    Sorry to hear you feel unwell again 😩 Sounds like something nasty has cashed in on your immune system being low after the last illness 👎 I hope you feel better for work tomorrow.

    Oh no! It isn't fair, getting another damned lergy when the previous one has barely gone. Either it's that having a bit of a resurgence or it's left your immune system on the low side. Do rest when you're able. Hope you feel better soon.

    2026's challenges: 1) To rebuild our Emergency Fund to at least £5k.
    2) To read 50 books (12/50) 3) The Re-Shrinking of Foxgloves 8.1kg/30kg
    Remember....if you have to put it on a credit card, extend your overdraft or take out a loan to buy whatever it is, you probably can't afford it, as that's not your money, it's somebody else's!

    My EF was seriously depleted 2 years ago for my cat’s teeth cleaning at just over £500 followed by the fridge freezer dying  😱 Only just built it back up again. I am always miscalculating my finances, I get excited then I remember- oh yeah, oh well 🤣

  • Great news that your reduction has been accepted. You will get that EF back up, just time really.
