Out with the old and in with the new

I`ve come to the conclusion that this year will be a year of getting rid of the old and bringing in the new.....

So this year i`m actually saving my pennies....I`m debt free now and got rid of those nasty credit cards....They can be such a burden once you have them..Never am I going down that path again....They are too handy!!!!!

Now that the slate is clean theoretically I should be able to save....On paper anyway..lol

For quite some time I have been wanting to upgrade in the furniture department...The kids are now old enough to appreciate their surroundings so I feel it`s a good time to start throwing out old furniture and replacing it with the more modern, up beat, today`s type of furniture....

I`ve been slowly buying bits and pieces for our lounge room like ottomans (foot rests) and a new 12 cube shelf for storage.....I must start downsizing....With all the nic nacs ect it really is getting out of hand...Plus it will cut down the dusting and I am definitely not one who likes dusting..In fact I loathe it....

I`ve chosen black and white for my colour scheme in the lounge room...Safe colours that are easily available....Plus black is so much easier to keep clean.....White on the other hand, well the kids will just have to be careful otherwise they`ll have a rampant mother...lol

One month in and touch wood everything is going along tp plan....Let`s see how it goes further down the track....
