Ouchie i slept through all my alarms this morning and didn't get DS to school til 9:40am :eek::eek:
Seriously need to try and get Amber sleeping before 2am, i didn't realise how much it's affecting me, When ex was here i slept til about midday after a sleepy feed in bed, must have really needed it.
I'm thinking of buying a carton of formula today, and doing some mega expressing tonight because i think my supply is a bit low?? She just never seems satisfied, and i never feel full on a morning anymore. She's still munching her fists but it's more frantic than usual too, not sure why.
Off to booby group soon, and after Amber crying this morning in the rush to get to school she's now fast asleep and i need to get her dressed!! First though... food.
Weezl i've missed you :grouphug:0 -
If one person has debts or a bad credit record then it is best to keep all financial products separate. Also some people find that they can jointly manage the money between them better if they have separate money.I don't think theres anything wrong with having separate financial products.
I think there is something very wrong when one half of a couple is siting with nothing after paying out for essentials and the other half of the couple has fags and drink and money to waste.
I agree with Csh. I know not everyone works the same, but it really does surprise me the amount of married/committed people who seem to be completely separate with finances. I don't mean that people should not have their own bank accounts or that a credit card has to be in joint names etc. But I am continually amazed by couples who seem to have complete inequality. DH earns more than me but I could not imagine me staying in at the weekend because my wages have gone on bills and food shopping etc whilst he went out with his mates drinking. It's just alien to me personally. And yet I know so many people live like this and it's each to their own.0 -
Pants! I havent been paid my IS today, I called them and they mucked it right up, they changed my address and sent me a letter but the address is bck to my old one on file, they stopped my benefit because I didnt attend a WFI in my old town even though the appointment was sent out after I have moved!searching_me wrote: »:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: im sooooooo f*cking angry my work havent paid anyone and now im gonna get £30 worth of bank charges ... and if its not sorted by wednesday i need to cancel my DD or i'll get more charges :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: x

Oooh, things I forgot.
NMS - Hope work goes well for you.
SS - Yay for Molly saying Mama!
MFD - Hope you feel more upbeat today.
Csh - Is Kieren's head going really flat? Holly has a slightly flat patch at the back and I asked the HVs about it a few months ago, but they weren't concerned. I think babies have to spend really lengthy periods in the same place for it to be a concern. My friend ordered a special cushion online from Sweden as she was worried about her little boy. I think it cost nearly £30. When it came, it was just like an ordinary cushion/pillow!! She used it in his playgym but thought it was no better than a normal thin cushion!
Showered and fed and H is napping.
It's my dad's 70th on Wednesday and I have no idea what to get him!!! Nothing like being organised is there? Going to Asda to see if they have a clown birthday cake for him and also for food shopping as having everyone to mine for dinner. And need to find a present too! Think I will get tickets for Strictly Come Dancing Professionals, but would like a little present for opening too.
And been looking online for personalised photo birthday cards, but there isn't much for a 70 year old grandad!0 -
