    Just quick hello, I will do more lengthy replies tomorrow, as flatmate is around 'S' place, so i'll be worrying then :o

    Right now, gotta help flatmate sort some clothes she's taking to 'S' to see if she wants some.

    I dunno why, but we did it for 5 hours last night, and I oddly enjoyed myself, probably because i'm such a joker and joke every 2 minutes, which usually gets me a joke slap :o

    Last 2 days, decent mood. Worried about 'S' and worried she may go off me.

    Anyway, as I say, will reply more to you all tomorrow........Thanks for the mention Rose, will reply to your essay's tomorrow :rotfl: ;)
    I do understand the feeling a person may go off you.

    I bet S will be happy with some 'new' clothes. I love looking thro clothing
    Whatever the outcome, it won't be your fault - people are so complex.:o

    I think that's a good idea; take the chance to make a day for yourself. Something you enjoy doing that you normally don't have the chance to. Take a long bubble bath, catch up on some reading perhaps. Or maybe if you feel like it go out somewhere nice for a stroll? Sx

    Okay............I will reply to you all..........later..........right now, follow my instructions........

    Repeat after Miroslav......."Miroslav is a fool, Miroslav is a prat, Miroslav is not very good at this friendship lark"

    As planned, at 12:45, flatmate and I walked with clothes, CD's and freeview box. The plan was I dropped flatmate off just around the corner from where they were meeting........as I say, it was the plan.

    Instead, flatmate decided to take another route.......okay I thought, so she might see me from a distance.......didn't want that to happen as don't want to be around every corner she turns, as things are going well.......don't wanna push it.

    So we are walking along, just gotta cross the road..........arrrrggggggggghhhhhhh, she's walking down on the other side........so I put the bags on the floor, said cya later to flatmate, and pegged it :rotfl: :o Didn't even wait for 'S' to notice I was there, although when I looked round to check no traffic was coming so I could cross another road, she clearly had noticed me.........so now she may think I was ignoring her :o but I basically cacked myself and left the scene! I didn't want to bump into her as I don't want her thinking i'm moving too fast.

    Anyway, had a text from flatmate saying she liked alot of the clothes and the freeview box is setup, and she says thanks, so text flatmate back, with a simple 'Good' .

    Flatmate was having another of her mis-understanding evenings late last night and was the same this morning, picking at me for shaving, saying she would take me as I was, despite my protests that I shave if anyone I like I might see. She also got in a huff with me as i'm doing stuff for 'S' but not her, which is no way true, it's just that for once, she has to share my helpfulness with someone else.

    She's been telling me i'm being silly for being so nervous and not wanting to bump into her...........it's not that I don't, it's that I don't want it going too fast either, cos i'm pretty scared myself, I haven't got to know someone new outside of therapy/work etc for many years. She keeps putting my fears down, so much so, i'm now panicking again about meeting her.

    I heard her on the phone this morning (I know it sounds like I listen in........I don't, my flatmate is very loud!) and she told 'S' I was helping her 1/2 way, when I wasn't, I was going virtually the whole distance, and flatmate said she'd say something other than explaining that I didn't want to seem like I was in her face by walking the whole way and bumping into her.

    She's being a pain at the moment, she likes taking all the credit and making herself good, but in doing that, she'd make me look ungentlemanly by saying I only carried her bags 1/2 way, and I pride myself on being a gentleman.

    I dunno, maybe that rant is silly, but it's how I feel.

    :hello: Hi everyone - hope this Sunday morning finds you well. At least we all seem to have survived Friday the 13th!:eek:
    I'm dreading Halloween - firstly, around 14,000 children banging on my door, dressed in the nastiest things they can find, demanding sweets or money,(so I'll have to mortgage my other kidney to afford them ;) ), dressed as every horror character ever created.
    My DS will be out with his own friends and as they're all new college performing arts students, they are bound to look like extras from the Hammer House of Horror films! Not only that,but at the start of the day I'll get up and be forced to look in the mirror!!!:eek: :rotfl: Oh and we must not forget all the fireworks that will be let off between now and the middle of January - it's like the Blitz all over again -and no,:rolleyes: I wasn't around at that time!:p
    Last year, I handed out to a few trick or treaters but when it hit 6.30pm, I stopped answering the door. Knocking kept on though. See, the little devils (no pun intended) communicate with each other, scouting out and informing the rest of them about where the sweets and money came from!
    I answered the door saying 'I'm sorry, I've got nothing left - there were gangs of you earlier on - would you like a piece of fruit?'
    You should have seen the looks on their faces - FRUIT?!!! It was like I'd tried to poison them!:rotfl:
    Anyway - more later - tired Tiffster:o Posting re. guided meditation as requested and Bunnie - I haven't forgotten about the benefits advice either. :)
    Thanks to Rose for your kind words angel - we are privileged to be among such kind souls aren't we?;) Thanks guys,
    Much love,

    Hi everyone:)

    My day yesterday

    Went for a drive yesterday. It was really sunny and pretty warm for mid October.

    The traffic was busy and it makes me jumpy. There are some idiots out there. We had an minor accident on holiday in 1983 and ever since I have been a jumpy passenger.

    We test drove a car yesterday which was nice. Need to think it over. My mum is contributing a certain amount. She bought my son a new car, so only fair I get something too:)

    Went to a distillery and had lots of whisky - we bought a bottle for Christmas. They were taking about whisky to invest. I might post on another board asking about that.

    When we got home the people behind were having a dinner party. Normally, I don't worry but they are the ones with the chavvy 20something aged psycho 'children'. They made some noise when they went out into the courtyard but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be but given their past behaviour, I don't trust them, so couldn't relax till 4am.

    I put a whole chicken in the slow cooker and the meat just fell off. Had fun sieving out all the grotty bits but it made a yummy satay thai curry. Had some free sample pilau rice with it. It was great. Shall have a chicken and mushroom casserole tomorrow. Son eats with us Monday and Tuesday, so like to do nice food for him.

    We saved heaps yesterday. We made cheese olive rolls, had some Lidl shortbread (the best!), and low fat crisps for our packed lunch that we ate in the distillery car park. We still had the taste of whisky in our mouth, so the shortbread was extra yummy in the highland air.

    We tried to eat in our fav Italian restaurant but it was full, so we got some chicken kebabs from a takeaway and cobbled something together at home with it.

    Not eating out paid for the petrol.

    CCStar, very busy day, which is great, good o be busy and doing things.

    I have, tidied, hoovered, more tidying, clened surcaces, taken the baby for a walk, done the shopping, changed my bed (as i was starting to stink :rotfl: ),and tidied away clothes (as they were everywhere :o ).

    Can you tell im tring to keep myself busy and mind busy too. (dont want this week to come, maybe if i dont wake up tomorrow i can just sleep till friday. :rotfl:
