Ive Turned On The Light

:grouphug:

Anyone offer me a hug today pls im in need of one.. That or a large brandy!

Quick update CRB check still NOT gotten back to me.. been 7 weeks now soim still unable to start the new job. This means i have to go through the whole rigmoral of ringing wftx after all the crap ive had from them lately to cancel it. for literally in a week to reclaim it again and no doubt be without for a while! Did have a training course yesterday for which i will be paid for but it wouldnt be enough to claim wftx so got to have them talking to me like a numpty!

Re CSA... i wont tell you what i think this stands for but its not polite.!Got my "Award" letter this morning to tell me i will be getting..... wait for it... hope your sitting comfy for this .. a whole.. big ... wapping...£1.25 a week!!

Yes ladies and gents apparently it costs £1.25 a week to keep a child. In ethipoa maybe where the poor mites have sweet f a but not in real life!

I was on hold for 25 mins passed from pillow to post if they hadnt have had a lovely irish accent i may have been a little bit more annoyed but that always softens the blow for me lol

Good ole daddy has stated he only brings home about £100 a week to the vat man so CSA have taken HMRC's word for it and awarded me that! I said his rent is " 800 a month along with food bills etc how the hell can he live!
" Ah yes miss B..... you have a point so if you would like to call the HMRC and tell them that he is earning less than the minimum wage and that it cant be possible im sure they will give us some more figures"

Last time i called the HMRC it was as i knew he was working cash in hand when he said he wasnt so he didnt have to pay... They told me as i didnt have actual proff could i gain this by taking photographic evidence of him cleaning windows... My response to this was..
" Would you like me to dress up as a bush as well" :mad::rolleyes:

I find it an absolute insult that an award like that would even be put on paper and sent to me,, christ the amount i get a week was less than it cost them to calculate it and send it to me!:mad:

New BF been an absolute dream and helping me out here and there due to new job not starting,

He is back on nights tonight for 4 nights.. my daughter off to her aunties in london and an Alton Towers sleepver for the next 4/5 days and i have no money so ive just booked mahoosive amounts of hours to work from home and i dont plan on leaving my house after 6pm today!

And then its a bit of slicing the pie to see what i can earn on there. I need 190 for this soddin bed within about 5 days lol... Thats me listening to alot of pants!

Evening all, Are well all warm and feeling xmassie??

I finished off my last pressies today apart from new bf now he has gone off to do a 12 hour night shift and im stuck at home texting for 7 hours :rolleyes:
I also plan to do some slicing of the pie to top that up. still cant see me getting as much as i need but every little helps as they say!

Today i took my friends kids out for lunch which was nice, she works nights so it let her have some sleep. They are 3 and 5 and as much as i love kids and they are great it shows me more and more than as i have one 10 yr old and new bf has a 7rd old and a 12 yr old that im more than happy with what we have!:rotfl:

While we was out having dinner though,i got a call from a mystery shopping company but i was in a busy place and even when i went outside it was near a noisy road and i only caught a few bits about what she was saying, place date etc... I didnt catch her company even after asking a couple of times and asked her to email me details but she said something about it would just be on the site when i logged on..... I dont know the site lol.. So if anyone else got one today to do with a famous sandwich bar pls get in touch incase its same one!

Right i got me pop i got me smokes and i got me sweeties... all care off b/f :kisses3:

Ill spend the night working and lurking oh what joy on a sat night xx

Morning all and its a right down feeling day for me today.

Xmas was nice and steady nothing too hectic and i got immensely spoilt by new Bf which was nice as the previous men in my life lets just say they were more receivers... i was touched to the point i cried at his generosity and am still very happy.

Job, believe it or not i still havent started its now been 8 weeks since the company sent off for my CRB police background check and still no word back on it. I cant believe i handed my notice in on my interviewers say so as i could have worked another month and not be struggling like i am now. I am seriously now having to contemplate whats happening in my life. I am texting left right and centre in my home job but i have other commitments and it doesnt bring in the money a full time job does.

I have had to cancel my wftx now so thats £!60 a month not coming in on top of a regular wage. Also contacted the dss to be told as i made myself unemployed as such ie handed my notice in to start new job,,, i cant claim anything, So i have no main income coming in. Money is running out and things still need paying. I was hoping to have paid my bed off but monday is the last day and seems i wont make it so therefore nasty interest will get added to that and added to my debt.

