That's exactly how I feel, as though I'm waving the white flag. Every single day the same, waking up feeling carp and full of resolutions as to how today will be the day it all changes. And it doesn't. So alcohol wins again and clarabell loses. But I'm just at a loss as to what happens now I've admitted it.

I can identify.
It was a Groundhog day existence until I did something different. Just hoping it would change never worked for me. The only thing that changed was that things were gradually getting worse. I needed help.

True surrender meant me doing something about it.
Nothing happens because of me feeling different.
Change happens because I did something different.

Good luck Clarabell13

Thank you GC for the words of wisdom.

I'm tempted by the special offer Tuesday to Thursday challenge penelopedee, but not quite sure if I'm quite there yet so have set myself my own little Tuesday challenge to start with and see how it goes from there...

Good luck to you all on your own challenges!

Hello all,

2 more AFDs for me please Shaggy. :T

I don't feel very well today. I think the last 2.5 months of failed marriage stress and the lack of interest from potential buyers in our house, plus starting my evening job and uni starting again, has all finally hit me.

I am wiped out and feel defeated.

I feel poorly, so tired, I have got a coldsore and I feel really down and teary. And my time of the month has appeared unexpectedly this afternoon too..........thanks a bunch body!! It really knows how to crumble all at once!

And I have to go to work tonight too. How cr*p.

Anyway, whinge over. Sorry folks!

I am off to bed to try and get in a couple of hours sleep before I get ready for work.

Hugs to you all,

Caz

((((Cazza))))) i do feel for you - you really are having a bad time of it at the moment. Hope work wasn't to carp for you.

I'm declaring AF and going to bed early - slept very badly last night and am full of a cold.

Have good rest of your evening

Hi all

AF tonight so 5 for me please Shaggy. Not finding it easy though. I managed Friday and Saturday ok so I don't understand why some days are worse than others. About to go and watch the Great British bake off and try to cheer up!

Welcome to Clara and also to other returners.

Hope you all have a good evening.

Caz - Hope you feel better soon.

ETA: Pen I'll go for your offer of pledging just the one day. Thanks
