Since I had to stop working back in June 2009, I have been claiming benefits due to my ill health. I was on benefits due to my ill health before starting working for Jelsoft so going back on to them should have been a straightforward process. However, the benefits system had changed and the benefits I was previously on, Incapacity Benefit and Income Support, stopped being available for new claims or returning claims in October 2008 and have been replaced by a new benefit called Employment and Support Allowance (ESA).
When I initially spoke to them on the phone in June 2009 to start the claim process, I was told that although it is a new benefit, it would be a straightforward process to claim and that as I had previously been on benefits for the same reason that there would be no problems with claiming. This turned out to be completely untrue. Read more…

My postman is stupid! How difficult is it to put the mail in the right door? I’m fed up with regularly getting my neighbours post. It’s not rocket science! My flat is just a number and the flat above me is a number and a letter. It is so extemely annoying!

I’ve given in and had a smoke. I was doing well, but the stress of some things that are going on have got to me and out came the emergency baccy supply. I feel bad about it as I feel like I’ve let people down that believed in me and believed that I can kick the habit. I was doing so well, and now I’m just a failure. I’m back to square one again now, which sucks, but I don’t know whether or not I should keep trying and get back on the wagon again, or whether I should just say ‘Oh Stuff It!’ and keep smoking.

I’ve decided that my cat is completely stupid. There is a huge storm going on outside, and and I can hear my cat crying because she doesn’t like the rain, but despite the fact that I have been calling her, she won’t get out from where ever she is to come into the house where it is dry and warm. Ok, so she would get wet for a few seconds while she runs to the house, but it would be worth it to get dry, warm and fed. I mean really, who wouldn’t brave a few seconds in torrential rain for the promise of a nice warm place to sleep after a good meal?
