Double Trouble - Nothing by halves

Sorry you're down DT - hope the bubbles worked. Thanks for raising the idea of a soak, a GRRRRRRRRRRR day here too, a soak was just what I needed and worked wonders.
Not had my soak yet as I had to wait for OH to get back to babysit but he is back now and has offered another cappuccino so what can a girl do :j
glad the soak worked for you I will be having mine soon

Don't be miserable!
I'll cheer you up - I have had lots going on, lots of positives and hard work. All my bloods are clear and I have absolutely nothing wrong with me other than I have worn my arms and hands out :j.
I have work and with a company that doesnt make you wait 4 months for it.
Now, cheeriness breeds cheeriness, so turn the frown upside down, enjoy the bubbly bath, think that the 31st gives you long enough to prepare, time to sort out the villa issues and drink some more lovely cappachinos before all hell lets loose when that job comes along.

That's for you thank you very much :A so pleased you got good blood results
I have much to be grateful for so I will try
Had a chat with OH about it and we know the long term solution is for me to get a job so I have to concentrate on that
We could make short term changes but that would cost us in the long run so we will just have to grit our teeth and get on with it
I have written the necessary email about the claim against us and we have agreed that there is no point in worrying about it just have to deal with it one day at a time and at the end of the day it is only money although this month has been particularly bad with money disappearing at a frightening rate I know it will even out over the year but it is scarey all the same
But a regular pay packet would help so much if you are listening Universe

Sorry you've had a bad day, cappuccino and soak sounds like it did the trick. I really must look into decent coffee maker again, I got a bit side tracked.Debts at LBM - Mortgages £128497 - non mortgage £27497 Debt now £[STRIKE]114150[/STRIKE][STRIKE]109032[/STRIKE] 64300 (mortgage) Credit cards left 0

Very tough day for you, DT, and I'm sorry to hear it. I had a little bit of a hiccup this week, but am back to normal now, and its like chalk and cheese, isn't it - the resources you have to deal with this carp are so much *more* when you feel rested and invigorated.
Hope you feel like that tomorrow.

Sorry to hear about the email DT, but at least with replies so quickly hopefully the end will come sooner too.

DT I'm such a muppet, I thought you had gone quiet and only now have realised you have a new diary. I need to catch up but hugs and XXX's re the claim and the Spanish stuff for now.
