Hope you all had nice brekkie
I've gone off and helped plant trees this aM AND THEN HAD some time with OH and Ds and now getting head back into that pesky chapter!

Banking etc v tight - paid for all of the garden stuff up front and will have to wait until I've invoiced to get the money back - hey ho
Moved polytunnel bits to a place for pick up by haulier - unfortunately despite our best intentions we can't get it shifted alone (too long)
Ebay stuff sorted for posting tomorrow - all little seedlings doing fine - and everything trying to grow.
Think I'll let these listings finish and concentrate on thesis and then go back to it after I've handed in (about a month to go).
Lots still not done - but slowly getting there - scary though.
Hugs to all - and happy mothers/lasses day to all us lasses (mummies or not)Total debt 26/4/18 <£1925 we were getting there. :beer:
Total debt as of 28/4/19 £7867.38:eek:
minus 112.06 = £7755.32:money:

Oooh, only a month to go Pippi! :j :j Wow - you're Sooooooo close! :T :T
Hooray to moving polytunnel
No special mothers day here(my mum informed me she had croissants in bed - made by herself - and my poor sister (who has 3 boys aged 5 and under) was going to have a lie in until the middle boy's tonsils swelled up and filled his entire throat and they had to take him to hospital :eek: - all ok now though
)
As for me - normal day. Alternatively cheery and glumfeeling creative and also overwhelmed
Keep going though pippi, soooo close! :T :T0 -
Pippi, not long left. Sounds like lots going on there. Hooray to the polytunnel being moved but PAH to having to use a haulier.
Ebay - rubbish I sold 3 things today and made a grand total of £4.42 and one of those things is a really pretty little side table that sold for 99p because my reserve figure didnt work for some reasonOh well, it all adds up and Mr C consoled me by saying that at least somebody is paying us to declutter our house
Slowly does it I guess.
Some days there aren't any trumpets, just lots of dragons. Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, I will try again tomorrow -- Mary Anne Radmacher0 -
hope you've had a good day Pippi and got done what you needed to get done. I've been suffering from the evil witch today, but still met Mr LT at the lottie. He's done lots of hard work and dug a lovely huge bed which is now full of the garlic and onions which have been growing in the greenhouse. sounds like i could have saved myself from doing any watering as it sounds like it's now pouring outside, at least they'll get a nice bedding in.0

We started a new family tradition today and Dad and the girls took me bowling
AND I WON both gamesnot that I am competative at all!! Was a fluke as I got a strike in each game
Did sell some items on ebay and relisted the unsolds again for free... Didnt get a chance to list anymore for free today though..."Aunty C McB-Wik"
"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Chardonnay in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO, What a Ride!"
