Good morning, kazwookie, and all who follow. I got up at 4 to go to the loo and found that some b%^$*£%d toerag has broken into our outbuilding and decluttered our chain saw, lawnmower, hedge trimmer and 4 bicycles :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: We have a plod coming round later, and I have to ring the insurance once the office opens. Bright side - my bike (that I use for work) wasn't taken, and DH and the children will get new bikes.
DD and I are giving blood later.
Off to find a list, and do some displacement activity.
Well done to G'n'B!
Hugs for L-L, toots, Diva and anyone else who wants one.
See you all later :A:rudolf: Sheep, pigs, hens and bees on our Teesdale smallholding :rudolf:0 -

Oh PenPen, what a horrible start to the day.
Must have been something in the air - I was wide awake at 3 this morning :eek: Did get back to sleep about 4, but wandering around with a :coffee:at 6.0 -
Ugh I feel awful, I've just sent off the email to my friend and now I am sitting here in tears because I am wondering if I should have done it. I am wondering if I should have written off the £120 odd, and not said anything. I even ended up waffling away at the end of the email telling her how I felt I couldn't talk to her now and that I really missed her now she had moved to the West of the country. Oh gods I can't even ask for some money without getting paranoid over it.. I am dreading when she reads it as she is either going to send me a really shirty email or text throwing her toys out of the pram, or ring me up and I really don't know I could handle that. It kind of seems wrong of me to ignore the email/text/phone call if they come from her but I don't know if I can talk to her without getting upset. I know she is going to be angry and she'll probably say horrible things to me - she did last year when I mentioned the cost of vets fees concerning her Fred. You know I really wish I hadn't taken that cat in, but then I am glad I did because he got vets treatment and died happy and loved and with company. Oh gods I feel like !!!!! now!! I have my stomach doing all sorts of things, horrible taste in my mouth and now I feel sick..ugh!! Why do I feel like this.? Maybe I should take up my friend Tracys offer of going round to her place today, but then I don't want to be a burden/pain to her. She has her own things to do, and she can be very busy.. Oh I really wish I hadn't been impulsive and sent that email!!! Probably doesn't help that I still don't have the full effects of my tablets back in my system yet. I've even had to promise that I won't self harm and I really want to do something like that, at least it will stop me thinking about the email..:(
Thank gods I didn't send the email yesterday as planned, I think it would have ruined a nice evening with DH and I know he would not have been best pleased especially as he made an effort and came home early from work. Kind of surprised me as I had literally only just got back from T's and the library.. It was a nice surprise though as we had a lovely evening. Yikes we are one step away from "pipe and slippers", so to speak..lol
I know I will do the ironing as there is a pile left over from yesterday and what dried yesterday needs ironing too. I'll crank the radio up and listen to Chris Evans and hope I don't throw up anywhere..
Thanks for reading and putting up with this post..sorry it isn't flying I just needed to get it off my chest and I thought writing it down might help.

Ugh to top it all just had an email from my friend S. I look after her dog for 3 weeks in the summer, and when they go away for the night - you remember I mention Beth who my DDogs's adore. Well she hasn't been well (the dog not S!) for a couple of days and has been losing weight a bit quickly. Tests have come back that she is cancer, no lumps, just losing weight at a very alarming rate. That would explain why she hasn't wanted to eat I imagine. Oh darn I'm now in tears over this..Beth is part of the family when she comes here to stay, we've been having her to stay for the past 3 years now. She was due to stay with us in August but I would imagine that she won't be now. Well if it doesn't rain it pours with me..lolMortgage Free as of 20.9.17Declutter challenge 2023, 2024 🏅 🏅⭐️⭐️
