sit on your bum with a book and enjoy relaxing.

Both.
Find a timer and set it for 1 hour, then take your book and sit in the sun. Then do an hour indoors and so on until it is dark. You can always work indoors once it's darker.

Last night I started putting some stuff on Amazon Marketplace in a bid to up my income. It was only some really dodgy CDs from my younger days and I doubt they'll sell but it's worth a try. I've also got some books to put on and a few things to advertise in the paper. After that it'll be ebay and a boot sale.
Tonight I'll phone a plasterer to get a quote for my kitchen. And I've just realised that I can use my Consumer Pulse points to get Homebase vouchers. I've got just under £30 worth of points at the moment so that can all go towards tiles. I'm using the same ones my sister has in her kitchen and she's got quite a few left over so I'm getting them.
I'm feeling pretty pleased with myself for just getting on with stuff.

Argh! I get so mad at myself sometimes. If you've been reading my thread over the last few days you'll know that I have improved greatly since my split with my ex. Now all that has stalled and I want to cry.
I've collected together all of the things he had left and am getting my BIL to deliver them to his work. I reckon he has something of mione too so I just emailed him to ask and say that he should give it to my BIL if he does have it. When he replied (a very basic but pleasant reply) I found myself getting a bit emotional. Now I have this huge knot of ... something... sitting in my ribs and it's horrible. The sooner all his stuff is gone and I have no need to have any contact the better. Only my resolve has now gone and it doesn't feel like that.:mad: :mad: :mad:Reality check - hit rock bottom on 15 Dec 2008 with unsecured debts of £29,136 and not enough money to live on

Afternoon. Don't get mad at yourself you will have your off days but you will have good ones too. You'll probable be finding his bits and bobs around the house for a while too.
I think one of my favourites was when I found a pot of pleasure/stamina gel under his side of the bed a few months sfter he'd gone.
That just shows how much housework i do doesn't it! and you do sound alot better than a few days ago you're right! See, it does get a little bit easier.Sadly, you don't have any badges yet but keep trying! See what you could get........... oh boo hoo I am crying into my wine.0 -

Friends - or something like them!
REally hacked off. It was my birthday a couple of weeks ago and I was supposed to be going out with my friends to celebrate. They cancelled as they had made other plans. I was ok with that as we re-arranged to go out this weekend. I've just had a text from one saying "can't make it this weekend, going away for a few days." :mad: :mad: :mad:
Probably wont be going out at all now as she is the one who sort of holds the group together. The rest of us are more aquaintances than friends. I was really looking forward to getting out and I really think I need it.

Can't you make contact with these "aquaintances" and go anyway ?? They too may be fed up that she has cancelled and may still want to go out anyway ?0
