Well Joe had a talking to, wrote his letters and did some extra chores to pay for the excercise book he ripped up.

I have a meeting at the school this morning before Joe is allowed back im hopinh it goes well.

Didsome clicks yesterday and some surveys need to up my money as much as possible. Also need to do as much overtime this week to make up for yesterday plus i need extra money at the end of the month to get rid of these supid debts.

Anyways best get going

Well the meeting was ok. Dont know what i really expected. Joe understands that his behavour was not acceptable. As he has to pay for the excercise book - £1 he has do do a lot more chores to earn the money. The head looked at me like i was mad when i said he will pay for it but you will have to wait until he has earnt it. I am not going to just give Joe the money, once he has earnt the £1 then he can give it to the school. Hopefully he can learn a bit about the value of money too.

Im at work, its ok but i feel so drained and tired. Not long til Friday now.

And it just gets worse

Another bad day for Joe. I really dont know what to do anymore i thought it was getting better. Just seems like a compleate setback.

There will be no beavers tonight.

Morning,

Usual train fare. Dug out a box of slimfast from the back of the cupboard and bought it into work with me - i know remember why i stopped last time, its foul but im hoping to lose a couple of lbs as my size 12's are getting tight. And im not buying a 14!

I of course spoke to Joe again last night. Dont think it diod any good. I jsut hope for a better day than the rest.

Still at least its nearly Friday

Well i think the above says it all.

I can deal with being skint.

But my boy not behaving and disrespecting teachers i cant.

Its really affecting me now. I dont know what to do.

All i do is punish him.

I just want a happy little boy not one who is filled with anger.

Hi Hun!!
Sorry I've not been past as much recently - lifes kinda taking me over - what with dodgy old and pesky new computer systems and this extra painting job malarky, I never seem to have much time.

I'm sorry you are feeling a bit low at the moment, just when you thought Joe was getting somewhere! I'm sure he will continue to get better and the past few days are just a blip - you're gonna get them, frustrating though they are!

You know where we all are if you want to rant or just share your daily ups and downs.

Sending you loads of love, hugs and support,

Nats x

Thanks nats, i know your busy too

This diary is great, i know most of my rants arnt about money but by ranting on here i feel its saving me money on a shrink

I know deep down its a blip but when i have that call at 3.20 everyday i just kinda sink for a while.

Will be back later as ihave more to post but running late for the train :eek:

Well Morning

At work but covering the phones today as people are off, hopefuly it will make the day pass quicker.

I checked my online banking this morning and ive got my tax credits but also my working tax credit, its shot up to £161.05. This took my account back down to under the overdraft, but also means i can pay the childminder tonight and not have to borrow the money until pay day.

Im still skint but at least now i have £20 to get some milk and fruit. And the childminder is paid and im not overdrawn.

So that was a nice start to the day.

Joe had a school picnic this afternoon and as his behavour this week is disgusting he is not allowed to go. Ive asked the school not to let him play on the computer but they wont have the staff to look after him so the childminder is picking him up at 1.20 today - this way the school gets full marks for attendance. Joe has some work to do at the childminders that ive given him.

I just hope he bucks his ideas up.

Hope everyone is good!

Evening

Joe had a good morning yesterday. The childminder picked him up at 1.20 as agreed with the head. I just hope he can sort himself out next week.

The flat was still a mess this morning and still is now really. Need to get my act together and sort it out. Kitchen only needs a sweep and to wash up the plates from dinner.

Joe has his tutor tomorrow so need to draw out £25 for that.

NSD today so thats good!

Keep your chin up. It is a blip and he will pick up again. You're being consistent, you will win and one day he'll thank you for it.

You're still a superstar in my book :A
