  • Hmm have asked at work in October for an occ health referral. Asked again about it in December. Reminded my manager on monday. No one has even said anything. I am desperate not to go off sick. Making me more anxious.

  • Ebay is up to 9.49 so far. if they all pay thats another almost tenner I can chalk up for the greater good.

    Great idea to add the eBay and survey income to your signature. I almost died when I saw what I had made on eBay over a year!

  • Todays update is brought to you by the letter c and the number 5.

    That's my sesame street moment! :rotfl:

    5.97 paid so far from ebay sales (sig updated), and transferred to card balances. 1.68 paid off Amex (sig updated) and more to come.

    Made 2 paper logs but didnt shred any more paper so wont be able to make any tonight, will try and do extra shredding. Did some surveys and some ironing though and went to the other house and got some ebay to photograph tonight.

    Still no word from the solicitor apart from to confirm that they will need 400 pounds up front for the general fees. fair enough.

    So I will prep some ebay tonight and package some which I need to send. I will do a few surveys and a little bit comping as well.

    I will also try and keep focussed.

    Went to see the GP they would prefer it if I wasnt at work. I said I need to go to work. I have spoken to the union and if I dont get a referral by the end of the week I will ask them to do it. It doesnt go well for my management if they are seen to be ignoring the issue. I am really trying and I find the situation is uncomftable and embarrassing and its being made more so by me being forced to ask repeatedly and being ignored.

    :(

    Not all doom and gloom. I am going to really attack these debts. In fact, am looking forward to it.

  • Sorry I have been reading but not had chance to post what with sickly kids and work .

    So sorry you are struggling so much, it oes sound as though you need a break from work, but as you say needs must and all that.

    Lovely to see Gargrave popping by, I havent got my ebay sales in my signature but I think I made a fair bit last year, guessing in the region of £700 ish maybe more. Shes got me thinking now !

    Loved the Sesame Street moment, you showing your age, or is it still ont he tele ?! :D

  • Lol dodgy typing is fine. Thanks for popping in. x it is nice to see Julie about, shes so busy being the flying Midwife these days.

    Showing my age I am afraid, I know I should be off work but I need to try and get past the hurdle.

    I know I need a little help.

    Pfft!

    Yes she is indeed the flying Midwife, but sounds as though shes having the time of her life ! Maybe we should jack all this in and descend on her ! :rotfl:

    Admitting you need a little help is good, I always pretended I could take on the world and his wife, run a couple of businesses, deal with hubby away in war zones and keep an imaculate show home amongst other things and be the shoulder to cry on for everyone elses problems. It didnt really do me the world of good to be honest, I ended up a total fruitloopy stresshead. :eek:

    You must look after yourself or you will be no good to man nor beast. x
