  • Morning - afternoon my friends ,

    Hope you are all well.

    I've been slowly working my way round the flat.
    Going to do some eBay listing today .
    Going to try and find 30 items to leave the house.
    I also need to do a skip run this week

    My aim is To minimise the amount of stuff we will have in the new house as much as possible.

    I'm sick of 'stuff'
    Eldest has sorted through his stuff. He did well

    Now it's my turn. :p

    Will update you all later on how I get on

    Have a great day !

    Love happiness and peace x

    Morning friends ,
    Was suppose to do my online training this morning and I havent got round to it yet. So will do that this afternoon while I'm waiting for the a$da shop to be delivered. (would normally go to Aldi but I couldn't be bothered :o )

    Got to take DP to out of hours this afternoon I think he has an abscess In his gum

    Eldest is going to cricket this afternoon with my dad.

    I have a killer headache. But I've managed to list ten items on eBay. Will keep going until I have listed my pile (hopefully)

    I need to get petrol today

    Asda cost me nearly £100 :eek: but it will probably last 2 weeks apart from fruit milk and bread . (Here's hoping)

    I have a few appointments I need to change the date of. But I can't until I know what week I am starting my rota on :(
    I also need to update tax credits this week
    I have a long to do list . It's never ending :o

    Will update later with how the rest of today goes

    Sending love hugs peace and happiness to you all

    Hello beautiful diary world

    I hope you have all had a lovely day

    We have set up our buildings and contents insurance on the new property
    Mortgage funds are being released on the 7th. And we should pick up the keys on the tenth

    We have paid the deposit and solicitors fees so I think we just have removals , first mortgage payment (which is higher than our normal payment) and the rent for our months notice to pay and redirection for our post . We should have some money left over we will just continue to add back to that to build our emergency fund.

    I think I'm starring to feel stressed about it all as ive suffered with bad headaches the last few days .

    Oh we also need to get a new sofa when we move . As ours we can't get back out the flat. (long story) .

    On the money side today was a NSD and so was yesterday :j

    Hello my beautiful diary friends ,
    Partner has ordered a take out so we are. Having that while watching a film with the kids tonight.
    I need to pop out and get some milk later. We don't need anything else .

    Yesterday i took the kids to the local splash pad. Met my dad there and he brought chips so we had a picnic too. Also visited nana. Kids stayed at my grandmas last night they always enjoy staying there. Which also meant i got a lie in this morning :)

    I've paid the council tax .
    Also sold 3 items on eBay.

    Will do the rest of my online training tonight and tomorrow.

    Have a good evening everyone
    Xx

    Feel lazy today haven't done much. I have a really bad headache that won't budge :(

    I've packed the eBay parcels ready to post. Early night for me tonight .

    I still have a few things left on my to-do list which I'm going to make sure I do tomorrow.

    We had the meeting at the school so all the forms are now signed ready to transfer the kids .

    So far today is a NSD. Will update later with any changes.

    Oh I tried to be good and hang my washing out and the heavens opened. But it was only for a few minutes so hoping the washing will dry now
