Had a mortgage too long - it's going, going, gone!

Just finished reading your diary from the start - it's only taken me 3 days - good job I'm on holiday lol. You're a great time manager - wish I was as good! Good luck with all your plans. Hope the move into your new office runs smoothly. How is your mum doing now?

I am so impatient I would be a nightmare with waiting for planning and others.

Hi Jue :wave:

Wow, I'm honoured and apologies for lots of procrastination posts!

Almost there with the office now, just bits I've forgotten to take (yet another list!). Mum is about the same, but talks about seeing her new Great-Niece or Nephew which is due in the autumn

:rotfl: I've been surprisingly laid back about it..but that's been more about hanging onto money than being willing to spend it!

End of month again :eek: Electric meter reading to do and then off to London and the theatre.

Hopefully the sunshine here is due to stay all day

Better wake DS and get cracking!

Friday again, how did that happen? :eek: Mad busy last 7 days but it's pushed the food shop back and meant a 5 week month was only 4 shops

Show was good yesterday (not a typical musical and reviews were mixed) but for half price tickets and off peak train/travel (DS was £2 for a travelcard) another great day out. No time for a museum though. Spends pushed up with lunch, coffees, interval ice cream.

Long to do list of catching up:
- usual weekend tasks of washing/bins/towels/beds - Done
- write April family birthday cards/insert cash - Done
- get washing on - Done
- empty food waste into composter - Done
- fill dishwasher and put on - Done

All before 9am, pleased with that.

Still to do:
- food shop
- book hair cut and eyebrow thread
- work stuff
- hand washing up
- sort weekend plans (DIY mate here, visit Mum)
- pot up seedlings
- put last weeks washing away that's still on airer :eek:
- housework
- chase architect up (disappointed she's not tried to make contact following my revelation of measurements email) :mad:
- catch up on diaries here (mostly a quick read and run this week - sorry)

Financials:
- bank account checked - paid myself some, more to come when I work it out!
- Inbox £s - up at £4.96
- Qmee - 96p in the pot
- Still got £21 in change to bank and £3 from P!necone to move
- Money shuffle done off to T$B 5% - Reg Saver is in month 7 already

Tea break over - though won't be long until next one at the rate I drink it :rotfl:

debtfreeoneday

I'm there with you on the tea!

Ali-OK

Can't beat a refreshing brew :beer:

45 mins between this and the last one, a deserved reward for tidying the kitchen and doing the hand washing up

Phone calls next..3 to do now! Free calls 24/7..I could be a while!

What did you go see?

Ali-OK

The War of the Worlds - slightly changed from the arena tour for the smaller stage. Some great people seen - Jeff Wayne on stage throughout conducting plus David Essex, Michael Praed, Jimmy Nail, Daniel Bedingfield and a lady from Sugarbabes playing the key characters.

Phone calls made - haircut/eyebrows tomorrow at 9am :eek:, architect coming out late Wednesday to measure/discuss and visited Mum this afternoon rather than tomorrow.

Dishwasher emptied and all put away
Washing from airer put away
Today's washing dried on the line and ready to put away!
Banked the £21 change
Weekend plans sorted with DIYer

Which leaves
- food shop
- work stuff
- housework
- seedlings to pot up
- fuel fill up...getting low

Always tomorrow as a nice free day DIYer here Sunday, must make cake!

And a NSD. Yay for that!

hiddenshadow

Nice. DH has mentioned WOTW, not sure if we'll go (we frequently talk about seeing things but forget to actually book tickets).

I've managed a run, emptied/run the dishwasher, and had a call with family. You're well ahead on week/end productivity!

Ali-OK

Hidden, if it helps, theatrelist dot com was where I got the offer for £69 tickets reduced to £30 until 15th April

Well done on your run - great weather as well. Aside walking the dogs I've neglected the exercise bike and everything else was a need to do - things pile up quickly in a week here :eek:

Hopefully can slow down a bit tomorrow
