Having one of those months, my uncle has died he had cancer and his funeral is on Monday 11th I am getting fed up of people in my family dying from cancer it's like were jinxed, I've been asked by a friend to go see the Manics on the 11th, he's paid for the ticket and really want to go.

We are getting a bonus at work before Christmas and really need it my DD for gas and electricity as gone up.

Was out on Saturday night and got talking to this guy who I thought was ok, gave him my number but do you think he's texted or rang? course he ain't don't really know what I expected, just lately my luck as been like a bit of good luck then a big dose of bad luck, I could scream, but I'll live when I've finished screaming.

I had some bad luck last year, so far Im managing well, my dad I have no idea how long he has but Im keeping cheerful and trying to get on with my life. Had my cv overhauled again and its looking snappier so off I keep applying for jobs. I am determined to find a better life. I understand also how let down you feel by that guy. Men are weird, you know they chat to you then they ask for your number and then they change their mind.

I find by having a good cry that sorts me out. Next week im finally going for physio for my tendonitis in my shoulder. Yesterday I was so tensed up my neck head and both shoulders were agony. I just want a bloody good massage on it. My friend david who used to massage my shoulder for me has gone back to scotland now after leaving the workplace where I work. He rewrote my cv and is now back with his parents while he tries to get a job up there. Lucky guy.

I'm calmer now I've had my rant and having a drink which I don't normally do mid week, but only having one.

Butterflies I sympathise with you, it's hard when you have a parent who is ill and there's nothing you can do to stop the inevitable, when my mum was ill I ended up having time off work with stress cos I couldn't cope with the thought of losing my mum.

Right onwards and upwards tomorrow will be a better day, cos I'm not going to let anyone grind me down, forgot a famous phrase I'm fabulous so everyone get out of my way.

Or 'Get out of my way, I'm fabulous!' God I'm premenstrual and ratty. MUST fight it by getting glammed up for work tomorrow and making myself feel better. X

Hey Eco

Really sorry to hear about your Uncle. I hope the funeral goes well and that your sister can manage to get the time off work after all.

Sometimes work places are awful about things like that.

Big hugs xx

I'm off to my cousins wedding on Friday so tomorrow is my last day this week!!! Hurrah!!!

Then I think I'm coming home via Ikea (woo hoo!) and then on Sunday going to see my friends new place and then going to a private view at an art gallery (via a pal of mine - fabulous and free!)

Hope you all have a good weekend!

Hello Ladies,

still no internet in my flat so have sporadic access when I'm visiting uni on Brewery business.

Butterflies I hope you're staying strong and coping well, one of my closest friends's dad only has weeks left and I know how hard it is.

MissLauren, glad to hear that you're still motivated and cracking on with the fashion design, you've got some talent there!

Makeup, I just sent my electoral form back last week so I'm safe for now ;P Good news about the extra money though.

Eco, hope it all sorts itself out, family can be a nightmare but blood is thicker than water etc etc...

Souk... hell yes you're fabulous!

Where is everyone?

the Manics were brilliant on Monday night, it's taken me all week to catch up on sleep, and went out Friday night, had a brilliant week, if you don't count the funeral.

Had loads of stuff to say can't remember half of it now, was told by one of my friends on Friday night not to put myself down, I told him I had to cos a lot of folk think I'm big headed if I don't.

I'll be back when I remember what I was really going to say.

While you think
Glad you had a good week and managed to have some fun after the funeral.
As for putting yourself down- It's obviously not about you so why are we pandering to those whose sensibilities might be offended by your fabulousness.:cool:
i have just had the realization that i act like an fool and overcompensate for my shyness by acting big, bad and bold a lot becasue i don't want people to realise i'm not but then get p'd off when they treat me like i'm stupid and incapabale- self sabotage anyone???:eek:
Look up that speech attributed to Mandela about our biggest fear being our greatness!

I'm still around - what's everybody up to?

Uuuuugggghhhh.... I'm being blackmailed into finishing my business degree before fashion school. Well... bribed. With a new car! So unfair... but kind of cool... but unfair.....

I don't know what to dooooo......!!!

Im still here, been busy applying for jobs. Went to physio last week and this week and I have got frozen shoulder. Physio hurts but I have to keep it mobile. On my rest day yesterday went to my brothers to clean his house and he gave me £50 for it. Maybe I should do this for other people?
Dad is having radiation therapy once a week, he lies on sofa all time. Looks weak.

Going pics on sat night with my work mate darren, no its not a date, I have no interest in men at the moment.

Hope everyone is ok.;)
