Hi there Jelly
Long time no speak. Just been catching up on your diary. Holy cow, your year makes mine look well tame.
congrats on selling your house, that must have given you some relief,.
So very sorry to hear about your FIL. If no one in the family has money for a funeral, you can get a funeral benefit to pay (or help pay for it). Not sure who would apply for it MIL?
So have a look at that eh
chevI want a job that is less than an hour driving away from my house! Are you listening universe?

Well after all that mil did have the money for the funeral which was good. Bad thing is she is terminally ill with braest cancer she didnt tell anyone and it has eaten her breast away and spread through her lymph nodes. She has been put on tablets for pallative care and also has been diagnosed withe dementia. This year so far has been shocking. Husband then told this morning he hasnt paid his tax bill and has 8500 in debts on the business and the business is going down. Time to get rid of as it isnt going to get any better as recession down here has hit and dont think it will come out of it no matter what he tries. hopefully he wil be able to get a job. Trying really hard to hold it all together but think im drowning in it all. Just cant believe that mum and mil have both got breast cancer and fil dies all in 3 months. At least i got to look forward to being a granny lol hope you all ok xxxxx And thankyou for all your advice and concern xxx
Also told hubby to sell his beloved car which i told him last year this time he has no choice!!!!!!! esp now its all paid for.Mum 30k/29000

Jellybean, so so sorry to hear all of your awful news. What a bloody time of it you are having!!
Focus on the baby and the wedding. Babies are sent to pull us through the bad times, I am sure of it. Something about their newness and pure innocence that pulls you through the bad times.
Sending you a mahoosive hug hunny. Take care and keep posting

Well everyone the debts have made me return will update them soon!!! Daughter had a beautiful baby boy who is now nearly 4 months!! Debts have gone a bit haywire with the wedding but need to start getting them sorted. Mil is getting worse her dementia is getting worse so we have become carers on our days off which has taken its toll. Don't know what will happen when she gets really bad as everyone else says she just needs company I think she needs more but not my mum so don't have a say.
Done a snowball the other day and told 82 years to pay debts realise I made a mistake phew!!!! Need to make headway as arthritis getting bad so need to have less stress x will report bak with debts hope u all well xxzMum 30k/29000
