Re: Anxious about not having a job and getting scammed
I get it @ArraDreaming Been doing the same for a long time. Living on my own, trying to pay all the bills and the ever increasing mortgage has been really hard - and I have a full time job so I do not know how you do it 😢. Last week I inadvertedly paid one of my insurances for the year and not monthly - which meant I was hundreds behind. I had to ask my family for money until pay day 😢

You also have 3 kids @ArraDreaming so that makes it even tougher. But you are doing the best you can and also getting so much time to be with your family - so that is the silver lining in a really tough situation.

It is @Zoe7 even if it’s boring stuff it’s just hanging out with them that when I was working I so badly wanted to be at home doing. Our kid got a voucher for his bday to go swimming with dolphins and a snorkel session so we are doing that soon, it’s for 1 adult 1 kid and he picked me to go with him That will be fun and will cost us nothing cause the voucher Finding ways to make it work, making use of what w’ve got

OMG I am VERY jealous @ArraDreaming I have always wanted to swim with dolphins but I am too scared of sharks lol It is going to be one of those magical days that your boy will never forget - and that will be because he has you by his side as much as the experience ❤️🌞
