Caz counts it down

Actually really nice The boys had their rugs off yesterday - the first thing Merlin did was shoot out of the hardstanding area (ignoring his hay!) and go to his favourite muddy rolling spot, naturally :rotfl: I did wonder about putting them on again last night, but they were warm and happy when I fed them at five, so they stayed naked. Fingers crossed that's it for rugs until the fly sheets come out, as it's another sunny, wind-free day. Tomorrow they're going to come up into the top two fields for the day, so Robbie the farrier doesn't have to negotiate the swamp around the hardstanding - whether I'll get them back down the hill again is a different story, I suspect it may involve lots of waving of feed skips!

Bit of proofreading done, bit of typing done, bit of emailing done, about £25 earned, went for a run this afternoon, did some laundry - feeling like I'm not making much progress at the moment.

Amazing how much more work you get done in a day when you ban yourself from looking at Facebook :o:o:o:o Didn't even use Cold Turkey either, all self-control!

Robbie didn't turn up and his mobile was going to answerphone - hope he's okay, as I've just seen in the local paper that there was a two-car crash in his village yesterday. Hopefully it's just a case of my appointment time not making it from text message to diary and I'll get a 'WHOOOPS, sorry!' text tomorrow. The boys have had a lovely day in the top two fields and since the weather's so nice, I've left them up - the gate is open to the lower fields if they want the shelters, which have hay in them.

So, what have I been up to today? Quite a bit of proofreading, packed and posted orders, about 8 minutes of work for Mr RPC replying to emails and sorting out invoices, updated the stock spreadsheet and brought the business accounts up to date. My to-do list is now completely caught up with :T:T

Sounds like summers come early

Wahoooo sounds like a great day and lovely feeling to have everything achieved that you hoped for.

It's Friday

It is indeed Friday and I'm swamped with work, but am flying in to do some scores!

Business
Overdraft: -£-5,180.00 / -£5,090.00 +£90.00

Business total: -£-5,180.00 / -£5,090.00 +£90.00

Personal
Halifax card: -£5,190.00 / -£5,130.00 +£60.00

Personal total: -£5,190.00 / -£5,130.00 +£60.00

Grand total: -£10,370.00 / -£10,220.00 +£150.00

Tantalisingly close to half way there on the overdraft now! I've GOT to get it paid off by May because I don't want to pay another £150 renewal charge, but I'm already starting to allocate money to March's business expenses in YNAB, so I'm nearly at the start of the big push.

So tantalisingly close to 4 figures. It doesn't seem that long ago that the OD itself was at £10k!

Almost below 5k in each of them as well :T. I hope we hit the milestones in 3 consecutive weeks :beer:.

Unlikely, unless I cheat, with the Halifax card currently being paid off at £60 a month Overdraft under £5k is just about possible if I have a good week next week.

Lots of proofreading today - £27.50-worth - and a bit of work for Mr RPC who may well send more through this evening.
