  • Thank you I dont feel positive really :rotfl: I still feel sick with worry :o

    Im sure it will get sorted and I will be ok. Income support paid £23 in my bank yesterday (I only realised when I checked this morning if my Child Benefit had gone in) Strange :cool:

    Plans for today is Doctors and sort a CV out, and of course my general cleaning and I have a bit of ironing to do.

    Happy Valentines all :)
  • Ok I didnt do doctors today I must do it tomorrow my meds run out Thursday.

    I think I need to start writing myself lists again to keep me motivated, Im being so lazy and not getting any "extras" other than my general routine done :o

    Mum took the kids for new (Lexi's first) shoes yesterday for their Birthday presents, so with the clothes from the kids vouchers and her buying shoes at least the kids are sorted now for a good few months :) One thing of my mind. She also dropped a cake in today so I have one for Friday for Lexi Cam wants to eat it now LOL

    Small spend day today £1.69 for bread and potatoes but should be able to make the food stretch aleast another week now :) I hope so at the 2 hour trip to the shops ha!

    Im becoming obsessed with weighing myself (Not good :o) I need to give my scales back to my mum or something lol

    I'm a list person. My little brain can't cope with work stuff, house and children!!

    Don't forget you've had a very busy few weeks with moving and work, so don't feel bad about having a little 'slow' time. And yes, make sure you get to the docs!!! :)
    One step at a time ;)

    My slow time seems to be lasting longer than my mind can cope with :rotfl::rotfl:
  • Just remember how far you've come in a short time . You've managed a huge amount looking after 2 children and moving house . I know things are harder ATM but you can come thru this . Things WILL get better . PLEASE go and see your dr even if it's just someone to talk to . At my darkest time sat and cried couldn't even talk once I went in to see mine and he was fab . Your not showing weakness but that you need a bit of help and that's what they are there for. Sending you loads of HUGS ( can't find the wee man Sorry)

    I agree, I love my lists even if they do drive DH round the bend.
