    Hi Pippi!! :wave:

    I'm FINALLY dropping by to say hello - your diary moves soooooo fast its hard to know where to jump in!! I have subscribed and have been reading during the babba's night feeds, you have been keeping me awake and entertained :D

    You are doing brilliantly, I am so impressed with the decluttering mission, and I too pay what I haven't spent on to the debt - yesterday it was £4 for coffee that never happened in a garden centre, so you're not the only strange one ;):p

    Anyway, I'll be off, and will no doubt catch up at approx 2am :eek::p

    Daisy x

    Hello Diasy we're planning our next 'ski adventure' :D - I often wonder how you are. Thanks for popping by its only moving fast cos I'm a blather.

    Sets alarm from 2am and waves at around 3am if you're done by then. :)

    I'd stay up for it but after a house full of teenagers. I'm a bit boogered (a bit like beanie)

    ;)

    How's the tiddler?

    My tiddler leaves home tomorrow late. How did that happen.

    SAAS is mainly sorted. Reminded DS to do his too. :D

    Reviewed DS's graded unit - all about putting algae on roof spaces to create co2 neutral HM fuel - interesting that was too.

    :D its in tomorrow at midnight - I'm sure I'll see it again before it goes. Please note I do nowt but leave wee notes suggesting grammar changes - this is his degree not mine :D and thou shalt not tamper. :D


    Moving updates are thus.


    Rugs wrapped like sausages - gotta love clingfilm (although I've used none for months its handy when moving.

    DD's desk is down and packed up

    DD's last box is open and being added to

    Steamer is out the box and I (found) the head of the hoover that's been missing a while. Is that a safe place then?

    Upright fridge is clean

    Upright freezer is full of seed trays and moved to the 'done' section in the garage.

    Car is full of recycling from DD's party - lets hope the fuzz don't stop us its a tad 'fragrant in there'

    All camper spares are away

    Campervan has a viewer later in week

    BRB is clean, charged and in need of petrol. - TRG is convinced I need to keep him and mow the local 'green' in secret to sait my driving needs.

    :D

    Must do lunch tomorrow.
    Must ring/email movers tomorrow and give them an address but not a firm 'we've got keys date' as we don't have one. But they said they'd store for us free of charge. Of course I asked dear reader. :D

    DD into town and driving nonsense in town. Lets see if she's legal after tomorrow.

    Wee t-party for her tomorrow night

    Fireguard must message lady and drop off/pick up dosh.:T

    Message lady about printer.:T

    Ay up - hope I've understood correctly and that positive, confident, successful vibes are winging their way to DD for any 'testing' times she may be having today....... :D

    Your lists really are epic :D

    I'm finding it easier to get things done on our list that just rely on our efforts, the minute the chore/feat or challenge begins to need other folk to complete, it all goes **ts up :(:rotfl:

    Have a great day, and Cheery is spot on, (((hugs))) for later :D

    Just caught up from the weekend. Sounds like you had a tiring one.

    Well done on all the selling. That's loads of money (and space) you have made. :T

    How big is your family tent Pippi? We have a small 2 man and it's a bit snug for the 4 of us. I'd ideally love one of those with separate bedrooms.

    Yay to TRG treating you to tea. Hope it's yummy
    Goals for February
    Declutter 2/50
    Money Made £0/£200
    Overpayments £0/£200
