    Why are you going to come unstuck in a couple of weeks?
    If you know you are coming unstuck is there anything that you can do to soften the blow?


    A couple of weeks is when the money I have in the bank will run out :rotfl:

    Although I am working more hours at the moment I won't really see the benefit of it until a month or so AND I have got to save the extra for tax.:(.


    I am just going to have to juggle things a bit for a couple of weeks.:)

    Don't worry about not moving.... put your feet up, put the telly on & relax. I would if I could but I can't :( My time will come:)

    I have decided not to go up to Scotland .... I really can't afford it. BUT I am going to take a day off on my Birthday and DH & myself will go out to lunch whilst the kids are at school.:T

    CFS chronic fatigue syndrome, not good along side the fibromyalgia. trouble is the cysts are under the skin so there's nothing they can do just more tablets. I'm gonna start rattling soon.
