Just catching up. Glad you are following Drs orders to the letter! And may the sun shine soon!Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

What a lovely day. Plenty of rest and loads of work completed.
Sitting with a glass of fizz by my side.
Happy Days.
Thank you to my wonderful Mr T for the beautiful meal he is making.
