We are front door less :eek: I mean we have an alternative entrance we're not that rash :rotfl: but I have just had a thought that it included our postbox. Hmm. Not that we get much post these days but am am expecting some vouchers from my just for points cc :rotfl:
Second floor coming on well, hoping with 2 decent days of weather we might be on to a winner. Next week looking good too :T
Pay day tomorrow. I've taken a leap and merged my 2 budget files (one dating back to 2007) to one. Hoping it will make money shuffling easier. I'll let you know tomorrow
Continuing to use up stuff from freezer, got a small pot of frozen cabbage out to pad out tonight's pie :A0 -

We will be having a postbox but it’s several weeks away
In other news, it’s surprising how the eye can deceive you. The space for the en-suite looks small, but when you actually measure out what we need in there, there is space left! Rather that way round though.
Spent a pleasant hour in a bathroom showroom yesterday. Have us an idea of what we do (and definitely don’t :eek:) want in the room. Very worthwhile work.
Need to get crafting later and make some unit shapes out of some paper. Was going to use newspaper but don’t have any and am obviously not going to buy any for the purpose. Got some cheap brown paper somewhere which is looking positive. At least we can move them around in the space.0 -
All sounding good..well done PF, particularly on thinking what you really do and don’t want so that you don’t waste any money. It’s all a spend that is meaningful.
I am doing some classes but need to get back running. Well done on being so disciplined!
Have a good week PF

Morning all. Just waiting for DH to be paid next week to finish shuffling money. Quiet time in payments out of bank ( not that I'm complaining :rotfl:)
Managed 2 runs in 2 days and pleased with miles in the month so far. Was warm yesterday though for running so must make sure I drink plenty of water today.
Used free cinema codes yesterday to all see t0y story four :T much quieter than going at the weekend.
Heavy rain today so not hopeful bricklayers will be able to do much. They only have 2 days max left. Then on to the next stage :eek:0 -

Great seeing it on the big screen.0 -
Well the good news is that the vouchers from my just for points cc arrived :T and managed to get to us despite the lack of post box
I must remember that they arrive in what looks like a junk mail envelope. Glad I opened it :rotfl: they're stashed to be put towards something. Will likely be something house related, no surprise there
Build still going really well. We're thrilledalso managed to still stick to running, I'm in week 3. Knew it was going to get warm today, so I even got up and ran early :A
DH allegedly got paid today, but it's not hit the account. Last month it was about the 4th of the month. It's like a little guessing game each month :rotfl:
Looking forward to getting out in the garden at the weekend not only for some vitamin D but also to cut some of the jungle back :eek: long may the yellow thing stay in the sky0 -
Glad the build is going well, be all worth it when it is done!DFW (08/08) £64,346.53 Gone (02/19)
