    Pah! Been absolutely dumped on today with new work - on my last day!! I had managed to tie up all my loose ends over this week all ready to go and leave them with a fabulously organised handover (despite STILL waiting for my pay cheque)

    On the DFW front, had another letter from A&L loans today confirming an arrangement for £1 a month for 3 months. I've not even managed to get to the PO to get my "Muppets" letter off to them. Sure signs of the computers not talking to eachother...

    Had similar generated letter from Halifax CC today, telling me I have missed my minimum payments but also showing me the £1 payments I have made, which is the agreement. Hiiiyaaa!! Another "Muppets" letter on the way! :D

    I'm at work doing this on the sly too ;)

    Should be on my way home now but hanging on to get my cheque! It's £920 worth so I ain't bleeding well leaving til I get it! It's my last day-I wanna go hooommmee!!

    I cannot wait for Monday. A week off and a proper good sort out. I'm hoping to get some areas in my life straightened out. Starting with...

    1. The DEBT FOLDER and my Hiiiyaa!! letters that need doing.
    2. Finish off woodwork painting in living room (this is on EVERY list - do not ignore - no excuses. Masking tape - check. Paint - check. Brush - check. Cat likely to cause mayhem - check.)
    3. Gravel the last bit of garden before the weeds start growing again!
    4. Turn house into photographic studio and take pics of ALL stuff for Ebay. This is going to be a loooooooooooooong job but necessary for my £400 a month target!
    5. Doctors, dentist, plumber, car serviced

    Must also leave room for some fun things too...spreadsheets, snowballs, coloured charts, sitting in my counting house counting up my money! :D
