Onwards and the debt goes downwards!

lucielle

I know in the scheme of things this isn't a biggie but my cleaner is finishing a the end of March.  I'm gutted she's part of the family.  I'm also thrilled for her as she's going onto bigger and better things.  Not sure what to do going forwards, money towards debt would be good but the thought of having to do everything and nagging everyone to help is draining me already.  
Nearly the weekend, going to be working both days so should get a lot done.

Thanks Beanie.  
I have been so down since October and just felt a great foreboding hanging over me.  DD1 coming home has helped to shift it a bit.  Need to pull myself together.  Booked Gin in for her jabs in 3 weeks time and she'll also get chipped as well.

So Gin has discovered her mojo and nothing is safe, especially mum!!!  Took all of them for a walk at the weekend and bless her she nearly walked the whole way.
It snowed yesterday but had all gone by the afternoon.  DD1 got an early finish so when we got in she'd made tea.  Garlic prawns followed by steak with pepper sauce and homemade oven chips, delish.  Also the fire was lit so everywhere was nice and warm.

Just over 50 parcels on Ebaz (ebay and amazon) so it's slowly picking up.  
Had a telephone appointment with the docs today and got to go for some blood tests and she's referred me to a clinic for further tests just waiting for the letter.  Slightly anxious as she came up with something different to what I thought.  No point worrying until I get some results.

Hopefully off to badders tonight.  Remembered to get the cash to pay for it.

Hope that all is well once you get the tests back - either way it is better to know. I have a cleaner and she is worth every penny - helps keep us sane and functioning. I second Beanie in saying get another one.

6 Bottles of blood they took!  Ruddy vampires and they did my blood pressure 3 times on one arm and twice on the other, thought they were going to drop off.  Also got outpatients appointment for Tuesday morning.  Hope the weather behaves so I can get there.
Funny day, work wise as the accountant was here so I wasn't able use my laptop which has all my work on it.  Got loads to do and feeling quite motivated at the moment so that's good.
Breton chicken for tea.

Ooh hope the tests are OK. Thinking of you

Love the dog pics. Thats one benefit of this new look forum then...

And to echo what Lou says..yes get another one. We didn't and our house is slowly but surely declining into squalor and the pet hair is never ending.....

I find the bp monitors very painful - especially the new electric ones - they seem to clamp down forever! Hope your appointment goes well and you get a good outcome. 
Have you organised a new cleaner yet? It would be top priority for me. I have a bright and shining moment when she has just been and then it descends.... I am one of the worst culprits!
