cancel Xmas? Im dreading it. i hve no money, am being threatened with Prison if I dont pay my council tax ( I cant...i dont have the money ) and have been told but the CAB that the council will have no problem in putting me in prison and my child into care if need be which means I lose my home and my son, both things i have fought so hard to keep. What should be a happy time of year is for so many people the startings of a downward spiral. Although I am trying to sort out my financial situation, ecah letter that drops through the door demanding money I dont have sets me off again and I feel like im not getting anywhere. I have a choice to go the bankrupt route...but I need 500 to do that... how mad is that!!!! So...unless i can get together that amount of money...people will continue to harass me for money that i dont have and keep eating at me until i finally crack which if it continues like this... wont be long.
I hate this country and the lenghts that people will go to to recover money. How many people commit suicide every years because their life has become nothing but a debt to certain authorities, banks etc. A lot. And I can understand why... the pressure is unreal.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
And do they still have debtor's prison? Thought that went out with Dickens. :( (((HUG)))

I am sorry you are having such a difficult time. While solutions may be what you seek, the only advice I can offer is this:
They can take away our money..
They can lock us up.
They can take our houses...they can take our posessions...but these things do not make us who we are...they do not make us happy..they only make us comfortable.
I have discovered that love is not comfortable, and our kids are the only ones who can see through our tears. They will love regardless. Hold your kids close, show them what really matters...show them what they will be able to take with them when they, you, are gone.
I think if you, I , can do this...we will prove them the loosers. I know it is hard,but hold your head up high and remember that these possions do not make us who we are....they make others beleive we are someone else.
I am sending love and hugs your way. Your value and your kids value are much more than the pricetag they have put over your head.
