It is sleeting here. Keep getting the odd heavier flurry but it isn't settling.
It has been cold all day here. The heating has been on all day which is very unusual for this house!!5 -

I I enjoyed Gone Girl too - the film also. I then read another of her novels 'Sharp Objects' and was disappointed with it so I haven't tried her latest. Maybe I should give it a go.Your blind sounds lovely - good price too!👍Finally Debt Free! - July 2016 🌟

I have read Gone Girl and seen the film. I enjoyed the film more. For any readers out there I did not find out until recently that my local library rents out e books and e audio books. I have been borrowing several a week over the last few weeks. They are quite new books too and so easy as you can just renew or return online so no need to actually go into the Library.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Debt free Wannabe, Budgeting and Banking and Savings and Investment boards.

Just had an early bath in readiness for the 6pm WW live cook along only to find it’s at 7pm 🤦♀️This is the blind I chose, that’s not my room by the way it’s a photo from the website.

Love the blind, did think that was your living room at first glance. Started the search for somebody to come and gut and refit our bathroom. It’s so desperate to be done, it bugs me when I have a bath as I fed up with the room. It’s only a small bathroom, DH could do it as he used to be a plumber but I would rather a professional came and did it. It would be done probably in a week, everything perfect(hopefully) and more to the point, no swearing.xx:j Debtfree and and staying that way.:j3-6 month emergency fund, No.61 £140.003

Your blind choice is lovely and you have reminded me. we need blinds. 4 in total. It just about came to the top of my to do list last year but then I got ill and a lot of things fell by the way.
I'm after wooden venetian ones though to fit in with the others on the same frontage.
Part of me was putting it off as we have a blind fitter who is lovely but can talk the hind leg off a donkey.3
