    Glad you're on the mend :T.

    Oops - I was supposed to 'ring' you last week :o. The weather was so gloomy though you wouldn't have seen a thing :(. I swear it brightened up during the eclipse rather than got darker :rotfl:.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    It did get a bit darker round here - but as for all that guff about solar electricity going offline - pah! is all I can say :)

    Tilly, you sound a bit better, for sure - hope the improvement continues over the weekend. I know its boring to convalesce, but its better than the alternative :rotfl:

    Hope you are still continuing to improve. Sending love and good wishes for speedy recovery
    Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

    In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!

    Thanks for your lovely messages :)

    Theatre was great on Friday. I had a productive but slow weekend. I'm getting things done each day but slowly.

    If anyone has tried to PM me, my inbox has lots of space now and I've PMd a few people today to catch :)

    I have the washing on the line and once I've sorted that, I'm going to go mad and have a face pack and a bath :eek::T

    I know how to live :rotfl:

    TCB has had money to claim a few times in the last few days. I've made individual claims as soon as they were payable and will OP once they've arrived in the bank.

    DD has been accepted by PC :T

    I've spent an hour in the study sorting paperwork today and that's been good for my brain :)

    I'm off to bring the washing in

    Hello Tilly :hello:

    Isn't it nice to have the energy to get lovely and clean, and not feel exhausted by it! And I have washing out on the line too - I can't help admiring it, which is very odd, but there you go :rotfl:

    Got your pm, thank you :kisses3:
