victory!!

I’ve paid off what was the biggest credit card.

It’s all gone, all done, all finished, cleared!!

The silly card people won’t close it or even put a note on there to close it until the money is cleared. But they can procrastinate all they want and do all the annoying things possible, I’ve won and I don’t owe them anything any more!!!

Hehe!!

Righty ho!

I’m nearly all packed, tomorrow afternoon should see me fully moved into N&S’s spare room, then Saturday morning should see the bulky things and last boxes moved into storage.

A massive massive thank you goes to those who’ve helped me stay sane, be it by helping or keeping me company in some way, or once or twice by getting me out of the house for a breather. All good. Fabrice gets an extra gold star for putting up with tears and frustations, fears and annoyance and staying on the other end of the phone regardless.

Guy’s had his review which confirmed that he’s staying in Bristol.

I’ve packed and weighed in my suitcase for Sunday’s flight to France for my holidays and it’s 20.2kg, leaving me hopeful that 200g is nothing to worry about. I’ll just make sure my hand luggage is under and I can always pull out a couple of T-shirts if need be.
I’m getting way too good at packing cases.
Not as good at boxes. I’ve sorted out less than I needed. I suppose it means I’ll have to sort more when I unpack. The rush of the past few weeks hasn’t given me the time though.

Well, it’s just about bedtime.
I’ve had to say goodnight to my lovely early today and I’m dragging my feet to get up the ladder to sleepy-land. My last night in my loft bed. No-one’s bought it yet. I’m a bit sad about that. But then I suppose it’s what I get for having a big-kid’s bed isn’t it :)

I’m tired…

I’m an aunty, to a small healthy little boy :)

His maman is well too, his papa very proud and his granddad is definitely loosing his marbles.

Dad texted me to tell me I had a new cousin :P

News! This time it is!

Right! Things move onwards at last!

I’ve received the best offer of a place to lodge and have said yes. It’s since then turned out even better and classes as Fabulous! It’s just down the road, the room is big enough, the family is lovely, the rent is better than cheap, and they’ve offered me a place to store anything I don’t sell.
Marvellous!!

I’ll probably move in by end of June though this is to be confirmed.

Fabrice on the other hand has slipped & broken his leg. Now in hospital recovering from Sunday’s operation, he’s sleepy & sounding pretty positive. The consequence though is that there will be no moving things from here to there in July, unless we can make up a new plan for later this summer without involving him. Brain in gear! That’s why I’m glad about being offered storage space.

So God comes up trumps after all methinks. The logic therein of course is His not mine. Once that’s accepted, the fact He’s unchanging & everpresent in mind, it’s chocs away!!

Work’s interesting & keeping me entertained. So far so good.
