there isn't another course I'd want to do.. and definitely not one that wouldn't entail loads of debt when I left.. this is fully funded etc and I do like the subjects I just cannot cope with the lack of organisation and feeling like I am so insignificant it doesn't matter that I am missed off lists, or have my paperwork lost. I have so many battles I am fighting already I haven't energy for this one.. I could put it off another year but I don't think I'd have it paid for then either so it is now or never, this or nothing..LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -

Piggers - I dont care f you dont want one, you're getting one
Do you think the fact that you are not well and have lost some of your income is what you are hating or do you really hate the subject, you seemed so keen before. Have you upped your iron intake during the course of the problems you've been having as that can make you very tired, still you dont need me to tell you
Well downstairs is done,- everywhere you cant pull any cupboard or piece of furniture out and find anything (ok appliances is a different story but you cant have everything)

Morning ladies!
Jinky -Knitty - nice seeing you over here too!
rosepink - we have a good technique when 'posh' guests visit.. we put everything that doesn't belong in the lounge into a crate and dump it in the office... The kitchen is always tidy and clean as is the bathroom thanks mostly to my OH and home help. I tend to pretty much 'live' in the lounge so makeup and craft stuff and books etc all end up in here. We then sort through the junk when the crate comes back in.
So my lists today are:
Feed the cat at least twice
Brush the cat
Sort and delete 20 emails (they seen to breed if left alone!)
reply to emails
Clean bathroom sink
Spray bleach on the bottoms of the shower curtains
Email R
Fill WM and put on
Ring Dawn
Extras
Hospital appt
take stuff into office for sorting later
finish clearing table
iron best table linenwarm gentleto all who need or want them.

Morning All - I think!
DD and the twins were awake at 4.30 and didn't go back to sleep!
The LR is still upside down so that needs sorting out first. All I really want to do though is go to sleep.
Kazm - fingers crossed everything goes okay today.
Hugs to all

(ETA PS Folks I won't be reading all the posts/thanking etc (basically will be posting list/updates), just not enough time these days......so if anyone wants to ask me anything specific/say anything then best to PM me. Other than that I am wishing you all my best and hope everyone is getting on as well as expected and thanks Pigpen, Soappie, Toots for keeping the thread in order!).
