    Hello lovely taxi lady :hello:

    glad to hear you've cleared another bout of loopy juice & I have to say that jammi days are all the rage now, what with you, Elantan & me today :D.

    Thanks for all your lovely posts over at mine - I find it very humbling how supportive you are of everyone else alongside doing your own battle :A

    Take care of yourself & hope there's a bit more sunshine tomorrow

    I lurve the smell of line dried cloths. Sadly I have to dry things indoors - it's just not the same! Hope yours dried nicely.

    I hope that this round is less harsh for you. Glad to hear about the mass jammie day! I am looking forward to few of those over the next few days while DH and I are away.

    Rest up and enjoy the good weather - apparently we are heading off towers rain (insert roll eyes here!).

    Waving to you.

    Your dedication is awe inspiring Taxi :T

    Most people in your position would probably lose all focus on anything money related. I'm sure it's been good to focus on something other than your illness and you will be rewarded with good health and a mortgage free future :D

    Cuba here you come!!!

    I just keep plodding on as if anything happens then the family won't end up homeless...an if I survive which is fantastic then we'll have plenty of money for holidays etc anyway.

    Do you have life insurance linked to your mortgage?
    I do in case anything happened to me when DS was younger IYSWIM.
