Poor you, but think of the money and the aid to AFness!!

Hopefully managers are monitoring her 'sickness' record. Surely they'll have to find out when you claim the extra hours (if not before)?

Dont feel bad venting - its what we're here for - poor you SSG.

Jo well done on the feasting - I've got terrible bells, I'm heading into town, but will avoid the supermarket etc, in this kind of frame of mind, I'd drink the shop dry. House is safe as I've nothing in the house.

I'm angry at life and stupid ex husbands who steal your kids for the summer (OK it was agreed, but its still pants) and with everyone away lonely - big triggers for me, so have eaten and am going to get some fresh air with the dog and possibly gorge myself with plants at the garden centre.

Hugs to Sparkles and Fay.
I hope you are feeling better Sparkles. Do treat yourself a bit and know the feeling will pass. Are you any better?

Fay too. I know how you feel. Its a long time for the kids to be away. Hope you also feel better soon. The weeks will fly by before you know it. Keep very busy if you can.

Don't know what has triggered this off

Will get wrapped up and cosy and comfy and slope off to bed early

Hugs sparkles, thanks for the kind wishes peeps - DB you are right it will pass quickly but I hate bieng alone, daft really cos I've got so much to do.

I'm stuffing my face (haggis neeps and tatties) and about to immerse myself in some downloaded tv before going back outside.

Later I will also stuff my face

I bought a lavender, two tubs of chives (Lidls have there herb pots at 1.50 for two - they can go straight in the garden) and also got an orchid and 80 litres compost

Well its better than a bottle of wine......

Too true - well done and hang in there

I bought some gardening items for my mums christmas hamper from Sainsbugs today with 75% off so I hope she likes them.

I think I'm going for a run to try and cheer myself up while the rain holds

Back later

Back from the run now and feel much much better now - glad I went, it cheered me up no end

Hi All

Declaring AF again today so that brings my total to 6 AFD this month, so quite pleased:)

SSG Hope you are ok and dont overdo things at work.:)

Fedupandskint, hope you start to feel better, I know what its like to have real down days. It will pass and making some time for you is best at the moment.Oops just read you feel better after your run, well done you. (my typing is so slow lol):o

Jo , Glad your mum bought some bits over for you, hope you have a good week.:)

Sim, How are you doing today?

Miss P hope you and the family are all well.:)

I have had a really busy day today with housework and making lists for thing to do.
After seeing the thread re the C word (cant say it in full incase Lurkio sees lol)it really set me thinking I need to knuckle down.

I was naughty and had a drink on Friday and Saturday so have decided that if I really want to cut back on the spending etc then alcohol must go.:mad:


My car is due a service and MOT this week so keeping everything crossed.:eek: Its payday on Wednesday so need to get my budgets sorted out PDQ.

Hope everyone has a good week, will catch up again soon.

love
