    We are going to set up a table in the lounge and make it all pretty with candles etc.

    Have starters set out around 6p.m. Then about anhour later the turkey breast and posh veg then another delay and a posh chocolate torte for afters. At midnight we will pull crackers and hope for a better 2007. It will be me, DH and four DDs - we did say they were welcome to go out- but they all wanted it to be a family time.

    Three deaths, two operations and two diagnosis of terminal cancer in one year are enough for any family.

    Mornin everyone!!!!

    Huggs to everybody who wants some *huge huggs*

    Nothing new to report here really.. I just feel really shattered all the time :/
    Daughter is not happy at the clinic where she is so theres a meeting on tuesday to discuss her options :s She wants to go back to a more secure place.

    Had a huge row with my son last night.. he said some really hurtful things and said that he'd rather go livewith my mum :eek:

    I got a question... my right arm is constantly aching and feeling really heavy and my fingers keep going blue and numb or sometimes they get pins n needles.. but mostly i just have no feeling in them. any ideas? I can't get an apptment with my gp til the 8th jan.
    Of course you feel shattered - I feel shattered reading about it! Make 2007 a year where you look after you. Help and alternative sources for your family are out there, use them! You are doing your best.

    I would say to your son - bye bye, especially if he puts make up down the loo - I pity your mum tho' but she might be able to cope better. Your daughter sounds pretty hard work too. They sound like teenagers.

    My son keeps saying he can't wait to leave home, I keep saying, look for a place to live and don't be taken for a fool, with your money. We are downsizing when we move and it will be too cramped if he becomes the prodigal son, unless, he really tows the line.
    An average day in my life:hello: :eek::mad: :coffee::coffee::coffee::T :o :rotfl: :rotfl: :p :eek::mad: :beer:

    It certainly is:eek: Here's to a more peaceful 2007!

    Hi guys

    Good to see you all - blinky, good to see your hugs again!

    I have literally got a pain in the neck - this cold and gone to a cough that sounds like I'm a heavy smoker and it hurts when I cough too.

    Going well with husband. I have told him my feelings of fear when I feel low and this cold has made me very emotional and it brings some deep seated insecurities out. Once again, elona, something you said made me think - those pearls of wisdom do help!

    Neighbours were out but there is a car there, it might go or might be a deterrent for burglars but pray they don't come back and party tonight. I don't think I could cope if they came back and partied, even if it is Hogmanay.

    Doesn't sound like you are too well physically :o Get well soon :)

    Glad to hear it's going well with husband :)

    With any luck the neighbours have gone to a party hosted by someone else :D

    How you feeling blinky? was a bit worried about you.. was going to contact you offline but didn't want to cause any problems in case u were in company and they took it the wrong way.

    Are you feeling better? **hugggs**

    Please don't worry about me - I'm not worth it. Wouldn't have been a problem if you had contacted me. What goes on on my PC is my business.

    Yes, I'm feeling a bit better, tired though - not in any imminent danger. Missing 'R', I won't see her till Thursday. She had already arranged to be away with some girlfriends over New Year before we met. She's missing me too.

    Hope things pickup soon for you. You need to start looking for a new man. Don't say there isn't anyone out there for you - just look at me, that's what I thought until a few months ago :)

    It'll be a v quiet New Year for me. I'm the only one here and I'm on call for work (= no alcohol).

    2006 has been a bit up and down for me with some bad downs. I am looking forward to 2007 though. I think myself and 'R' have a great future together. :love:

    Hope this post hasn't been too mushy. :o

    Big hugs to all and especially those who are having a tough time.

    Hope you're feeling better soon. Your son moving out might be a good thing for him. It'll give him a chance to experience the real world and to find out it's not always nice. He'll appreciate you more for it. He'll probably pick someone thats close enough so he can bring his washing around and come to eat ;)

    Hope 2007 is good to you.

    I agree 2007 has got to be the year where things start to improve - 2006 has on the whole sucked, there have been some good bits tho'. Finding this thread being one of them!:)

    I do feel for you, wondering what mood to put yourself in for tonight, according to who will turn up and how they will be, mind you that is a normal day for me, in myself!

    I assume your flatmate will be with you whatever happens, I would hate for you to be alone.

    Some good bits in 2006........finding this thread, meeting 'S' properly....

    Well, she is a lottery, I love seeing her, want to be with her, but fear it at the same time. She likes a moan about other people, and I would jump if she said jump, as I really like her. People have told me to be careful and look out for myself as she may get used to me being so nice to her and start relying on it.

    Flatmate will be here. She's started to get a bit bored and annoyed of 'S' and her excuses, and all her issues. She said she's only letting her come over, mainly because of me these days. When she didn't show on Christmas Day, I hadn't seen flatmate so cheesed off since my ex took the pee, nearly 6 years ago. Flatmate is fairly passive, although I let her have things her way too, but on the rare occasions she loses it, like she did with my ex, you know it.........and I fear 'S' is rubbing her up the wrong way alot at the moment :o

    :wave: all

    Not long until 2007, where I feel we are all due alot of happiness :)

    'S' says she is coming today at 5pm and staying the night.......will believe it when I see it.

    She phoned flatmate as I was away, and flatmate said she asked 8 or 9 times in the same phone call if we were sure we wanted her to come over :o Very insecure :o

    I have my manly boxer shorts ready to show her - NOT! :rotfl: Well, I would return the honour of seeing her undies, but i'm not brave enough :rotfl:

    'S' is very hard to entertain as her concentration levels are limited, so it could be a long night.

    Happy New Year everyone

    :wave:

    Hope it goes well tonight. I do worry about about you and 'S'. I hope things continue to improve with you two as a couple.

    Hope 2007 is good to you.

    Thanks, it's good to know so many people on this thread are so nice :)

    I hope 2007 is good for you too and your current "scenario's" improve.

    Don't say you are not worth it, as you clearly are :) Just ask anyone here (apart from yourself!)
