    No chance of catching up on the thread properly :o

    BUT I got my "me" time today :D Went for a coffee and ended up having 2 hot chocolates, a half of fosters, and a BIG gab for over 2 hours :D:j:j Would have been out longer but family commitments for my friend meant they had to go. Then by the time I'd done some Christmas shopping, popped to Asda on the way home (which resulted in some DVDs being purchased :o As well as tins of choccie for the classes for Xmas :o:o ) it was more or less time to pick DD up from school :eek: Then we went straight out to mums.

    So todays flying consisted of :
    • Breakfast
    • DD out to school more or less on time (crossed onto the school block as the bell went :o )
    • Xmas prep
    • Dishes washed.
    My plan for tonight is :
    • get bag ready for tomorrow.
    • Get stuff out for the morning.
    • Try to sleep (next door slamming around and he's shouting :mad: )
    Will hopefully manage to do some more proper flying tomorrow and some studying as my tutorial for OU has started and I've not caught up yet! :eek: Laters :wave:

    nope.. for the reasons stated above.. plus I don't have time.. plus they all talk crap plus whatever they gave me that might be slightly different though no doubt do the same thing I wouldn't be able to afford to collect from the chemist anyway... I is poor you know!

    And this is what I have dealt with every year for the last 18 years it isn't a new thing and there isn't anything that can be done.. other than take stronger drugs which I don't want to do.. so.. this is my case get off it! .. :p

    ETA (cos that sounded right stroppy!!.. sorry!!) I know you all mean well and it means a lot and I don't mean to sound like such an ingrate.. Just being able to whinge about it occasionally is a help.. everyone here (my house) ignores me *sob sniff*
