  • I think 30 posts = one star

    200 = two stars

    The time to be ashamed is when you are boasting about your lovely lever arch file like I was Toffepenny! lol

    Not as sad as me I told OH when I noticed I'd got my second star, who of course hadn't got a clue what I was going on about and looked at me as if i'd gone mad:rotfl:

    Hope,I know how you feel,just keep posting and however bad you feel don't be afraid to say so,we are all here for one another. I unplugged my landline a while ago and now just plug it in when I want to call someone but you know what? I then go into worry mode thinking"oh God,what if I fall down the stairs or something and my little girl can't use the phone to do the 999 thingy we've practised"! Am I completely crazy??! Hate the post too...But had an awful week last week,my mum not well and taking care of my gran as she is very ill too plus whole single parent blah blah etc and it really made me think"blow this!". I refuse to let it get me down,life is so precious-I have a beautiful daughter and great family,sooo much to be thankful for-why should I allow it to make me unhappy? I was also talking to someone at school who has just packed in her job working for a dca-thank God ,she may have had me as a customer,eek!-as she hated it. Made me see that very often the people on the other end of the phone are just trying to earn their crust too.

    So I am sending lots of hugs and positive vibes-you will be ok. Sadly,having a child of a certain age I now have"we're all in this together" whizzing round my head-help!HSM overload...!Anyone for the DMP cheerleading squad?!:j

    Thanks for your note.:A
    You have got a lot to juggle with Penny, well done for coping so well.
    Hope your mum and gran make a speedy recovery soon!!

    I received your HSM vibes..my son is also wildcat mad!! :cool:


    My friend and hubby have invited me and my son to stay with them for the
    weekend cos they said I need to have a change of scene, take timeout and
    they miss the old bubbly me (yes, you may seem shocked at that world
    bubbly after my recent posts:p ).
    But I am am known for positivity, support and advice to my friends and
    family, even when my own world is secretly falling apart.... opening up
    about my own various problems is another thing all together....

    I am an ok person ...I'm just skint!!!!!!!
    Taking each day at a time I will lighten my load. I will beat this.

    And all my fellow dmpers ......... there is alot to be grateful for, every single
    day!!! :j :j
  • Anyone else swapped to Tesco mobile too?

    I saw their adverts for the free credit and changed from T-Mobile. I only use my mobile as and when and prefer pay as you go plus you get clubcard points too! :beer:

    Every little helps as they say. I never ever got any offers from T-mobile so had nothing to lose really by changing.

Think may take me a while to adjust to the whole DMP thing,am almost scared of having money in my bank account,does that make sense? was just mulling over thought of buying a new lever arch file(!) and felt guilty,will I ever go and buy something non-essential again and feel ok about it???:o
