    Thanks for your concern everyone..feeling a bit better today.
    The inhalers are doing their job and I can walk a little on my foot but not fully weight bearing.
    Hopefully it will be even better tomorrow.
    DH had a couple of very tiny wins today so played those through but nothing more.

    On the MSE front I am looking forward to updating sig today as I paid £300 off DHs Halifax card...I paid £1375 off Virgin and I have the staement for DHs BMI card so a bit more to come off..and best of all I have my up to date mortgage figure of £43722.78 so once I take savings off will be very closeto £40k....

    DH was talking earlier about my 50th and also about the slap up meal and champagne we'll be having when debt/mortgage free....

    Just done my sig and am pretty chuffed with myself as it only last week that I was saying can't wait to owe less that £80 k....
    Figures today (for future reference)....03/12/09
    Total debt (inc savings) and incl mortgage......£77431.59

    Total mortgage debt (inc savings)......£40492.78

    So am pretty happy with that and will be interesting to see what it is this time next year.

    Waitinf for £200 to go into DHS account and then I can pay another £200 off virgin.
    Something wrong with my space bar...have to keep pressing it at least twice to make it move.

    Thanks you two...I was quite chuffed with myself.I only wish I could pay that much every month.I'll just do what I can when I can and that's all I can do.
