    I've been about the place, Sammy, mostly killing time, applying for jobs, suffering with my leg and my head.

    But yeah, really want to know what the hell has gone on with my parents but figuring that interrogating them both would be a bit selfish and cruel.

    One of my yoga friends swears by cosmic ordering~ she even got a new man:eek:
    Why dont you try the library first?

    Crikey, this cosmic ordering sounds much better than mail ordering :D

    Bookie, so pleased you have returned :kisses:
    I like doing lists, but the trick is to make the targets attainable, I full agree with Toto, split the jobs into smaller ones.

    Rather than clean the lounge....it could be split into 5 or 6 tasks and when one is crossed off, there is a sense of achievement, rather than failure when you can't cross off one big job.

    Hello Bookaddict :hello:

    Ruby, I bet you are in shock over your parents :eek:

    That must be tough ruby~but IMHO you do have a wee bit of a right to know the bigger picture at least?

    I will let mum get down to my older sister's and settle in, then give her a call tomorrow and ask her if she is willing to tell me about it. Probably wont get much more than what I got yesterday, which was that they haven't been getting along for a while.
