I’ve stripped the bedroom down stairs and hubby has finally put the straps up in the wardrobe and they’ve been painted and the shelf has been put into place woo hoo so I can start putting stuff in it from eldest sons side of the wardrobe .......so I’m half way there to getting rid of their double wardrobe in their room.......don’t worry KK already has plans for the space he wants a mini pool table in there 😂
did this whilst struggling with a pinched nerve in my pelvis. This will teach to not run up sand dunes with KK. In absolute agony but took some painkillers so hopefully we will be ok for tomorrow xxNEXT TARGET: Halifax credit card DEC 22 £0 / £4499.12POAMAYC 2011 £6378.35 POAMAYC 2012 £5000.78POAMAYC 2013 £3480.04 POAMAYC 2014 £4085.14POAMAYC 2015 £7565.24 POAMAYC 2016 £8000.90 POAMAYC 2017 £7278.80 POAMAYC 2018 £13208.18POAMAYC 2019 £13309.28 POAMAYC 2020 £15026.055 -

Morning
waiting on my washing machine to finish so I can hang it up then we need to go to iceland as I need bread, milk and butter.
Pinched nerve is easing a bit gym were great and accommodated my injury thank goodness as I don't want to stop. It's actually sore when I sit down when I'm up and about its just achy.
So after my walk to iceland I need to go to my grans as I have a estate agent coming round to get a home report for the house before I put it up for sale. Need to sort out the linen cupboard as I am donating all the bed linen to a church who help the homeless and I have a lady coming round for all the towels as her child has special needs and loves baths and can have up to 5 a day and she can't keep up with the drying so I said I'm happy for her to have them.
As you can see my savings are over £6k which I'm delighted with. So far I have the following booked
Full House Rewire 5th July £3400
Full replastering of the spare bedroom and living room £750
Restoring and painting my cash iron pipes outside £600
So £4750 so far is required no doubt the electricians will be more as I have a couple of extra things I would like done whilst they are here. I want kitchen lights under my kitchen cupboards. And we are getting LED lighting all round both the rooms ceilings, me and hubby will install the coving. Well no doubt I will haha
I'm going to continue to save as I will need a new carpet for the living room and I thinking of upgrading my radiators in the living room whilst all this work is being done as well thankfully we have a plumber friend so we will get him to measure up the size of radiators we need and get that done as well. Might as well. Plus I'll need to pay a decorator to put up my wallpaper as I am not having him touch it as it's too expensive.......hope he won't be offended lol xx
Oh and we are thinking of booking Florida for next year as it's our oldest son's 16th and he wants to go to Florida so just waiting on a couple of company's getting back to me with some prices and we will take it from there.....gives us plenty of time to get it paid offNEXT TARGET: Halifax credit card DEC 22 £0 / £4499.12POAMAYC 2011 £6378.35 POAMAYC 2012 £5000.78POAMAYC 2013 £3480.04 POAMAYC 2014 £4085.14POAMAYC 2015 £7565.24 POAMAYC 2016 £8000.90 POAMAYC 2017 £7278.80 POAMAYC 2018 £13208.18POAMAYC 2019 £13309.28 POAMAYC 2020 £15026.054 -
