I don't know
I didn't think they were that good.
Have you seen the ginger tinge to his face and the fact he has some shine coming?

Hello Melly . Sorry to hear about the job but I do wonder if you need to get your health sorted a little before looking for work . I don't know if your husband is receiving esa at the moment , I seem to recall he is without pip at the moment hence the appeal . Was your job centre visit to look for work ? I am unsure if you are on esa yourself . Sorry for all the questions and no pressure to reply - totally your business . I get confused as to what is what ( not hard for me ! ) and the cat pictures divert my concentration but I love them
Glad LBG is a lot better , did you get to speak to her owner ?
Take care love

We have a joint esa claim at the assessment rate.
Assessment is 13th September and is me.
Job centre was to drop fit note off.
I know we can move to income support and I can claim carers allowance for OH if I can get PIP reinstated.
I can hear my dad though lol so really need to work.
It's not her cat! There is an identical cat that is the cat I confused with LBG. She's much better though thankfully
Ty is the most affectionate sloppy boy, as affectionate as pickle he loved a huge cuddle he chokes a lot when he purrs.
OH didn't go to sleep till 11am
He got up about an hour ago0 -
Hi Melly thanks for your reply . I was just asking as I was wondering if there was some way you could manage for a short while while sorting the pip , getting some help for your husband and also help for yourself . However without the pip it may be impossible . Daughter has never had to claim rent or council tax so I don't know much about those benefits . I worry that you sound and look really exhausted .
Do you get to sleep while husband is awake at night ?
I understand about dads voice and the work ethic but if there was any way you could manage for a short time you could listen to your body instead and stop running yourself ragged all the time .
Easy to say I know but you do need things to slow down a little .
Gentle hug

I sleep a bit not as much as I would like.
My size is the main worry I think Polly I admit, I am about to have a sausage and some fried tomatoes though
No everything hinges on PIP
Housing benefit thankully they have awarded fully council tax is fine this year, I'm arguing about the last 3 months of last year's (I was ill, not earnings and they awarded HB for that period)
Enough about me
How beautiful is Ty0 -
LBG has been in
Nicely scabbed
Redness gone
So I am happy about that. She is also not living where I thought so back to the drawing board (paper collar when she's better)
Isnt Stripeytigerbabies looking better?
He is actually a very handsome cat0 -
Sending hugs.
Lack of sleep and disturbed sleep routine will help no-one.
If your OH wants to get better then trying to get a sleep routine will really help. If it is a step too far for him at the moment then perhaps you can insist that he respects your sleep. There is a reason sleep deprivation is used as a torture method. It also really clouds your ablility to think.
I don't know, but if you google 'cat pics' you will see eleventy hundred. I don't know about selling them, but it may be worth doing something that carries advertising. Regardless, you are getting lots of loves from your furry friends and that is wonderful and worthwhile in and of itself.
Or I could be talking rubbish. I always look forward to the pics of the furry ones.
