**Cold, Cold Day**

 
Morning everyone!!
hope everyone is have a good week so far..
I went to Natwest and I got my account, debit account, so its a start
So that's cool :) It has been so cold its unreal, and just now I have been getting
into a bad routine by staying up real late and sleeping all morning and some of the afternoon..
So it got to 5am this morning and I thought stuff it I'm gonna stay up all day
and go to bed early tonight to get back into a *normal routine*
*hopefully*
 
I'm trying to stop myself from feeling really down and even more depressed rite now.
I hate it!! but there is nothing I can do I need to try and keep my head up and
think positive.. *sometimes easier said than done*
I dunno what it is at the moment I just feel like well like shit really,
I wish I dint, I do have depression and anxiety (that's two of the reasons I'm signed on to ESA)
I really dunno where I'm going with this I feel very lifeless the
last few days that's why I haven't been on here much.
*I dunno if anyone reads my blog anyway, I see people come on here oh I dunno lol*
when I use to feel down or something wasn't rite I use to head straight to my craft room
and scarp about it about anything just chill out
to Rod Stewart at the same time.. rite now its a bit hard to do that :)
I have not received any stash yet from all the kind people on UKS that have offered to help me out
*I'm not moaning, please don't think I am, I'm just saying*
So I'm still awaiting on that,
 
ITS CHRISTMAS!!
is it?
where?
really?
I dunno you tell me I'm trying to get a loan to have a Christmas,
I have been accepted for a little loan from the JC but that's for the things I need like
clothes and furniture, dunno what furniture or how many clothes they expect me to get
on £243 but hey once I got the bed I think ill be able to get socks lol
*once again not moaning just saying, should we just call it blubbering*
*just because I can and maybe I need to, you tell me?*
Just tell me to shut up at any time please, just push the big *X* at the top of the screen
and ill be gone ha-ha,
wish I could *X* out of my head sometimes :)
 
And then there's my cat Minxy,
of course you know we are going to spend *Christmas* with my family
and Minxy will have to stay here as my family all have dogs and its too far to take her,
Dean our other housemate was meant to be looking
after the little moo,
he promised us he will look after her including:
- Feeding *3 times a day, half meat half biscuit's*
- Changing the litter in the tray everyday *twice if needed*
- She sleeps in his room over night *she does with us and she loves her cuddles at night*
- Lots of cuddles oh and clean water twice a day!
I thought that was standard? *maybe its just me*
he was the one that offered to look after her *remember this*
 
I was talking to Trish *housemate* one night and
she told me she needs to tell me because its not fair *so I was like tell me what?*
Dean said to her *about me and Kieran* he said
"they best not ask me to look after there fucking cat, as I will not"
Yeah? right?
and.
"If they do she ain't sleeping in my room she stinks she can stay in the hallways of the house!"
EXCUSE ME!!
 
Yeah ok, when we first got Minxy she did have a smelly bum but that was
because her first owner did not look after her rite or feed her rite,
so its ok now.
fair enough if he don't want her sleeping in her room
*he use to have a cat, lets Minxy and Oscar in his room every day,
OH and Oscar use to sleep in his room every so often*
HMM..
So I don't mind if he told us this but no, he OFFERED to look after my baby girl
and said she will sleep in his room etc. BLAR BLAR BLAR!!
why lie?
Kieran asked him he said Trish is making it up,
came down stairs shouting at Trish trying to intimidate her
*dint work, I was there*
He said he dint say none of that.
I said to him *did you say that you will not have my cat in your room that she will be sleeping in the house in the hallways*
he said YES that's what he said??
ermm
is it just me or did he just come storming and shouting down the stairs to prove he dint
say it and then just admit it straight away?
*Strange*
but he seemed to think that was ok so I told him to leave me alone.
 
And that was it, no one has mentioned it since..
so what do I do?, I don't want Minxy all alone not at all,
I had a feeling he lied before,
as me and Kieran went to Westfest in October *Its a big Rave*
and Dean was meant to look after the little Moo
when we got back at around 7 or 8am
Minxy was downstairs all on her own, really meowing she was shaking and so hungry
*I dint think that was rite, but we put it down to it being her first night without us*
Trish told us that dean left her in the hallway all night
and I don't even think he fed her..
**I know lots of blubbering**
 
I don't know.. am I over reacting to that? I just don't know
can I trust him?
can I leave my little girl with him?
*what other option do I have thou? none*
its been really getting to me.
 
