Morning all, I am so happy, Thomas is back. This morning at about 7.30 our door bell went and I knew it had to be about him. A little girl two doors down had seen him on her garden wall. Apprently he had been there two days :rolleyes: We think something has scared him so he forgot what house he bellonged to :rotfl: So cost me £20 + £5 to update his microchipo records but at least he is home. Going to see if I can invest in some feliway today and he is not going out untill the weekend :T

So off to work now, well in an hour, and doing overtime so wont be home untill late. I hope evryone has a fab Thursday and remember its nearly the weekend :T

Love & hugs to all unwell, under the weather or just needs them Hug_by_Abfc.gif

    Hooray Pap - so happy for you! :D :T

    Soo windy out there this morning, hard work walking to work!

    Had a bit of a grumpy evening last night but cheered up by arranging for my best mate to visit in January and having a really good run.

    Enjoy (?) the housework Luc.

    Pap, that's brilliant news, I'm so happy for you. And I bet he's totally oblivious to the fuss he caused?

    Not much planned for me until later, I've got Italian at 6 but because I've missed the last two weeks I'm going to go in at 5 and go through it with the teacher.

    Morning everyone. I'm really pleased thomas is back Pap.

    I'm waiting for Lily to wake up, why does she keep me up half the night and then snore through my alarm? I'm sure she hears it and thinks that it means it's now time to get some sleep :)

    Want to go back to bed but I'm vigilante bidding on ebay and if I win I need to pay straight away.

    I've just read back last night about the stress thing. In my one and only CBT session, the psychologist gave me a great tip. When someone wants you to do something, think about whether you'd be 'wronging' them if you said no. So, for instance, that night I went round to my sisters cos she wanted me to show her how to make pastry. I hadn't had lunch and was starving and thought she'd do the pastry straight away. An hour later and she was still p!ssing about doing other stuff, so I asked her when it'd be cos what I was having for tea would take about an hour to cook. She got all huffy because she wanted to do loads more stuff first and I nearly caved, but then realised that I wouldn't be wronging her by leaving, but in fact I'd be wronging myself by hanging around indefinitely. Hope that helps people, it's been a huge help for me.
