We have torn apart the house and they are not here. We will now visit a shop tomorrow to look for a replacement. I wish things were easy to replace. The positive is that as we were looking we found things to get rid of. One bin bag of clothes going to charity and a bag full ready for the general waste.
I got up at 6am and completed the balloon order. That is a least one job done. It will be collected around 4.30pm and I have agreed to help set up.
Will be heading to DD's club soon and then conference. Setting up balloons and then a night out with DD at the band where we go. They have events to raise money and we like this one. I will be glad when I get into bed tonight.
Next week I need to work on completing the exam work. I have given myself 10 days. That is 10 days of getting up early and marking.
Have a lovely day everyone.
September 2017 Debt = £25330
