    It's good that your gran is being assessed, but sorry to hear that the dementia has got to that stage already. I hope you can get her out of hospital and give her a good Christmas. Take care xx

  • Hope Gran is home for Xmas and sorry to hear she has Dementia, definitely the right decision to take time out for you and your family. You've worked so hard especially this year and you need a break.

    I'll tell him end of February as my target for next year is to save up as much as I can and get the render done on the house and garage and a new garage door for hubby so I'll keep him on his toes for a wee while longer xx

    Wow what an amazing amount of debt you’ve paid off especially with all the added stresses you’ve had this year. Also well done on the weight loss, no wonder you feel good.

    I hope they get to the bottom of what’s going on with your gran soon. At least she’s safe and being looked after.

    Have a lovely Christmas xx
