Wednesday ~ Master bedroom
Level Two
Clear and tidy the top of a wardrobe/chest of drawers
Update for today. Not done too bad considering been to the local infirmary this afternoon with DS. He fell off the bed, banged his head and then had a nose bleed.:eek: Thankfully he's fine now but I have treated myself to a bag of jelly babies.:)
Have still been very MS & made chicken pasties from LO chicken for tea & lunch for DH. It's the first time I've made pasties & am quite proud of myself for not wasting LOs.
Can't really finish today's list as I can't safely get up there without DH present so will try and do it at the weekend. I'm not doing the extras this week but I have updated my grocery challenge and will be doing my meal plan tomorrow as I go shopping on Friday.
Hope everyone is having a nice evening. Praying I have a better day tomorrow & DS doesn't have another major bump.TOTAL DEBT £12,212.46/£2000 paid offDebt Free Goal September 2017#106 Emergency Fund £482.53/£10000 -

Well, Flying had been going well, then I got a letter though saying that my landlord hadn't been keeping up the mortgage payments and we're now under threat of repossession. So, the last two days have been spent list writing and house hunting and as a result, I think I've done just a shade more than SFA!!
I'll probably be trying to keep up with the lists but will be going for a far more indepth declutter and clean over the next month or so. Have removed/ignored extras too as most of them fall into categories on my magic tickybox list sheet that I've been compiling.

Or maybe I'm just odd

I have ordered keys online for my filing cabinet (how good is that?) - I found I site in the town where our old friend Flower (remember her?) lives, put in the code off the lock and the keys are on their way. Filing cabinet was a bargain, I got it from round the back of the council offices, by the skips - I did ask;) was £0.00!

Evening all
I have started my Christmas shoppinghave been up into W Yorks for a change.
Been a no fly day unless you count the unloading of the DW. Seen the new baby from next door, he was born almost 2 weeks ago but was kept in hospital with jaundice for the first week. He is very cute and has loads of hair, the SW's were very impressed with him.
Can't believe it's almost Monday already.
Huge hugs to helen and family, I know you'll have the right words for your LO's when the time comes.I'll be thinking of you all.Official Mascot and Chief Cheerleader for the 'Mortgage Free in Three' Gang0 -
