    Another day gone. Didn't do too bad yesterday just didnt make it to the post office. Hopefully will get there today :o

    OH has heard that he will get his last wages this week coz of xmas :eek: I've been number crunching - was thinking hmm this looks okay? but i've just realised that i've saved to pay my tax bill! :mad: So it isn't looking so good.

    I spoke to jobcentre/benefits line or whoever they are :confused: they said to put in claim online as it will be quicker as they cant offer any appts for a while as they are busy :rolleyes: Oh well...saves OH a trip into town anyway. You did it online and then they call u back to sort it out i think. :confused: So OH will do that over the weekend and then we'll just have to wait and see. Most of his work people are trying to do it aswell. So that's a good waste of jobcentre resources! It would be better if they sent someone in :confused:

    Anyway, i digress, plan for today is

    1/work
    2/entertain DS
    3/number crunching!
    4/finish sorting pressies

    hoping for some snow!!!!!!! 7.gif

    Another day has passed by......not much to report really.

    Done scratchies, bingo won 5 so have withdrawn that and banking. All okay. Have decided I will wait until OHs wages go in tomorrow so we know how bad the situation is. I spoke to mum today who said she would lend a hand if need be while they sort out OH's jobseekers etc. She said she thought I was handling amazingly well and not too stressed etc. I said well it was inevitable it would come at some point and I don't want to ruin xmas etc for DS so its best to just do what we need too and then forget about it.

    Anyway going to do a bit a more work - then watch some tele.....

  • Still cold.....brrrrrr

    Done banking, bingo and scratchies. won 5 on bingo today so have withdrawn. Not much else to report.

    OH has now filled in all the forms he needs to for the jobcentre so now we just have to wait. He will have to go to the jobcentre at some point so will wait to hear. He has been tweaking his CV and trawling internet for jobs and there is not much about. So will probably be case of starting major big guns in new year.

    Got lots to do today (again) so will catch up later!!!!
