@primek sadly for me I have been employed as a casual since 1999. No work no pay. No holidays etc etc. When hubby was alive I received a wife's pension reduced by the hours I worked. He was on disability pension. Casual work suited our situation at the time as I never new when he was going to be well enough to care for the kids or in hospital. That's a whole other story. When he passed. Little did I know the rules had been changed re Centrelink instead of going onto the widows allowance went onto Newstart what a shock. Lost the family home etc etc. I was lucky a broker got me into a small house with a mortgage still but not the same. I think I'm just on a downer right now. Besides all the health rubbish and side effects not resolved yet. And a 12 year old that thinks he can do whatever he likes (got news for him).
what I am going to try focus on is January 2018. I am having a holiday away from it all even if I don't have any spending money. I'm not going to cancel another trip. ONE DAY AT A TIME. for the moment. Just riding the waves.
