    Thanks for posting the vol repo copy letter....I`ve been awake all night worrying about the `old` house & trying to build up the courage to deal with it once & for all. That letter will really help.

    I keep thinking I should do something more definite about the house - but wanna catch my breath first....

    21st August 2008

    Me and lil Merry are off to Cambridge tonight as my sister is getting married tomorrow.:beer: H isn't coming - he didn't feel it would be appropriate with the situation being the way it is - his new girlfriend, some of the rows we have had, etc. It's not been an easy few weeks - a few rows, some upsets, and quite a chunk of strain. :(

    Am in the process (still) of applying for benefits, etc so I can take over the tenancy and H can move out. I can't afford it without the benefits, and am not 100% sure how long it will take to sort this out. In the meantime, we are separating the household fully - he's going to his own shopping, cooking, etc - so that we can prove we have separated officially.

    I am also going to have to do a new SOA - lil Merry starts school in September which means I stop paying the salary sacrifice, do get an extra £200 in my pay packet :j:j Of course, now it's based on just my salary I look even poorer, but at least it's a move towards the future.

    H is aware that he'll need to do a new SOA as well, and it will probably have a negative effect on him because even with CSA payments for his other daughter, and lil Merry, he will have a chunk of money left over which the OR will probably snaffle.

    Older girls are off to religious camp with their Dad and Stepmum, and next week DD2 is 11, so celebrating with her!!

    So ups and downs, but still kicking!! :hello:

    And finally home. Spent the weekend at a friend's house, and slept SO much. I hadn't realised how tired I was, so strained and stressed. But home now. Back to reality.
