    I think your right to give his some space if thats what he wants. I think it,s Pammy time. Forget time on your own comping, start being open to new and old friendships. Call up some old mates, get them round for a pj party or something. We all need mates. The most important person in your house is you, if your not happy no-one will be. Call up some old mates tonight, I bet you will be surprised at how happy they are to hear from you.

    Hi Pammy

    Hope you feel better soon. You can choose your friends but you cannot choose your family. He will come back when he is ready with his tail between his legs. Have some me time, you deserve it.

    Thank you all, just reading my post I sound so 'woe is me' its awful. I am so sorry. Spoke to son on skype last night, think thats how things will be like for a while but its a start.

    Had a letter today about a PPI claim and they have offered me £5k! I know it sounds a lot of money but I was expecting double that. BUt its money I didnt have before I suppose and I can get a decent car with that. (just looked at a seat ibiza :o) I have just spoken to the lawyer who says we will go back and negotiate and I hope its the right thing and I get a bit more and not lose the whole lot!!

    The important bit is the fact they have made an offer not how much it is. The offer shows fault on their side, now its just a matter of reaching an agreement. Was it a Ferrari you were looking at :T

    I'm so sorry that the holiday wasn't what you hoped for and deserved. We're all here for you whenever you need to share anything. Thinking back to when I was a teenager, we all have our moments and issues, but I'm sure that for most people when they are adults they realise that their parents always tried to do whats best for them, and just how lucky they are. Getting to that point is a journey though. At least you are still speaking, and that is the point to work from.

    I know nothing about PPI claims but fingers crossed they'll increase their offer, and you can get a comfy car to drive.

    I agree with what everyone else has said. You need to make time for you, and your friends. If you do feel low, don't push yourself with surveys or comps etc. Spend some quality time - either with friends or alone, but just focus on enjoying yourself.

    Have you got anything planned for this weekend?
    June wins: 2 x Robbie Williams tickets, iPad mini, £200 skatehut voucher :)

    A huge thank you to all posters xx

    Am kid free now as kids gone to the dads for the night, am going out to bingo tonight with a friend. I was planning on moping at home but thought I am going to push myself out. I am suffereing though with the womanly monthlies big style!!

    I need to do a tornado around my house as since we have been back it has all gone back to chaos. It was so nice to come into a really clean and tidy house but within hours it was back to normal!! :mad:
    after that I am going to have a soak in the bath!

    No money makeing again today and funny enough I have had quite a few surveys sent but I am just not in the mood to do them lately.