The new bf has been absolutely amazing and a lot of this past month wouldnt have been possible had it not been for him. He has offered to keep helping me out but i dont think its the best start for a new relationship and as ive always been rather independant i find it hard to accept things.. catch 22 huh

As usual this posting as many others is mainly for my benefit, if its read its read if not i want to be able to look back and see how far i have come when i get back on my feet again,

Off to have a long hard think about what to do xx

Just so fed up, im still out of work everything is needing to be paid im having to use money i had paid off my cards and o/d to keep up with stuff. Im not going out im not buying anything innecessarily either.

My CRB check has still not come through.. this is getting on for 9 weeks now and its getting me down so much i have started job hunting for something else. But as anyone will tell you there really isnt that much out there and with all these stores closing so many others will be in the same situaton as me.

I was in London beginning of the week visiting my sister and her partner, we had been celebrating as she was 11 weeks pregnant, on the monday night she started bleeding slightly so i took her to A&E and after 6 hours of waiting and checks they discovered the baby had died at 7.5 weeks . She had been trying for 6 years and desperately wanted to be a mum, It was a sad sad time and as usual nothing can be said or done to make things better. She is 40 in march so kind of realises her time is running out.

I feel with everything going on my world is falling down gently around me, the baby the job my money etc. I was feeling good eventhough i could see my debts in front of me i knew i was dealing with them.

I never paid off my bed in time so thats an hurrendous charge of interest on that now.. about 300 pounds i think... My credit cards will soon be back up to their limits again rather than me being proud i could see them coming down and the bank account is slowly dwindling. I do have my texting job but sadly as i was about to change jobs i couldnt commit to full time hours so i have minimum hours unless any become open from cancellations meaning i cant make a full time wage from it right now.

I have paid my rent till end of jan and i have filled the freezer and cupboards up, my car needs petrol at end of feb it needs tax and it needs a new tyre now.

If i had only kept in my job rather than listening to these peoples say so about my CRB check being back i wouldnt be in this mess

Life sucks at times doesnt it!


Finally managed to get my CRB reference number off my new employees so i could track it myself. It has been stuck at a police checking stage since 17th november!!:eek: I could understand it if i had anything on my record but ive never been in touch with the police or anything even similar so lord knows why its taking so long! I spoke to a nice gentleman who has said he has done an email to try and push it along but this is still not helping my situation.. The place he sent this email to now have up to 10 working days to do it but then it still has yet another stage to get to after that! :rolleyes:

I have been talking to new BF and trying to work out whats the best. WFTX will be stopping almost immediately but im wondering whether i should just turn completely self employed again and do my texting as much as i can and i can still claim my wftcredits but im not sure if it will mess things up too much for when i start a full time job.... or do i just give up on my support workers job as im soo losing faith in it and just work from home full time and be fully self employed... oh god im so confused xx

Morning Smamfer, just read your thread from start to finish...so it's actually not morning anymore...it's afternoon!!!

You're doing so well, don't give up! I can't believe how crap the CSA and WFTX are...that kind of incompetence gets me so angry. I don't have children so don't really understand a lot of the entitlement but I think I know more from reading your thread than these people do who work there lol!

And it's annoying about your job too. I have to have maximum CRB for my job and it NEVER takes that long. I do the paperwork and have it back in 2 weeks. Had you known it would take so long, you could've carried on at the other place!!!

Anyway, keep up the good work!

Love Miss Shoes xx

Thank you for popping in sweetie i thought i was all alone and well done you for reading my life so far.. are you still awake??:rotfl:

It is annoying you try and do the right thing and it blows up in your face! If i hadnt have called today and gotten this kind man to push an email through it could have been sat there for ages. The website states 90% done in max 4 weeks.... so why is mine 9 when i know im clear!!! Was there that many santa's wanting a crb to do their xmas job????

I think ive decided to go self employed doing my texting full time while im waiting and just hope it doesnt mess things up as and when the crb does come through and i can start this job and go back on the books..... thats if i decide to take it as my hearts not in it right now xxx
