Thursday/Friday

Thursday - the little kitties seemed a lot better!

I carried on trying to do the tiling - and I have managed the last of the concrete - all that is left is to actually put the tiles in!  The only problem is that it is like a green house in the back porch and I am worried that the adhesive will dry too quickly!

I decided to go and do a 10K run because I've not done any running for ages (Sat 27th on the 10K race).  It was warm and humid out and I really struggled! I decided to take a little short cut home and ended up adding .5k to the distance - so I did 10.5k - in what was probably one of my slowest times ever - so i am really worried for the 10k race I have this Sunday in Totnes!!

Friday - I did very little - although I am constantly looking for decorating ideas for the annex bedroom and bathroom.

Emily got a job! It is a HR apprentice/intern job at Tauntons private school - it is only £16k a year - but HR is something that is really good to get into.  I sat down with them - basically making a plan for saving money.  I've said to them that they have until about February 2019 which is when I want the annex up and running - before then they should go and see a mortgage advisor and see if they could get a mortgage in their situation or if not, what they would have to do.  If they are unable to get a mortgage by Feb or shortly after - then they can rent cheaply and still save.  When I spoke to Andy about this later - he was saying - they could still be here while we have the annex - they'd just need to use our kitchen.  I'm surprised, lol, I thought Andy would be saying - they'll have been here long enough by then! However, he, like me, wants to help them out - and we would not just chuck them out come February - as long as they are working hard and working towards their goals, saving like mad and not pissing us off by then!

Was chatting to Lissa on messenger - she has been having work done on the double garage they have at the end of the garden - turning it into a bar - chill out area and gym - looks like it will be pretty awesome!

Friday night - I made Thai chicken curry - and we left it for later and played pool with Connor and Emily - me and Emily teamed up this time and won the first 4 games hahah - Connor was getting annoyed at playing so badly and Emily did a victory dance in his face everytime we won lol - which probably didn't help - but they eventually pulled it back ad we ended the night at 7 games each!
