    Hello all, just a quick post, not back fully as busy catching up and just well feeling very gloomy as DD has gone home. It's been amazing to have her home and made me realise how much I miss her. It's been lovely to have someone pleasant to say good morning, good night or just generally talk about my day to.

    Hope you are all well x

    PG - despite the weather the wedding was fantastic and created some very happy memories for me and everyone else involved.

    Thanks PG & L for your kindness, I have to say it is very much needed at the moment. Just writing this I am teary eyed, I can't believe how much I am missing her. I went to bed crying last night, silly bat, I just felt so lonely. I just wanted to be able to talk to her and as I've said feel as though someone was interested in my day.

    My debts have gone up slightly this month, to be expected with the wedding and some buy now pay later items caused interest to be added. I'm not going to be down-heartened about it though as they are still £4k less than they were when I started. There are no more bnpl items to be added, so debts should go down from now.

    so busy catching up with housework and workwork that I'm finding I don't have enough hours in the day. I'll be back soon though, I promise.

  • Oh Granny, I am sorry you are so lonely. :grouphug: I will send you some of those dodgy looking hugs but Im sure they wont help much .

    We are all interested in your day, but I know its really not the same as having a real life person to sit and chat to. We love hearing your stories.

    I wish there was something we could do to cheer you up.

    Is DD living far away, I cant remember ? x

  • Oops yes I remember now. Sorry :(

    Do you have skype Granny and a camera on the Pc so that you can see her when you chat ? I know its not the same but we use it all the time with Mr PG and it certainly helped, especially when he is away for months at a time. Im sure you already have one and use it though.

    Take Care Granny x

  • Big hugs from me too Xx

    You aren't a silly old bat, it's only natural you should miss DD. I hope she got home safely and I'm sure she misses you just as much. As PG said, we are all interested in your day too. I missed you when you weren't posting!

    Well done on the 4k reduction too!
