Ok great – I have now come up with my ‘house spruce’ plan and budget as follows…
Available resources:
My grandfather (available full time)
Myself (available after business hours)
My mum, dad and brother (available for a few days here and there)
Things I would like to do (prices do not include labour as it is intended above resources will assist and time stated is timeframe, not actual effort):
It certainly has been a busy week so I am going to begin by reflecting on the week that has gone by.
Looking at the action plan I had set for days 6 to 10, plus two days for the weekend actually bringing it to day 12, I am quite happy to say that I am on track and have completed everything I wanted to do thus far.
Even though the numbers just add up and that it all just makes sense to sell up and release myself from the tentacles of debt – sentimentality seems to be a weak point of mine.
I love my beloved house. I bought it 8 years ago – excited as everything was just coming together for my life. I had a good IT job. A nice car. Good friends and family. A good University Degree. I certainly had a lot for a 22 year old.
