Good morning from a bright and sunny New Year’s Eve here in Hastings,
Yesterday was a weird day. I have found a place to live which is the right price in rent that I could afford. It is nothing flash but there will only be my son and I, it is a sunny house but no garden. That was okay. But then in the evening I found out that the rent is likely to go up as the landlord only dropped the rent for Christmas. So it is at the lower rent for 3 months and then it will go up.
Just before I left to go and look at this house ex-hubby turned up in violation of his trespass notice. I didn’t see him but my son did and told him to leave as he was violating the trespass order. All he wanted was to go out for a cup of coffee and catch up with our news. As if that was going to happen. Then later in the day he drops of a letter for me with a small handwritten note on it basically giving the police evidence that he has been to visit. So I am in two minds – should I go to the police and he is in deep trouble and really ruin any chance of our divorce ending amicably or just let it slide and move without giving him our address and get on with the divorce negotiations.
The last straw was finding out that my disability support will drop drastically now that my son turns 18. He now has to apply for a student allowance in order for us to even be able to eat.
So all in all a great way to end this year. So my motto is onwards and upwards for next year.
Anyway onto this challenge by Michelle. We have a lot of bird life around this house and this blackbird is always in the front lawn so I grabbed a few photos.
Then one day I was walking past the back door and looked over to find this fantail flitting around the car and just managed to grab the camera and catch a few rather grainy photos of it.
Thanks for visiting.
