Tuna has found you all xxxxx have signed up to this thread.
I missed the daily catch ups.
While in my travels this week in our town. I woke up on the floor covered in a quilt outside our old bus station.With a couple of men practicing their first aid! I tripped over a metal peg in the path and head butted the bus station window. Had MOT in Ambulance left with very sore right hand side of body and a cracking headache that lasted for a few days still niggles but.... Hope there is no cctv as I did not fall with style or grace. I can now laugh at the thought of me flying through the air! xx0 -

Happy Saturday folks
Tuna what a terrible thing to happen. Hope you're ok now.
Unbelievably lost another half a pound at WW. I haven't been particularly good this week, apart from all the exercise, and was expecting a gain. Also won on the raffle
Grandkids came today, the baby was a nightmare again, into everything, we looked like we'd been burgled by the time they left. DS and GF have got another house to move into - if you can remember their landlord is selling the house they're in at the moment. The new house has a fabulous big garden for the kids and is right next to the schools, just a few minutes away from where they live now. Really pleased for them.
Mr SA is still suffering with his back and is thinking about going to the doctors next week.
Have emptied out my purse tonight and added to my pot as no plans to spend tomorrow - now got £52.16 in thereI get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)0 -
What a productive day you're having SA! And how lovely the new house sounds. When do they move?I think a bit of sunshine is good for frugal living. (Cranky40)

Sometimes I lose track of time. I guess there are times when we can't see the woods for the trees and unless someone has walked your path its easy to feel alone but there is hope whatever happens. Just believe in your soul because really you have the power.0
