Milk and eggs £2.87. WW point 58 (very bad day but within allowances for the week).
OK TYO you are on, earlier would be better. I am sorting out as sale ready one room at a time, this week it will be the bedroom. It needs a scrub, the window cleaning, a tidy and a cheap paper light shade.0 -
Friends 60th birthday, I had to pay for dinner £51 it isn't going that well this week. Still friends, they are more important than the mortgage long game................aren't they? Of course they are!0

Coffee £2.10, WW36. Quiet day but hey ho only two days to the week-end!
I am still in plotting and planning mode, exciting and energising.0 -
Ooo I like the plotting and planning!
Youre on for the race;) - my plan is also tackling bedroom - now needs carpeting , cleaning and painting round the edges!
Have you had yours valued yet or gonna do it once youve prepped it all?
I agree friends are more important than MF-ness but this does get addictive! :rotfl:0 -
Coffee £2.10. Tough stuff at work, can't wait to get to Christmas! Horrid to be wishing my life away. Must stop thinking about work as if I concentrate on myself and the future I feel very positive. One plus was that I spent the whole day thinking that it was Wednesday and only realised that it was Thursday at about 12.30, result.0

2 X clothes rails £15.98. Fruit and veg, £8.10
I am now able to unpack some boxes of clothes as I can hang them up.
Next it will be book shelves and then I will be done and dusted for a while at the house.0 -
Coffee £2.10, salad £3.98. Just keeping on, keeping on. I seem to spend inordinate amounts of time doing figures and working through financial planning.
I painted my flat's TINY hall lat night, bathroom over the next few days. I have booked a handyman to come and do the things I can't manage the second week in July. I have to have everything else done by then so that I don't end up spending money on things that I can well do myself.0 -
Coffee £2.10. There seems to be a possibility that I am going to the opera for a corporate event. I really don't like opera, it goes on too long...........I am not appreciative of the singing, this is not a good use of a Wednesday night. Quelle disastre.
In the real world I am painting the bathroom.0 -
Not really an opera fan either toots, only time I went to one I feel asleep and had to leave early :roftl:! Although I did have flu... Could you take an ipod

Sounds like progress is being made on the flat; and hope that work isn't too difficult. We're in a wait and see period at the minute too, although sounds a lot more stressful in your workplace than mine.Mortgage [STRIKE]16/03/2011: £190K 01/01/2017: £107,729.65 [/STRIKE] 01/07/2017: £95,979.89
