    oooh it feels cold tonight brrrr!

    I've been flyladying today and am impressed how its organised me! At work tomorrow so will still do level 1 and maybe aim higher.

    Two jobs to apply for this week

    1. Barnsley PCT
    2. Rotherham mbc

    Those along with flyladying and getting some more stuff packed up for storage while I decorate are my aims for this week :cool:

    Oh and I almost forgot I need to win the lottery as thats the only way I see my debts getting paid off :mad:

    Waiting till after my holiday at end of month, before I can really throw it all at my debts, so understand fully where your coming from. Anyhow your such a determined lady, you will get there and it would proberbly end up seeming quicker than you expected.

    Thinking of giving the allotment up, as cant afford to do that in both time and money, and sort the garden and house out. Think I really need to get my home sorted first, then see about an allotment. Taking an allotment on 2 weeks after moving into a new house, is not the best decision I ever made.

    Right the plasterers are in, they are downstairs doing the dining room right now and later they'll be coming upstairs to finish the bathroom :j

    BF plumbed the new (freecycled-thanks panda) toilet in last night, just the sink to get in and i've a fully functional bathroom again after a weekend of having to use the downstairs loo!

    Will wait until we get back off hols to do the painting and tiling....infact going to post a wanted for tiles and paint on freecycle so I can challenge myself to do as much of it as I can for free! so far its cost me £16 for the bits for the plumbing so so far so good :D
