Friday :)

All I can say is thank Crunchie…. 

 

Been such a busy week. I actually started falling asleep on the couch last night at 8pm. I know sometimes I am easily wiped out, but really? 

 

So today I have had a nice afternoon kip, and I can now stay up a bit later. 

 

Not too much planned for this weekend, so I can catch up on the stuff I know I’ve missed out on this week. I owe a few people some reading crits, so I’ll have to catch up with those and then down to some serious editing. Lots to do and just not enough time in the day. 

 

How was everyone’s evening last night? I know we don’t celebrate it as such, but its nice to see all those out there that do. A nice meal and a cake for hubby and an early night for me. Was still up at 5 for work, cleaning my van early on a friday is better. Cleaner water rather than being stuck with the rest of them 🙂 

 

Had a cracking day selling my pasties, pies and sarnies… it finally is picking up from the Xmas slump. yippie… hate it when it goes down, but that is sales for you. 

 

So, off to celebrate my V day. Night all. x x

Short and sweet

I’ve had such a busy couple of days…. 

 

We had the house surveyor out yesterday and then I had my skype meeting with E.J eeek, so tired. 

But, the house was valued at a sucky price. At least my session with E.J went well. 

 

Today we met with a mortgage advisor, eeek. Even more scary. We can have four people on the mortgage, but the house deeds then have to go in our name too. So all four of us will be on it, (cost a couple of hundred quid) but for our future it has to be better. 

 

We think we can get a mortgage over 10 year, was hoping for 15. But, nope. Due to mum and Frank’s age, it won’t be possible. It bumps the payments another few hundred quid, but it is risk it now, while we’re all working, or we sell now. And go our separate ways, which will still work our more expensive in the long run. 

 

So much rides on the next few weeks, and our whole financial workings out. So crap, but so brilliant too. 

 

I’m stressed to the hilt in a good way. I wish something else could pay out… but we can only dream about that… soon I am sure. Very, soon…. 

 

Take care, and hope I can chat more soon.

Weekend :)

Sat night… 

 

It was a wonderful night out with our friends. There were 9 of us, and the restaurant we ate at was nice. Paul was a little disappointed with his choice, but mine was nice, fish lasagne  Totally fishy and different. 🙂 

We went back to their place for a couple of drinks. (Although I was driving) and it was just very pleasant. 

 

Sun, 

 

Carried on with a little bit of editing. Seems there isn’t enough time in the day at all to get on with this at the moment. Although I am really enjoying it. 

 

We went Wrexham to pick up a trailer that we won from Ebay. It was a quick trip and pretty easy to find, although we got lost off a few roundabouts. 

We did see an accident though, some guy took a bend from a 60 zone into a 30, and spun out. I knew he was going to fast, there was no way he would make the bend at the speed he overtook us at. 

Eventful day but we stopped to have our dinner on the way back. Much better food than sat, weird huh. Think we’ll get Paul’s friend to come up this way instead next time. 🙂 

Work today was hard. Think I’m coming down with a cold or something, bones are aching. Which isn’t nice while driving around. I’m editing tonight, so this is only just a quick catch up. 

Thinking of you all though, take care.

Sat is cleaning day :)

I’ve spent most of the day, cleaning, tidying up and routing out all the stuff I need for Wed. All set 🙂 

Now, I am pretty tired so I think it is time for a kip as we’re off out tonight for a friends birthday dinner. Something nice for us to do as a couple for a change. 

 

Tomorrow, I am going to do nothing but read and edit. I have a few crits that I owe out.. this might take me a while 🙂 

 

Busy, busy, but I won’t let anything spoil the next few weeks. 

 

🙂 Have a wonderful sat evening all, and I’ll report more tomorrow, maybe even post a few pictures.

Something BIG is coming…

Eeek. 

 

It is called a mortgage meeting… 

 

I am so scared. It’s time we reworked and sorted out our future. For all four of us. Those that live here, my mum, me, hubby and my mum’s hubby… we have to make sure we can stay and we’re not put at risk. 

 

😦 I am scared, I am nervous. ED is beating me over the head. I am drinking more than I should. 😦 so not good… 

 

I am human, with faults and all. 

 

Love ya…
