My Five Year Focused, Frugal and Fun Challenge

StripeyTightsSpottySocks · 2025-04-27 18:04:20

Hello all :) it has been a long time since I posted on here and a lot has changed. I'm now single and bought my new home last year. It needs a lot of work but after the next couple of jobs are done I’m having a break from doing anything else so I can focus on paying the mortgage off. I wouldn’t book any of the people again…

Ah not good about the knee. I fell last week when I was out with the dogs and my ankle is still giving me jip. Hopefully you'll be pain free tomorrow.
What are the 2 things you're thinking of buying for the house?
I've got a list on the go of things I just need to get to finish off the rooms. Not sure when I'll be buying them though.
How annoying about the food!
