I've had £200 paid from ex. Moved it straight out to the EF. That's less than the amount ex thought was a fair price to pay for his DD, the amount he thought was fair was £250 and yet here we are. A game of control once again. I choose not to take part in his games nor respond. I've moved the money out and will wait on a CMS letter.
Work at 10 today and I'll take the car myself as DP has work to catch up on after a week off. He must be exhausted though as I heard him up in the night coughing....then I started coughing too 🙈 I'm praying I don't get a cold like he's had as he's not stopped coughing for a whole week so far.
On my work group chat we've got four off sick already this morning....when will the colds beggar off, we've had enough now. I've already had two since beginning of term.
DP won't find out more about his job until tomorrow he's been told so we're waiting on tenterhooks, alongside many others no doubt.
Right best get ready, my lunch is done though and I've everything ironed so nice easy day hopefully 😊.1 -
Glad you've had some monies for the Ex and well done for moving it straight to the EF and not engaging any further .... (a complete waste of time!).
Sorry to hear about the coughing. Lots of water and Vitamin C!
Where have you got to on your foot? I have rather lost the thread on that.
