    Phew - I'm all caught up now!

    Liberty and 'baby' mudbath - Happy Birthday

    gnb - hope you get it sorted with the bank - am pretty sure you shouldn't have to pay

    valli - keeping your CDs (and DVDs :rolleyes: ) in alphabetical order simply means you can easily find the one you want :D Oh, and my 'various' are in alphabetical order of title :o

    toochoosey - your lounge if lovely

    ZLS - don't break your arm - I can guarantee it's not a good idea!

    mof77 - hugs - please take it easy

    rosepink - hugs - know how you feel and it does get better but it takes time. Just aim to do one tiny thing and you'll feel good when you achieve it. Maybe just one little thing from the list each day. And please feel free to post on here as we are all happy to listen.

    You guys must all have huge desks! I couldn't fit half that stuff on mine unless I just made one very tall pile!!!

    I guess I need to find my long list and update it ready for several [STRIKE]hundred [/STRIKE]HHCs tomorrow .............

    yeah that's my excuse too - I CANNOT stand messed up CDs/DVDs and not putting them away - they aren't cheap! I have LOTS and some of them are irreplaceable. MP3 files just do not do it for me! Mind you I don't keep DVDs in any order! The really sad thing is I am now beginning to forget what I've got - thought a Prince Greatest Hits was needed. Remembered in time that I already have one (I like KISS!) I'll have to get one of those TOGS t-shirts 'Do I come here often?' :rotfl:
    I got Boz Scaggs Silk Degrees for xmas - to replace the LP which is in a box in the loft...bliss
    but I don't have my various sorted....

    I have just watched Murder at Harvey Nicks... my sympathies go out to the families of those murdered by people 'for love' - having 'been there' to a lesser extent being 'controlled' - well whatever it is it's not love...
    Love is unconditional...whether it's a partner, a child, a parent..you cannot impose your will upon another person.
    AnW's Mum You're welcome honey - put your feet up and chill!!!

    I knew WHAT you were up to - now I know who.
    Me an angel? - well I am NOT the only one...
    Mo477 pleased you have a fantastic back-up system (if I were closer hun I'd be there too) take care and don't stress..
    Zoey - been supping have we? :rotfl:

    Flower did warn you about Stormy's thread, it is very moving but for someone like me also comforting to know that there are others who are in similar situations to us. I hate the fact that it happens to anyone and feel saddened when newbies post on there as it means something horrible has happened in their lives. But thanks for reading :)


    AnW'sMum I read Stormy's thread last night after seeing the link on here. I have been thinking about it all day.
    Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times and I'll smash your face in. :D

    CS there are some very brave people on there, it is very like this thread in that it is entirely supportive no matter what.
