    Oh cheery don't be proud. But thanks for the lovely wishes

    I think I made a giant boo boo. (do grown ups say that?)

    I think I paid the extra wages and money to the wrong card.

    An excuse - I was tired.

    I need to wait til the payment processes to see if I paid a huge amount to the card thats actually cleared and have no clue how to get it back to the proper card.

    OK I'm giggling a bit - but feel really silly.

    I know it might get sorted out but seriously - I shoudn't press buttons when I'm tired.

    In better news. - sold strimmer (maybe two) and a campervan awning

    Fixed wood shredder (fuse)
    Finished dresser
    Sorted through metal and non metal bits in garage for camper
    Swept it out
    Took battery out of mower and taking to work to charge (they offered)


    HAD SUCH A STOORY BATH.

    BLEURGH.

    we're getting there.

    Slowly slowly catchy monkey - just not when tired eh?

    :D

    And, another day no food shopping. No anything shopping.

    Go me - who'd have thunk it.

    Aw Beanie thanks! I'm OK now. But I promise I'm going to bed soon:D

    BTW the link you gave me for that house, meant to say we'd popped by to see it too.

    Great minds and all that.

    Was not! Ok was...........:-) was sucked into the USA d with bear gryls, quite an interesting programme, whilst I think I'd maybe do ok, dunno if I'd survive being hungry for long.

    :-)

    Up early and excited for some crazy reason.

    Oh yeah we bought a house :D

    All beginning to feel a bit real now :-)

    I keep counting cushions in the selling listing thing for the new house . I got to over 40 - don't worry she's taken them away.

    And two wood stoves to chop wood for I'm all giddy!

    Meant to say had a big chat/meeting with finance man.

    (I was on the phone)

    Looks like we're good to pay15% deposit and mortgage is for 20 years.

    Can overpay both mortgages by a max of 10% annually.

    Trg wants them paid before he's 60 so we are going to try and focus on overpaying and see how we do with that.

    The next challenge :-) will soon be upon us.

    sold tent last night (£40) dropping that off today with strimmer (30) I hope. Possibly two strimmers. (another 30)

    Ooh if that comes off another £100 to the move.

    This move will be money neutral before you know it. Well done on all the selling/sanding/sorting too.

    Oops to the cards if you did pay the wrong one. You'll have to ask for the money back off one card to pay it off the other one if you have :o never mind we all do silly things and you've got so much to think about. Hope you are resting.
