Day 28

Last day of Week 4... Wow! Hope for some good results at my next weigh in ;) I thought I should probably post quickly now as I'm going away for the rest of the day :( I don't really want to go to my in laws' house, as errm we've had some issues lol. Generally I used to get along with them okay, but not since moving back home (and having several aspertions (sp??) cast upon me!). Anyhoo, the kids want to see their dad and vice versa and the in laws' are going OS tomorrow, so they won't be around for a few weeks anyway. However, I still can't really be bothered driving up for about the 4th week in a row... OMG my poor car needs servicing, which I can't afford, and I really don't appreciate having to drive an extra 300km or so EACH WEEK which is adding to my mileage and costing me $$$. I am trying to drive LESS. Most days I don't need to drive at all, as I work from home, so it's usually just to go shopping, take kids to sports etc.

I REALLY need to get on and make some $$$ cause I'm spending more on groceries than the government is giving me as family assistance. Of course, they should be giving me more as I'm not living with my husband, but I think someone at Centrelink messed up there... because I'm getting the same as when we were living together. And as my income is REALLY low lol I should be getting more. At least 100% of family assistance B... of which I am not getting 100% of. If that makes bad grammatical sense. Mind you, I don't like relying on social security, but until I start generating more income it is most of what I get. I get some from freelancing...I do need to get more freelance jobs so I can earn more though. My savings are fast vanishing...I did have some of my tax return (from when I actually earned money) stashed away, but the amount is going down. As soon as I get an electricity bill or get my car serviced, that will be it and I'll be relying on my Visa card. NOT GOOD!
