    Yep :D

    Thank you, peeps.

    I've been bobbing about, just keeping my head above water, and paddling frantically to do so. No more. Mortgages paid off, investments soaring, workload cut down. Six months to start the turnaround.

    Being debt free must be such a relief with all it brings and allows you to divert money into another avenue...I can't wait to be debt and mortgage free for the freedom and choice that it can bring to my life.

    Your plans sound great

    It will do, Taxi, but because my income has collapsed, I'm not as "free" as you might think. I'm earning literally half what I did at my peak.

    Just seen the time! Dash into the shower and off on those medical appointments. I'll catch up later.

    Kittikins! I was wondering about you a couple of days ago, how nice to see you!

    Yep, I can be a stroppy little soul when the mood takes me :D I'm presently wondering how far to take that - most my medical things went well today, except that my GP didn't ask for an X ray of my foot, which is actually the most painful thing about the recent lumps and bumps. And the GP I saw today, about the potential skin cancer was. Well, she was a cow. Thats the only way to put it: she told me two or three times that nothing I was telling her was exciting her. I eventually said "I beg your pardon?" fairly loudly (really aggressive, hey :rotfl:) and she realised a little of how insensitive she'd been. She used it again tho, its obviously her phrase.

    Then she told me its difficult to be reassuring without being patronising :eek::eek::eek: maybe for her. Actually, writing it down here has more or less confirmed it for me, I *will* make a complaint, thats appalling behaviour in anyone, let alone an NHS professional.

    So anyway .... at least I don't have skin cancer, though I do have a real smorgasbord of skin conditions, none of them are precursors to anything drastic. Thats a great result, no matter what the doctor was like.
