    Packing today! :) Must. Get. Organised.

    I seem to have no motivation, probably because I have no idea where to start! :o

    Thanks you guys, you're the only ones who ever reply on here!

    Well, I've been busy today! I have:
    - packed lots of stuff - my room is a tip! :rotfl:
    - changed my DDs for my contact lenses
    - changed my address for contact lenses
    - changed address on N£ctar card
    - changed address for the C0op
    - changed address for $tarbucks account :o
    - joined a teaching union which I have meant to get round to for aaaages.
    - chucked LOTS of paperwork (well, actually, burnt it on the fire)
    - sorted out bank things and put lots away

    I'm finally getting motivated to do stuff I've been meaning to do for a while. But hey, better late than never!
