It is 75 days till Christmas from tomorrow.
I am pondering a few things.
1. Next weekend - garden time, coffee with my friends, more garden time, tip run, Garden time means - possible building of rabbit extension and maybe sorting of shed stuff, some of it is an easy GO other stuff needs to sorted into recycling etc. Finally might get the chance to finish the back! gift mum one of my shelf units so I can use my massive boxes in my shed and make space for the hay. Move some stuff out of the conservatory. Possible rabbit operation though might wait a bit...
2. Weekend of Half term, charity shop run, at least twice I have so much stored up. Tidying up of the conservatory, rearrange of the furniture. Might have the rabbit op then too, since will be more indoors to keep an eye.
3. Half term - Financial advisor, gardener, MOT, mum eye appointment, me furniture built, plumber to fix tap, carpet quotes(maybe), bedroom re arrange, rabbit bonding. might try and arrange bloke to come and fix door and possibly window people to look at windows. But I think that is unlikely. Will ask neighbour to help me move the dining table.
4. Last weekend of half term - relax? wander about a tidy house? Enjoy a proper wardrobe?
Then it will be one weekend at home, the following weekend with my Friend and then the weekend away.
After that I am hopeful it will be get ready for Christmas and just be easier to look after the house.

Fyi in case it saves you a charity shop run... the BHF will collect packed boxes of donations - you just print off the label and leave it for the courier.

Oh I don't want to go to work!Do, it was sooooo much easier to just stuff things into a cardboard box, stick a label on it and leave it on the doorstep... none of the fussing about when I can get to the charity shops when they're actually open, parking etc.Hope work went okDebt free May 2016...
