It doesnt rain............
OH has been paid by cheque this month as there is a problem at work usually paid by bacs), we dont even know if the cheque will clear or not.
Suppliers arent being paid, cheques are bouncing and now salaries are late. Seriously it looks as though days are numbered and OH will be out of a job by Christmas.
Bloody great.
Brother has had a few setbacks this last few days too.

So sorry that this has been added to your troubles.
What line of work is your OH in?

Oh Lou, I'm really sorry to hear all that, it's the last thing you need right now. I'm really sorry to hear about your brother too. I've not been online much in the last few days but I've been thinking of you, and I'll carry on doing. I hope things get better for you soon.Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.0

But with regards to your brother, it was a serious op, its only to be expected really. But he WILL get better, dont you worry:cool::lovethoug:lovethoug:heartpulsOnce a Flylady, always a Flylady:heartpuls0 -
I am going to try and be more positive tomorrow, time for a nice soak in the bath I think.
OH hates his job anyway so maybe it is for the best in the grand scheme of things.But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.0 -
Hope things pick up for you a bit tomorrow, but if OH hates his job and at least you have the money side of things fairly sorted - think of all the housework he'll be able to do:rolleyes::rotfl:.
Like Jinky says bro will get better but it's really early days yet so give him time and he'll bounce back :grouphug:.Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

Have just spent the last little while reading your thread LJ - sorry to hear about your brother but keep faith with what the medical staff have said - it'll probably be a different story altogether next time you see him as he'll be so much brighter.
I assume you've got OH's cheque paid in as quickly as you could - I will cross my fingers for you that it clears. As you say, if he doesn't enjoy his job anyway it clould end up being a silver lining......🎉 MORTGAGE FREE (First time!) 30/09/2016 🎉 And now we go again…New mortgage taken 01/09/23 🏡

Just returned from hospital and Brother has turned the corner and managed to get out of bed for the first time.
Such a relief to see him brighter.But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.0 -
