    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.

    How exciting!! Hope they don't keep you hanging on for too long - fingers crossed for you!

    I remember how it felt when we bought our house - offer 1, rejected. Offer 2, made us wait ages then came back saying if we can move quickly (i.e in 8 weeks) then she'd accept. So we did! Offer was accepted 14th October and we moved in 1st December.

    Keep us updated with how you get on!

    8 days until pay day here!

    Still no word on if I have the house (yes I keep checking my emails :P) even though will have heads up Tuesday I still wanna see haha :).

    Cashed out PA for £12 so this will go to holiday funds making it £150. I have £50 to end of month and all I need is petrol and some food so might be able to add £20 to this. Will try aim now to get holiday funds complete for Spain end of this month as when I get paid will add £100 and then I can concentrate on getting £500 for Belfast in July.

    Cashed out VO £10 argos so will try get another one hopefully by next week and hear news ;) xx

    keeping my fingers crossed for you Monz, the house looks lovely. X
    I Believe.....
    That it isn't always enough, to be forgiven by others.
    Sometimes, you have to learn to forgive yourself.

    Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery
    Today is a gift. That's why it is called the present.

    happiness isn't achieved by getting extra things,
    but by getting rid of the things that make you unhappy

    Find out tomorrow of Wednesday about the house. I now have £180 for holiday spending. Get paid on Thursday so will be £280 and hopefully be happy with a new house (or new debt to be lol)

    I went on a date Saturday, we drove to Loch Lomond for a bit and think I am seeing him again Friday (embarrased smile to add here) he is nice :) even got a mail from him when I got home saying he really likes me haha. Its a difference from normal guys I have been going out with... even to point holding my hand walking about lol

    will work on VO. Did the memory 6 week test this morning. Hoping I can stick to it and cash out £50 which will help for Belfast :) xx

    Morning hun,

    Just caught up with your diary.

    Keeping everything crossed that your offer is accepted, that is such a gorgeous house.

    Glad the date went well and love that he messaged you after, that's such a sweet thing to do.

    Have a great day lovely xx
