Went to Pilates. Was a nice big room and people were well spread out so that went well.
Just nipped to the shop and C0st@ takeout with DD - so I am now enjoying banana pecan loaf.
Have my counselling appointment later.

DS has borrowed £235 - roughly 8 days after he repaid the previous amount... [roll eyes]. This time it is for office equipment he can claim back from the new company. He says he will pay back at payday at the end of the month regardless.
Cleaner is here today which means my house is being transformed... LOL Noisy though...
If I failed to tell the tax people when my company stopped being dormant - can I be fined for that? Do I have to submit two lots of accounts - one for before and one for after?Achieve FIRE/Mortgage Neutrality in 2030

Have you not had to file accounts every year? I suggest you try the cutting tax part of the forum there are lots of very knowledgable people over there.

I rang the tax people. I have longer to file a return - like months longer - hopefully I was therefore panicking over nothing.
Took today off as I had some unrelated bad news about a family member. Life definitely sucks sometimes.
Spookily at the weekend I said to OH that the guttering needed cleaning out - and yesterday someone knocked on and offered to do it for £50. Result! Perfect timing. They are here now doing it. We've lived in this house over a decade and only had the gutters cleaned out once before...
Yesterday I bought some new yellow (ochre) velvety curtains in the sale - £20 reduced from £40. Planning to redecorate shortly and change a few things. Ordered some full price curtains at £60 - ochre, grey and white stripe for another room. Obviously going through a yellow phase!Achieve FIRE/Mortgage Neutrality in 2030
