I have always appreciated where I live, but I have just walked to pick Chloe up and realised that I have it all.....quiet streets, cycle paths, play park, ducks...with duck pond, squirrels running round. It was lovely walking home....

We have a free range hamster again :mad:
He's escaped from his exercise ball.
...Linda xxIt's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.0 -

I've been to Ikea.
DD2 was looking for 'house' things but refusing to buy.
I ended up carrying Samuel and now can't straighten up.

I don't hate men - they come in useful sometimes. Putting shelves up etc.
Respect - now that's another matter.0 -

Before i was a single parent on benefits, unable to get a job as my eldest daughter is severly disabled and im a full time carer for her, I dont mind that im used to my own company by now shes 18 now, but before he came to live with me i never had a debt in my life, and if i needed anything i could go out and get it, now im living with a kitchen with no cupboard doors no carpets no money and hardly any food, im paying a mortgage, gas, electric, phone, tv, food absolutley everything on £190.00 a week, My daughter DLA gets used for food as Im always short, Ive had to cancel her respite as i have to pay for it now as shes 18 to put food on the table, and i dont no what fatty does with all his wages, i see nothing for it, and ive had this out with him so many times and he goes and gets me 30 quid or something and tells me to use it for what i need.
Rant part 1 over
Haven't read the rest of the thread, but had to reply to this. I could have been reading about myself. I'm disabled, and had a 'partner' living with me as my carer. I had to pay all the bills and things, which wasn't too bad because the income support and everything came to me, but he hardly ever did anything. And he gambled all my money. I finally kicked him out a couple of months ago, and although some things (cooking especially) I'm finding a lot harder, financially I'm much better off. I'm finally able to start sorting out the flat, getting cheap bits of furniture that aren't falling apart, my bills have gone down, and my income has gone up (because of the income support premiums). And I'm in control - I can watch what I want on tv, go to bed when I want, eat what I want... It's so much better. You know yourself that you can cope better without him, so why are you still with him?Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.0 -
Urrgh I also had an ex who wet himself when he was drunk - how pathetic is that! I wonder if he still does.....OD [STRIKE] £2600 [/STRIKE] £0 :j Loan [STRIKE]£9500.00[/STRIKE] £0 :j Car [STRIKE]£3150[/STRIKE] £0 :j Moving Costs [STRIKE]£1300[/STRIKE] £0 :j Savings £1150 :j
