Oh if only!
Final score:
Essential 11/11
Important 5/6
Desirable 3/8
The reason why the important list kept expanding was because I was trying to get ready for something that I thought was happening tomorrow afternoon, and then discovered it's actually tomorrow morning. But that will give me more time tomorrow afternoon - some of today's desirable items will reappear on tomorrow's list as essential!Starting again 13/4/19Home loan 1: £21,102.50 Home loan 2: £7,698.99Total owed: £28,801.49

Oh yes.
Just the final push before we leave
Things that have to be done today (essential): 1/12
Things that ought to be done today but could be done tomorrow (important): 0/9

My Santandr 123 account has got its cashback today - another £3.53 for the emergency fund. It would have been more if the gas/electric DD had been moved across when I asked, but I'll have to wait for next month for any cashback from that now.

Searched the house looking for bike lights. Found three rear ones and one front one. Went out and bought 2 more front ones to make three pairs. Got home. Realised that although I've got plenty of old lights that work, I don't have fittings to attach them to the bikes. Managed to attach two of the rear ones in a not very orthodox way, but will still have to buy a new pair of front/back just because of the missing fittings. Frustrating!Starting again 13/4/19Home loan 1: £21,102.50 Home loan 2: £7,698.99Total owed: £28,801.49

Interesting idea. I'll have a look in daylight tomorrow morning. I'm not sure it would put them pointing in the right direction - they might point too much downwards and not enough backwards/forwards - but it would be worth a try. Thank you.Starting again 13/4/19Home loan 1: £21,102.50 Home loan 2: £7,698.99Total owed: £28,801.49

Ugh. So much to do. Too chaotic even to make a list... although we do have a packing list. I know I'm going to forget something important. :eek:Starting again 13/4/19Home loan 1: £21,102.50 Home loan 2: £7,698.99Total owed: £28,801.49
