    Debt-free and Proud!
    HI all,

    A luxurious weekend off from work with Hubby this weekend. he did most of the housework whilst I was out with a friend last night so we can enjoy the weekend.

    Tasks to do:
    Tonight - change bedding and wash it. (then go out for Indian meal)
    Tomorrow- hang bedding to dry on radiators, do ironing then enjoy the day (xmas shopping planned :) )
    Sunday - small shop for lunchy food, visit dad, (then go out for a few to our local)

    Can you tell it's payday? ;) Debts all paid off in full and budgets already set.
    Hope you have a lovely weekend xxx

    Good morning, I had a lazy day yesterday therefore I need to get a lot of things done today.

    Rollies
    Set up an email account for the business
    Put ironed clothes away as currently sitting around the living room and bedroom in small piles
    Finish knitting the head for the teddy that I am making
    Catch up with the thread:)

    My small steps for Sunday
    Do 5 loads of washing 3/5
    Iron ds'2 clothes from ironing mountain:)
    Iron dd's clothes from ironing mountain:)
    Do college homework for Monday
    Try to discuss family issues with dh, tried it on Friday and it ended in a row
    Make a roast for dinner:)
    Sort through MSing emails folder and see if there is any work:)
    Check postcode lottery & birthday bingo:)
    Sort out paperwork from April (I have a massive backlog to work through)
    Catch up with thread:)
    Update income book and update challenge:)
    Sort through tester paperwork and schedule what needs to be done:)
    Sort diary for next week:)
  • Well, I brought the basket down from the spare bedroom but it wasn't as straightforward as I thought, due to it containing lots of paperwork which is a bit borderline as to whether it's ok to shred - it definitely needs looking at properly, and I think it's there from when I had a sort-out a while back.

    So.... the plan is , dump the old college notes, which will then release a nice lever-arch file to put this paperwork into, then I can sort it into dividers/categories. At least it's a step in the right direction!
