ok, so I finally moved and have decluttered a cup of tea and washed some dishes and put away some stuff

And been on the phone to the council AGAIN. My HB claim is STILL not on the system:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: its all very well them saying it will be backdated to the date of my claim, but that doesnt help me pay the flaming rent NOW does it?

Its coming up for two months now I have been waiting:(

Oh I know that feeling.. they seem to cancel ours every couple of months and I have to chase them constantly to get it sorted.. hope it is done soon the LL won't be best pleased if they mess about much longer i'd bet.

He has offered to phone them for me, if needed.I have kept him up to date with all their shenanigans:cool:

Their systems seem to be constantly down though! They were last week and are today and Monday apparently!

I'd let him!!! He can tell them you're going to be evicted for non-payment!

There is a council place at the end of the street I can go strop in and they move themselves.. it is so annoying though.

Well bad week here! Since the clocks changed I just seem to have lost me mojo:mad:. Dailies are getting done and everywhere looks tidy but not done the "extra" jobs.

Here's hoping I adjust to the new time soon. Going to bed early and still wake up feeling tired!

Hello I'm still here but been out 2 nights this week so done NO housework at all and have family up for the weekend so that's a write off....will be back for next week.
I'm having to do this challenge a week ' in hand' - as I can't always get to view it, I miss days, so I've just printed off LAST weeks and am going to use it as next week's challenge for myself...:D
