I have to keep this as one of my most important goals – how could I not? I need to move because my neighbour is driving me insane day and night and yet…prices have gone up so much since I last looked, and everything I have seen so far has been just plain godawful. I’m feeling really depressed atm. I saw a really nice little house on the internet and finally got an appointment to see it, and it had…no loungeroom. The people living there had used the eating area as a little sitting area, but it was so extremely tiny. I would have to sell my sofa, and get rid of all my books, and try to find a buyer for my retro buffet sideboard. And, having done all that, the place would be too small to really have people over for dinner or even drinks, so I woudn’t be able to achieve another one of my goals. I don’t know what to do any more. Been looking for months.
Or keep my receipts, or something. This is so I can tweak my budget, which in turn, is so I can try to save more money. If I remember, I’ll start on Monday which, coincidentally, will be the first of the month. Poifect.
