Watty's Awakening

I have hay that I can swap for horse poo :) No idea what the quality is like, but it is definitely organic (occasionally fertilised and watered by the dog, but poo is picked up daily). I've done half of the orchard and filled a big compost bin. I have the rest of the orchard, the wildflower patch, the veg plot, and the random bit in the middle of the garden to go, so it might do a few meals…

will be over with the horse poop!
WattyDog will bring his favourite rugby ball to play with Stinky who is clearly deprived of decent walks 😀

Stinky is very deprived… he has been 'helping' with the plastering today 🙄

Have, with much help from AI drafted a response re offer. I have counter offered but declined any option of staged payments or being tied to her for those on the basis that an unsecured loan is potentially a liability for me and she lacks grit. AI wrote that very nicely. . I proposed an increased payment but also did offer a contract for services afterwards addressing all the points that she raised in the meeting we had. VNM assures me that after dealing with me for a period of time she will tear contract up - he gives it 3 weeks max 😀
I am now of the opinion having thought about it and drawn a lovely colour mind map that I will sell and live off that money until I access pension pot.
It is a relief to have made a decision, now lets hope I can get this over the finish line. Christmas is the target with the idea that the formal handover will occur during the usually quiet time between Christmas and New Year.

Well done Watty!
I'm sending out Positive Wishes to the Universe that things turn out well. XXXX
I Believe.....
That it isn't always enough, to be forgiven by others.
Sometimes, you have to learn to forgive yourself.
Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery
Today is a gift. That's why it is called the present.

Thank you Chrystal. Those are appreciated x

Oh I do hope it all goes smoothly and simply for you. Don't be disheartened if there are still some bumps in the road though, you know she's a bit scatty so it's not a sign that things are too much effort for you to be able to achieve your next goals soon!

I think there will be some bumps ahead but I am going to focus on the fact I will be able to stop working soon. As WattyDog tried in vain to get me to play football this morning I knew it was the right call. Fingers crossed they agree with my proposal.
