Daring Myself to do this

Trying to organise utilities for the new place is proving great fun. Where its a repossession all the utilities are in arrears so the call handlers go silent and try to put me on hold. The final result is nothing can be done until completion date but i can turn it all on so that's good. Bit of an issue is that I can't clean as there's no hot water as having a bit of a war with BG. But it'll all be great once i find the box with the kettle in lol. Hopefully will get in very soon. Just got to get it cleaned up for my girls. We are approaching the final hurdle now. And we get to see if i can paint. I can paint a portrait in acrylic so we shall see. Haven't worked out what colours to put together. Pink and cream?
I'm not doing my debt busting properly now as i need to get the home safe and liveable first but as mse as possible. Wish me love xxxLoan 1 £5200/£8000
Loan 2 £300/£5800

I feel confident that I'm ready for the move. I need white gloss, cream paint and clingfilm and then i think I'm done. Probably some bleach too but you always need more bleach lol.
I've applied for dd1s school place too. War with bg should be over tomorrow fingers crossed. I think we should be ready to move in on Wednesday. Other people dont believe me but why not? I have 5 days to get on with everything so I think i can paint 2 rooms too.
Need to change my sig as my debt is totally different now. None on credit cards. Just 2 loans between us both.
Hope you're all doing well. Come on come on come on!!! XLoan 1 £5200/£8000

Signature is updated. New totals are for both of us. Copious lists have been written out. I think I'm ready for the move. Still need to buy fire/co2 alarms, secateurs, new locks and clingfilm. One woman on a mission. Got my childcare and I'm raring to go. All very exciting. Getting way too obsessed with grey paint and YouTube how to videos.

Had to laugh at you with the grey paint - OH thinks I would paint every room grey if I could....he's probably right :rotfl:
