    I'm such an idiot. I was going to do loads of flying today, but forgot my meds yesterday and only found out today when I went to take today's dose. So I'm really really really dizzy as a result. Sitting on the sofa is almost too much! Might have to go back to bed.

    DH is home today, job hunting and he's going to sign on later. We are at the lowest point we have ever been money wise, as his work has died down for the winter. He's just popped out to the bank as we have managed to scrape together some cash to put in there for the rent, the rest of the rent is going on the last CC we have that's not maxed out. Things will get better when spring arrives hopefully if people aren't suffering too much because of the recession and can afford to get work done again.

    Sorry to come on here and just moan, the only flying I've managed to do today is hang out the washing.

    aaaaw rose honey, big hugs for you, such a nightmare worrying about money not much wonder you forgot your meds. Hope you have had a rest and are feeling a bit better. Will todays meds kick in at some point ? Dont worry about having a moan, we all need to let off steam

    Jill well done on being proactive
    I need to give credit to my friend, she really is the most amazing friend anyone could ever have. She works at our school now and brought me the leaflet for the new course. She is off today and we have just been on MSN, I was bemoaning DS's football club dilemma and she has helped me find the perfect solution for that as well. I love her to bits and am soooo lucky that she is my friend. She isn't on here but I did tell her earlier on MSN how fab she is :D

    groan is it really that time already ?
    gotta go get DD2 up and get off to school. Got my antenatal (from nearly 7 years ago - we still meet every week!!!) group coming round this afternoon. 7 Mums and 13 children :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: Our school kicks out latest so they are all always waiting for me on the doorstep when I get back.
