    Hi Buffy
    congrats on the shed! I hope that the reorganising also generated some items to sell or skip?

    good luck with doing your classroom. It seems weird that you have to do so much prep of it yourself.

    oh and have you put out your avon books, chased the driving school and done your PAD? :D

    chev
    I want a job that is less than an hour driving away from my house! Are you listening universe?
  • Done my PAD 10 pounds every day!! Paid Avon but not doing the books till I sort out my tax and go back to work.

    The driving school thing ) am writing to the CC to see if they can get me a refund. If not stroppy letter time. And of course absolutely NO recommandations to all the kids I know.

    Its been a nice few days, had a headache but apart from that work was good (but didn't get paid as much as I thought) saw my friends very good fun.

    got a busy Weekend Mum seems a bit down but said she was just tired. hope she is ok.

    fingers crossed for the 0% card George but havent heard yet. I do have a 0 % on another card so all is not lost.

    Must check the post actually.

    was going to write loads but tired again

  • Well today was a mixed day

    1. Did my padding, 10 pounds
    2. Had a spider in living room, this lead to me cleaning the living room from top to bottom - which really did take all day!
    3. Had a tough conversation with my Mum. it was ok, it was little difficult but I am ok that we talked.

    I have a lot left of my list. must go and make a plan.

    Night all xxxxxxxxxxx

    Hi Buffy, I've only just found your diary so I shall subscribe now.

    You PAD of £10 is a massive amount and will make a huge difference. You keep going coz you're doing great!!

    Did you manage to get your classroom finished? Are you looking forward to the new term?

    Good luck with everything, hope you have a good weekend

    Buffy is a cleaning machine!!!!!!

    What is padding?:confused:
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.
  • PAD= Payment A day !

    I have been paying 10 pounds each day to my CC.

    I am debating what to do. I can go to the market (bus, about an hour) to buy some fabric or I can to high street (20 min walk) to buy some fabric.

    The Market will be cheaper. but it will take most of the day. And everything else I need to get is in the high street.

    hmmmm. toast first then decision.
