It's a shame I dislike hot spicy food.
I can drink lots of tea though0 -
miro, the best thing for a cold, is drink plenty fluids, wrap up warm, and laze around all day on sofa
having a mixed day today, some good some not so good. firstly josh's school rings me and upsets me by saying they not having josh in school on a monday morn any moreapparently no staff free
anyway calmed down, and went for an aromatherapy massage, which was already booked, and was very relaxing, then i went to a pub for lunch with a friend/date, which was lovely too.
then i ring the education dept about son, and also over lack of transport, they say they will ring school, basically they will end up agreeing with school, so again bit low after that phone call.
then the friend, who i had lunch with, texts, and asks me out on another date. am happy but nervous, every relationship in past has turned bad, and i dont want no more upsets.
AB thanks for the tips, your right about my ex, he is a bully, and i am not going to let myself be bullied by him any more
hugs all

Sounds like a normal day for me then :rotfl:No, i'm not that bad. I probably try to do too much when I am ill.
Sorry to hear about the low staff at your sons school. If more money was put into these things, rather than many of the pointless things that Councils do put money into, maybe they could afford to help people like your son.
My local council have funded speakers in my town centre that play music to the shoppers....great! Very much needed that :rolleyes:0 -
My jokes seem to be going nearly as fast as I can find them. Is someone reporting them? I note yesterdays has gone and the one before that didnt last 10 mins. I wish if someone even if its a moderator would pm me as many of you seem to like themWho I am is not important. What I do is.0

Hello Dear Everyone,:wave:
Here's a reference source for you all....the complete Samaritans Directory of individual branch addresses (202 UK and Eire!) and phone numbers....
http://www.samaritansnet.org/web/FILES/BranchDirectory/BranchesEmergencyTel0808.pdf
Although not confidential, this list is not published/available to the general public. It allows you to get:-
1. Free phone calls to Samaritans from home landlines
The 0845 909090 nationally advertised number isn't free. However,
generally home landline providers eg BT, TalkTalk etc. offer free calls
to geographic landlines evenings and weekends, up to 60-70 minutes at
a time (check with your provider).
So you can now call Sams completely free of charge from a landline
by calling a specific branch rather than the 0845 number.
Or, if you are in Scotland, www.breathingspacescotland.co.uk
offers a similar service 6pm-2am weekdays, 24hrs at weekends;
call 0800-838587.
Or, if you can call Samaritans briefly, and ask them to call you back
eg on your PAYG "anonymous" mobile.
2. Free face-to-face counselling.
Did you know you can get free in person one-to-one confidential
counselling at almost any Samaritan branch? No appointment needed
just walk in whenever your chosen branch is open to receive personal
callers (suggest you ring up and check opening times first), and you
will be seen there and then. You don't have to give your name or any
contact details.
This service is not advertised or publicised.....
Free Texts.
Also, here's the number to text Samaritans: 07725909090 for those of you
who have free texts or just prefer it. Sams aim to text back witin 1 hour.
Hope this information helps you to save money when you need emotional support.
Take care everyone

Special thanks to my "technical assistant" here for doing the linky thing.
Have just noticed this is my 150th post. Can I have an award please0 -
Heya lovelies.
*hugs* to everyone that needs them.
I am in the mood to clean...gosh, you know my head is bad when I say that. :rotfl:
Also sorting out Halloween plans. Halloween is the only holiday I celebrate. I love Halloween so much. Every year I always look forward to it and get so excited planning it. =D Gemma is going to be here from 23rd-28th October so we're going to do Halloween a little bit earlier so we can celebrate it together.
Ever been in a cemetery on Halloween night? Oh, so much fun! =D Won't do that this year though.lol. Gemma gets scared easily. Bless her. Although, I'm still at a loss as to how I'm not scared of cemeteries on Ole Hallows Eve but I jump out of my skin if someone touches me or if I see something scary in a film.lol.
Can't wait for Gemma to come down. I'm making a list of things that we can do and there will be loads of photos.
At the moment seeing her is the one main thing keeping me going. I haven't spent any time with friends in well over a year.
In other news, ex made a new email address and has been calling me all sorts of names. I really wish that if people were going to insult me, they had some evidence to back these insults up. Otherwise they're just empty. Can't believe he thinks he's getting to me. He thinks that he's going to make me break down in tears, when in actual fact, I just laughed. I will not give him the satisfaction of me replying. I am bigger than that and actually have a life to lead.
Anyway, this post has turned rather long. Sorry. I ramble a lot.

I could have sworn I just posted a joke and it vanished So heres another one
Three men were standing in line to get into heaven one day. Apparently it had been a pretty busy day, though, so St. Peter had to tell the first one, "Heaven's getting pretty close to full today, and I've been asked to admit only people who have had particularly horrible deaths. So what's your story?"
The first man replies: "Well, for a while I've suspected my wife has been cheating on me, so today I came home early to try to catch her red-handed. As I came into my 25th floor apartment, I could tell something was wrong, but all my searching around didn't reveal where this other guy could have been hiding. Finally, I went out to the balcony, and sure enough, there was this man hanging off the railing, 25 floors above ground! By now I was really mad, so I started beating on him and kicking him, but wouldn't you know it, he wouldn't fall off. So finally I went back into my apartment and got a hammer and starting hammering on his fingers. Of course, he couldn't stand that for long, so he let go and fell-but even after 25 stories, he fell into the bushes, stunned but okay. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I ran into the kitchen, grabbed the fridge, and threw it over the edge where it landed on him, killing him instantly. But all the stress and anger got to me, and I had a heart attack and died there on the balchoy."
"That sounds like a pretty bad day to me," said Peter, and let the man in.
The second man comes up and Peter explains to him about heaven being full, and again asks for his story.
"It's been a very strange day. You see, I live on the 26th floor of my apartment building, and every morning I do my exercises out on my balcony. Well, this morning I must have slipped or something, because I fell over the edge. But I got lucky, and caught the railing of the balcony on the floor below me. I knew I couldn't hang on for very long, when suddenly this man burst out onto the balcony. I thought for sure I was saved, when he started beating on me and kicking me. I held on the best I could until he ran into the apartment and grabbed a hammer and started pounding on my hands. Finally I just let go, but again I got lucky and fell into the bushes below, stunned but all right. Just when I was thinking I was going to be okay, this refrigerator comes falling out of the sky and crushes me instantly, and now I'm here."
Once again, Peter had to concede that that sounded like a pretty horrible death.
The third man came to the front of the line, and St. Peter asked for his story.
"Picture this," says the third man, "I'm hiding naked inside a refrigerator..."Who I am is not important. What I do is.0
