@GezzaP it's such a horrible feeling really. Hoping once you've done the cooking and cleaning that you can get a bit more sleep. Take care of yourself ❤️.

I put oin wooden floors in my place exceptw hours in the bedrooms. Need new carpets in bedrooms. Thinking purple or red to replace ugly cream I have now. Slept much better after getting up for a few hours. Finished cooking up thawed out meat. Did dishes then went back to bed. Finally a decent night’s sleep 6 hours!

My f… helper has cancelled at short notice once again. @SmilingGecko I’m so annoyed. Will call tradies I can rely on to actually show up. I have threatened to sack him. P… off. Can’t drive as I have two flat tyres. Really annoyed sent him an email saying i’m going to sack him. Called plumber for leaking tap. Should get three taps checked but can’t afford it. Especially as have to hire cleaner and gardener as well. Since helper not coming. Hope your day is better than mine.

So sorry @GezzaP I think its a good idea to get rid of him. He was taking liberties with you and has caused you immense suffering. I'm looking into the LETS scheme again which is a bartering system that has groups across the country. It would help us cut costs. You could offer say babysitting in exchange for gardening and handyman stuff at no cost. It seems to work nicely for a lot of people in a facebook budgeting group I was a member of.
