    bad day
    thought i would get more satisfaction when i threw the cup against the wall... strangely didnt. first and last time i will be doing that - looks more fun in films than in real life - did not get any satisfaction.

    oh - we were arguing about money surprisingly... or not. suggesting that OH should not go out with his mates for the 2nd time today as we had no money but he didnt listen so he is out and also going out tomorrow too. duh duh duh

    Thats a shame - you're left with everything at home, and no support either. Hope you can talk things through so that they can improve ..........

    think next time throw something heavier to get more satisfaction - [only joking!] felt stupid actually.

    Hi Mrs CMR - life is good here - a friend is taking some stuff to the council tip for me, I decluttered and swept the easy bits of the garage, and I'm playing stuff online - starving hungry, mind you, I'll have to stop soon to eat.
