  • You seem chirpier today BB!

    a bit yes. Still very.............dunno........sigh.........but read something funny on MSE just before posting and it made me laugh and think that reflected in my posts. The story of someone who waited hours in a meeting to fart, then went into a darkened empty office, let a huge one rip and then saw the Marketing Director sitting there in the dark recovering from a bad headache..........:rotfl:
    :D"Stay Wonky":D

    :rotfl: Excellent!

    I'll have to be careful because I sometimes go into a dark room at work as I frequently suffer from headaches.

    I'm known for sitting at my desk with sunglasses on!

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.
  • oh.........and..........

    you've got me all day now.............OH thinks I'm going to the family do, but because of his twuntish words and attitude which make it blatantly obvious he doesn't want me to join him (ie - 'why are you bothering?' and 'Oh, you're coming are you? I've told them you aren't' when I've said nothing of the sort), I shall inform him as I leave tomorrow......he will be relieved no doubt he doesn't have to have me there......

  • I am considering that. He says he doesn't know where the meal is yet :rolleyes: so I am going to wait and see if he bothers to even try to let me know where to go as he has already said - twice - 'well don't think I'm driving into the centre of Manchester to pick you up' (I hadn't even asked him to and wouldn't). He really hates the thought of me going, so I'm saying I am ;) It is sad though, I said I wanted to go to get to know his family and the snort of derision was :(

  • very true :) I know his family would make me welcome - they are lovely which is why I feel :( about it, I don't want his dad and sister to think that I'm close by and didn't want to see them.
