    Am ok just not a lot to report.It's just a very hard month due to losing that money and am not due money from DD until 10th of April (It's her board money thats allocated to shopping and that's the actual money I lost).Every other penny coming in is allocated to other bills so nothing spare for shopping...ahh well.

    Had Lymphodema treatment every day last week and next lot will be June.

    Sent my medical form back the other week for my ESA and guess I'll hear what's happening when they are good and ready.

    diet completely out of the window since losing the money and gained a fair bit I think through eating crap food.

    I've been doing my course which needs to have this section finished by friday.I went in today and did the last two assignments and a practice test.Did this without revision and only scored 67%.I need 75% for a pass so tomorrow will be spent revising and then Thursday I'll go and sit the test and hopefully pass...then it'll be on to presentations next.

    The sofas I ordered 7th November(and paid in full for) still haven't arrived !!!! They got delayed due to factory shutting for Christmas for 3 weeks and I was promised a couple of weeks ago that I'll definitely receive them by end of March and this was confirmed again last week.I cannot see them arriving as end of march is Sat and they haven't even phoned me to arrange the delivery.
    I am getting really peed off with them and am debating asking for my money back if they aren't here by Saturday.I paid on my CC so will have protection their I guess and there's also trading standards.I wish that I'd bought from a big national chain rather than an independant very established local retailer.I will call them tomorrow to see what's happening.

    Sorry to hear things are so tough for you. I would contact the sofa dealer and see if they can give you some cash back as you've waited so long.

    Sorry to hear about the sofa's that must be a pain in the butt ... Atleast with getting 67% and not having done any studying then you only need to pull 8% ... I'm sure you will get alot more than that though ... Not long till the 10th April fingers crossed it arrives without anymore hic ups
