Glad all is well with you, Emz:j. I always get a bit anxious for you when you don't post for a while.
A new car soon, Beanielou:j. How I'd love that! My heap is now 12 years old but sails through its MOT every year with no problems. Only had to replace tyres, an exhaust and battery all the time I've had it. Living in a rural area a car is a lifeline so I can't even think of not having one and on these pot-holed muddy roads (single-track in places) it would upset me to see the state a shiny new one would get into:eek: . It would be lovely though, even if I could only drool at it for just a few days at the start.0 -

Hi CBC
Thanks for worrying about me when I don't post :A. I will try to post more often, even if it's just to say 'I'm okay'.

I have never actually tried this idea (maybe due to a lack of printer last year), but here is my 100 squares grid in an effort to clear my mum's Barclaycard.

And just so I could colour in a square, I have sent £12.37 off to the Barclaycard. Hopefully it will be completely orange soon
(the grid is bigger than what you see in the photo).

I think that the grid is a fabarooni idea :jI am a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Mortgage Free Wannabe & Local Money Saving Scotland & Disability Money Matters.

Morning
Just sat in waiting for my drugs to be delivered at the moment. They are supposed to be here by 12.30 at the latest.
It's Joshua's birthday today, he would have been 8 years old. Can't believe how much time has passed (for those who don't know, Joshua was my first nephew who passed away when he was 18 days old because he was born very prematurely).
We are hoping to go to the cemetery later, but my niece and nephew are both ill at the moment (virus, which my BIL has had too) so I think my mum and I will go on our own as we both don't need to catch that right now.
My mum went for her second endoscopy yesterday and the ulcer has pretty much gone, so she doesn't have to go back there again, which I think she is relieved about (not a nice procedure to have done).

Good news about Mum, so sorry about your nephew big hugs....hope you have a good day today, take care....Focusing on clearing the credit cards in 2018 :T0

My drugs have been delivered and I have just done my first dose. I can't even describe how disgusting it is. It took me an hour to do it just because I was having to work myself up to taking another breath on the thing.
I seriously can't see at the moment how I will get used to it. The only saving grace is it's 28 days on and then 28 days off. But during those 28 days, it's 4 capsules twice a day and each capsule takes at least 3 breaths in until it's empty. So that's 672 times in 28 days that I have to breathe that horrible stuff in.
