I'm doing 41 things
Well it cost a fortune and took a while but now it’s done and I’m really happy with the result. There’s so much more space (except for the toilet – that’s a bit of a squish). I’m really glad I did it, nothing worse than a sucky bathroom in a long term investment

How I did it: I was fortunate enough to get invited on a business get-away with another division so it didn't even cost me much - only my own spending money. I got Zambia and Zimbabwe, one of the stamps are dated 2009 though (they haven't updated the year on the stamp to 2010 yet) Read how I did it…

Very Happy

The other half of the time I spent making and decorating cardboard boxes to hold all these delectable goodies.I could only supply the effort of individual gift boxes to a select few. However this didn't stop me from making more than enough treats and filling up the tupperware for my colleagues at work.People really love the effort too. I … Read how I did it…

I’m coming up blank right now. So far I’ve recycled every month. But it doesn’t feel like enough. I’ve also replaced some of my old light-fittings and made sure all the new light-bulbs are energy saving cfls. Want to do more but really have no idea where to start
Well I went to my favourite underwear store and they have zero… Nothing in my size… OH well. Will keep looking but looks like I’m not going to make this target until later in the year.
As for the had tools – I needed some new ones for the headboard project so have added two more to my collection – So 9/12 so far. Looking good on this front at least
