    Hi again,

    Thanks for the lovely welcome.

    Nat what a horrid situation for you - have a hug:grouphug: could you postpone your trip to London for a bit? Kids are usually good at accepting things if you explain. You could have a cheaper day on the day and go to London another time (when the weather might be better too!)

    Nothing to report today income wise but have spent a £25 B&Q voucher that ex OH gave me at Christmas, so gained a few things for no money which is always nice:D and it was stuff I would have bought so not spending for the sake of it.

    Forgot to say I do AVON - delivery is due tomorrow, so will have a few extra pennies when I give out my orders. I'm quite good at not giving my profits back to AVON, which I think is the trick ;)

    I'm thinking of selling a couple of gold rings to those gold buying places has anyone any experience of this. One is my wedding ring which is I'm feeling a bit odd about as I was married for nearly 25 years but figure I don't need the ring but I do need to pay off my debt...!

    Things, can only get bettta, can only get bet-tttta, now I've found MSE...:D

    Had a word with mother and she's outraged I would even consider asking them for money, said it was my car, my petrol and my room so I should pay for it all. I do wonder why I bother.

    And yep, think I offended Lady Luck along the way...

    Hun (((((((hugs))))))) does seem a bit 'why bother' doesn't it, I can't believe your Mum said that though. Is her head not straight with just having a family funeral or is this a normal response hun? I dunno. :mad:

    Things can onleeeee get be-tter! And if they don't you can always have a really big chocolate bar and a bottle of wine on Friday night :D
  • Not much today...found 25p in my coat pocket...
    Hope everyone else did better.
