    Pooky, it's fine thanks hun. What Maz said the other day really hit home and I just put it behind us and let it go. Better to have fantastic kids 364 days a year and em forget one day than little gits all year round and angels for a day ehh ;)

    Saying all that, I dont think they'll EVER forget again :cool:
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    Absolutely. I'd cried for 2 days till she said what she said.

    I do think part of it was missing my own mum, it's always a really difficult day :(

    spud, I'd much rather have all-year round angels than horrible little terrors. It just proves you brought them up properly :)

    Bun, I'm glad I'm getting them fixed, it's about time I actually did something...But the fillings are booked for the 31st....Am a tad scared but it can't be as bad as feeling a dentist root around to get a tooth out....
    Have you heard anything more on how your friend is...you and her family are in my thoughts.

    Just waiting for the senior manager to call back next week (currently on holiday)....they've breeched their own terms and conditions so don't really have a leg to stand on....to be honest I'd just tell them to shove it and chuck it away but DH is fighting his corner.

    BIG MASSIVE HUGE HUGS BUNNY :grouphug:
    hmmmm, my lamb curry is more of a lamb stew. Nice but definitely NOT a curry consistency...

    Curries can be anything from dry to soup;)
    Sammy, I wouldn't have even thought about leaving work. I wouldn't have even bothered searching the job listings :rotfl: I think you and Sally I right though. I have changed my personality and working somewhere that doesn't repect you as a worker let alone a person isn't good for anyone :o

    Sally, I think I have decided deep down. Its just doing/saying it really :o If I was earning more/not running I would complete my journey on CD. I would get to goal and I would become a CDC but it obviously isn't part of my life journey anymore is it? Its just sad that I am another statistc on the CD diet that didn't complete it :(

    Your personality hasn't changed, but your confidence levels are soaring which means you are strong enough to show the world the person you always knew you were on the inside x

    And the ones that complete are statistics just the same as those that don't. There's no merit in sticking to something you've moved beyond just because you feel you ought to.
