    thank you of thinking of me. We've not packed another box for weeks, i'm sick of the whole issue, and have actually needed to get things out which were packed as we've run out of stuff.

    It's not very sunny here today in fact there's a nippy wind a blowing. Only one more day at work then i've got a week off so it can't be too bad.
  • Yay to having a week off to look forward too! x

    Enjoy your week off - I've just had one and to my surprise, actually got things done. Not everything, but some things, including relaxation. :)

    I can well understand you must be fed up with having your things in boxes and living in a sort of state of camping. I can't think of anything creative to relieve the tedium but I hope it all sorts itself out soon.

    miggy the creative stuff that's still ongoing is my knitting, i can keep everything in a carrier or two and keep it semi tidy, though why i'm bothering to keep things tidy with all the mess around is anyone's guess.

    took some more paperwork to the solicitors today and had a lovely lunch out with Mr LT, Knitting circle tomorrow and got to start thinking of things that mr LT and i can do whilst we're off for free.

    definitely need to do the following next week:
    update finances after pay day - highlight of the week
    ring solicitor for an update - she WILL speak to me!
    hairdressers for colour and cut
    ring up to chase about my ppi claim, they've had a lot more than the 10 weeks they said and i could really do with a decision/ the money.
    ring up Credit union to sort out internet banking

    hope everyone has a great weekend

    So sorry to hear that you still haven't moved. But I do like the look of your list. I need to get my hair cut, just can't find the money in the budget this month.
