Great news on the Council Tax being sorted. That must be a weight off your mind.
Added security measures are always a good idea but the Council really should have fixed your roof by this time. They seem a bit lax in their responsibilities at times.
Have a good evening. xxxHave adventures. laugh a lot and always be kind.0 -
Pleased you have the ct sorted :beer: hopefully the councillor will get back to help with your other issues too.January spends - £587.580

Thank you
It lifts a huge weight of my shoulders again and releases the last of the old debt issues. Just the new debt to clear and then I'll be fully relieved but still a lot less stress than homelessness or baliffs. I feel so lucky to be where I am even if I do still worry about it. It's a lot less of a weight than it was.
Everyone's in bed and sleeping. DD was asleep by 6.30 - will teach her for being up so late last night :rotfl:
I'm ready for bed myselfcould fall asleep right now but I need to do my floors yet.
Thank you again for all stopping in x“Once you hit rock bottom, that's where you perfectly stand; That's your chance of restarting, but restarting the way.”0 -
Glad you've managed to sort the CT out and nice to read everybody is asleep, especially DD2 :eek: :rotfl:
Hope now you know what you're doing the rest of the week will be less stressful for you. xx0 -
Good news re the CT - thats a big weight off, especially the thought of bailiffs being involved. Hope you can have an earlyish night after the floors get done :cool:0

So pleased to read things are sounding more positive xx

I'm really pleased that you've managed to get the CT paid, that must be a huge relief for you
.
I'm glad you're having security locks, lighting, etc, fitted, although as someone else said I'm sorry that you need them.
I hope you get a good night's sleep tonight.

It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.
