    Just had a few days away with my ever lovely mum.
    We went a wee trip down memory lane.
    Was fab.

    Time to really tighten my belt now in more ways than none.

    Was only 1 degree here this AM. Brrrrrrr.

    My back has gone into spasm & I can hardly move :(
    Bah is all.

    Hoping to go into 17's in December.
    Cannot make any OP's really at the moment but I did increase the standing order very slightly this month as I had a wee standing order finish.

    As they say every little helps....:j:j

    How is the spasm, does it release itself with rest, or do you need it manipulated like me :(:(

    Sending good wishes
    As a dear MSE friend says “keep plodding” or
    What does the saying say.... When life hands you lemons, make lemonade
    Or as my Mum would say, brush yourself down, tomorrow is another day or
    Fake it, to you Make It
