Morning all, just got up. I am supposed to be going to this exhibition thing but i am not going by bus might as well go in a taxi it will save lots of time so i can stay in my pjs for a bit longer.
I used to make people feel welcome, i dont know much financial stuff, but i stopped doing it when i was being trolled I must start it again not to let the !!!!!!!s win i suppose. Tixy is an inspiration to me she welcomes and helps. Your reason is different you are tired and it is exhausting sometimes. I left one diary because of this.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220 -
Afternoon everyone - I was up before 12 noon .. honestly 11.30 am to be precise
Mr 3Dogs has been busy taking things down to the storage unit and has the doggies out for their second long walk now
SSAngel - what can I say - I totally agree with you as that is exactly how I have felt for the last few months. As soon as I had some knowledge gleened from this site, I started to advise others as best I could. As my knowledge grew, or queries arose which I already knew about from personal experience, I advised more and more. But that is what, in the end, led to my diary being trolled and at times you wonder whether you should just keep to yourself. I still advised sometimes but less and less and now rarely do it. With me I don't think it is apathy, it is more the sickening feeling of what is out there - the abuse, the nastiness, the trolls. It nearly drove me, and others, away from MSE but I think I speak for all of us that we are so pleased we stood up to that and stayed
I know that I have had a lot to deal with outside of MSE during this time, and that has to have an affect on how I look at things and how much time I have to spare, but I just can't find any excuse for the behaviour which I have seen - none at alland it continues to make me feel very sad

Hello!
I am getting red x's on your last post Kit.
I went to the arcade last night, i only changed up a pounds worth of 2ps, but i ended up wining a crisp £5 note! I was very excited. I've made £6 in two days, so i'm defo buying a lottery ticket incase its third time lucky.
Glorious weather here today, i went to boots and bought an instant fake tan on the reccomendation from the hair dresser. Or perhaps its "the only way is essex" influence!! Either way, i have it on my face and its looking great.
Have a good day everyone!0 -

I used a calculator jobby when i moved out. I obviously wasn't very good at it because we had more money left over than that suggested. So now i don't bother0

Hi guys - been very busy this afternoon as we took our old 3-seater settee and armchair to the tip and brought in the cottage suite (2-seater settee with 2 armchairs) in from the storage unit which we bought off our neighbouring stall-holder a couple of weeks ago for £50 - and before anyone mentions freecycle/freegle after a years use with 3 dogs and a messy OH, I would not think anyone would want the old one
Our living room is now looking much bigger as the old settee/chair took up so much space - so room looks tidier already - just got to get the pile of ebay/car boot/etc stuff piled in one corner sorted outWe will get there eventually
Mr 3dogs also brought round some paving slabs from my friends as she has had them for ages and wanted them out of the way - we want to pave one side of our front garden where the 3 wheelie bins stand as we will possibly pull a small trailer on there when we get sorted out with a tow-bar on the vanMr 3Dogs 3-7-12

Yah to the new suite & the paving stones
Thanks hun - to be honest, I wasn't sure about the suite we got but it does improve the room - mind you, Billy is not thrilled about it as it has narrower 'backs' and he used to always lie on top of the soft thick back cushions of the old suite - and Bonnie and Bess are not happy as they don't stand a chance of getting on the new sofa coz, with it being smaller, once Billy is on there, lying full length, there is no room for them
How are you today petal?Mr 3Dogs 3-7-12
