    I am soooo lost without my dishwasher since moving into the new house. I hate washing up. Hate , hate , hate it. I cannot wait for a new kitchen but it'll be 3 years off when we do extension 2.

    How you managing without your kitchen ?
    I can't be bothered updating this anymore
  • Fair play, he's paid, and for the bubble wrap.

    We have been 4 1/2 years with a kitchen where the bit ranged in age from 1950-1980 (and not in a good way!) the kitchen table and chairs are all squashed into another room which also has bin and fridge.

    It is even more chaotic than usual...must ring the kitchen co. and check they got the DW yesterday. x

    Mortgage-free Glee!
    I feel the same, and have to list things all in one big go, or the enthusiasm just leaves me. It means less trips to the post office as well!

  • At first reading I thought you were talking about e baying husbands.... ' I feel the same'.....:D
    Paid off mortgage nine years early in 2013. Now picking and choosing our work to fit in with the rest of our lives!
    Still thrifty though, after all these years:D
  • He he.

    Off to bright lights big city today (!) to get tile sealant, tile edging, and those wooden strips that go under doors, socks for DH and bin bags.

    The original party animal.

    I'm also wallowing in a jobs dilemma. And I lost 2lb.
