Just been catching up on your diary. Sorry to hear you are feeling worse. Hope the next appointment brings hopeful news about treatment that will help.

Tilly, Gallygirl, Shala, newgirly and Lois thank you for your messages.

I'm feeling a lot better. I'm using the plie technique to pick up things and am trying to restrict medication to night time. I may have fell asleep in the sun a few times in the last few days and managed to go for a short walk this evening.

These last 2 days have been wonderful in the sun. I really appreciate them a lot more; watching the apple blossom fall from the trees. Lovely.

A bit of sun does make your mood lift, I hope you are feeling well and have a good day today

Hi newgirly and Shala. I'm feeling a lot better. We had a meal at a friends house last night and I drank a little bit too much wine. I now have a bad head and found it hard to sleep - weird.

£300 whizzed over to the savings account and I need to update the old SOA to see how much more savings I can declare for May. June will be a harder month. I don't know how much lower my wages will be from being off work sick.

I have a real urge to spend money. I'd really like to buy something for the house or to decorate but I should not do anything too strenuous.

Hi Peonie, you have been a bit quiet lately , hope all is ok

Peonie

Hi, sorry I've been quiet. Whilst off work I was hardly on the computer but now I'm back normal services have resumed. I've been catching up on everyone's diaries and should post more often again.

I completed my May SOA and was able to add an additional £65 to the sunny day fund. Only £450 to go. :T Will I hit the target this month? I ruddy well hope so.

On the 3rd of June I OP'd £115.31 off the mortgage taking it down to £144,000. That's £10,000 knocked off the mortgage since we bought this house 2 years ago later this month :T hitting another milestone.

My signature is up-to-date and it now is:
Sunny day fund (12k in 2013) no. 114: £2,966/£3,416, achieved 88%.
MFiT3 no. 86: Reduce mortgage from £146,800 to £125,000.
Mortgage now: June 2013, at £144,000, end date April/May 2036.
Mortgage at its highest: July 2011, at £154,000, end date July 2036.
