90 laps @PeppyPatti ?

I think you are awesome @GezzaP

I just am the least study university person in the world.
but -

My oldest son is doing his PhD. I’m proud of him - he went to live with my brother when he was 15 and he chose this. I just want to be his mum but he wants to hang out with other people these days …. Probably good because my mi is not strong

Why not apply for a disability pension it’s more than the dole @TAB ? . Or you could try single parent allowance ha ha that’s more again (humour alert). Just hang in there for aged pension I guess. Dole is ridiculously low. I was on it for a few years. Thinking of selling some stuff to bring in some extra dollars. You got stuff you could sell?

@PeppyPatti hey PP, enjoy swimming tomorrow.

@GezzaP @TAB hey cool friends, winding down for the night. Hope you both happy with your Sunday started gym today. Guess need to watch diet from now ha. Helped mum to her bed. Hope you both get good sleep. Nite

Thanks @PeppyPatti . PhD is 1 o/o intelligence and 99 o/o pig headedness. I did it before I had my first bipolar episode. I struggle to focus these days. Can’t write anymore. Have thought of trying to write fiction instead. Hard to get motivated. I do my Spanish lessons though everyday. Time to head off to bed.

Sure you are CORRECT @TAB

90 laps in my mind 20 on a very tiny pool 2 ways

Good night @Bunniekins off to bed got an appt in the morning. Love GezzaP

..my labor ? re selling , just not sure its worth much these days re health @GezzaP

I'm buying on ebay, not selling lol. ok sold car battery and few aircons had change of plan with a while back.

dole is shit still , but near double what it was b4 covid ok 25% more doesnt take much $50 here ,$50 there and now back on CPI

my saving grace is house clear and free ie no rent plus asset. still got $30k of inheritance left . thats taken a beating.

I spend too much if was down toNo top-ups I would still get by. plus could re mortagage house , and spend it, but like when am about to die lol

yes have got professionals looking into pension application for me . only hope I have is that I have been with disabilityjob network rated at capable of 15hrs /wk for years , so that changes the criteria dramatically as I understand ie need 20 pt overall not 20 pts in a single category eg MH so if I can get someone to sign off on say 5 for something 10 for something and another 5 it could work in theory

its a lot of trouble to go to for like $300/fortnight , but when on $860 its a lol

Night @Meowmy . I’m off to bed myself. Sweet dreams.
