How is your day going?

@Catherine21 I'm already regretting my vote. I hoped we would be safe with our disability benefits..migrating to UC was a total nightmare. I thought that this would be the hardest change in.my benefits, being told once I moved from ESA SG that I wouldn't receive any of the increases, as the extra money for my disabilities, will eventually be faced out.

Im now fighting the decision by council tax benefit as im apparently no longer entitled to any more than £4.00 a month benefit and i recieved a bill for nearly £400.00 in January to have been paid in full on the 2nd of February, im appealing but ive been told I need to set up a direct debit to start clearing this bill as I'll receive my new bill that will be increasing in April. Ive tried setting up a direct debit to pay what I can afford but I'm only able to have a direct debit that pays my bill in full, or im two halves.

Im totally terrified like everyone else, about how we will manage if the government makes radical changes to PIP, It's not a luxury its what I need to keep a roof over our heads. the council tax advisor i spoke too, told me he was in the same boat and only got the same reduced amount, I pointed out to him that the difference was he was able to work whereas I can't. Scary times ahead for all of us.

I am petrified about being moved to UC and the hassle of doing so and the worse getting less money than what I am getting right now. I rather prefer not to think about it.

I am so so feel rather anxious but not as bad. Weather is bad.

So gloomy. Hoping weather will be better tomorrow.

Hope you are ok so far ..

I am scared about this government. The other one left me in peace a bit but this one seems to only attack the poor and sick. Not fair.

Thank you @Elvisdog,it's annoying isn't it?

One thing after another.

Mr Teigr has treated me to a bottle of Beechams All In One,it makes me gag.

I think I've been cold free for about five days since the end of October @Sandy_123 .

Earlier today I was talking to someone who said she's had cold after cold since Christmas,she was really annoyed about it because it means she's had to stay away from her elderly mum.

Thanks @Sandy_123 ,I'm hoping it's one of those colds that's not too bad after the first couple of days.

What have you been up to today?

I stupidly volunteered to make cakes for my friend's grandson's birthday party,so I've been stuck in the kitchen today.

@Teigr when you give you receive... I take it this way trying to be good always and give as goodness comes back to me . Sometimes. But yes . Sure the cakes will be lovely...

I went for a chest xray, hospital 7 mins away, took 1 hr/roadworks. Could smell burning, thought it was rdworks. Came out of xray and van driver behind waving at me madly. Pulled over/he did too. Load of smoke coming out of driver side front wheel. He followed me told me a safe place to wait, very kind person. Waited 4 hrs for rac. Was the spring gone in shock absorber. He brought my car and me home and they're coming to fix on weds. Too much drama, but very kind people who helped, cried and now gone bed 🥹🙄🥱
