I Believe.....
That it isn't always enough, to be forgiven by others.
Sometimes, you have to learn to forgive yourself.
Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery
Today is a gift. That's why it is called the present.
happiness isn't achieved by getting extra things,
but by getting rid of the things that make you unhappy3 -

Thanks - yes DS is hiring a car at my expense and driving down to be with me the night before, the day of the move - and then will work from mine the day after the move before heading back. He's got a virtual appointment he wants my support for so it's handy we will be together. All being well my cleaner should be coming to help a couple of hours on Monday. I still need to do my washing - and then I'll need to ask her to try and disconnect it as I don't have a clue - and I forgot to do it before the handyman came today. Then as a one-off she's due to come to my new place Wednesday and all being well the handyman will come next Friday.Baileys_Babe said:Very pleased to hear you have exchanged, that must be such a weight off your shoulders.

Thanks BB, Crystal, Jwil, MF, Skint, Lucielle and @Sunshine_girl2 - yes colossal relief.
Currently checking if I can get a sim upgrade to support the BB gap... These things are so time consuming and when you go via a cashback site - quite a few of the links to the offers don't really work... On a chat to a company now... to see what their best offer is - or whether I need to just move my sim. I did look at just buying an add on but it was really expensive. It's actually cheaper to upgrade all year!
Still feeling quite sick currently and struggling to eat normally. I'm going to try adding some protein into my last veg soup and see if I can eat that.Achieve FIRE/Mortgage Neutrality in 2030
