Mortgage Free now aiming for FIRE

Thanks Daisy I agree it is lovely when it happens and I think it will quite a lot here as it is so small and so local.

Had a lovely weekend spending all of Sunday at my sisters after they were here Saturday night. Gymnastics was fun and we stayed for the whole show in the end. Today my sister popped down here as she was going locally and my mum left my phone at hers yesterday. It is nice having my mum here too she is resting now it has been quite full on since she got up.

I did my marketing this morning and would you believe it 2 new followers on Facebook and two emails with queries so that is just so so good. Hopefully this will now take off and it can be our main income for years to come.

The patio still has not had it sand added to it as it keeps raining and I have been busy but it really needs doing. It does need fixing in a few places so I must get some other type of sand for that.

Went to the new neighbours house on Saturday wow it is nice and they are nice too. They are pleased we bought the land next to the road so no road can be built. I spoke to them about how they had covered the other part of the ditch and the person who did it was actually there so I spoke to him. He thinks we can use some soil that is actually lying around next door but I need to ask next doors dad (the guy who did all the plots and main man in the town). I just need to do the email and then get things set in motion. I know it will be more money but I do not need a 2 meter wide and very wonky ditch preventing me to cross my own land lol. We did a little walk through today and it is now quite a big plot due to the extra bit where the road should have been looks like it actually crosses into next door but we go right up to the wines so that is a cool thing to have next door.

Anyway there is now a massive to do list which has to be done so here it does:

Morning I did not get much done yesterday as my sister came for lunch but it was lovely seeing her obviously. I really must get that patio and drive sorted today so everything can go back. My new solar lights are working and look nice I finally found the switch to turn them on. I also ended up with two solar frogs from Lidl yesterday kind of cute kind of not really my thing but DG likes them.

Today it is sunny so I can finally complete that patio we also will meet up with her later at a nursery near hers that is really really nice so I can get a few bits I really need.
