Rather Murky Monday

Eileen, you will be pleased to know I found something to do I plastered the a couple of walls in a bathroom for a friend/neighbour they were quoted "£150-180" to skim the walls not replaster from start. I said I would have a go as she is struggling healthwise, and money wise and her lad is just 11. A pretty good job I made as well. Bit of a knack and could not do it for a living however she was more than happy, and I was quite chuffed.

Also did a bit in the back garden a good general tidy round, took Sal a lovely walk too. Weather was very nice later afternoon.

Best luck at the units Eileen.

Hi everyone. I've been at Wrest Park again today, it's a lovely place but a horrible drive!
Let me know how you get of with the Kindle MrsH. I'm sort of tempted but I use the library a lot so get my reading for free. It would be good to save weight sometimes but it might be to expensive an option.
Glad your first day went well Pamela.Kazz,plastering is a real skill- I tried it once and just remember a sequence of 'plaster goes on, plaster falls off, plaster goes back on, plaster falls off, much swearing, repeat lots of times!'

Hope the trip was good Eileen- when will you know for sure that you can move in?
Did you get the planting done Angie ? Did Monty help?
Saw your good news about Jerry Shelley and PP I loveyour puddle pool. Tink - how is the jeep?

Jeep is home! It was a nice drive. I'm glad all went smoothly. The paperwork is official and everything

Eileen waiting for an update..................sometimes I dislike this time difference. I predict good news too.

Hi all, and thanks for the good vibes.wishes!! I should know by the end of the week .... they have to verify all the assets/income I've listed, and it's very very close to the limit, but the manager is sure enough that I'll get in that she did have me sign a lease; will hold my check till verification.

There were 4 units available, but the second I viewed was perfect: the double floor-to-ceiling windows (in effect a glass wall), with southwestern exposure (lots of lights for my houseplants!) and a view overlooking the garden, not the street. On the 5th floor, fairly near the elevators, but that doesn't matter much now as I'm off oxygen in the daytime so don't have to drag that tank behind me!! I'm trying not to get too excited, as it could still fall thru, so please keep the good thoughts coming.

Oodles of paperwork to do, didn't get home till after 5 pm and both of us were too tired to do any boxing/bagging. I'm enjoying a much needed drink now ... after having given Leia her very late afternoon snack!!

Sounds ideal Eileen, totaly perfect. Will you be able to have the unit of your choice when they say yes? which as you can tell I am taking as read......"you're in"

dandysmom · 14-06-2011, 01:51 AM

Oh yes, #513 is being held for me!

We have to go back tomorrow; some of the unending paperwork had to be notatized, and the notary had left by that time ... always something!! I am so nervous I won't get in .......