I dunno I'm gonna go ring around my old support worker (for recovery)
and a few other places
as I got a tribunal coming up soon with the Job centre
as I failed my medical
*but they are failing EVERYONE*
but I have appealed it and all the paper work from them came in the post
yesterday with the Job Centres case
and it has really got to me, I'm really worried about it I really am!!
*AGHHH*
So I am ringing round everyone that I have worked with E.G
Support Worker
Recovery Agency
Doctor
Etc...
to ask them to write a letter about me and my troubles or whatever
whatever they know really I have never lied so all the letters/notes
from these people should help me, I hope!
 
Oh and at 4pm I have an appointment with my new support worker
YAY!!
 
Enough blubbering for one day
I will try and pop back later and be a bit more positive
*I hope*
 
Take Care
Leanne

**Another Step Forward, Hopefully**

 
Merry Monday to everyone!!
Im hoping today in another step forward a step towards
what I need and want to sort myself out,
I use to have a bank account with Santander but a few years back
they gave me an overdraft without telling me
I never knew because I always just use to go to the shop and when my card declined
the payment I would go see how much I had,
but this time it did not stop but I only went over by like £15/£20 MAX
but then they add charges on again and again and again.
I made an agreement with them so I pay £5 off a month as I was in a homeless hostel
and on job seekers, They said they will freeze the changes
till I have paid it. They did freeze the charges
for 3 MONTHS!!!
I was told they would be froze till I pay it off but when they say I owe them nearly £300
and I pay £5 a month for 3 months, even I know that don't add up!!
So still to this day I owe them that and we all know it would have gone up a lot more now.
I do plan to sort it after Christmas but they have to give me time
im not made of money!!
 
Until then I do need a bank account and Netwest said they will open me
an account if I take in my birth certificate along with all my other ID.
I got home that day to find my BC missing!!
It was only a copy because a few years back the Job Centre LOST
my original BC :(
So my mum came to the rescue with a copy, but now this one is missing..
But guess who came to the rescue this time??
That's it my mum, it came through the post on Saturday
So now im going to go to Netwest and hope they will stick to there word??
will they?
I dunno, I hope so!!
Will be back later to let you know..
Fingers crossed people!!
 
Hope you all have a brill Monday!!
 
Keep Smiling, Take Care

**Can Anyone help?**

  
Hey Peoples!!
 
I just went to install the programs for my camera on my laptop
and when i went to use the Olympus Studio 2
It would not let me as the trail has ran out?
 
I tried clicking the - Buy Now - Button but it took me to the
Olympus homepage but I could not for the life of me find what i was looking for
I just want to know how much it is for when I have the money spare to get it?
Can anyone help me with this at all?
 
 
I woke up at 7am this morning to the cat purring in my ear AGAIN!!

I'm doing some voluntary work today, Its for the food bank here,
As when we had no money at all even thou I dint want to go
But they helped us with a load of food and I can
never thank them enough.
 
So I decided to do some voluntary work for them every so often when they need it.
So I best go get ready then ain't I?
 
I would be so grateful if any of you could help me with my little problem at the top?
Hope you have a good day!

**Losing A Housemate, Gaining Oscar**

 
I had a chat with my housemate last night, She has informed me
that she has been looking for a new place to live,
She wants her own place again and wants to be independent.
So fair play to her I wish her all the luck.
She told me she went to see a flat/bedsit in town (Only about 10/15 mins walk away)
Its actually the place me and Kieran looked at the same day we looked
at this place before we moved here,
So I know where it is and what its like,
Its small very small but it will be ok for one person,
She also told me that she wont be allowed to take Oscar (the ginger & white cat)
** For those of you that don't know its only Minxy that is our cat**
And said she would have to rehome him!
I stopped her there..
The thought of splitting up Minxy & Oscar is heart breaking as it is,
the cats are best mates / lovers
they love each other, they wait for each other every morning,
depending who wakes up first the cat waits at the door for the other one to come out
Minxy goes mad every morning to go see Oscar
and same for him...
I could not split them up myself it would be too painful :(
So I stopped her there and asked where Oscar is going to go,
she told me her care/support worker might
have him if not she will have to rehome him..
(NO!)
I was not having that I told her we would have Oscar (without even asking Kieran HA)
I cant split them two up would be like splitting up Ant & Dec
**Its just not rite**
So when she moves we will be having Oscar, least we all know
he will be happy, settled, looked after & loved
She might be moving before Christmas if not it will be just after.
so we will be losing a housemate/friend but gaining Oscar..
I don't mind I'm happy about keeping Oscar here I hate the idea
of keeping them two apart its just, its not fair.
I will still she Trish at her new place or she will still come here,
so she will still see Oscar..
 
