I hope everyone is well.

Still around, I haven't put anything in the pot recently, but only because I have been managing my money in a different way.

Husband has been putting his coppers in.

Thank you lynnejk for the suggestion of hoovering-might give that a go,at least to get rid of majority of dust.Will still need the polish afterward,but yes,will give that a go.My OH is taking next week off so he can do a bit around the house (which will really help,because before the extension,the garage/kitchen/dining room needed emptying before demolition.All the stuff from those rooms were put throughout the rest of the house,:eek:.I have put all my kitchen-y stuff in the kitchen,but now OH needs to empty all his [STRIKE]junk[/STRIKE] treasure from the front room and 2 bedrooms.THEN I will be able to work on those rooms.
Also,bathroom lino was ripped up to reroute soil pipe for new bathroom (or something like that ).So we ripped that up altogether,and need to buy replacement.Of course,with being away from the house,working full-time (OH),and school hours(me),time is limited.Hopefullt alot will get done next week,then we can move in :T.
Potted £28.52,most of the £30 I earned by doing an extra job over the weekend :j.
Take care everyone,thank you for putting up with my "extension" ramblings-I will have something else to talk about one day,honest ! xx

I'm enjoying reading your extension ramblings Saver-Upper. It reminds me of when DH and I were renovating our old cottage, with 2 small children in tow. It reminds me never to do anything like that again :rotfl: Seriously though, it'll all be worth it in the end. I absolutely love my house and the memories it holds for us all :A

Not to worry about not counting, 32b3, so long as you remain potting you know you'll have that BIG surprise in November as you always have! :dance:

No matter who does the potting, kezbabybabe, you can still rely on some good saving in November! Well done your hubby!

Very well done, parksandrec, you're doing really well just lately so keep it coming!!

Good for you in putting the money from the refund in your pot, Westie, let's face it, we don't miss that sort of cash.

I think I get your drift, MrsShazbat, one very lucky hubby I'm sure you were saying! He most certainly was.

How come our DH's consider our treasures to be junk "surely you don't NEED all that?!" to be rubbish, but not the other way round, Saver-upper?!!
I bet you thoroughly enjoyed ripping the lino up, it's so good to put new down, same with any other flooring. You'll soon have it all sorted out, then you can sit down and admire it all and know all the months of turmoil were soooo worth it.
At least you have room for your pot AND you've still be using it!!!! :j

oooooh lucky you, Chutney, keep your eyes peeled for more!

You hit the nail firmly on the head with your last bit, siju, it all seems so b****y hard at the time, but the memories made whilst going through it all will always be cherished. :smileyhea Keep emptying out that purse....and filling the pot up! :T

A £5er in the pot just for the hell of it.

Get yourselves all ready to lap up a GLORIOUS WEEKEND, SPCers!!!Just don't forget the pots!
