    Oh no. Please be gentle with yourself and take care. Much love 
    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 !!

    Yeah, not the best. I fell backwards which is never the best. Mr M got such a fright I haven’t seen him since. Miss S is such a delight and brought me a mouse in the night. Unfortunately I caught a wound from the weekend and it reopened and caught my elbow. 
    I will have to venture into the kitchen at some point to clean up as I left it last night. 
    Happy Friday everyone 😹😹😹

    Need some help. I need to get the adhesive dressings that actually stay stuck on. Can anyone recommend any? The one I had on last night came off and there’s blood on the bedding. 
    Boo.

  • I’m sure if you let a friend know, they would help with the kitchen. It’s dreadful that you were so badly hurt but at least it happened after you had seen ds as I know you don’t like him to be concerned
