What Preps are you doing this week? Part 10

[Frnc]

Mudane stuff. Stocked up on kitchen roll, bars of soap, tissues, baby wipes, spent £8.
Got the roof fixed yesterday (no charge).
Getting back door fixed today, should be £60.
I get 500g Nescafe Azera delivered in a few days and some other stuff on Amazon Subscribe. Price is creeping up, £20.83, was £15 a year ago. I could get 6 x 90g = 540g for a fraction more, but it's a bit late to change delivery and hardly worth bothering for now.

Tee hee. Tesco bar soap. 20p/125g..... But not for me. They must have noticed when I emptied the shelf at 15p a bar last month. Should last me a year.
25% price increase in a month! B4574rd5!

Kitchen Roll... darn me. That's almost doubled in price even at Home Bargains.

Keep an eye on Tesco, just before Easter. They are still making a song and dance about prices 'locked till Easter'. I.e that's when they shoot up again.

I just got 4 x 125g bars of their plain Pure Soap, was £1.35 less 20 Nectar points. I rarely use kitchen roll so I wasn't concerned about cost, I just got two recycled in paper wrapping. I'm hiding them from the lodgers for now.

Sounds like a long time, although I don't have anything like that amount to back up in one go. I backed up my music recently to an old hard disc, not ssd, and it took about ten minutes. Was only 40 GB though. A quarter of that is Apple Music on sub, so I don't even need a backup actually. I only have 100 GB altogether.

Got fence to complete today. Cup of tea ,then out there. an hour everyday too,cutting and stacking firewood.Yesterday I completed paperwork for my wife in the future. Sorted pension,insurance,savings etc .finally. Updated Will complete now also. ALL DONE, at last! I know that now,ultimately,I have prepped for her security and wellbeing. Best prepping ever. The workshop has been tidied and rubbish cleared. Veg garden is pretty much maintenance free ( raised beds,weed control,etc.) with perennials.

Got a bit of rendering to do, and the now vacant hen house to be dismantled. That’ll all be in the next week,as by then I will be undergoing some serious treatment in hospital,which I have been warned ,will knock me about. So ; Finish this tea, and get a move on!

From me too ... you're doing an amazing amount of work, sorry the next part of the treatment is so serious, I hope you rebound quickly.

My own prepping: absolutely nothing its the last full day of catsitting, and I can confirm that even though I love cats, *really* love them, it was the best decision ever when I decided not have another one, so that I could use what energy I have just for me, days out, travelling etc. And preps too, of course The cat will be picked up about midday tomorrow, and then I'll give myself till Friday evening to get the house sorted out and everything cleaned, then its on with the garden, which I think will be even more important to do over this next year.

Peace of mind is excellent. You know that GeeGee. I have to keep mobile and ‘doing’ too. I spent 6 weeks, in hospital beds or sitting as told. Also put on weight ,and been told to ,in order to take the treatment that’s necessary. I will lose weight there. Anyway,less of that.

Good news today: my wife, who has had cancer before,had to get her right side checked and scanned. She is officially cancer free! Such good news. Tonight,I’ll have a beer when she opens that bottle of fizz in the fridge.
