Can I just ask you all please?...

Do I seem like I have a sense of humour?

Honestly, I feel like a stupid, thick, ignoramus...this is obviously how she sees me...and OH sees me totally different to how I think I am...I'm just wondering now if that is how I am and I have a totally over-inflated view of myself..........

NOPE! ;):rotfl:

Well i didnt like to say....... :D:p:rotfl:

Im teasing, sorry. I hope I havent made you cry even more.

Emails are difficult as people dont always read them how they were intended - please dont take it personally....and dont lose your sense of humour - some days its all we have to keep us sane!

Big squishy hugs pet xx

What the others said! Why do people we care about sometimes seem to try so hard to upset us!

Valli - love the shoes. Fortunately they're out of stock in my size, otherwise I'd have to be upset that I can't afford them at the moment.
lil_me - nice to see you. Hope you get some time to look after yourself.
grateful and cycling yorkie - (((((hugs)))))

My budget until the end of the month is tight, but possible. I'm waiting for the bank to let me know about the mortgage payment holiday and hope to hear on Monday. I've asked for two months, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I'm really pleased that I've finally taken control of my finances again. I used to be really good at it, but in the last few months I've just put it off, thinking I'd have to sort all my paperwork first. There's a lot to do in the next year to save some money, like comparing insurances. At least I've made a start.

Someone mentioned being tired - I've really struggled to do anything in the evenings this week and couldn't motivate myself in the mornings, either (often do school work 6-7). I'm also struggling to stay awake now, so I'll have a quick look at the list and then go to bed. Good-night, all. x

ETA Did anyone else enjoy the World Cup concert last night?

Morning All

Need to do loads today really but I've been up half of the night coughing so I don't really feel like it.

I did go to work on my bike yesterday and the kids were really impressed that one of the staff were on their bike as well - I don't think they could quite believe it - so I was pleased I'd gone on it.

So far this morning all I've done is put the WM on. I had just managed to get back to sleep on the settee as DS came downstairs.

Have a good day all

Hugs
