    Hi everyone and thank you.

    Things are still not sorted and I am really not sure how long until we know an outcome of the situation. It is DD's birthday today so trying to make it special for her and not wish this year away. Have got the tree down as she wants to decorate it tonight. She enjoyed her day out yesterday with a friend at Go Ape.

    We never got to go on our London trip, gave the tickets away to a friend who lives there. Got a partial refund on the train tickets, spent that on a Fitbit for myself to try and get me moving again, will admit to hiding away lately. It said last night I woke up 13 times, feels like it too, so tired.

    Going back into work a few days this week. Have only been once in the last few weeks. They have been amazing and even told me not to go back until the New Year and they would pay me still, but I need to get back to some normality. All our friends and family have been amazing, even if they do keep telling me I look like s**t :rotfl:

    Haven't sat down and done a budget for the month yet, that's my job for tomorrow. Will be another tight I'm sure.

    If I'm not back soon, I hope everyone has an enjoyable Christmas and New Year x
