I will not watch this. Even after 8 years
I quite enjoyed italthough the forceps scared me :eek: The main thing I got from it was the HUGE responsibility the midwives and doctors have. They are amazing people.

My dd was born by forceps delivery. You would not believe the bruising I had afterwards. The doctors and midwives are amazing - so calm, they really earn their money.

I've been in bed for hours mostly because I suffer from depression and that's what depressed people do. Just had a text from someone who's a client at work. He said he was passing my area last night and we could have had coffee. I didn't reply to last nights text and now after 11pm tonight he texts again. I find all of this so disrespectful. Obviously coffee was the last thing on his mind. The man is 60
I get these sorts of offers quite a bit. Older men actually cannot see that the only reason I'm wearing a dress and being friendly is because I'm being paid to do PR at the places they meet me. They seem to think I dressed up specially for them.
Obviously I've not replied and I'm not going to. If the message was work related I'd reply in the morning.
I hate being treated like this. Would make anybody more depressed.Total debt 11/1/2011 €5350.65Total debt 12/12/12 €3222.31CrazyClothesChallenge 2013 #006 €34.08/€5000 -
Well you can't fault his perseverence.....probably thinks he's still 25....It's not how far you fall - it's how high you bounce back.... :jHappiness is not a destination - it's a journey0

He is so NOT. I find that older blokes like that are completely shameless, they have no fear whatsoever of rejection. The nice younger guys wouldn't dare ask most of the time.
I want the sexy actor back. I texted him earlier but when he replied he didn't even ask how I am.
@polesalot Is DD a Jedward fan? They want to represent Ireland in Eurovision again this year. We find out tonight if that'll be happening for them or not :rotfl: I'm still loving them
Paid €101 for 3 months car tax today. Dealing with bills is like firefighting at the moment. As soon as one's paid the next arrives.
Got a necklace in Topshop for €1.50 on the clearance rail. Was originally €20.50 so nice little bargain.
Had my make up done at BareEssentials today (the mineral foundation people) because they have a promotion on for makeovers and samples :T The girl did a lovely job, exceeded my expectations to be honest but I still won't be buying it. Well I'd like to but I have boxes overflowing with make-up and I'm like "living on the poverty line poor" so I have to absolutely LOVE something to buy it now.
What I do LOVE and plan on buying is the MAC 187 face brush. Problem is it's €45 and I feelabout spending such an obscene amount of money on a make-up brush. I mean that's 2 weeks worth of food when times are really bad
MAC charge €40 for makeovers here (redeemable against purchase) and I've made an apointment so that I'll be getting as much as possible for my money. Plus I have €30 in vouchers from shop-and-scan so really it's only €15 but I still feel
BUT I also feel :mad: that I should have to feel bad about spending a little money on something like that. Bloody recession :wall: I mean it's good for the economy that people buy frivolous things. It keeps the shops open and people in jobs. I mean old-style living doesn't create too many jobs does it?

Forgot to add I also got loads more cleaning stuff from T*sco. I didn't need it but things were half price and I had coupons as well. It was €3.89 for 20 persil capsules and around the same for woolite and I had €2 coupons for both. I got 2 huge 900ml bottles of fairy liquid, dettol anti-bac spray for 37 cents and the cif version for free because it was €1 and I had a €1 coupon.
I had to judge checkout staff on appearancebecause I needed someone who wouldn't question that I had a basket of family packs of branded household cleaning products and I was still getting change from €10 :rotfl:Found a nice young lad who clearly has no idea what cleaning products cost.
He took no notice at all but I have heard people say coupons are being refused when the products are on offer.Total debt 11/1/2011 €5350.65Total debt 12/12/12 €3222.31CrazyClothesChallenge 2013 #006 €34.08/€5000 -

Haha DD is not a Jedward fan - I'm trying to shape her tastes but am fighting a losing battle against the likes of Pixie Lott and Katie Perry.
I will win in the end thoughIt's not how far you fall - it's how high you bounce back.... :jHappiness is not a destination - it's a journey0 -
