    For an sea assessment you will need to contact them asap to request a home visit, as they are quite difficult to get. I really hope you get one xx

    Couldn't get through

    About to try again

    After dog walk and OH smoothie prep.

    One of our older neighbours knocked on he gets OH to do jobs for him, which OH does and then suffers. He's asleep and his back has gone so I have sent him away.

    We need the money
    OH needs to not make it worse

    Why can't the bumholes just pay it its been 9 months already

    Spoke to them
    They might arrange to do OHs work focused interview via the phone lol.

    They will call me Monday, I have plenty of evidence he can't do it and I'm his appointee so that should be fine.

    Apparently carers allowance will be backdated to Jan, as it is if you have been waiting for a decision on a qualifying benefit

    OH's face has swollen up.

    I think he would actually go to the dental hospital (pain is that bad) if we could get him there lol.

    I am now toying with setting up myself might make it easier.

    I have the qualification and the experience

    So it's worth thinking about properly (insurance would be needed)

    A friend of mine has a consultancy in Manchester, have asked her for an idiots guide to setting up.

    I have found an occupational mental health course http://shop.oxfordcollege.ac/level-3-diploma-courses-diploma-in-organisational-psychology-p-387.html

    I think that's worth adding.
    If I work for me I can do site visits and the rest from home. Means I'm still here most of the time for now
  • You are really working things through. It may work or it may not but you are being so determined and I really admire that!

    Good luck x

    It's why in real life people think I'm ridiculously strong WS Im not but I can cut my losses pretty easily and I am focused most of the time.

    Today we have been a bit pants about eating
    As more gets sorted and there is less chaos I will feel the need to control less (going off rest of my life since I was 7)

    Ty came in whilst I was popping OHS back in, he cured up next to OH. We have decided he is an absolute sweetie.

    His eyes are so much brighter it's insane
