Good Afternoon @Judi9877,

Sounds like you had a pleasant afternoon planned yesterday. I love being at home in all this rain and cold weather.  

Sorry to read you have had sinusitis - hope you feeling a lot better very soon.

Hope Monday is being kind to you. Always look forward to reading your posts.

Best wishes,

FloatingFeather

When do you get a hold on your Super @TAB it will make a big difference in your life after all these expenses going interstate, your car, then moving yeah? Maybe something can be sorted out. 

Have you heard of No Interest Loans? (NILs) 

You get a lump sum and pay no interest!!! I've heard you can adjust your repayments according to your ability to pay as its specifically designed for folks with low incomes.

You go to your local citizens advice bureau and ask them to send you to a centre that hosts NILs (they are usually neighborhood houses and community centres or charitable agencies) You fill out a form and they give you the money.

I've heard of folk getting loans for big purchase items such as cars.

Just something to bear in mind as an option if the budget gets stretched 💙

Thought I'd mention if youre still strapped for cash after last months ordeal interstate

Thanks @SmilingGecko
Yes have heard of NILS but need to be in debt and/or buying something from my recollection ie borrower doesn't usually get cash. And they wont loan for expenses

Does anyone else's emotions fluctuate during the day?

I am finding I am on top of the world one minute and optimistic

Then the next minute I feel crap.

I've been reading a lot about trauma lately. I think it has helped me gain a better understanding of myself.

Maybe it's normal with this thing called depression
