Single and in Debt Part 3- The problem of surplus and excess women

Hi!
Hope everybody's doing well. I've had the lurg for over a week now. It's been starting to get me down this week, feeling so !!!! all the time, but wanting to get on and do stuff. Anyway, I feel slightly better this morning, so fingers crossed I'm turning a corner. I haven't really wanted to post cos it'd just be me moaning, but I've been lurking a bit. I've been feeling very single aswell, it'd be nice to have somebody to bring a cup of tea occasionally when you're ill.
Makeup - I'm not sure how I'd feel about the blind date thing to be honest, a bit bemused I think. Presumably after the date they would write some piece about you for the magazine? No matter how tempted I was about the free dinner, I don't think I'd want to appear in WO!
Sarah - Wow! Well done on the weight loss and savings - your ISA pot has more than doubled! Are the ISA savings different from the house savings?
Lula - I've been following your 'Carry on Questing' aswell. Glad you're enjoying your new job!
Firefox - I've been following your diary aswell. Don't feel bad that he's going to end up back on his Mum's sofa. This situation is one that he has created. Like you say, he can't stay for your sanity. As hard as it is, I think you have to be selfish now and think entirely of what is best for you. I'm so glad you're getting Noah, I'm sure he's going to be a massive comfort to you.
Hello to everybody else :wave: I'll probably be back on later.
GwenxThough no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending0 -
Hi eco, Happy Friday to you as well :j
Not sure about talking sense - have you read my posts when I'm on the elephant juice :rolleyes:.
Fab news on the Q10 eyes stuff, & on another subject ... have you got any leeks this year ? Just wondering as ours are pitifully small although very tasty
.
Niclj, good to have some time off & I know just what you mean about bad weather being an excuse for lounging about. I am planning on repainting the chest I started last weekend. Am fed up of having to hunt through carriers bags for my knickers every morning & trippin over the drawers on the floor :mad:
Had a nasty time at Tatco earlier & was so miffed that I completely forgot to get more elephant juice :eek: will just have to go out out again though as I really cant go another night sober :rotfl:
Feeling a bit despondent about the debt busting today.
Going for a drive now to cheer myself up
back later
xx
PS - Hi Gwen, you posted while I was still typing, glad to hear you're feeling better & welcome back0 -

I don't feel bad for him that he will have to sleep on the sofa, it just makes me feel sh*t that he'd prefer that to my flat and my bed.I've just taken him a cup of tea and the paper and he said it was a really sad day, he'd stayed in bed to avoid it and asked if I meant it when I said he could visit. That made me cry! Can't wait for Noah to arrive tomorrow, this evening is going to be awful.

Er, what's that ^ all about, rewards & being treated nicely for behaving in a way that makes you feel like !!!!!!. Er, no he cant damn well visit.He cheated & now has to spend the rest of his life kicking himself for being a !!!!!! & losing the best thing that ever happened to him. He also has to face the fact that he has been replaced by a cat

Stop trying to be nice because you think it'll be better for all of you- just STOP!
it'll hurt and offend your sensibilities but in time it'll all be A-OK!
thank you and now my ha'penny's worth is spent:DHi!

Ditto to what Gwen said all the illness, someone being nice to you and just caring:(
everything sucks at the moment. I'm at work today only because i was scared i might never leave my bed again cos of the depression and illness descending at the same time!:eek:
i hope you all have something nice planned for the weekend and i shall steer clear of posting any furtehr moans for fear of alienating absolutely EVERYONE i come into contact with with my stinking attitude:oBlessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heavenMatthew 5:30 -

The tea and paper were a last reminder if what he is losing.Noah is my priority from now on, and will be getting the five star treatment.
lLula I still love him more than I realised and in many ways we are absolutely perfect for each other. Mr. Fire Fox is my best friend as well as my lover, right now I can't cope with losing both. Maybe he won't visit but it means everything to me that he actually wants to.
We've been living separate lives for a year, and that part is my fault as much as his. I don't take responsibility for the way he man-handled the problem, but I do believe he is sorry. He cheated on his last serious girlfriend (much younger then) but didn't want to do the same again, I think this has made him really question himself.Declutterbug-in-progress.⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️0 -
Nic, I've never suffered with CFS but i guess it's no fun and when you have time off work it should be for rest as well as doing things you don't normally get to do.
Thanks Eco.
When I was diagnosed I was just relieved it wasn't anything more serious. My fear of needles was seriously tested during this time due to countless blood tests!
Now I find it frustrating. Some nights I don't have the energy to go upstairs to bed so end up sleeping on the sofa. And no matter how much sleep I get I still feel tired.
Anyway, enough moaning. It's inconvenient but not the end of the world.
Enjoying the soaps and a glass of wine. This is the life! :rotfl:0 -

Sarah - Wow! Well done on the weight loss and savings - your ISA pot has more than doubled! Are the ISA savings different from the house savings?
Yes, the ISA savings are my cushion/life savings, I am trying to get my ISA full asap and then I can concentrate on my meagre deposit for the rest of the year. I have set myself a target of 3 years to get the deposit together but I want to get it sooner than that if possible, hence attempting to be frugal:D

Glad you're feeling better, have been a bit poorly too this week and I totally agree about how it makes you feel very single. Have needed someone to make me a nice cup of tea and tell me to put my feet up. It's not the same when you have to do it all yourself

Hello peeps. I hope everyone is having a better Friday than me.
I found out this week that by Tenant has done a bunk owing a months rent & has caused more damage than the bond will cover :mad:
In case any one has a child who'se into playmobil, I stopped ito Tesco's on the way home & they a shelf full of the Jet Airliner reduced from £40 to £20 so I got my nephew one for crimbo :jAm fed up of having to hunt through carriers bags for my knickers every morning & trippin over the drawers on the floor :mad:
Go commando & to hell with the painting. You know its the way forwardI don't feel bad for him that he will have to sleep on the sofa, it just makes me feel sh*t that he'd prefer that to my flat and my bed.I've just taken him a cup of tea and the paper and he said it was a really sad day, he'd stayed in bed to avoid it and asked if I meant it when I said he could visit.

Fire Fox, from what I've gathered from people of both sexes I've known who've cheated, He'll be sorry because he was found out & sorry that there are consequences he doesn't like, but people who cheat do it because they like to & aren't sorry for doing the deed.0
