@martha79 everything crossed for you getting the flat, it must be horrible feeling insecure in your housing. I know that is a reality for loads of people nowadays. I was incredibly lucky to get a proper council flat when I had 2 little ones, the relief was immense having a secure tenancy. I don't think they exist in the same way nowadays, which is a terrible shame. I loved my little flat, we all started sleeping better once we had our own place and could put down roots.
I've never applied for PIP, I looked at it, and on paper I should get it. But I have heard how hard the assessment process is and decided not to bother. I have a small work pension, and DH has a couple of pensions, so we can manage. I know we are lucky to be able to choose not to have the stress of applying though.
It was a hospital day for DH yesterday, a cardiology review following his latest stents going in. I think he must be more stent than artery by now. They were very pleased with him, which was a relief. There are roadworks between us and the hospital that will go on until next spring, so we decided to go the very long way round rather than sit in traffic in the heat. It was a good decision, and quite an enjoyable trip in all honesty. We said we would count it as a 'date night' as we bought a coffee at the hospital. 😁
