24 Days...

So Ste and I went round to our new house last night to get a better idea of size and ask the landlord a few questions.

We also got a KEY! Woop woop! So we can move bits in over the next 3 weeks. The current tenant moves out on 20th Aug so we can technically move in a few days earlier!

EXCITING!!!!!!!!!

25 Days...

So yesterday I took part in "It's a Knockout" in the DOS girls team. It involved throwing myself on an off of soggy giant inflatables. It was FANTASTIC! I had a great time and really enjoyed myself. When I got home I was even feeling energetic enough to do Just Dance on the Wii with Maisie...

OMG the PAIN today is unbearable! There is a strong possibility I have bruised my ribs and hip! It hurts to sit, to stand, to walk.. I am pretty buggered no matter what I do :/

I reckon it's gonna be a few days before I feel human again! Just doping myself up on painkillers and anti inflammatory for now!

I think training needs to be done if I (stupidly) decide to take part next year! It's all for charity though :)

Men...

URGH! Where do I start?

Not a happy bunny. In a foul mood. Be warned.

28 Days...

I am back in track with my diet and I can feel a weight loss already :)

Maisie (Ste's little sister) did a Come Dine With Me night last night and it was AMAZING!

Starter: Ribs
Main: Burger and Potato Salad
Dessert: Hot Chocolate Fudge Cake with Ice Cream

Oh it was GOOD! I was very impressed how well she did for a 9 year old!

I may have gone over a little food wise last night but I am back on track for the weekend and I have been roped into Darlington OS "It's A Knockout" on Sunday. Bouncy castles, water, pain! I think it will be good for burning off calories but I suspect I will be struggling to walk on Monday!

Hopefully my new landlord will be around this weekend as well so we can pop over to the house and get pictures and measurements :) and maybe get our table and chairs over there :)

I have some Smunkees to get done, monies to pay in, clothes to pack for Dogsitting at Ste's next week - its going to be a LONG and BUSY weekend! I CAN'T WAIT :)

29 Days...

Everything is starting to look up for us! Woop woop!

I am back on track with my diet and I walked from Ste's to town today (25 mins) and I plan to walk back again this evening! I am feeling good for doing it :)

Payday on Tuesday which should help me out a little although it's still going to be a tight couple of months :/

Hopefully we will be debt free and happy in our beautiful new home by Christmas!

Still a little sad!

It's a month until we move into our new home, and it feels like years away :( we also need to win the euromillions on Friday - just a million would do us just fine :)

That would solve lots of problems!

As they say you gotta be in it to win it! So *Fingers, toes, eyes, arms and legs crossed* we win!

31 Days...

Today I am having a bad day and it's not even lunchtime :(

Feeling down and stressed out at work! However I am back on the diet band wagon today, and downloaded an app on my phone to help keep track :)

I can't believe PayDay is still a week away :( it's been a LONG month and it's depressing how broke I am.

I have also downloaded an app to help keep track of spending and find out where I am just throwing money away!

Fingers crossed it works!

32 Days...

Wohooooo! We now have our dining room table which is EVEN better than we expected :) we were also super lucky an managed to get 4 chairs made up to match! I should be able to pick them up on Friday (Sam our new landlord is borrowing a van to help move a few bits at the weekend).

Work is actually going well today :) I am staying at Ste's house for the most of this week so we have an extra 10cm to sleep in (my bed appears to be a super small single :/)

We baked chocolate brownie cake yesterday which was DELICIOUS! I ate far too much :P along with last nights (and today's lunch) chicken kebab... Nom Nom Nom!

I have more Smunkee orders which is fab! I have also made a Ruby Wedding anniversary set for someone at work for £35! I will have to get some good pics to go the Facebook page :)

35 days...

We are going to pick up our new dining room table tomorrow and hopefully get some chairs and maybe a bench!

Just discovered I am a Page 10 girl in today's Northern Echo :) I do look a bit silly in fur coat and sunglasses but I DON'T CARE!

I have out one copy on my desk at work and have another copy to maybe frame :P

Anyone want my autograph?!

Still no phone call...

I only have half an hour for lunch and Ste always rings me. I'm sad now. 12 mins late and still no phone call.

36 Days...

Till we move in! I really can't wait! Super excited :)

It's really hard to not buy lots of beautiful things for the house but we have to be good and wait till we are moved in.

The weather is half decent today, ground a little soggy but the sun is out :-)

Just downloaded Spotify for my iPhone (I can't believe I haven't done it before) I now have 300 odd Glee songs :) hehe - I am sad I know.

Just waiting for Stevie Babes to ring me for our daily lunchtime catch up.
He is 7 mins late :(

Only 37 days....

We are going to pick up a dining room table we purchased off eBay this weekend. We don't however have any chairs to go with it :-/ we hope the place were we got the table might have some chairs we can get :)

Whilst eating dinner (Sausages) last night I got bitten 3 TIMES on my leg. Oh how it itches today :( it is so hard not to scratch!

Only 2 hours left of work then I am going to walk to Stevie Babes house and snuggle up and watch a film :)

I love him so much <3 I hope these 37 days go quickly! :o)

Oh guess what?!

THE SUN IS SHINING!!!!! Wohoooo! *fingers crossed* it stays around for a little while. I feel much happier when the sun is out :o)

Byyeeeeeeee

Picture of Bedroom Furniture

This is our bedroom furniture!

Guess what...

I solemnly swear I am up to no good...

Exciting!!!

So Stephen and I have been together for 2 and a half months, and I am the happiest I have ever been :)

We have found a house to move into together in late August and I am SO EXCITED! We have already found and started paying for our beautiful bedroom furniture :)

Pictures to follow....

It probably isn't to everyone's taste but we LOVE IT as it's so unique and as it's a one off set nobody will have the same! We just gotta start saving for the be-a-utiful matching bed!

Looking at my current bedroom I have some serious clutter to ditch before we move in to our new home :) just gotta stop impulse buying because we can :P

I am sure you'll agree that it's very difficult as it's just so much fun!

I believe a trip to Binns is in order to get some super fab kitchen utensils :)

Countdown to move in day...

38 days!!!!

Woop woop!

Off to London!

I rolled out of the wrong side of bed at 4am this morning. Ste got ready immediately while I wandered around in a foul mood because the clothes I planned to wear today were still damp on the airer. Urgh.

The taxi arrived at 4:30am (I was still butt naked doing my hair) and so I got all stressed out rushing around. 4:37am - READY!

Arrived at Darlington Train Station and we sat down to wait. Only when the screen informed us that our train had arrived (even though we couldn't see one) did we realise we were sat at the wrong platform! PANIC!

Luckily we didn't miss the train.

So it's 7:04am we are still on the train, with foul coffee. Mood = better.
