    That's very unfair putting up your mortgage without telling you, I think a complaint is in order. I'm so pleased I fixed the rate of my remortgage for its term at least I know what I'll be paying out for the next 7 years.

  • I think the mortgage thing has been to do with the fact that DWP pay an amount towards the mortgage as part of DH’s benefit, so we are supposed to just know that the shortfall amount we pay can vary. Except it hasn’t until this month :mad:.

    DH had a partial seizure yesterday and has been all over the place head/mood wise :(. We didn’t go to chub club and I’ve eaten my weight (which is a lot!) in sweet things to cheer me up so next week’s weigh in probably won’t be pretty.

    Quote has been accepted for respite break, so just waiting for the finds now and then it can all be booked :j.

    Mr T wouldn’t take a 50p off coupon despite it being in date, so I emailed the manufacturer to complain, and they’ve sent me a £1 voucher as an apology. So a 100% increase for a little bit of fuss :D.(

  • DH has continued with the ‘waves’ today, so that’s 3 full days non stop :(. He had another angry outburst last night and DS1 and I coped it (verbally, it’s never physical!). When DH calmed down he said it’s because he gets petrified that I’ll leave him and that the boys will grow up hating him. Odd, because it’s only his angry behaviour that will cause that!

    Been to see Paddington 2 at the cinema today, which I prebooked earlier on in the week. MiL is a huge Paddington fan, so we took her too. Unfortunately we have used all our free tickets, so apart from Carers admission, it was full price :eek:. We all loved it though.

    5.20pm and I’ve already got my pjs and dressing gown on! Feeling like I want to hibernate :(. Wish I had wine!!
