Okay the situation is this - I've cleaned the conservatory all the tiled floor and everything, however, I can't see the DR floor for stuff out of the conservatory and there is stuff in the kitchen and LR as well. So far I have 3 binbags of rubbish, 3 binbags for the charity shop and 2 binbags for school. I've not got to try and sort out what needs to go back in and what can be found a home elsewhere.NST #10 Steps 7K 2/30 10K 2/12 5 a day 3/30 NSD 0/20

afternoon everyone
Triker thats great news about your blood results - the meds must be working - remember though you musnt get carried away doing things - sounds like a nice day out.
xxJoxx awhhh huge hugs for you both re Ex - if i was fitter i would do the damage for you:mad::mad::mad:
Diva hope you are back with us soon SunnyGirl - your house must smell lovely with all that baking - making my mouth water
embb well done:D:D
prettypennies glad you 'enjoyed' the speed awareness course - its past and you can relax again and brilliant news re the smear:T:T:T
jinky sounds like you have been taken for granted? huge (((hugs))) petal and I hope they realise what an angel you are very soon - in the meantime enjoy some me-time and do what you want to do (apart ffrom the cleaning)
Sarah thats great the Lo is eating again - it wont be long until she starts putting on weight again (((hugs)))
cazzab and you are having another:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: hope your day has improved
(((hugs))) macpep - maybe you need something to pick you up - do you think you should see a doc or has this happened before?
LadyL nice to see you posting honey - love and hugs xxx
piggers what next!!!! you said you had one payment from the housing benefit people - do you have an award letter or failing that get a copy of the bank statement showing it and take it down their office and demand that they sort it out ASAP - if they have already paid you then there must have been a claim. get yourself to CAB re the house possession PDQ - they can get a stay on the repossession if they write on your behalf but you need to act quickly - as Penny says the repo wont happen overnight and ther is still time to sort it - the last thing you need is to be moving!!! I hope you can sort out all the other problems too - at least you have no beastlets this weekend so you have time to think and to chill a bit! massive ((((hugs)))) because you really do deserve them xx
havehad a busyish day so far and now need to ebay like a mad thing - I wish wilf was here to inspire me
hugs to all the poorlies and *kick* where required:D
toots xxPeace will be mine
could do better - must try harder
Live each day as if its your last

THANK YOU!! .. All of you..
I just checked my bank account.. the university have paid £650 into my account that they shouldn't have... so.. I shall illegally use it to cover the mortgage this month and buy myself a months respite.. and sort something in the meantime and I'll have to ebay like crazy to get the money back for uni.. they paid it ast month as well which is sitting in my savings account gathering interest while they decide to ask for it back.. I will be able to recoup the money before next month I'm certain of it.. I just have to put a lot of effort in.
Just thrown the childrens dinner in the oven.. they can all go to bed early tonightLB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -

Pigpen, it's all good advice above. See the uni money as a sign that good is happening somewhere along the line. Ebay answers alot of problems I wish you good sales.
THURSDAY FINISHED TOOTS STAR PLEASE!
Took DS123 and DD2 to cinema today. Myself and DS3 and DD2 saw the Princess and the Frog. DS12 saw Percy Jackson and the Lightening Thief. Cost a small fortune but everyone is happy and DS1 made me a cup of tea when we got back. He was the antichrist's older naughter brother this morning so this is a welcome peace offering.
DH is away for another night. He should have come back today so that means another shirt/pants/sock combo he will have bought.... which brings me to the ironing I have a huge pile of it and aim to tackle it tonight.
DD1 is back from Paris soon and I've got her favourite dinner on. I've really missed her and it's good to have her back home.0
