Can you ask your daughter to give you back the money you gave her earlier in the month/ask for some money to tide you over?


Maybe she might realise that you no longer have a never ending supply of money.

Its a 'carp' time of the year isn't it HB? You're doing well with your signature figures though aren't you? Mine will be carp for a month or two

Please forgive me for saying this but are you putting too much on yourself? Mrs. Brogden and I have been 'antlers locked' for a while but we keep giving in to each other on things and helping each other out......... the debt is all MY problem of course! At the same time its not!

You must be the same aren't you? You do have some assistance don't you?

Thanks guys. Yes got food and just enough fuel.DD has no money left either. She's just hanging on with everything going to pay rents for the stall etc. She's going to see if she can hang in there and get the Christmas sales. It's all very hand to mouth at the moment and really frustrating. We all work so hard and yet we are still struggling. It's ridiculous! OH is helping as well, but this month I feel swamped.
Going to give the carboot a go this morning...standing freezing in the middle of a field selling stuff off for a pittance. That's mad, but needs must, so here goes.
On another not, the solar panels are being fitted on Monday, so at least electricity bills should be reducing over the next year...

Hoping the car boot goes well for you

We have done some really good ones - a lot of 'pittances' can really add up to something that makes a difference to you!

Thanks, Brogden. £35, so at least I'm solvent till Tues. It was a lovely sunny day and I enjoyed being outside having a chat etc. Can't ask for more at the end of October! Cheered up a bit as well.
Now back home getting reorganised. Seeing if I can manoeuvre things around in my 'workroom' so I can get in there to work instead of leaving a trail around the house.
Happy Sunday, everyone.
