Still Here

Ive survived my latest brush with the NHS , first day back at work yesterday , ive been working from home all week , code for making a token effort online while feeling like death, got to see the Dr next week just to keep him happy , so we will see .
Poor old Mr BH is baffled as he says . Im the one whos always ill !!!! .  Just to make matters better I had to do an urgent Tesco Online shop with what wages i had , I quickly realised this lot arent capable of any kind of budget shopping or cooking , so the freezer is full of everyday sausages , nasty pies , crap burgers etc etc , but the simple fact is that if im not here they will order takeway which at its cheapest is what i would feed the family for a week on  , then be whining at the doors of the foodbank for the next month.
The Tesco online shop went well , try putting tesco cat food into the search bar if you want a laugh , among the cat food you get Regal cigarettes and a glorious pink Barbie car?? So our cat has some strange wish list on there?
The poor old cat isnt happy with us , she was neutered courtesy of Cats Protection this week , she finally found her howl when i dropped her off then started her howl again when i took her for her check up ..lol  ..so much for the she will be sleepy for a couple of days mantra , she came home leapt out of her cat basket shot up the curtains and proceeded to hiss and spit at us all evening from on high . now she hates us all..lol
Caseworker came back from her holidays to find theres been no progress at all with anything , it would seem Mr BH has another different medical for ESA next week that we had heard nothing about , what a surprise , so she is taking him for it . I wish her luck as his walking is once again dire , his nose is bleedin constantly and they think hes popped his ribs again . This is his Fit For Work Medical...lol  He just wants to go back on his flexible learning programme at the college a couple of hours a week when hes up to it , but they wont fund it unless hes in certain criteria . Im just worried that once again they will find him fit for work , then we have the whole rigmarole of the Job Center again with its 2 disabled parking spots and nowhere else you can park for miles .  Hes unable to attend unless i go with him , if the lift isnt working he cant manage the stairs and it just turns into a whole demeaning circus for him . complete with security escorting him 12ft from the front door where they are no longer liable if he tumbles , they cant help him in any way just ring for an ambulance . 
We shall see ...............

  3. How much longer can this farce go on. Have you approached your local MP? Can't the Job Centre people make an excecutive decision themselves and say your husband is obviously not fit for work. I too wish I lived nearer to help.

    1. The Job Centre staff except for a couple are wonderful with Mr Bah Humbug , but there is nothing they can do to improve the situation , they do there best with him and in the past have sent him to try various schemes and courses for the disabled because he will give them an honest report back , because he knows they cant take anything off you if you get nothing anyway . They were more than happy for him to potter off to do his flexible learning courses at his own speed , they even suggested he stay in full time education to avoid the daft scheme the DWP come up with .
