    You reckon I can claim them and then get me some more gifts to me :confused:

    I think ill be shoed up tomorrow :D and one of them bracelets :)

    Thank you everyone - it really does mean a lot :)
    Wont forget you all :)
    Love is the answer. At least for most of the questions in my heart,
    Like why are we here? And where do we go?And how come it's so hard?
    It's not always easy,And sometimes life can be deceiving,
    I'll tell you one thing, its always better when we're together

    Phunkles there was a glitch where all the points from a certain period have gone back onto peoples card, it was about october actually. Go stick it in a machine and get your points :)

    I did my pledge. My pledge for tomorrow is to finish the teachers gifts.

  • Morning

    Well I had a bad and good day yesterday if that makes sense:confused:

    Strarted off pretty well getting my jobs done then sat down with my OC planner and went into MELTDOWN Felt so depressed looking at it :o I really wanted to throw it away. But after OH made me a Cuppa I started to have a reality check and kick myself up the BUM!!!

    So I Crossed out all the HM stuff that I know I have no chance of making in the time we have left and re-wrote a list of what I can achive. I re-did my to-do List so it looked nice and neat, updated everything and had another COFFEE then I felt a bit better;) (The Coffee Helped)

    So now I feel less panic striken I can concentrate on what I need to do.


    MY PLEDGE for today....is to keep up with you lot on here!!! I seem to forget in the afternoons, then remember I've not been on and posted until I get in bed!!!!:eek:

    Today's jobs

    1. Paint Pinata
    2. Put Clean Washing Away that I did yesterday
    3. Shopping for Party
    4. Prep for Party

    RE Pinata - ASC yes the one I made last year took the kids half an hour to get into :rotfl: but kept them entertained very MSE I think LOL and the Fillers cost me £1.49 for a big PINATA bag in Home Bargins and everything else I had in the house already so BARGIN!!! (me thinks)

    So I'm in Party mode today, but if I have time just need to finish rolling up the story scrolls for the kids to take to school, if not will have to have that as my Pledge on Sunday!!

    ((((((((((((((((Big Hugs to PHUNKLES & SHEVS ))))))))))))))))))))))))

    and loads of Christmas Cheer to everyone :beer: :beer: :beer: !!
    :D:D:D:D:D
    Where's the Coffee?? Show me the Coffee NOW!!

    morning all

    Yes I was on the naughty list yesterday:eek: but i did go out and buy the chocs for a family friend who also cuts DD1 hair for free so she deserved a big box!

    Not sure what I'll get done today as I'm going to get my hair cut at 1pm and my sis is looking after the 2 youngest and possibly picking DD1 up from school if it takes ages to hack through my hair (still ultra thick after having DD2 lol bout time I started loosing it!) so I might have a day off pledging as I am treating myself for the 1st time this year:eek: Oooooo i just remembered I need to buy a Granny card for my OH's great granny who is 101 as we're going to c her tomorrow with our new addition;)

    Phunkles - sorry to hear about the OH, I agree def get the shoes ;)
    Shev - Sorry to hear about ur job ((hugs))

    hmmm I cant remember anythign else but i must get up and get sorted as DD2 has finally stopped feeding and I need to get DD1 to school!!

    Sorry to hear your news Phunkles and Shevs - hope things improve soon! (And make sure they're wicked f**k me shoes, that'll show him!)

    After yesterdays delirium, with driving tests (followed by Parents evening, in which I was told DS is 'focused, determined, self motivated, mature beyond his years, couldn't ask him for any more yada yada - did ask how much he'd paid them!) - treated myself to a very early night - lovely!

    Which means, of course, I was up bright and early this morning (05:00), so have managed to get loads and loads done... well on the way to being a nice girl again!

    Well, off to conquer the world (well, OK, maybe the housework)
    Have a good day one and all - will catch up later xxxxxx
    Poor and content is rich enough!
  • Big hugs to phunkles and jordanshannon.

    I can sympathise with both of you and can honestly say that things do get better it will take time and remember that none of it is your fault (has taken me 5 years but I'm sorted now).

    phunkles - claim the points return the gifts and treat yourself - I bought myself a gorgeous amber bracelet when my ex did it to me :rotfl:
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p
