Thursday 4th October – First little Girls’ Birthday

My first little girl is an unbelievable 23 years old today! This is the same little, blond haired, blue eyed little girl who came into my life when she was five, and I adopted her the year after.

She is on holiday from work this week, and she's coming for her birthday tea with us, and by special request, the wife is making her an home made Garfield cake, which was her favourite cake when she was growing up. We've still got the cake mould!

So, it's going to be a good afternoon, a good tea and a good gathering at The House. In fact, the only thing spoiling today is the fact that I've got to go to work again tonight.

I still have the Greek Flu (?) as reported the other day, although I am much better than I was on that first day, but I've still got a wicked chest infection. Hoping to get down the doctors next Monday, which is my next day off for antibiotics and a general review.

We spoke to the new mortgage company yesterday, we've sent the final form back to them today by recorded delivery - and they should get this back Friday or Saturday, allowing for today's postal strike. The funds should be released early next week, the old mortgage company paid off, and then I'll follow that with a paper burning ceremony as I get rid of the Court Repossession Papers. Now, that I am looking forward to!

On the business front, I'm managing to squeeze a couple of hours every day in between everything else to revamp the web site and upload more things to eBay. Total bids on my stuff - having just checked the bids before writing this - is 8 - almost 10% of the total on sale.

Oh, and I've had to reformat the wife's computer again - she found that magical Terminal button. Again. Good job she's running XP on hers, otherwise she'd have lost everything - I AM trying to get her to back her stuff up onto CD once a week, but this hasn't happened for ages!
