Lost in the middle - getting organised and debt free

Marru

Just quickly,

- GPs are gone , I shall miss them. But the good news are that the foster home where my trio went fell in love with them and are going to keep them. My duo is going from another foster home to the rescue tomorrow
- One big load taken to the storage today
- B&B booked for 5 nights, then we have place for couple of nights at friends and then just take things from there.

So much to do tomorrow that I am going to rope the lady that used to clean for me when I was poorly to come and give me a hand. I hope she is around and has time.

Need to go to bed, night night...

Hi there
don't know whether you sorted the problem of what to do with the hedege clippings, but offer them on freecycle/freegle as someone might want them to mulch.

ref the gp's and a cat dilemma. gp's are a lot of work to keep well. cats need some work too, but (and assuming you have an outdoors cat) pretty much just need feeding and a lap in the evenings. Hence they are much lower maintenance.

good luck with the move and the next stage of your debt busting

Oh gosh you are so busy but it sounds very organised. Good luck ok.

I can't believe it but we have done it. Everything is in storage apart from couple of suitcases (and binbag full of washing that is now living in the car until I get hold of a WM this weekend). Old place is cleaned and LLs were very happy so I should get a good reference from them.

We had good night in B&B last night and I even had the energy last night to wrap DDs pressies as it is her 6th birthday today. Looking back 6 years it is unbeliavable how much has happened. She is starting her new school tomorrow. But tonight it is time for cake and pressies.

It is my first day in my new job today and it is all very exciting. There is so much to learn.

However I should learn to keep some cash with me as I am starving and don't know if the canteen accepts cards, off to find out.

Just popped by to say all the best with new job and a very happy birthday to DD. Enjoy the cake!

I am now debating between two houses. I have applied for one that I have only seen from outside (and peeped through the windows ), BF has seen it. But then I saw yesterday another house but despite it is making sense it is not inspiring me. On the other hand priority is to get roof over our heads asap so practicalities should come before any kind of inspiration.

So I have now going to see the house I have applied for tomorrow lunch time and then make up my mind.

I am loving my new job thou so very very pleased that I went through all the hassle go move up here.

House situation is clearing up. Money has been transferred and I am going to go to the agency on Friday to sign the papers and pick up the keys. Man and a van has been lined up for Saturday to get all the stuff out of the storage to the new place.

I was in family court yesterday thanks to ex. No decision was made and now he has to prepare a statement and then I need to prepare a statement. Next hearing is on the same day I need to sit exams so I don't need to go there. They are not going to make any decisions about the case then, only some administrative stuff i.e. after I provide them my new address they will transfer the case to the closest court to me. So in the administrative sitting they then decide when and where is the actual hearing going to be.

Can't wait to be able to settle in to our new place and especially to get online connection in the evenings again.

Well done on the house. I hope the case goes smoothly. I hope the birthday went well. Good luck with revision. You are doing so much Marru. Gosh.

We have moved!!!

So now I live in the middle of a chaos and can't find anything. I managed to make a good start on DD's room yesterday. Hoping to get the kitchen sorted tonight.

Now I really want to go to the Swedish furniture store as I want to get all of DD's stuff organised.

Todo list is not getting much smaller but I have had a good go at it so feeling a bit more positive.

Still not online in the new house so need to chase the provider. But I really need to now concentrate on studying so no distractions for me. And the mess can stay as it is for few more weeks as well.

Well done on moving. So stressful but at least you have a place! You are right to focus on your studying. It will be worthwhile. Good luck dear Marru.
