    Hi Mooloo - I have come out of lurkdom to say a massive congratulations, you must be looking forward to getting your house next week :T I am so pleased for you and your family! :j

    Welcome from lurkedom!.
    I am in a tissy now, trying to get things put inplace.
    I have seen carpets I like on the internet, but cannot imagine being able to fit them. (I have had a sample for the one I want for my front room) and now I want to order it, but not sure if I can get someone to fit it.
    I can get the local shop and get some remenants from them, and they will send a fitter, but would he fit my front room carpet.? All I am doing now is getting questions after questions! Trust me.

    anyway DS doesnt know yet. But we were working on the date for the following week so it should not come as a surprise to me.
    The housing have assured me that they will get a move on and it will be ready.!
    When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.
  • I'm sure if you ask him (carpet fitter) in plenty of time he would fit the front room carpet for you. Prolly charge a bit more to do it. But if he's there anyway.......
    Officially BR at 2.10pm on 6th May 2009, ED 7th December 2009

    BSC number 256. Chairperson of The May 2009 Bankruptcy & Debt Relief Order Club!

    It's now time to move on and enjoy life again.

    I will call in tomorrow while DGD is in the Stay and Play with her mum, and see what I can get arranged. Perhaps I will get the company to come and measure up, (thats usually free) and see what they can suggest. I know that I have to pay the fitter seperately so thats fine. I will stop panicing. It will all come together it will.
    The BT land line has been re-arranged. What a hassle, now its a different phone number then I was first told.
    No Broadband available that first weekend.Eek.

    Removals man is ringing me back in a bit.
    The charity thats helping me with the wardrobes is calling me back after 11.30 tomorrow.
    The Social Worker is coming at 1pm.
    DGD has dancing at 2pm - 3pm then I am going to see BF.
    So in the morning when DGD wakes me so early, I can at least get the overnight bags packed.

    I did start to cut out some small bits for Christmas decorations but DGD got her finger stuck in my sewing box, and then she made a hole in the door, and i decided I better stop.
    When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.

    The removal man has just cancelled on me, he first said he can move me but not ;pack me, the when I said that I will struggle to do the packing with my problems he moaned that he was up at 4am and working till 11pm and then he said he would do me a favour and hung up on me.
    So I am now without a packing service and a removal firm.
    I have to start all over again. The last quotes were all £500+ higher. I should have known that it would not be so simple
    DGD is driving me nuts. I will have to go and get her to bed. If she doesnt destroy it anymore then she did last night.
    I am at an all time low. Why am I doing all this? I really am fed up of it all.
    When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.
  • Head up Mooloo, it will work out, don't despair yet. Have you looked at the local shops and asked at the church, there may be a man with a van type person who could help out.

    It was the fact that he was supposed to be doing a complete packing service for me, one day, and moving me the next. He didnt tell me that he couldnt do anything until after christmas now! He had plenty of opportunity, as Ihad provisionally booked him in for the week of the 6th so nothing had changed.
    I am upset and angry.
    I know it will sort it self out, correction, I will sort it out, but at the moment I feel very alone, and very tired, and very very stressed. What with the LAC review for DGd coming up, and feeling as if I was doomed for a life of hell the way she is at the moment. I wonder if I am sane anymore!.
    i really am loosing the plot today.
    I know in reality I do have until newyears eve to get out of this house, but I dont want to be here anylonger as I am too cold, and too isolated when I feel the winter blues and the like.
