    Yipee for School Holidays:j:beer::j

    You can put that year behind you now and return in September with a new start.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Day two of the holidays

    felt rather rough today, very sick and tired. guess I needed a rest, sadly that seems to mean I am not tired now!

    I started my lists and my projects. got the dentists tomorrow and am a bit worrried about that. I paid 200 pounds off my CC and will have to do a bit of moving around tomorrow, plus phone my driving school and that bloke about the snails (yuck)

    I am starting Weight watchers, I was going to do Slimming world but I found the plan a bit complicated ! sad but true so tomorrow I weigh in and start counting!

    And tomorrow I am clearing out my room and organising stuff for charity and stuff that needs posting to my various friends. I should also book my tickets for my holidays.

    feel quite tired now! see you all tomorrow xxxx well later today xx

    Get plenty of rest Buffy, you're probably run down because you've now been able to let your defenses down and the stress is still there a bit. Don't try to do too much and let yourself recover.

    Glad to see you're still making headway in everything.

    Hi Buffy

    Let your body tell you what it needs. I have a few days off and had great intentions - but have spent most of the time sleeping. I think it was just my body telling me what it needs after a hetic few weeks

    Take care

    Shoe Gal x :D

  • I wish some one would tell my mum that. I hate being at home! I wish I lived on my own - first time I have seriously thought this since deciding to stay here. She wants to know what I am doing every minute of the day. At the moment I still rough. achy and headache and sick. she has already done one of the jobs I offered to do, clearly pointing out I haven't done anything. When the !!!! do I get to bloody have a break????????????

    I mean I am selfish cow for complaining she dropped me at the dentist this morning (50 quid lighter now) and waited for me

    I am grateful for her and so lucky but equally I have to justify my every waking action or have her make snide comments to my sisters.

    I am going to have a lie down I just feel like this cos I feel so yuck and did want to get on with things.

    so bloody frustrated.
    Nevertheless she persisted.

    Oh Buffy - it sounds like you are having a hard day - and the dentist too :eek:

    Sometimes I am so glad I live on my own , although loads of people find that odd :rolleyes: However, I am still on the sofa and am starting to have guilt pangs about wasting my day off :o
