            :eek: Now that is frightening...I consider myself more organised this year because i have actually thought about christmas.....
 When is Orlandia bean due Toto!
 It is scary, actually I bought most of the kids gifts in the january sales, so I've just had to buy their big pressie recently. I'm glad it's all sorted and wrapped though, it's been bugging me every time I went into the garage seeing loads of unorganised brown boxes.
 The baby is due on November 18th so just a month to go.:A

 Because today I applied for all my benefits and cancelled the old tax credits claim.. so as of now the only money I know I'll be definately getting in the coming week is £31 child benefit.... no idea when I'll start getting my tax credits, income support or housing/council tax benefit. Have an interview with the income support people on monday.. other than that I just don't know what's going to happen and it's sitting and waiting of the unknown.. not knowing for definate how I'm going to put food on the girls' table in the near future...Burlesque_Babe wrote: »why are you scared Sar??Total 'Failed Business' Debt £29,043

            ok, not a good place to be All I can offer to start with is to say start putting together a plan of war - meal plan down to the last grain of sand in the cupboard and put whatever you can on ebay - there are no listing fees this weekend for basic insertion. Maybe do them as buy it nows to try to get some quick sales.
