why does everything cost money, we sorted the car after it was broken into cost us £300.00, pound because we decided to fit a alarm at the same time, since then our bath broke needs replacing the washing machine broke beyond repair waiting on social services to see if they can help then after a good week sitting watching the tv with th family our lights have failed trip is ok its a enternal problem the electrican sugets waiting untill the morning for someone to come out because he will charge a £100.00 just come out now and to make it safe , so on his advice on going to bed tonight we are going to trip the lights so nothing else will go wrong and phone the company tomorrow to get someone to repair the fault just so scared how much this is going to cost i have only my child benifit tomorrow as i dont get paid untill next week , on the inside im screeming on the outside im crying my hubbys brother and sister was here and they just sat there while we tried to sort it out ,
how much more can go wrong before things start to improve ,we still got to attend court to explain why we cant make payments on the mortgage but the money we have comming in isnt enough to do everything just hope he or she can make the pricess of taking the house as stress free as possible as i dont now how this going to efect hubby or myself

I'm hoping that things will start to improve for you soon. I know finances can be such a stressor for a lot of people, and it often makes things worse at times.

Please try to hang in there.

Wow, Kathryn,

You are really having a time of it, that's for sure...At times like this, you and your family just have to sit back and decide together--do we raise our income or give something up? It's an awful place to be, but together you can get through it!

Thinking of you,
DJ

You sure have a lot to deal with, sorry you have to go through that. It must be very stressful.

I hope things start going well for you soon. Try to take things one day at a time.

As "Roseann Roseanna Danna" (played by Gilda Radner on the original Saturday Night Live) used to say "If it's not one thing, it's another!"

Ok, I think you've had your quota of "things" - time for the upswing now. what next

Thinking of you....
