    Gigi I want to say Lu would kick your butt for speaking of yourself in such a bad light and considering going back to X just to get out

    You CAN do it, you've already done the hardest part, leaving.

    PLenty of single mums pay rent (private) and manage, I have a friend who does so and she does fine.

    You are clever and smart, if you weren't hun you'd be happy to live there like all the lovely neighbours you have now

    Be sure you are getting all you are entitled to and yes you will be eligable for Rent Assistance too. Have you done an estimate on the centrelink website?? that will let you know how much you will get if you are paying $250pw rent.

    you are doing brilliantly, I wish I had half your guts.
