    It’s been over 30 here Beanie…..I’m melting. Forecast lower 20s tomorrow which I’ll quite enjoy but I can’t cope with anything over about 24.

    Dull dismal & we have had rain.
    Finally some money in today to see most of it go out again on Monday. I will pick up my new glasses next week and pay the balance.

    I don't think we ever see aging and its effects coming. Perhaps a good thing.

    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 !!
