  • Yeah I am ok, had a busy few days, have done some work and some decluttering. I am fairly happy with things. Need to do a bit more this weekend. But its ticking along ok I think.

    Spoke to a couple of people at work and they feel very similar to me but I think I will manage it.

    Hi Buffy, did you get the shoes??

  • Yes Len I did get my shoes and very nice they are too:rotfl: (reduced from 59.99 to 17.99) black patent wedges.

    Todays plan could be expensive...... am going shopping with friends and we will probably have lunch out. I like them obviously but they do like the finer things in life!

    I am quite happily just sitting here not moving.

    Once home from Shopping I have to do three things.

    1. pay Avon (website problems)
    2. Organise my bills again. so lots of filing.
    3. clear two hotspots.


    really need to check out the flylady thread too. I keep forgetting.

    Weekend -
    1. Finish emptying shed and put desk plus old pet cages in there, plus hopefully the bike.....lets hope the shed actually operates on the same principle as the tardis.
    2. Move the furniture around in the conservatory and finally "find" all the e bay stuff. I made a good start on the Conservatory so it shouldn't take long.
    3. Once conservatory is sorted bring down school work to sort through
    4. Then that gives me some breathing space to organise my books and paperwork upstairs.

    then Monday to Thursday am working in a school summer, and I hope to go into work afterwards and paint my furniture for the new term.

    Next week should be the busiest week of my Holidays.

    Hmm. and there is the clock chiming 10. best get a move on

    Have a good day everyone

    That's not too bad at all!!

    I am seriously craving my bed but it'd be ciminal to go to bed now! Am going to take your advice and just chill for a bit! Thankfully I don't have to go to work tomorrow so I'll have a bit of time to myself.

    Am going to watch a bit of War of the Worlds

    Hello Raquela! *waves* I like your name too!x

    ooofa today was a bust! I felt yucky when I woke up SO light headed and then for the rest of day I have felt sick and nothing I have had has made me feel better.

    I did have Scrambled eggs for breakfast and when I was younger they used to make feel sick....hmmm.

    Well all I got done was taking up the manky old carpet in the shed and then it was lots of farming! on facebook. Have done nothing and am really disappointed with myself.

    I wanted to sit down tonight in the conservatory with a glass of wine and some chocolate and look round a tidy house. Instead I am as usual on the sofa with my laptop giving myself back ache trying to surf and watch TV.

    I still fancy wine but all I have is tea! Might have to hunt up some chocolate tho.

    You never know it might be a miracle cure.

    In debt related news I paid 100 pounds off CC1 and 90 off CC 2. still waiting to hear about my new 0% CC............ I also opened a savings account to pay my ten pounds a day (well ok a week!) extras. All of that is for the loan which I will over pay from January.

    orginal debt =15,321- 190 = 15131

    Tomorrow I will post here at 8.30 on my way to emptying the shed!

    I want a job that is less than an hour driving away from my house! Are you listening universe?
  • Sadly the Shed is not a tardis! my wild and crazy plans went fairly well and the shed of doom is done but it wouldn't take everything I wanted it to (however I have a plan and later in the year it damn well will!!)

    Every thing came out of the shed and was arranged on the lawn. It took up a lot of space!

    I then shamfully got my Mum to move the last bit of carpet and some wood(I did the other bits!!) as I had a total fat girl freak out about the spiders which I was convinced were running towards me!

    Then I moved the rest of the stuff, swept it (it looked new!!) and spent a few hours sorting out all the crap, which actually wasn't crap and organised it all into boxes and areas. I am sad but I am SO happy I did it!

    Some of it was hard, going through Dad's tools was weird, made me unhappy but made me happy with the memories (he really would have laughed at me with the broom and my very complicated way of de spidering the wood)

    Tomorrow after work I will come home to sort out the conservatory
    Tuesday I shall go to work and my other work,
    Wednesday I shall go to work too and Thursday it is work and lunch with friends
    Friday hopefully a day at work to finish my classroom(!?) bit of a tall order but we shall see.....

    Then the weekend = Saturday prep for work and Sunday a party (I have to cook, I hope I don't give my friends food poisoning!!)

    Meanwhile debt wise

    The wonderful PAP has got a new challenge - Debt V 100 - my credit card is going down!

    I have rejoined the PAD thread (also CC focussed)

    I paid 10 pounds today

    Also I have joined the FLy lady thread in OS land. I must remember to post and of course do the housework!!

    Now I am going to have a glass of wine!

    see you all later xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
