if its paid by direct debit then the banks have the direct debit guarantee system and if you have a disputed payment they can recall all the money,

It worked well for me when my gym took 3 months to amend our DD for membership. I do internet banking, so I sent a secure message asking for the DD to be returned to me, they emailed to check why because the amount hadn't changed, then they sent it straight back. Funnily enough the gym sorted it after that!

I am just back from a wasted visit to the physio. She spoke to me about the situation but will not do anymore until an MRI scan has happened. So I now have to see the doctor at the end of the week, and I will then have to push him. She said not to be fobbed off!. Great, felt as if she was fobbing me off.

Must be annoying, but better no physio than the wrong physio, if she's not got enough information to go on?

Well said Molly. Txt's are for finding out if another pint of milk is needed, not for discussing major life issues and changes.

I agree. Texts are for, "train running late, will be there in 10 mins" type conversations, or picking up the milk. Nothing serious should be texted!

Haha, our complete life seems to revolve around texting anything important. he will not talk face to face, he is contemplative and silent! (Moody in other words).
Well I have to laugh as he sent a text while under the influence of alcoholic beverages! need I say more. He is not usually the type!. Then of course he is suffering from a hangover and having to work. Even more of a laugh. Serves him right!.
He is trying to play the wounded soldier me thinks. Except hes a few years too late for that one.
I love him to bits, but there comes a time when I had to make a stand for my sanity if for nothing else.

DGD is not too bad, little bit demanding but main problem was she came back with a dummy and wanted it last night. So we had a screaming abdab again.
But I didnt give in, and she was asleep within about 10 minutes dispite her protests.

DS has emailed me to tell me he is not happy at Twin1's and that he will be looking for somewhere up in scotland near his girlfriend, when he can get the deposit up. (Laugh at the saving up for a deposit bit).

That would definitely do my head in!

Now you know that if you stand firm she'll deliver ! That trick will work with other things too. And other people

Result!
Yesterday when I cancelled the Direct Debit to TalkTalk, as it was on the day it went out, it was returned to my account. So I am fine. I can now go and pay my rent! phew. I am so relieved. I was really worried that I was going to get into even more arrears.
Also on the plus side I have recieved a letter for a referal to the spinal-nueralsurgery department in Oxford, and have rung them. My appointment is the 19th January. So thats not too bad really.
And also I have received a letter from the council to say that I am now an Assured tenant having had the tenancy for a year. Yipee. This may well actually be my forever home at last!.
After 40 places to rest my head I am hoping that it will be.
Have had one of the Mums back for a cuppa this morning and had a good old moan and laugh about Men and the kids. She said that she hardly knew she had my DGD, that she was so well behaved, and that she took easily to the family. I am so pleased. They even said that if they go to the zoo etc they may take her with them. That would be very good for her.
For now, i have only an hour left before Nursery is over, so I am not going to get much done now. My fruit and veg delivery is due any time now, so I will get that put away and have another cuppa.! Have decided that I will make my Mum another bag, the same as the other one, and call them shoe bags for her!! They should come in handy when they are away in the caravan.
Then I will have to think about everyone else!!

Mooloo - warning bells!!!! The next thing will be an urgent text from DS ..."Mum I need £xxxxx and I promise to pay it back......";)

Stay firm, lady, stay firm !

Evening, I have my new sewing machine, but alas I am not feeling too well, so I havent managed to try it out. Twin2 is here, instead of twin1. We have our meeting tomorrow with the counsilling for her for the first time.
Twin1 will come tomorrow instead. I dont really have the space for the two of them to stop.
DGD is in bed early, as she has been feeling unwell also. She will probably be up early in the morning, so I will be back in bed soon myself. I hope that its only a small bug as I really dont feel that brilliant and to care for DGD and be ill ontop of my normal illnesses doesn't bare thinking about!.

I had started to revamp a wicker basket that i bought, and am aiming to turn it into a sewing basket for Biggest of Mooloo. So I hope that i can get back to the sewing in the morning. Before we go to town.
I had a small "conversation" with the ExBF on Skype, typing part, this afternoon. Nothing really changed. But at least there was no actual recrimination blame stuff. But I am not about to change my mind. I am determind that I am worth more than he was prepared to give, and I am not going to change my mind very easily if ever.
time to get back to rest, if not sleep.

Sending healing hugs and :T:T:T For standing firm with BF :T:T:T I know this is even tougher to do when you are feeling awful.
