Morning KC

I don't know how you keep track of money flying abroad etc. All seems to be going well.

Well, I know I have to send about £3k a year over - I have to think of it as a pension pot. Because of my downsize to this house, the dratted endowment policy, when it matures in a couple of years, will pay off over half of whats then left on the French mortgage, which will make the remaining repayments much easier to manage. The income it provides will never be good, but it was safe and guaranteed, and I have to remember that. And of course when I do retire, I can sell it :j

And as for doing mse stuff at this time - erm, no I'm not it was a payment for stuff I did at the very beginning of August, I'm not quite *that* together.

Anyway, I have my list of stuff to do today - phone calls, heating systems, paperwork, sessions, painting if I can, and a little DIY thing on a door. We'll see how much gets done today - I can't spend hours on the computer like I did yesterday, but that was a real treat, I tell you!

See you later

*morning* - I'm timed indulging at the mo - I get a wee mse fix then need to do some 'focussed' work stuff for a wee while (15 min slots) - then a treat mse again - then work again - bliss.

Goodluck today with your list - I'm just about to write mine.

Hi Fay, I was just about to pop onto your thread. I've done 3 of my 4 phone calls, will give the last one a miss in favour of learning how to work the dishwasher. I like the "timed indulgence" thing - maybe thats what I'm doing right now

I'm just having a few minutes with a cuppa and a chocolate brownie between visits. Its nice when I can go home rather than just sit in the car!

Love the new sig by the way :money:

Karmacat

So do I! Loving the thought of a chocolate brownie and a cuppa coffee even more. I'm not working till 2pm, so I have time for a coffee.......

By the way, I thought my conveyancer was doing the legal work on the new (tiny) remortgage, but I've just found out he'll charge £275 for the privilege - and since I've remortgaged myself about 3 times, I can't quite see the need. Very odd.

great news on the sig and how organised you've become .

Karmacat

Hi Taxi, from yesterday

I feel like I've had a couple of days off all of that, actually, what with reading on here - my desk is a functioning entity, if not the rest of the office, and I've been reading through Memory Girl's thread (yep, another one!), but today I have 3.5 hours of work, fairly compact, but still, bringing me back to earth, and I want to put a final coat of paint on the kitchen wall I'm doing - before I got the white goods in, I put the primer coat on the wall and corner where they are, and it needs one final coat before its respectable. No more living like a student! I'm going to live abundantly, which includes well-painted walls

The other nice thing is that the front and back of my house is a kind of staging post for cat politics - a few cats are either wandering through, or staring at each other with daggers in their eyes its lovely to watch!

Aww our garden is cat central too - it's fascinating!

I keep starting reading Memory Girl's thread but keep getting interrupted after a few pages so I haven't quite got the jist of it

Hope it all goes well today. Newly painted walls are loooovely lol
