    I was just wondering the very same thing? This thread seems to be going in a whole new direction at the moment, I am sure Miss P will have us all tucked up in bed by 9pm in August :eek: and with no bedtime story if we have been on the naughty step :D I have a cunning plan ;) if I do an Mp and go for 1, then as I will reach my target first, I shall have all the praise and of course be awarded a later bedtime. :cool: Impressive or what? :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    But lovely Fay I am so glad that you have returned to Miss Sensible, remember: Crime does not pay. Very well done on resisting the supermarket last night :T Hope you are ok and that you are not feeling too lonely? Big hugs and take care, you are fab :A xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Winebox hunny it really just hasn't been the same without you, I am so glad you have returned :D though I think you need to be a bit more modest when offering your cherries about, if you don't mind me saying :rotfl:JO is right though we have missed your witty comments. Happy birthday to your DD tomorrow and remember what you have promised, that you will stop all this for the sake of your DD. So we are all with you and we are all willing you to succeed, so whether the days from now are good or bad you must stay and together we will see it through. Big hugs and lots a Budgie love :A
    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx


    Darling Jo I have read your post with worry, I hate to think that you are feeling at: rock bottom. But as GC says if you are truly at your rock bottom then the only way from here will be forward. Have you had any success in getting to to the counsellors at all? You speak of a renewed determination and of feeling more positive, I hope you can now build on these feelings and get to where you need to be. (((()))) big hugs and I am thinking of you :A (((())))) hugs again and take care. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    P.s forgot to say 15af for me please. xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Ttgu :bdaycake: HAPPY BIRTHDAY AND I HOPE YOU ARE HAVING A LOVELY DAY? Big hugs and lots of love xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    GC I have read your post and I as you know do so admire how you have changed your life around. You are always so honest and truthful, the story you tell makes me feel humble and always brings tears to my eyes. You try so hard to help others, you are genuine and caring. I am so glad that your wife and children believed in you, even after so many broken promises. Even when you must have been at your very worse your Darling Wife saw through the illness and she saw just what a lovely guy you are. Sometimes we all forget to look past the surface, when we do we miss what is really there? Sorry to go on but you are a diamond and I just wanted to give you a big hug and say: THANKYOU :A xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Pricey hope your day in London Town is good one? Let us know how it has been? I am sure you have had a wonderful time. Big hugs xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Glasgow Girl lovely to hear from you, and hoovering when sober. I actually thought I had a hoover fixation at one point, it was a blue carpet it showed every bit. My Ds used to argue that the high electricity bill was not down to his five computers, plus game stations but it was actually my killer hoover fixation that was to blame :rotfl:But I am so glad you are sounding brighter, big hugs xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Dear Lurky was that you who popped in briefly earlier :confused: as Jo says you treat this place like an hotel :rotfl:Bet you can do a good: Hokey Cokey too, ;) Hope you are ok mate and as promised I am af :p Big hugs xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    40sm hugs hunny and I am so sorry to hear that you are unwell, you are certainly having such a trying time at the moment. Big hugs to you and your darling Mum. I hope you start to feel better soon? Lots of love :A xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Eselt hugs hun and what about the news, Schuie is making a comeback, wow can't wait for the next race now :j We have never been Ferrari fans but he is coming back for the team and I hope he does well, (never thought I'd say that ;)) It all stems back to when he ran Daimon Hill off the track, way back when. Hope you are ok you are a little quiet, hope all is well? Big hugs xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

  • Evening All,

    40sm~meant to say earlier, glad you are feeling better (((hugs))) Hope you had all the help you needed with the kids. Last time I was ill, it was the Wimbledon fortnight last year, I spent the day in bed feeling very sorry for myself. Mr FH lost the plot with me for being so lazy!!!! :mad: Men! :rotfl:Apparently I had been allowed the morning to wallow in self pity but not all day :rolleyes:

    Thank goodness I'm rarely ill.......touches wood!

    I've made a new friend. A Geordie lass. My she's canny :rotfl:Really lovely lady actually and I think I've made a firm friend. We originally met online with another girl from my area. However she turned out to be a total freak. Well, probably not to other people, but I had absolutely nothing in common with her and neither did the Geordie lass. So met up just the two of us today and it's like we've known one another forever. All the kids got on great too :D Infact one of them wanted to stay for tea :D

    I had to have a half day from work today, childcare problems. But as annoyed as I was to have to waste a holiday day, it actually turned out great. A little bit of work and a little bit of fun.

    I'm terribly tempted by the bottle of cider in the fridge. It's actually for a pork & cider recipe I have, but mmmmmmm. I should definitely resist, then I will reach my target.

    No plans for tonight. Eldest son is watching the end of his Ben10 DVD and promises no nonsense at bedtime. Thought I might settle down to a couple of episodes of Private Practice I have on Sky+

    Much love X
    Need to start again :o