Okay!! it is very late I need to get up early tomorrow
as I got to get a train and go get my camera!!
**Woopieeee**
So I'm off to make a yummy Horlicks and get some zzz's
 
Keep Smiling, Take Care

** Kind People**

 
All the lovely people on UKS are still as I remember
Lovely!! very kind!! and well really supportive
I was a bit on edge about opening up and telling people where I went wrong
but I'm glad I did I don't want to be acting like I'm someone I'm not
I am who I am I have made a few mistakes and took the wrong path at times
but I am still me I'm back to myself now.
 
I have nothing against anyone who thinks bad of me for opening up on here
and telling people what I went through,
I understand all the bad words and thoughts you have had towards me
but I use to think what your thinking so I am not gonna let
any one get to me who is trying to make me feel bad for talking openly
on my own blog :)
so if you don't like me or what I have done and don't want to give me a
chance then don't read my blog, don't follow me like you say..
that's your choice people and I have nothing against your choice :)
I just hope you never make mistakes like I did.
 
But now back to the kind people on UKS
I asked for help to get back to crafting and the UKS members
have offered to help me, I am so grateful to them
it means so much to me that people are willing to help and that they have taken time
to come and read my blog to get to know me, and leaving
such kind, thoughtful and inspirational words and comments,
it really helps me get back on my feet and when I'm feeling down
I will go back to them words and remember all the support. 
So I just want to say a big thank you to all of you!!
 
I am so looking forward to tomorrow as I get my camera back YAY!!
at the moment my camera is in the worse place ever,
CASH CONVERTERS!!
The biggest con place going but I put it in there just under a year ago
when I had no money but because I had a habbit I never had the money spare
to get it out as I when I put it in there I asked for
£120 of them on buy back
so that meant to keep it in there every month I had to pay £39
to keep it of pay £169 to get it out but back then I never had the money spare
to get it out so I had to do whatever I could to carry it over another month
but fair play to my fiancé as he made sure every month that
we had the money to keep it.
But now I have the money to get it out!! YES at last!!
I cant wait to get my Olympus E420!!
I got it for my 18th birthday from my family, So I felt so bad
for putting it in cashys that's why I did not tell my family that it was in there
my mum knew (after a while) but I did not want my nan or my auntie knowing
but now I am getting it out we can take it down to see them
for Christmas and get some new pictures,
and get some pictures of me and my partner, as we have no
Pictures of us together yet!!
So I cant wait to get it tomorrow...
 
I will take some pictures soon and share them with you
Keep Smiling, Take Care

** Back On UKS**

 
I am so glad I am back on UKS, After all this time I cant wait to get back into
Card making & Scrapbooking :D I love it I need to get started soon
I got itching feet (or should I say fingers ha ha)
its time to set my head to it get some great blogging going on
and get back to myself..
I started Card Making & Scrapbooking around 5 years ago, but because of all the
things that have happened in my life the last couple of years
I have not been able to do my crafting and I miss it.. oh I miss it so much
I use to love it I still do, I just need to get a new stash and start again really.
Now that I am settled in a new home with my partner I need to
get back to crafting I use to spend so much time
doing all sorts of crafty little things
trying now LO's and just trying new things altogether like boxes, books
candles and well just anything I could play around with and make look better
more interesting even with just a little bit of glitter
or ribbon.. oh I miss is so much I have to get back to it soon I really do
its like a whole part of my life missing ha ha
sounds mad huh?
if your a crafter you will understand you actually do get itchy hands :D
 
Im gonna go look around at some great crafty blogs I have found
bye for now bloggers!!
 
Keep Smiling, Take Care
