    That's fine, it was worth a go at getting another mortgage cleared in exchange for not a lot, needless to say at less than market rent.

    GL on finding a new home Pastures :beer:

    ETA: Why's the NPT been so quiet today? :eek:
    This is more like its usual speed. I suspect the holiday season's started for some!:D

    I did post earlier but thought better of it and deleted it.
    We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.
    Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.

    I've been Money Tipped!
    I have been busy moving stuff about with dh. Our house looks a tip as we try to de clutter and prep for builders.

    Tired and feeling like we are getting no where fast!

    Having moved entire households several times in the past month .... I can empathise with this. I don't even put anything away or get it out of the box as it minimises the chances of accidentally overlooking something if it's in a cupboard.... you look and know it needs to be done ... and then you think ... pffft ... wonder what's on the NP thread...

    As mentioned a couple of days ago, I still haven't sorted all my stuff out...and I've been back here months now!
    It's mainly in my room (so I minimise my chances of being told off), which now looks like a cross between a jumble sale and one of those programmes about hoarders.
    I'm blaming it on a cross between laziness and not wanting to admit I might be here for a while rather than just as a stop gap.

    Was reading recently about how China has about 30,000 people working in the weather control industry. They put a lot of hard work into making sure the Olympics opening ceremony wasn't washed out by ensuring the rain was falling at least 20 miles away.

    Now with British technophobia and organisation and tendency to just moan about and put up with the weather, I'd recommend we all stock up with umbrellas from poundland and zoom over to the Olympic venues and make an absolute killing.:D
