    Oh no. It never rains but it pours doesn't it. Can't believe you having such rotten luck at the moment. I would get on to one of the advice people that have been recommended and see if they can help. You must have an awful luck in store for you, given all the bad things that have happened recently. Wish I could do something to help.

  • Hello Maria Honey, Long time no speak (apart from the PMs)

    I too was very shocked to hear of recent events, especially the fact that you husband is still not working. And the situation with your job is just ludicrous.

    As ever I'm about if you need me, just let me know if you want anything.

    I have no idea what to do about the job, and I would follow the advice of the others on here as they semm to know what they are saying. You do need to spaek to someone about it tho.

    speak soon hun

    E
    Proud to be me, proud to be who I am!!

  • well this can only be a good thing maria - it means that either:

    a) your hubby now has no choice but to go get a job which means you are free to take your time finding another job that you enjoy more and spending more time with your daughter

    or

    b) you will find a fantastic job either today, tomorrow or next week that is much better paid and far more enjoyable.

    maria, you are a born survivor and you will not only get through this, but you will get through it and come out the other side smiling and ten times stronger than you were before. also, you will have a daughter that loves you and respects you.

    Maria,

    Ive just been reading through your long thread, and would like to say keep your head up. i used to live with someone who got severe deppression and just decieded one day not to go back into work. it ended up with me having to pay all the bills and having to pay £600 for the rent only and me getting paid only £900 per month soon got me into alot of trouble.

    It ended with me just completly not being able to cope and having to sort myself out.

    needless to say i kicked him to the curb, sorted myself out, am going through the bank charges avenue and am now living with my bestfriend who is my soul mate, and who i think im going to be with the rest of my life.

    Totally pointless to your thread, but remember IT DOES GET BETTER ;) :j :T
