I am going to go to the docs and go back on ADs, getting so much worse now. Going to order the book I mentioned in Firewalkers thread but still haven't found that gift voucher. If I can't find it tomorrow I will just order it anyway. Will get the toxic parents at the same time. Mine weren't exactly toxic but they had they own problems that they dumped on us. Seems that I took it more personally than my brother thou.
Sorry haven't read back, will see if I get a chance tomorrow evening. Getting on so well with my cross stitch that just want to sit and stitch"Everything will be alright in the end. If it's not alright, it's not the end."

My friend Andy (very high achiever - squillions of degrees, entrepreneur, former senior naval officer) swears by it. I must re-read it one day.
enjoy cross stitch.

Jumping off cliffs no good. I thought about this once but now that I have DD it is not an option as I don't trust anyone else to look after her.
I am thinking of finding a way to leave the country for a year or two, just need to find a good enough reason for the court to allow me so that ex can't come after me and demand me to move back (his bloody rights, pah). The situation is ridiculous concidering that both I and DD are not even British and then this one person can keep us on ransom here. Double pah."Everything will be alright in the end. If it's not alright, it's not the end."

Ok folks we must cheer up. apologies this is not having a go at American's in anyway all the one's I know are intelligent. But it made me feel less miserable:
How do these people survive?
ONE
Recently, when I went to McDonald's I saw on the menu that you could have an order of 6, 9 or 12 Chicken McNuggets.
I asked for a half dozen nuggets.
'We don't have half dozen nuggets,' said the teenager at the counter.
'You don't?' I replied.
'We only have six, nine, or twelve,' was the reply.
'So I can't order a half dozen nuggets, but I can order six?'
'That's right.'
So I shook my head and ordered six McNuggets (Unbelievable but sadly true...)
TWO
I was checking out at the local Walmart with just a few items and the lady behind me put her things on the belt close to mine.. I picked up one of those 'dividers' that they keep by the cash register and placed it between our things so they wouldn't get mixed.
After the girl had scanned all of my items, she picked up the 'divider', looking it all over for the bar code so she could scan it.
Not finding the bar code, she said to me, 'Do you know how much this is?'
I said to her 'I've changed my mind; I don't think I'll buy that today.'
She said 'OK,' and I paid her for the things and left.
She had no clue to what had just happened.

A woman at work was seen putting a credit card into her floppy drive and pulling it out very quickly.
When I inquired as to what she was doing, she said she was shopping on the Internet and they kept asking for a credit card number, so she was using the ATM 'thingy.'
(keep shuddering!!)
FOUR
I recently saw a distraught young lady weeping beside her car. 'Do you need some help?' I asked.
She replied, 'I knew I should have replaced the battery to this remote door unlocker. Now I can't get into my car. Do you think they (pointing to a distant convenience store) would have a battery to fit this?'
'Hmmm, I don't know. Do you have an alarm, too?' I asked.
'No, just this remote thingy,' she answered, handing it and the car keys to me. As I took the key and manually unlocked the door, I replied, 'Why don't you drive over there and check about the batteries. It's a long walk....'
PLEASE just lay down before you hurt yourself !!!

Several years ago, we had an Intern who was none too swift. One day she was typing and turned to a secretary and said, 'I'm almost out of typing paper. What do I do?' 'Just use paper from the photocopier', the secretary told her. With that, the intern took her last remaining blank piece of paper, put it on the photocopier and proceeded to make five 'blank' copies.
Brunette, by the way!!

A mother calls 911 very worried asking the dispatcher if she needs to take her kid to the emergency room, the kid had eaten ants. The dispatcher tells her to give the kid some Benadryl and he should be fine, the mother says, 'I just gave him some ant killer......'
Dispatcher: 'Rush him in to emergency!'Aiming for a minimal spend 20220
