    Hi Taxi

    Just caught up on your thread, sorry to hear about the long wait but it is positive he doesn't think anything has spread. Be kind to yourself for the next few days and I think you are right to take some time out and focus on other things.

    Positive thoughts your way x

    2nd debt - MBNA - £6,618.52
    First in many many to go - baby steps and all that!
    First lump sum to go - fingers crossed!

    Just finishing my brew up now ... oops, and I've realised I'm working at 10.30, better get a shift on. Hope you've got a nice day planned, Taxi, I'm sorry the bruises hurt so much yesterday evening. Here's to a good one today.

    Thanks 40 SM....

    This morning I sorted a lot of paperwork out ready to shred/file/recycle ....
    Then decided it was too nice a day to stay in and do housework...LOL

    So decided to nip and fill the car up and went round to see some former neighbours that used to look after my children many years ago.They do not have a car and are getting quite elderly..so took them out to the countryside and a couple of farms and garden centres..they were so happy and it was a nice change for them....and nice company for me and of course we had coffee and ice cream...they also gave me some tomato plants..bless
    Back home and DH had made tea ...bless him...

    I have since washed up...hoovered downstairs.....cleaned the bathroom...put the dogs bed in the wash and am just waiting for that to finish so that I can hang it out on the line..then will rinse the washer through and put the bath mats in and hang them out.

    Have put the recycling in the bag and shredded what needed shredded....

    Then I have a load more jobs to do before JJ comes after school tomorrow....so will either do them later or tomorrow but most likely tomorrow.

    Have remembered to update my sig now and my next loan payment out on the 22nd will see me below £20k..so am pleased with that.

    Forgot to add that I've bought compost and some veg to plant today...don't know whether they'll grow all right but can only try.
