    *is considering leaving the thread due to all the anti-Chelsea feeling* :p

    Morning peeps :)

    I HUFFED last night so that's 4 for me & 2nd day of the latest challenge completed :)

    Leigh/Sim, your GF has probably sensed the end of the relationship on the cards & how you feel towards her & this is likely to be what's made her so clingy & obsessive right now. I know it's not comfortable (from both sides, IYSWIM). The best & most decent thing to do is be honest, end it & set up some kind of payment plan for the money. Then you can both move on :)

    PBT/365, hello :wave:

    Sparkles, we all know you as Sparkles - do you have to change? Sorry about the ex tho :( *hugs*

    Morning guys.

    Honeybear - thanks, good advice.

    Been awake about an hour and a half, after only a few hours sleep.

    I'm determined to get up now though, as since Thursday I haven't left my flat at all, and I've been sleeping in the day, and been up every night..

    Bonkers eh? :-/

    Gonna force myself out of flat with 'the other half' today for sun and walks, as I've been becoming sort of agoraphobic about going out :-( How wussy is that for a 36 year old bloke..

    I'm shattered and overwhelmed by everything I have to deal with, and without a drink :-O

    Please tell me life gets easier!

    Enjoy your day folks.

    Sim x

    Time for breakfast :-)

    :hello:

    Another vote for sparkles here!

    Enjoy your walk in the sunshine sim, you really need to get out more and stop this living in the dark (both literally and metaphorically).

    Have a good day eveyone.
