This past week has been exhausting!
We have managed to get the two gazebos delivered, and built, just one roof of shingles to complete. Work as ground to a halt due to yet more snow, im absolutely fed up of rain, mud, snow and cold!!!!
So another weeks delay in opening, as still lots of little time consuming jobs to do as well as roof to complete once this latest lousy spell of weather has passed.
On a positive note, ive used some savings to cover a large overpayment meaning today the mortgage balance is £80,900, a massive reduction from £89,671.13 on the first of February , so a reduction of £8771.13 this month !!
If only i could do that every month!
