Not Quite 100%

Got into work and instantly felt the worse for it! Mounting the stairs was a huge effort. My legs felt like lead. None of my schools group had come when I met my boss Gianna in the staffroom. Must have looked under the weather as she said I should get home and back to bed! I agreed that this might be a good idea, sat chatting for a while and then made good my escape. Only to bump into two students who had eventually arrived from Ayr to do their assessment. I sat invilating for an hour or so coughing like fury. But eventually they finished, and I treated myself to a taxi up the road.

I went thru a taxi phase a month or so back. Got them everywhere, morning, noon and night. Until Caroline found out! Got a telling off about economising. Ha.

I do get frightened of debt though. Sign of my upbringing, where debt got you in the Poor House. People have a misconception about this. Think their debt dies with them. Not a bit of it. Your creditors line up, with the government and their agencies at the top of the preferred list. Unsecured debt like credit cards get paid last. Usually by then there is nothing left of the estate. Hence why people think credit card debt is written off. It is in this instance, but so is everything else you had!

Dunno where that train of thought came from. But who gives.

Off to bed to sniffle away to myself without annoying anyone.
