Caz counts it down

Oh wow, wow, wow - your scores on the doors are amazing. I love hearing how well you and others are doing with your debt busting - it gives me confidence and inspiration. Absolutely brilliant :T

Amazing result! So how much would it take to get that to 50% paid off? Another £250-ish maybe? Fantastic stuff. No wonder your bananas are dancing.

I can see a faint grin on the horizon over Caithness to the west ...... A kinda pink rosy glow , Either Caz is happy, or Dounreay has gone up !

End of Friday, how am I doing with the list?

Friday

• [strike]Scores on the doors [/strike]
• [strike]Bead shop accounts[/strike]
• [strike]Pack and post orders[/strike]
• [strike]On shift for proofreading 7am until 6pm (though won't have work for all of it - currently have two jobs with a deadline of midday)[/strike]
• Take remaining hay bales from trailer down to tack shed
• [strike]Clear out tack shed ready for hay collection[/strike]
• [strike]Get £120 out for hay[/strike]
• [strike]40 minute run[/strike]

Not bad There are only one and a bit bales in the trailer, the unopened one can go on the patio and the boys can have the last couple of slices of the open one in the morning.

List progress:

Friday

• [strike]Take remaining hay bales from trailer down to tack shed[/strike]

Saturday

• [strike]Collect 40 bales of hay[/strike]
• [strike]Weekly shop[/strike]
• [strike]Drop Mr Minx's truck at garage for servicing while he's away next week[/strike]
• [strike]Mr Minx's hire car arriving[/strike]
• [strike]Email weekly report to personal trainer[/strike]
• [strike]21-15-9 handstand progression press-ups and inchworm[/strike]
• [strike]Any last minute washing for Mr Minx[/strike]
• Ironing - started, Mr Minx's shirts done and all the trousers.
• Clean house

Tesco shop was only £45 - the joys of Mr Minx being away for three nights! On the downside, if he wasn't away for those nights I'd have been able to take up the job offer I got through by email this afternoon - the transcription agency wanted to know if I'd be prepared to go to Aberdeen to do a day's live note-taking for a legal firm. The client was prepared to pay travelling expenses, a hotel (because the meeting started at 7.30am) and £20 an hour - even though Aberdeen's five and a half hours away, it would have been worth it, but with no-one to look after the animals, sadly not possible. Never mind, another time.

Darn. But good to know that kind of work is on offer and you are in the frame

Such excellent scores on the doors Caz..brilliant. Well done on all the hard work :j

HI Caz

Good to see everything is still doing so well - really happy for you. Hope you reach your target this year. Its looking on track.

Loving the pic of the droopy lip - I love it when my big girl does that - tells me she can actually relax sometimes lol. She may need a tooth coming out - in a quandry whether to pay or claim on insurance. trying to find out if all the other teeth will end up being excluded if I claim.

Saturday

• Ironing - started.
• Clean house

Sunday

• [strike]Catch up on any outstanding poop-scooping from the previous two days[/strike]
• [strike]Get a head start on packing Monday's orders[/strike]
• [strike]Proofreading shift 5pm to 10pm[/strike]
• [strike]5 x 200m sprints, 2 mins walk between each[/strike] - and running a half marathon is easier!!!!!!!
• [strike]Wave Mr Minx off south until Wednesday night[/strike]
• Finish listing flatbacks - eBay went offline most of the afternoon, so this didn't get done.
• Photograph and list new flatbacks and new cufflinks - got as far as getting the lights set up again after my tabletop studio had to be taken down for the boiler to be fixed.

Jobs that also need doing imminently:

• Plant out remaining salad seedlings
• [strike]Weed vegetable patch[/strike]
• Weed garden (monster job now)
• Shovel old manure onto all weeded beds and borders
• Stain both field shelters and the tack shed - I intended to start this afternoon, I got into my painting clothes, unlocked the ladder from the fence and found a paintbrush, but the wood stain bucket was suspiciously light and when I opened it there was only a dribble left in the bottom, so no point in starting.

LAM - hope she's okay. Be careful with your queries, they'll often exclude even if you don't put a claim in, just because they're now aware the condition exists. We have the equine dentist coming in November, that's £100 I need to put by - unless I get round to re-registering soon, the boys will have had their teeth done twice since mine were last looked at :rotfl:


Right, bedtime. I'm happy with my list progress, I honestly didn't think I'd get that much done this weekend. Hopefully I can get a bit more of the gardening done Monday and Tuesday evenings, it would be nice to surprise Mr Minx with it when he gets home on Wednesday
