Oh. My. Goddess.

The post has just come through the door and there were 2 letters - the first one is fine but I'll ask my SIL if she can have a read through just to be 100% sure on Sunday.


The other one was from the DWP and I always hate their letters 'cos it's usually bad news.


I was wrong this time though.


I've been awarded a benefit at the highest rate on an "ongoing basis" which won't need to be looked at again (unless anything changes) until 2033.  That's never happened before in my life and it's a huuuge weight off my mind because it means I can still have my carers coming in twice a day and I can actually function and not be smelly or hungry again until then.


I'll be 55 before I have to claim again and I can't believe that they've actually done something right and very quickly this time.  There won't be a 2 year battle and two crown court appearances this time and there won't be any more court letters declaring that it's me versus the DWP.


I can breathe a huuuge sigh of relief now.  I think it calls for a celebratory bar of me-friendly chocolate as opposed to my writing rewards which aren't me-friendly but so much cheaper.


Thank you Gaia!
