Lost in the middle - getting organised and debt free

The cross stitch and Wallander didn't happen last night. Instead I was singing to my hears conted doing my "youtube karaoke" thing. Also I researched some aromatherapy stuff so I will be digging out my oil burner and get some oils that might help. If nothing else I love the smells so that alone shold be uplifting. And I found a Bach remedy that should work. See - I am shooting from all angles. Pah to GPs with their narrow minds and beta blockers.
Oh - BF is here, better get my act together and get dressed..."Everything will be alright in the end. If it's not alright, it's not the end."

Ok I am skint - BF doesn't seem to be worried. Definitely belt tightening starting when we come back. I shall collect all the receipts while we are away and I am determined to pay everything back to BF.
So today went to Mr S for final bits that was needed. Unfortunately DD needs pyjama pants (10 for 5.98 :eek:) but they were two packs for 7.-. Also the craft kit I wanted to get her to pass the time on holiday, especially if we hit bad weather, was half price. And then I used my nect@r points so only ended up paying fiver for everything. I have just enough left to pay for the cattery.
I have finally sorted out my clothes (after my move 3 moths ago) so very chuffed. Just need to now sort out the latest clean washing and decide what comes with us and what gets put away. BF and DD have gone to take BF's dogs to his mum and pick up his stuff so I have some peace and quiet here for my pottering. CV has also been sent so fingers crossed about that.
Ooooh - and I got that new smart electricity meter installed today. It is quite scary to see what happens when kettle goes on. Also turning the pc on doubled the usage from what it was with only the fridge and freezer on. They will change my gas meter at some point as well and the same monitor handles then both. I love gadgets like that. :j
All in all I am feeling good, little bit tired but quite normal considering that I had to get up early for the BG engineer."Everything will be alright in the end. If it's not alright, it's not the end."

Sorry me again, yes I know that the name of this diary describes well how I am feeling at the moment but I really would like to start a new diary with a more postive spin. Any ideas for a new name to start 1 September? Only one that I have come up with is Debt and clutter free in 3 years but that is a bit boring."Everything will be alright in the end. If it's not alright, it's not the end."

Aesop - genius, I shall ponder that.

Hello from sunny La Rochelle
Typing with this foreign keyboard is bit of a challenge. Anyway - I passed my June exam, only just but pass is a pass. Back to UK soil on Thu"Everything will be alright in the end. If it's not alright, it's not the end."
