Lovely Friday afternoon!!! Can't wait till I can go home:j:j:j!

Right, we did found the handles for the kitchen cupboards, can't order it though as manufacturer is closed today for some reason so that's need to be done tomorrow or Monday but will only take a phone call most likely. Ordered the oven and the fan and agreed that we not ordering any curtain rails as will fit some blinds/plus use some other staff. Plumber and electritian all sorted, I jsut can't wait to finish organizing the house staff and not bothering with it anymore!

No plans for the weekend yet, depends on the weather but I will like to do some mega ebay listings-have so much staff. Also gym is in order, as Missy said in her thread something happened to my mirror cause def the day before yest I could see that my legs were becoming chunky again. Amazing that 2 or 3 pounds can make you look like so fat, not liking it:o.

Ordered jeans on ebay, paid £13 for 3 pairs, hopefully they will all be good. And the dreaded Shred arrived too:o.

Off for meeting with a friend in half an hour,strictly work business , well we can say that anyway. Dinner tonight is tuna-tomato sauce with pasta, than hopefully will watch some relaxing telly, haven't been able to for weeks now!

It sounds like everything is coming together nicely now, that was a hell of a lot crossed off your list .

£13 for 3 pairs of jeans is a bargain! I could definately do with some new clothes (especially undies!) but at the moment it will just have to wait until I can warrant spending the money.

Hope you have a lovely weekend

Thanks,
Yes, it's coming together, can't wait to finish everything and go back to the boring staff. We ordered the kitchen furniture handles, had the lights fixed in the flat and also ordered the curtain rails and blinds. Oh, it's so good not to choose anymore things over the internet:).

Jeans were fab bargains, they were nearly new and because the auctions ended during the week no one bid on them. I already received one pair which fits perfectly, waiting for the other 2 now. Went to Decathlon yesterday which was a disaster, ended up buying new cycling glasses for me and OH and a hulla hoop plus 3 t shirts for £23. Wasn't budgeted for but we needed them. I'm excited about the hula hoop, want to learn to use it:).

Ok, off to the gym now than hopefully for a lovely walk with OH. Have a nice Sunday!

Glorious Monday Morning:D:D,

I feel ok though, one week to go and our awful neighbours are moving out and a nice French family moving in, can't wait!

Diet is back again, I put on 3lbs over the last month or so so started to exercise in the mornings using the dreaded Shred dvd and my brand new hula hoop is really good, I can already feel my waist aching! I need to measure myself as it says that I could lose inches of it:D. Let's see.

Money wise, bought bread and cheese, should be enough for the week, although tmrw I'm going out with the girls for a drink after work to celebrate birthdays, exam results, etc. Can't wait, OH is staying at home, he doesn't fancy going out with girls only.

I still haven't done any ebaying, I must start this week, tons of staff are under the bed!

3 hours to go and work is over!!! (for today)

Well, we discussed the will question yesterday, so we are making one, try the DIY version and if we are really stuck than will go to solicitor. Also looking at life insurance at the moment as we both want the other one be secure in case something happens. OH was very wary when I mentioned both will and life insurance but after a loud argument he could see my point that if either of us dies the other one would be forced to sell up everything to pay back mortgage and loan. A piece of mind for £20 a month for both of us worth it I think. Any input from anyone? Would appreciate!

Nothing new today, off to the pub with my lovely girlies, can't wait!

Gym day today, I really can't wait. Went yesterday as well, I think my bum slowly becomes a size 12 if I don't go often enough to the gym, it's really bad!!!

I need to send off the life insurance paper, and won't bother with will till the weekend, no energy whatsoever. On the good side my salary for this month is a whopping £2300, and I have a babysitting for £40 for tomorrow night so at least I can make my first payment towards the loan and also just build up an emergency saving account. I will only have £2000 but OH will save every month appr. an additional £250 towards it while I put all my salary towards the loans. We shall see, can't wait for making my first overpayment.
