Joe Update
CAHMS just called. Joe is now going to be referred to be tested for dyslexia and social difficulties. They don’t think its autism, but it still could be.
The good thing school so far is going well, I just hope it can carry on.
To be honest I think dyslexia could be a possibility, but then again it could just be that Joe is lazy when it comes to reading as he is not so confident in it.
At least we are getting closer to what the problem could be. Which is a good thing! The psychologists report will be posted out to me within the next week which im looking forward to reading. Shame theres a god dam postal strike all over the place. Looks like I will just have to wait – not my strong point.
Joes teacher also spoke to the childminder yesterday and said he has had 3 very good sunshine days! Which im very proud of. As long as he tries his hardest, im happy.0 -
Morning All,
Had a good debt free wannabe weekend. Didnt spend anything! Joe and i just chilled this weekend. I helped at the scouts thingy on Sunday and that was about it. Needed the stress free couple of days though and feel alot better now. My eye lump thing has just gone which is good.
Cant wait until Thusday, internet i hope and pray will be up and running, ive got a box of bits that need to go on, im aiming to list 10 items a week ending Sunday meaning i can post out Monday Tuesday as long as things are paid for.
Best crack on with work, i really do need the internet at home, i think ive got MSE withdrawal!0 -
Afternoon,
I feel like crap today, got home last night and felt so bad! Joe was a sweetie and made me lie down on the sofa with a pillow and blanket :A and then helped me make dinner, well he made it really. Jacket pot wwith beans and cheese. Joe is still doing well at school as well
He has beavers tonight which will give me a hour to myself.
Money sides hasnt changed. Still have none! I have worked out Octobers budgets though and nearly meal planned the whole month. I have hardly any food stocks any more! I will do a online shop at the end of the month so i will re-stock then.
Hope everyone is well.0 -

Right, plan of attack this evening(Cause internet is working now!)
1) Dinner - pesto pasta – quick and simple and only one pot to wash up!
2) Use leftover pasta for Joes lunch tomorrow – tuna pasta salad
3) Wash up, put dishes away, wipe over kitchen, sweep and quick mop
4) Quick once over in living room
5) Joes bath, book and bed and then
6) EBAY! Try and list at least 5 items
Ive got so far
X2 brand new adidas t-shirts
Brand new black and yellow dress
Brand new black dress from next (was £45!)
Size 4 purple pumps – again brand new, not my size though!
Size 3 black pumps - again brand new, not my size though!
Plus Ive also got my old BT home hub that im going to try and get on. Reading though the eBay thread most people reckon that items ending on a Sunday night do well, so if I list tonight on a 10 day listing the timing should be right.
Ive still got to take photos and upload them all. Im not to sure what prices to start with though?
Ive also got some bits of jewellery to go on, the earrings will just go on a 99p and some of the bracelets I will have to think about.
It’s not going to make me a millionaire but hopefully help me really start getting this debt down cause at the moment im just going min repayments and I will never be debt free by August 2010. I want to be debt free by then so I can treat me and Joe to a nice holiday in October 2010 and then start some proper saving for a deposit on somewhere to live.0 -
hmmm
best laid plans and all that! I only got home at 7.30. Stayed late at work until 6 and then went to the pub with dad until 7! The power of 2 glasses of wine, lol.
Well, dinners made, tidying hasnt happened. But i have taken a few photos for ebay, off to search for the cable to download the pics from my phone.
I really shouldnt drink, 2 glasses and im as merry as anything!0 -

I'm well DS is in bed and DD is playing with wooden bricks, which is giving me 5 mins to catch up. My DS 4 years generally comes up trumps when I'm ill by being caring and giving me a big hug just when I need it, it often makes all the differnce between my crying in the corner to finding I can cope and continue with life. If only he new the power he had.
Joe being a loving and caring child is down to you and all the work and energy you put into him.
On the positive front for today, by working later you will have increased your income.Fashion on a ration 2025 0/66 coupons spent
