O/S Daily Saturday 5th Feb

Dazi

not read all the thread yet, will go back and recap.

so hugs to those who need and anyone who wants one.

Had the night from hell last night and today has been like plaiting fog.

DSD came last night, OH was still on night out working, DSD wanted to go out, I gave her my key, but you never sleep till they get in do you? went to bed at 12 reading and nodding off every so often, waking up and looking into her room to see if she was back, errr no! didn' know what to do when it got to 1 o/c no good ringing OH as he was a couple of hours down the road, not got her mum's moby no and thought if I rang the house phone she wouldn't hear it. Got a text at 2.15 from her mum to say she (DSD that is) was drunk, at a house somewhere, no blood monitor and phone dead. Cue me and her mum ringing each other through the next 2 hours, her mum tracked her down and she refused to come to either ours or her home. Her mum finally got her home at 4, I didn't fall asleep till gone 7. I am too old for this, so today has been wasted as I have been like a zombie, was up again at 9.30.

We have all had talks with her today, not sure she really understands why we were all so worried, she is only 16! she seems to think we all protect her too much as she is diabetic and she wants to be like her mates.

Apologies for no OS content in my post, am tired to the bone and wondering what happens next. x

Well I am stuffed to the gills with HM cupcakes that friend had baked for afternoon tea today:D

And I bought myself a lovely pair of wedge platform peep toe shoes from New Look this morning. Had to buy them now as sod's law if I leave it til actual spring they'll not have any left in my size. Besides it would have been rude not to

So don't pretty much sod all and had pie and chips from the chippie

EG - sorry to hear about your uncle. Hugs for you all xx

Sorry haven't read thread yet so big hugs to any
poorlies and those having a tough time.

Haven't eaten yet as DH is currently trying to get everything
organized as he is away early tomorrow with work and
not home again till Thursday night.

Am making the spaghetti and sardine recipe that's in march's
Good Food magazine so it won't take long just hope it
tastes as nice as it looks in the picture.

DD is still in bits she answered her phone last night and it was
the ex BF, he was really horrible to her and then started being nice
and begging her to take him back and saying she is the love of his
life. He's just saying what he thinks she wants to hear, saying he's
changed and will treat her better this time!!

Anyway DH has just come back on so I'm off to make dinner, will
pop back and read thread later.

Hugs xx

Sorry for your trouble, 16 is a hard age. Its even harder when you have an illness you wont to do everything that everyone your age is doing but for health resons its harder for you.

Im 30 and im not meant to drink because of my head. But i do. Yes i know that i should not be doing it but still i like a drink. It still have too much somtimes. Now if i was 16 then it would be even harder for me to say no.

Sorry i can not offer any more help.

Would it be worth her getting a new phone number?

JulieGeorgiana Its popcorn and a movie in our house tonight once DGS has gone down to sleep (fingers crossed):eek: I have known him to be up until we go to bed but he is getting better. He is 21 months

I hope you managed to get your popcorn and a movie!

We did

I wonder if it's time I pay money for a popcorn machine... any suggestions anyone? Or should I stick to making it in the frying pan?

Stick to a pan.
We use an old saurce pan with a lid.
Them pop corn makers are ok but i know a few people who ahve them that have used them a few times and then can not be botherd and go back to a pan!. if i had one i think id be the same.
We have a dounut maker it only cost baout £15 form aldi we have used it a grand totel of 3 times in the last 12 months. 2 of them times were in the first month of buying it.

Hi All,

Sorry not be online for ages, but I have read the thread most days, usually from the office, hence the not logging on!

Hope those who are poorly, family problems, upsets, are feeling a little better this evening, my thoughts are with you all, hugs and high fives, to everyone who wants one.

I thought I would log on and tell you all how much I have appreciated those who post every day, I only wish I could spend some more time reading and digesting everything, but just reading the bit I can do, has given me so much help in the last few weeks.

My health is not great at the moment, and for the last number of weeks have been feeling very tired, run down, not sleeping most nights, and really feeling sorry for myself, also just been told I am going through an early menopause (great!) and homelife has been dragging me down, work is cr*p as well, but I suppose I should be glad of a job - I won't bore you all with the details.....

BUT with the help of my friends on MSE, I am getting better, at least better organised, so thats an improvement in itself. I have managed to do an inventory of the freezer, something I have not been able to do for ages (years really), I have made meal plans for the last couple of weeks and it has worked very well, kept to them most days, and with some batch cooking, and knowing exactly what I have in the house, means I can throw a meal together very quickly. I am still working on cleaning up the house, which is a tip, most of the time but I actually spent a half hour today decluttering and feel, if I can do a little most weekends I will eventually sort this mess out.

I have decided to get off my fat a** and get myself moving and have started a Zumba class one night a week, great fun, VERY energetic, althought first night I might need an oxygen mask, but I am still going. I am now looking to do an aqua aerobics another night, so that should help with getting myself moving and feeling a little fitter than I am at the moment and hopefully a bit better in my head, for my sanity, if nothing else.

Right now, I am sitting yet again on my a**, watching TV, glass on wine close by, reading MSE, and catching up on Facebook ,so if you get a friend request from Cait, thats me.

Sorry for the long post, have a good night everyone, whatever you decide to do, talk to you all tomorrow.
