Hi Lynz, really sorry you are having such a hard time, it's easy to forget how tough things are for you when you are being so positive and helpful towards others who are in difficulties. I really hope there will be a turnaround for you soon, you deserve it. Nothing much I can offer in the way of advice, but sending you a big hug and wishing for cooler weather for you! By the way, I have pinched a couple of your meal ideas (turkey enchiladas.......YUM!!!), hope you don't mind"I wasn't wrong, I just wasn't right enough.":smileyhea97800072589250

Hiya Lynz
Not said hiya for a bit so just wondering how you are. It's not half hot at the moment and sure it's getting hotter. Big hugs to you and hope things sort out. xxxJanuary budget

hi snaggles & LJD1
Yeah Im OK, just right up against it at the moment.
Ive given the matter some considerable thought, and Im going to try my absolute damndest to manage on the income that I have. Im not going down the DMP route as once we sell this place, we will need to rent and Im certain i DONT want to stuff up my repairing credit rating.
Going to give another whirl to trying to flog the lightfitting this weekend, and with a touch of luck if it sells, then it will almost clear my b/card. I am going to ask egg if I can make nominal payments on that until Im earning again.
Need to crack on with these bank charge things which Im going to do tomorrow- without fail!.
Keep em crossed for me wont ya:beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.

Fingers and toes crossed for you girlie!
I really hope the setbacks are (very) temporary and you can get work/money/health sorted out soon.
Have you tried the mantras? They seem to be working for everyone else (except me).The early bird gets the worm but the second mouse gets the cheese :cool:0 -
Keeping everything crossed for you lynz!!!
You seem to be managing to stay quite positive about it all, or you're doing a good job of convincing us (or me anyway!). Good on you for not letting the situation beat you, for having ideas and plans and things to do to manage, rather than doing nothing :T
Hey hey, you're nearly at 5000 posts too :j :beer:

Hi Lynz, hope youre feeling better today. It is very hot and I cant help but think of how you must be feeling. You mentioned going back to work, so have you got hopes of returning? I hope that is because you are feeling better and not because you feel forced to. Could you not get anything nearer that would avoid the tube journey? I was wondering if something like yoga exercises could help you. Something very gentle. I know of people who have sorted out their back problems with yoga. Im sorry if my suggestions seem stupid but I cant help but feel there is some natural remedy that would help you. I think if the doctors cannot find anything then there might be a simple solution but you just have to discover what it is. Have you tried researching your problems on the internet to see if there are any food supplements or anything else recommended for your condition? As I say if i sound stupid tell me to shut up but i just have that gut feeling that there is something you could do.The forest would be very silent if no birds sang except for the birds that sang the best0
