Sallyx's Sink or Swim, Swimerdy Swim Diary ;)

OH also offered a lesser rent, in return for a swift move in. He managed to get £50 or £60 a month off, so always worth asking if they will accept less.

Hi Sally

No advice to offer, but good to hear you sounding positive. I'm sure you must want to start getting things sorted now the decision is made (which, for what it's worth, sounds like the right one)

Take care of you (and :A

Thanks Shoe Gal

Have had a rubbish day at work, sooo bored and I would really like to find something else but Boss is so good working around hours I need to do, sickness and taking time off if B is sick that I would be hard to find a boss as good.

Did kind of make quite a huge step by telling the friend I work with today what had been going on ....she is the first person in real life and now I feel lve made that step there is no going back for me (which Is what I needed). Still haven't told my Mum...that will be hard and I don't want her to worry anymore than she already has to

I know Sal but our Mums are touugher than we think.
Im sure she will support you 100% just as you would support B.

Hi, Sally, I came across your diary after seeing your entries on Hypno's diary which I silently support from lurkdom, I just wanted to send good vibes and etherial hugs to you during this difficult time. Sometimes I think life can be so unfair kicking both you and Hypno down while you are struggling to do the best for your families during financial difficulties, but I think when you come out of the darkness of the tunnel - as you surely will and hopefully sooner rather than later - you will be a stronger, happier person, and DD will know -as she probably already does - that she has a very special Mummy. :heartsmil xx

Thanks KJ thats a lovely post.
Have been over to see my mum today and she took us out for lunch
Was so nice to be out the house and have dreaded coming home...feel like its a black cloud hovering over me when I am here, just can't be myself and happy.

Hey ho, lots of ironing, sandwiches to make and housework before the morning. At least Ive managed to pick up a mystery shop tomorrow so thats another £12.50 in the pot of no return.

Have also decided to list loads of my expensive photography equipment on ebay...the money is needed and im not really using it at the moment.
