like the amount of a car loan. If I didn't pay any more extra I would pay off the mortgage in 1 year and 10 months.
My job was very annoying today. Some was my fault, other stuff was people looking for someone to blame. I think I had better stick with my plan and not get lax in case I can't take it any more and just quit. If something like that did happen, like quitting or layoff, I would still be able to pay off most of my mortgage if I sold my RV (I estimate I could get $7k), sold my stocks ($3k maybe), and used all of my reserve funds. There is no guarantee that I could even sell the RV so I will keep plodding away and keep my sights set on February.
By the way, it was 100 again today. Will it ever cool down?
