Hi Lemma. I just wondered if you're ok? Hope the money has started to come in, the diary's filled up and you're not feeling too fed up {{{{hugs}}}

Put shortly the answer to each of your questions is no, no and feeling crappy.

I won't bore you all with the details.

Thank you for asking though. I hope you are ok.

On a positive note - Spring is in the air.

Sorry you are feeling crappy. I wish I could wave a magic wand and make it all better

Ah, thanks honey. I'm sure things will turn around eventually. I just wish that eventually would get here a bit quicker. Everyday feels like a struggle emotionally and financially.

How are you getting on?

getting there, thanks lemma, one day at a time! Yesterday I felt like pants, but the early part of the week was ok. It's Friday today though, so another week almost survived........:)

Oh Lemma, i'm so sorry. Hang on in there it will get better eventually but i do understand your frustration. Debt has a knack of just hanging over your head and with a lack of income it makes it even more of an issue.

Wish i could do more than send you hugs xxx

Thank you honey - but there is little to be done at the moment. I have money owed (a few 1000s) but the debtors are ones that I know always take at least 3 -4 months to pay. I can do nothing to speed up that process cos they are local government departments and as we all know they do not think the normal rules of business apply to them. If that was to come in that would alleviate some of the pressure now.

And now, for some reason my lower and upper front teeth are giving me grief. Its real pain. I cannot even drink a cuppa cos of the pain. I was fine yesterday lunchtime and then by the evening my teeth were rattling (if you know what i mean). Needless to say I cannot afford to go to the dentist for a check up or treatment at the moment. :mad:

Hi Guys,

its a day of mixed news.

I have received some money so have thrown £1000 at HMRC - still behind though. Think that makes my total £4500 so far this year.

Sadly, yesterday was one of the worst days of my life - i sat and cuddled the face of our little dog whilst he was put to sleep. I can't explain the pain that has engulfed me. Its grief mixed with guilt. One minute he is there, looking into my eyes as i hold his face close to mine and talk to him, the next he has slipped away. He had surgery about 3 weeks ago to move a huge tumour that was initially thought to be benign. He rallied after the surgery - he was only 10 -not old for a Yorkie. He had his stitches out last Saturday morning. We thought he was fine, but by Monday he had stopped eating, was throwing up even water given to him and his belly had started to swell. We knew as we drove him to the vets yesterday afternoon that it was not right to put him through other surgeries as the vet said there was some other tumours and they were malignant. He seemed to be in pain and was very low. This time last week he was running around and seemed to be revived.

I'm sorry - I had best go and make a cuppa. xxx

Hi lemma
I am a long time lurker on your thread and think you are one remarkable lady :A

So sorry to hear of your poor dog, amongst everything else you have to endure.
I've never had a pet, but DH won't get a dog as he says he can't cope when they pass away, so I'm sure it's very difficult. Take Care x
