    Thank you so much Lilty/MeandO - as awful as it is that you both have experience of this with your mums, (I'm so sorry for that :() it was a helpful reminder that you guys will be here to support through that too if it is bad news....ugh I am getting really nervous about that now too, I can't predict how I'll cope if it's bad.. but have to remember it's just dealing with things as they come and no extreme negative reactions are necessary (nor helpful).... cbt..cbt.. cbt! x

    hi levi, ANOTHER long term lurker & reader here, using a new ID for this, i had a thought in middle of the night, could we set up a "go fund me" to sort out your over draft or credit card 1? you have so many people that care about u and ll if we pulled together in small amounts it could really help u XXXXXX

    hey penguini! thanks for the unlurk. no idea how that would work actually... but I am flattered by the idea of it (and that you were thinking of me in the middle of the night lol) ...and how amazing you all are never fails to astound me. xx

  • You could self-manage, but just keep it in the back of your mind as a potential yeah?

    I was talking to my Dad about you last night and my recommendation to you about foodbank when you were thinking of a payday loan. Dad has the power to write foodbank vouchers for the local foodbank and he said in your situation with the extra cost of going to your Mum's for appts he wouldn't hesitate to write a voucher for you so that your food budget could be freed up to cover the extra travel costs without getting into debt trouble. So, just so you know, worth keeping in mind (I can PM you what you'd get in a Trussell Trust box).

    How are the sunflowers?

    Thanks so much for this Mars, yes please do PM me about the box that would be great.
    The sunflowers are looking perky today! All four standing up straight and getting taller. FGN said she will keep an eye on them while we are at my mums and water if needed, but I'll have to do my snap update next week instead - at least it will give some more time for a bit more progress to be seen hopefully :)xx

    Glad the sunflowers are doing well :T (you could have ended up in the Tower otherwise :rotfl:)
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
