Hi jellie nice to see you back. glad the move went okay and the date is now set for the wedding. Hope you manage to have a less stressful week too! enjoy the sunshine and make time to relax!

*Jellie*

Hi kayleighpea and savingholmes!
Work still stressy- I really have to learn to handle things better!
Although I'm taking time to relax I only seem to have the energy to slump in front of the tv!
On the plus side I haven't been spending much either. I'm hoping that some of the habits I got into as a DFW have stuck!

Hi Jellie, glad to see that you're back...bit like myself .

Apologies for not posting for ages as myself and OH have been helping out a friend who has had mega serious life issues to sort out...ours pale into insignificance by comparison. Anyway, things have gone from o.k. to totally pants here...OH lost her job towards end of May so things are so tight financially its untrue

Glad you're ok and will try to post more often.

:hello:

Hi Yukkibear and Chris blue. Lovely of you both to drop in.
Sorry to hear OH lost her job Chris. I know you had an idea it was coming but that doesn't make it any less difficult.

I've got a half day today so I'm back to sorting out and decluttering in the new house. Unfortunately I need to go out and buy a couple of vacuum storage bags now as some of my old ones have died! Will have to resist buying other things when I'm out!

Did rather well sorting out bathroom storage as I got a couple of shelving units from tesco. They're not perfect but at least they didn't break the bank.

Must get back into the habit of reading diaries for inspiration again!

Hi jellie glad things are going reasonably well. Can totally relate on the tiredness thing....

Have started looking at more stuff for wedding and potential costs seem to be going up by the day. We are considering a meal at the local restaurant followed by a party at home. Potentially more money but less hassle!

Hi Jellie, sounds like your wedding plans are gatherig pace... good luck. Get the impression as soon as you mention the word "wedding" to any supplier / caterer / business, everyone puts 25% on the price!

*Jellie*

That does seem to be the case Chris. We are regulars at the restaurant and it is their regular party menu so we're lucky there! There is a good choice for each course and we would probably just buy a couple of bottles of house wine for each table with drinks at our place before and after.

How long is it to go now before your wedding?
