Single, six kids and going to be debt free!

That is one of if not the quickest turnarounds for PIP that I have ever heard of apart from under the special rules.

Yes it was for daily living that I got awarded according to my housing benefit award. They have already added on the severe disability premium to my housing benefit award as well. I can’t believe it was so quick. I only phoned on 7th May and I have been awarded from 14th May according to housing benefit. I’m am so happy as it takes the pressure off having to earn at least £604 a month to lift the benefit cap.

So pleased for you.

Its all going on with you! 
Hope you survived your early run, i'm always better at doing things early in the morning as i'm very much a morning person  
Excited for you for the caravan, peaceful space to do what you enjoy

I did indeed survive my early morning run. I think I am a mix of early morning person and late at night person. It is normally the middle of the day that I struggle with!

In money news, my first pip payment arrived in my bank today! I still haven’t received the letter though!

Glad the pip was sorted quickly for you. I haven't even looked at the esa yet, I really need to as I don't get SSP but its a scray process (in my mind anyway)
Well done on the run, I've managed to drag myself out of bed and make 2 cups of tea 🤣.
Have a lovely day.

So pleased to hear you got the Pip awarded and so quickly. Looking forward to hearing all about the caravan. You really are quite inspirational. I am in awe that you would go and collect a caravan and tow it back to your house then manoeuvre it into your garden. That would be major achievement for most people (certainly for me)  and you seem to be just taking it in your stride. Hope it all goes to plan.

So caravan is home and on driveway but not quite in the place where I finally want it. It was a struggle to get it on the driveway so it will stay there for a couple of days until I get some friends round to help me move it socially distanced of course. It towed absolutely fine which is a relief. However we may have had a little accident with the brick post at the end of the driveway. The post is still standing but needs a little TLC shall we say.

Caravan is fabulous though and is a little bigger than I expected, but currently has three of the kids sitting out there in it. They love it already. It might get taken off me by the kids! However, they should get bored with it quickly and then I can get on and get it renovated.

Congrats on the PIP!👍
Great news on the fab caravan!  I think you're right - you're gonna lose it to the kids for a while!😀
