Getting there...slowly!

Sobthe dining room walls need plastering but we have set up our dining room table set and it looks fab!!!

Fingers crossed we will get it sorted soon so this room can be as beautiful as the rest!!

Painting starts on the living room this weekend!

We are in!!!!

Well we have had some hurdles to overcome but we are in the house and have some rooms that are acceptable to live in :P

The bedroom is beautiful! Just have some glossing to finish and some coving to put up and it will be perfect!

The kitchen is pretty good (walls might need some plastering work)...

...and the bathroom just needs a lick of paint, apart from that it's glorious!

So we have some work to do over the next few months but *fingers crossed* we will be in our perfect home in time for Christmas! <3

18 (15 Days)....

I really need to start packing as its only 15 days till we can start moving in! Now I have a car that should help out a lot!

The weather has been pants! :(

Ste and I decided to go for a picnic yesterday afternoon. However we got stuck in thunderstorms and flooding and had to drive home. So we had our picnic in the lounge...

Isn't the picnic basket fab?! That was our Boyes bargain - half price! And it has proper plates and cutlery - none of this substandard plastic rubbish!

Fingers crossed the weather is a little nicer over the next few weeks so we can "Get Lost" using my new smart car app and have a lovely picnic!

I have a NEW CAR!!

So yesterday we went out looking for a new car for me...

And this is what we came back with..

I reckon it's more like half a car, but it's shiny and so cute! He is called Stumpy.

So today Ste and I are going for a picnic :)

Well I was having a good day...

I went for my usual walk at lunchtime, wearing my Titanic hoodie and denim shorts.
Some arse in a white van drove past and shouted "Well your as big as the Titanic"

Then someone at work has complained that my shorts are too short.

Well there's a self esteem hit.

21 (18) Days...

Well they say good things come in three's...

1. New House
2. New Phone
3. Loan approved for NEW CAR!

Woop Woop!

Exciting day for me today!

We had planned to camp this weekend, but due to the weather forecast I think we are gonna give it a miss!

Possibly a cinema trip instead :)

22(19) Days......

Ahhhhhhhhh I'm getting brand new iPhone in less than 3 hours! (Well between 13:31 and 14:31) hehe! I'm so excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have a case for the edge of my iPhone and some funky screen protectors that sound like it will be a mission getting them on correctly!

I actually didn't sleep at all last night....so I suspect the Red Bull will wear off by lunchtime and I will probably be falling asleep by 3pm!!!

*Fingers Crossed* it will be nice and simple to sync my new phone up to iTunes and everything will just work!

I will be too excited to care if it doesn't!

Wooohoooooooo........

23 Days (now actually 20 days!)

So the current tenant is now moving out on 20th Aug so it's now only 20 days till we can move in (although I suspect a gradual move in over two weeks will probably happen)!

Last night was a very productive evening...

Paid off all of Ste's debt, my old contract and ordered a brand spanking new iPhone!!! Wohooooooo! It will be arriving tomorrow - I an so excited I can't wait!!!!

Everything is going so well!
