Another morning of flying wasted!!!
Found out this morning DP will not be getting income support due to receiveing working tax credits. So thats another kick in the teeth for our finances.
Spent the morning trawling the shops, jobcentre and internet trying to find some kind of job.
Off to a little cry and I'll be back, bright and breezy later.

Hugs Honey, hope you've got it out of your system now... are you sure he can't claim JSA instead of WTC's as he's not working now? I am sure that with JSA you get more benefits - help with rent, council tax, etc... so might be worth checking out - although I'm sure you've already done that... Take care and hope it gets sorted for you soon :A

Flower..... he is on the sick from work. Doesnt want to resign cos he has nothing to go too, and it would take up to 6 months for JSA if he left his work voluntarily. He has decided to bite the bullet and go back to work next week tho, even tho he hates his job. Told him to just let things go and keep a positive attitude. Not easy for him, he has OCD and anxiety issues so always feels as if everyone is out to get him.

She loves the attention and believe me if it'd happened to me, I wouldn't have heard the last of it.:D

DW done

Chickens have a lovely warm, clean house as I've cleaned it out and they are very happy because they told me in their own way.;)

Changed their water and made sure they have plenty of fresh food.

Dead chicken in the remoska, came from the freezer.;)

Fire lit.

Cat fed.

I am practically mute in real life (except around DS) I just dont have the energy to find words to put sentences together; so it really gets to me when, like last night, I do actually go to the effort to talk and it ends up with X wanting to start a big arguement with me. I cant even walk away from him cos when I try to he follows me around the house to continue the row. He just does my head in!

Hi Nikki - more hugs for you You need them :A

I know you get tired easily, but is there a group or something you can go join? Just somewhere that you can go and talk to people - I think you need that more than anything - maybe a toddler group so you can take DS?

If I lived closer I would help if I could and I know it would be hard for you, but I really think you need people, and you never know, you may make a good friend there... Hope you don't mind me suggesting it...

sorry for the lecture - it just hurts me to see you struggling in such a horrible atmosphere and not being able to help you. huge hugs, toots xx

Toots already beat me to it - she talks a lot of sense there Nikki - we are all your friends on here and all want to help you - if we could pop round to help we would and I hope you know that. You are excellent at planning and sorting stuff so why not do exactly that just for you? you need something to look forward to so take time to work on that, speak to the support groups and people who can help you - they are there just for that... take care hun x

I just took receipt of the giant chocolate santa from thorntons.. If you have a total chocolate addict in your family it is an absolute MUST... It is brilliant... have a binbag by the door though as it is in an obvious box!!

Angelnikki I also agree with what Toots said, just think, you took baby steps when you first joined this thread and I’m sure everything has improved a lot since then, so I’m sure baby steps will lead to a great huge step in a couple of years for other things. Xx:grouphug:

Pigpen – I hope you don’t wake up too sore tomorrow, that’s when it would normally hit, you’ll just have to take things easy for a few days (if that is at all heard of for you!). xx;)

Zoey- I wish you all the best for tomorrow. Xx:grouphug:

Summermoon- Good luck for your interview on Thurs. xx:D

Hi everyone

Managed to get the weekly shop done as well as cleaning the kitchen and dining room. I've also taken the kids to swimming.

Zoey - hope your op goes ahead tomorrow and that you make a speedy recovery.
Pigpen - take care
Angelnikki - hugs to you

Another early night needed here so I'll see you all tomorrow.
