    Bg824 . Oh ok thanks. I’ve no idea what to do other than just answer the questions honestly. I have good days and bad days so I’ll just tell them that. Thank you

    Just to say, I had the call. The guy was very nice. I told him I thought I’d had to say my worst day etc, but now knew that wasn’t right. I was very stressed before he rang with having addissons it meant I had to inject because I don’t have the hormones to help with stress. I told the truth to every question he asked. I did say I wanted to work it was just I couldn’t do 40 hrs. He said not to worry and I’d get a letter in around two weeks time .   I get stressed quite easily since I left him but I got through it , then fell asleep lol.  It wasn’t as bad as I thought. Just like talking to my doctor. So thank you for the support.

    Thank you Hannah and SueHeath.  I told him it’s not money it’s them not pushing me into 40th that my body won’t do. I’m hoping they just leave me to do the hours I’m doing because they are killing me off lol. Anyway time will tell. I’m  not looking for a free ride, just a bit of help is all. Hope u are both well. Beautiful day here. Warm and sunny my x

    star starting to feel colder. I love the snow and the frost , not so keen on hot weather, due to one of my conditions, so this is all perfect working weather for me.  It will get warmer very soon. March is usually a nice month x

    I always feel March is like an October, just without the pretty colours.

    I love the snow too, it's so pretty and it's usually very bright after it's snowed which is lovely :)

    Magical isn’t it. And frost too. I take the dogs out around 5am and it’s like everywhere is twinkling.  It’s feeling colder now. I’ve had to put the heating on . Sky is still blue though. I’ve been wishing for snow x

    SueHeath,yep still online. Just been cooking chicken for the dogs.  Ones a bit off her food. I’ve been resting, can’t do much else really.  I’ve also been doing my house. When I bought it, it was boarderline derelict. I was so desperate though and couldn’t afford to rent. It’s come on loads with help from friends and a very tight budget. 
    Wish I didn’t have osteoarthritis and spondylitis, addissons and possibly around 20 yrs before I’ll need a new kidney. Would be heaven to retire.  
     But good comes with bad. I have a nice little home now, adult children I adore, still have my mum and my lovely dogs . So I count my blessings really. I didn’t tell the man from dwp how bad it can be incase I got into trouble. X
