everything is going wrong

[alexsmum]

this week, we have found out that we have to pay £225 to have our bath repaired as it is leaking from every point possible and there is water coming through our kitchen ceiling.( this is the bath that was installed ony 2 years ago to replace the bath that was there...which was leaking)
today my telly has gone kaput completely.i think it will be to far gone to repair.
I had a letter from the tax credits people today saying that my award is being cut by £200 because ds2 is no longer a baby.
We have no money. i am fed up.its raining.of my two local sahm friends, one has started uni and so is busy all the time, the other has moved abroad.
is this karma do you think?
was i an axe murderer in another life?

and when i thought i would have a moan to my mumsnet chums because my others aren't around, nobody replies to my thread!

Never spoken to you before but there are always friends on mumsnet!
Sounds like you are having one of those horrible days that thankfully don't come round very often... Would it be cheaper to buy a new bath? (one of those 99 quid jobs?) or is there any recourse on the people that fitted the last one - is the leak down to bad fitting? Or you could try your house insurance - might be cheaper to just pay the excess and get it all done through them. In fact, was the telly in the kitchen and kaput through leaking?

Don't know if any of this helps but good luck anyway

Cutting you tax credit by £200 a week? month? year?
I sometimes feel like you do now..think we all do!
Everything goes wrong at once. I finally got my finances sorted and my car broke down the telly is kaput and the lawn mower needs new parts!!
Last year our washer, freezer and shower all went in one week!!!
Look at your little bundles of joy and everything will seem so much................................................................better?
