    :j So I am this morning sitting in almost the exact same place as I was 2 years ago, albeit 1 floor down. I am on my balcony with a beautiful view of the sea....
    Two years ago I was here planning my dmp on my return and now I'm 20/21 months in and in a much better place within myself. I am very aware I have a long journey ahead and still need to make some lifestyle changes at home to shorten this debt trip so that is what I am now going to focus on. But for the next 10 days I am going to enjoy some r&r all paid for in cash.
    My birthday came and went as they do! I did receive cash gifts and have purchased my new glasses which I am now wearing so Puzz can see again!
    I am now going to make another coffee and enjoy my view before the rest of the world gets up and spoils it..
    Love Puzz.x

    :D Good morning and what a glorious sunny morning it is in Spain after 2 cloudy days...today is day 4 and still on budget..our friends arrived yesterday which is lovely although dd and I do enjoy our own company it is nice to have people to go out to dinner with. I put my back out yesterday getting the sunbeds so luckily I now have help! Hoping it will heal quickly so I'm not hobbling like a 47 little old lady!!
    Hope the sun is shining wherever you are....

    So....day 7 of my holiday, time does fly when all your doing is sitting in the sun and eating/drinking......woken up by noisy peeps at 1.30...this puzz needs her sleep....I am missing updating my sig as payday and sc payment were after I left uk, never mind next Tuesday will be update time.
    Love being away but also looking forward to being back home as my houseguest has now left, but then also back to work...boo.....usually I am planning my next visit whilst here but with Dd's results looming no plans will be made as any savings may/will need to be diverted to uni costs next Autumn...we shall see.....
    4 days of r & r left, back not too bad now and tan lines coming on a treat.....purr......
    Love Puzz.x
