Yikes, yes - I thought you were going to be leaping off to Spain *now*! There's still quite a lot to do, then ...
No dream analysis from me, though I *am* irresistibly thinking of sausages in terms of how Top Gear use the term :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

So, I spent the second day of retirement spendidly. Walked up to town - took 1 hr, met friend at pre-arranged spot then it all went belly-up. Had felt rough in morning and it returned with a vengeance - ended up in bed at 2pm with 'eruptions both ends'. Felt really bad the rest of the day and during the night - at one point was seriously wondering if I'd make it to Spain :eek:. But feeling much better today. And I finally managed more steps in a day than MWC :T.
A lot to do today as yesterday was a wash-out, and had some stuff come through for ME so need to get some passport photos done. Off to supermarket photo booth in a bit, then PO, but will take car as feel a bit weak
Bedroom furniture collected last night - I hadn't even moved it out of room & hoovered as I felt so bad, so a bit embarrassed at the state of the carpet & skirting boards, going to hoover round there now then move dressing table from other room in there - and hoover up where that was as well :rotfl:.

Poor thing, hope it stays away.Paid off mortgage nine years early in 2013. Now picking and choosing our work to fit in with the rest of our lives!
Still thrifty though, after all these years:D0 -

So........ I have groin strain - and I'm not even a footballer
on the bright side my leg just gives way as I am walking which is quite amusing really :rotfl: hope I can walk it off as I wanted to go out with the walking group on Tuesday
Plans for today - if groin behaves I'm going to get some veg then walk from there to nearby village which has a market. If it doesn't behave I'll be driving
Shocking night's sleep again - am off the coffee.
Obviously I am not fit enough to be retired :rotfl:A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effortMortgage Balance = £0
