    I am very cross.... very cross indeed!!! I now have a THIRD church refusing to baptise the baby.. !!!!!!.. she is a BABY!!!! I thought these twaddleheads wanted people to go? So why are they turning them away????????

    I am so angry I could cry..

    ARGH!!! Emotional declutter there... I am now off to bed!

    Go to a higher authority!

    Or go to your local paper/TV station!

    Honestly - you'd have thought you'd have a loyalty card from the church now for the number of kids you've had - surely they'd fight to have you on their books?

    Morning flying ppls,

    How we all doing?
    Thats so wrong about refusing to baptise your little one Piggers, I think Trikker made some good points and oooh its just disgusting.

    Counsellor this morning at work. Am feeling too sick with anxiety to eat yet but I know it will be ok. The hynotism mp3's helped a bit yesterday.. well I ended up dozing off after wards lol. I must do them on a regular basis, especially the anti-anxiety one.

    After counselling I have to go and pick up some paint and bits from town. That will be good fun as I also need to pick out a new light shade and I will be picking a nice sunny colour. The funds will be coming from my savings, yes I will be sensible but also will be fun.
    And maybe pop in and see my cousin and one of my goddaughters for coffee on my way round. Work is a long way (26miles each way) so as I am out I may as well do a few other bits while I am out too.

    Anyhows, off to finish getting ready,.. have a good day all and I will be catching up with you later

    Love, Hugs and Spoons
