What a weird week….

Supermarket shelves are pretty empty at the moment and I’m saying that as someone who shops online. Lots of things unavailable lots of digital shelves are empty and then when the shopping does arrive half the things are substituted with nonsensical replacements. Are blueberry muffins equal to jam doughnuts? Not a chance mate. Did I accept them from the Sainsburys deliver driver even though they are more money and wouldn’t feature in my top 10? Well of course I still have a sweet tooth after all! 

And just to point out in case you have any doubts … its not ‘pingdemic’ (groan) it’s Brexit,. Same as prices going up and everything else thats happening alongside Covid. Yes some is Covid, but let’s be real, Brexit is going to continue fucking us for a long time to come.

The  valuation on the house we were looking to buy came back from the mortgage lender at a hefty 15k less than the offer price (this is after the current occupants refused to go lower then said offer) so they won’t lend us the full amount we asked to borrow. So now I am waiting to see, will then come down to the valuation price or are we going to try and find another mortgage lender and hope they value the house higher. I knew there was a lot of crap to deal with in buying a house but this is one of the things I did not expect and obsess over endlessly. Just goes to show that you do need to obsess over every detail or you get caught in between greed and sensible logic!

So now thats being disputed and we are in limbo waiting to see ….. something!
