Thanks both! I decided not to do any finance things today, kept focussed on the shopping and cleaning it - haven't done everything, but I *have* done a lot.Tomorrow - definitely some finance concerns, along with t'shopping:- finish cleaning shopping.- pay French income tax (neighbour pushed it through my door, postman sent it to the wrong house).- pay French management company.- I have paperwork from Newcastle BS and Coventry BS - check it through.- paperwork also from cahoot, the firm caused me a lot of problems, and I pushed them quite hard to get scans accepted as sufficient ID. But their letter gave me a 30 day window, which has long gone, of course. So I could draft a letter to them, I doubt I'll send it, but a draft would be good.2023: the year I get to buy a car4

There was a lot of tidying and putting away of shopping, and I've just paid the management company and the French tax people. Woo hoo! I did the French stuff *really* fast, am very happy

Your turn to wear a super smug face!

**huge great smug face**Did a YG survey. I've got the paperwork for Newcastle, Coventry and cahoot by the computer ready to do: its new user names, basically, and probably phone calls too for a password.Going to clean *all* the remaining shopping first, so I can jump in the shower earlyish in the day.

I haven't put my nose over the doorstep yet
terrible sleep, so slept in late, needed a phone call with sis for family stuff, and I'm literally only now settling down to the Coventry and Newcastle stuff. Sigh ... Coventry admin was time sensitive, *and* I've thrown out the sae, so I'll have to phone them ... Newcastle needs a phone call too, it'll reset user id by letter, but not the password as well, which is perfectly reasonable.I tried on the clothes! Keeping one pair of jeans, though I definitely need to lose weight to use them regularly. Lovely Indian kaftan I'm going to salvage material from it, its one nationality my stash doesn't have. And I loved that kaftan! Wardrobe isn't as squished any more.2023: the year I get to buy a car6
