Urgh, so sorry to hear you're still feeling rough. I'd be trying to just keep munching healthy things to keep the body ticking over, even if it's relatively light stuff xx2

Little and often for the food I think! I hate that horrible grey area where you feel fine if you stay home and feel guilty about it but terrible if you work and wish you'd stayed home!Start mortgage date: August 2022; Start mortgage amount: £240,999; Original mortgage free date: August 2056
Current mortgage amount: £226,957.97
Start student loan 2012: £29,750; current student loan: CLEARED July 20252 -
Thanks @Cheery_Daffk you’re probably right, I have therefore made my overnight oats for tomorrow.
Yes, 100% to the grey area @Merlin's_Beard! 🤷♀️

I have messaged the Chair of the PC to say I won’t be at their meeting tomorrow night. She’s also going to announce my resignation. Somewhat earlier than I’d planned, but it’s her choice and I get the impression she wants to get stuck in to transition activities etc.

Are you therefore free of the PC or is there a transition period??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 !!4
