The New Adventures of Fortune

Shortie

Morning Fortune xx

Sounds like you are having a productive day? Hooe your buyer holds true, I think it's rude when people don't show up. Hopefully if they decide not have the item they will have the courtesy of letting you know asap..

We're spending the day sorting the greenhouse. It was here when we bought the house and I've never really utilised it other than a wood store As dusty and mucky a job as it is, it's like a guilt-free shopping trip with all the things I'm discovering in there :rotfl:

Ooh, you've inspired me to get my kitchen back in shape

I am also going to find some items to put on gumtree and do some ironing

I hope you are having a lovely Sunday

Buyer didn't turn up Shortie. I can see that she didn't read the message I sent on Friday until early evening Saturday and it was a few hours later she responded to say she wasn't able to make it over the weekend. She's rearranged for Monday pm and if she cancels or doesn't turn up I'll sell elsewhere. I think it's rude too but you do sometimes get mucked around with FB sales. The sale I made on Saturday was picked up a couple of hours later so it balances things out I suppose.

I've found things in the attic I didn't know I had :rotfl:

Hi DIA

the kitchen does look a lot better for a declutter and a deep clean although it's the room that most needs decorating.

I've put a few more things on FB but the ironing remains untouched

Today has been a wash out in more ways than one. It's been pouring with rain all day and I have come down with a bug

So I have been loafing around all day doing very little

Fortunately we had lunch and supper leftover from yesterday so we have been well fed. Mr F has been having a bit of a clear up in his study and doing a couple of house readying chores :A

I'm feeling more rubbish by the minute so I'm thinking of postponing the photographer. He's due Wednesday but the weather isn't forecast to be great that day and I'm not sure I'll have the physical or mental energy to get things ready in time. I'm feeling stressed just thinking about it. I'll call the Agents tomorrow and talk it through with them.

What a wimp I am. I've never been great with colds and flu. They seem to hit me hard and my energy levels (which are tricky to maintain at the best of times) just dive bomb.

On the positive side, someone has expressed interest in another FB item :T I shall have a bit of a sort out tonight and list anything that hasn't sold on Fleabay.

Poorly Fortune means we haven't spent any of the fun money this weekend either so some extra can be transferred to savings

Hope you're weekend has been more successful

Things have pretty much ground to a standstill this week due to the horrid bug. I've concentrated on making sure Mr F has everything he needs for work and my studies.

It was the 2nd day of my 3 day course on Friday so not something I could miss. Coughed and spluttered all the way through but think at least some stuff has sunk in. I've done some revision this morning and plan to do an hour or two each day. The final teaching input is next Friday morning then a mock exam and the real exam in the afternoon :eek: Despite the bug I am enjoying it and feel as though I've learned loads. It might present some money earning opportunities in the future too.

I demolished an ironing pile but quickly built another with a couple of completed loads of washing.

We've made savings on the fun money again by not having any fun :rotfl: I've not felt up to anything and Mr F's business travels have started up again so no opportunity really. I'm keeping myself entertained by browsing the R1ghtm0ve catalogue :rotfl:

Feeling better today so my plan for tomorrow is to clean all the bedrooms. I'll be re-booking the photographer on Monday so need to get things ready.

Hope you're all having a good weekend.
