Hi KC, hows the painting going!

I can see why you don't want to part with money to a conveyancer if you knwow what you are doing. Thats a decent sum of money.

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

Its one of the things I missed most about the previous place, with the garden rising up from the house, you could never see what was going on .......

Asked for and paid for MG's book today, so we'll see what the postie brings tomorrow I don't have any paid work from now till Monday at 5, for which I consider myself *extremely* lucky, as I'm still just meeting my minimums.

The declutter has been a godsend for me, Taxi, literally - sent by the gods, it becomes more and more liberating. The necessity to carry it on here, even tho I'd already done so much, was a real eye opener as to how much I was still hanging on to. I mean, I *still* am, but much less, if you see what I mean :rotfl:must check out your thread to find out how you are, I'll do that next....

I confess - I haven't done the wall. Doing it after solid sessions like today's, when I'm tired and hungry, it just doesn't work. After a while on here, I'll look at my lists and find something positive to do - its a toss up between little DIY things, cleaning, paperwork or pruning in the garden. Hey ho!

The conveyancer - I think its a bit of a cheek charging me separately, to be honest - I forgot to tell him until a few days before I moved, though I had told him at the very beginning I'd be taking a mortgage out again, but instead of treating it as unfinished business, he lands another fee. Well, he's not going to get it. Ha! :money::money::money:

Hope you sort the conveyancing out. When I re-mortgaged a while ago ( before I learned my lesson) I had terrible trouble as a guy in work was going to do it for me, as he did them all day, but the Building Society insisted on a proper solicitor. Why?? Its standard stuff.

Agree that you *sound* so much happier.

Thanks for that! I do feel more and more like its my house, and that really helps. Tomorrow, I'm definitely going to the local line dancing thing for beginners, its only an hour, 6.30 or so - I can only go fortnightly because of work in London, but I need to find things I like to connect with the place. And believe it or not, line dancing *could* be one of them. At science fiction conventions, there's usually a disco on the Saturday evening, and there's a couple of dances to a couple of songs that are always done with a particular dance (not quite Saturday Night Fever, more Rocky Horror) - and I love those dances, I really do so line dancing could fill that need, tho if they're wearing check neckercloths and stetsons, I'll deffo be out of there quickish :rotfl:

But if it's basques and suspenders, that's you in for the night...

Karmacat

Yep!

At one do, in Blackpool in 1997, I went to the fancy dress competition that precedes the disco in a stripper's outfit from Thailand .... I double-knotted all the laces, believe me :rotfl:

Ug. This post is just to remind me how insane people can be, and how intense that insanity is around money. An old science fiction friend I'd lost contact with has remembered my mobile number and sent me a text like one of those pyramid letters you used to get in the post, telling me dire things if I don't pass it on. How poisonous can a person be!

Just wanted to send this out to the universe - I will not allow myself to be poisoned by this. I've deleted the text, and deleted the person from the phonebook on the mobile.

Live Long And Prosper.
Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations.

Om. Shantih. Amen. As above, so below.

You did the right this hun. I really don't like them at all even though they don't mean anything. We had an old boss once who was not at all supersticious and if we received anything like that she told her to send on to her and she would break the chain - now I am big enough and strong enough to do it myself

Enjoy the socialising!

Karmacat

Thanks for that, Pippajo - I *will* enjoy the socialising - its the dosey-does for me
