Just a quickie today, I'm afraid. February Freeze refers not only to the potential weather conditions but the condition of my blog. I will be taking a blog break during February.
I managed to see the GP yesterday and I have something called Episodic something or other :? I had never heard of it but it is basically Vertigo which comes and goes....it's to do with the inner ear. I am no wiser now except that the condition usually resolves itself in about 4 weeks apparently. One down, 3 to go then. My swollen thumb and painful arm are...guess what... arthritis and it ....guess what....comes with age. Great, in other words put up and shut up!!
Our last bit of shopping for January came to £8.59 making a total for the month of £98.23 which is fantastic. Target achieved :)
The piggy bank of £2 coins saved throughout the year spewed forth a respectable £80 for diesel.
During the next month we will draw the usual food budget cash every Monday but also have £68 in the kitty for our 'eat out' fund so are all set to go.
Thanks so much for the replies on my last post (and for the sympathy, I am very grateful). Internet access will be sporadic during February so I might be able to read some blogs but not comment. Rest assured I will still be with you all in spirit :)
Have a lovely month and we'll catch up in March.
Stay warm and safe x
PS forgot to say we have WATER! The main is still not mended but they are pumping water in to the system so that we can at least wash and cook. Hurray!
