    I just logged in. Bless you all. You are so lovely. thank you for thinking of me. Well its been a bit of a rollercoaster but I am back here now. Not sure who will remember me but ...I am back and actually feeling better.


    Not a lot to report. I've sure had my moments lately but struggling/rocking on despite often feeling overwhelmed with just about everything. not much seems to have changed in Watty world but I will start posting again so .... onwards and upwards xx
    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 !!
