    well done all the DFW kids! i am well impressed!

    I went out at lunchtime to try and destress a bit....
    didn't really work....

    bought hairdye, batteries, plug in refills and tried on a pair of size 12 jeans in charity shop... they fastened but there was more muffin than a egg mcmuffin in muffin town, U S of muffin A........

    needless to say i did not buy the jeans....

    also went to leisure centre scales to get weighed... 11st 8... woop woop!

    Then i had a mahoosive jacket potato and tuna n onion to celebrate....

    oh and i had a wee chat with golfer and a wee chat with my mother.......


    Rock n roll eh!!!


    (edit - why am i posting this garbage on here... will copy to my diary....)

    Why are you stressed.....

    I got my DLA renewed for two more years so that's a huge relief.

    I got an interview for my dream job :j:j

    Excellent news Gemmzie! :beer:

    Happy birthday Beanie, very sad about the dog. Once you've got over the initial shock you should buy a lovely plant for the garden like a yellow rose bush (yellow roses mean everlasting love) and plant it in memory of a wonderful companion.

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    A huge well done to all those who've passed their exams - what a talented bunch!

    I'm £20 lighter after taking all 4 kids out to swim/laser tag. Last treat of the holidays although one of the kids has never been here before as I don't really gel with her, she's not uttered a word all day. Kids are strange.

    Why so stressed Maz?

  • I've collected DD2, SIL to be, SIL to be's sister and nephew from the airport. All a bit grumpy as been burning candle at both ends - esp the sister! Nephew is apparentlt a spoiled **** - I'd worked that out before they went! :D

    All alone now and a bit blue. May go and help a friend with her weeding.

    Lovely weather though.

    Can't find her so back home.
    I'm really fed up with every day merging into the next.
    Can't seem to get motivated to do anything. All seems a bit pointless.
