Have a good day everyone - I'll be revising mostly or at least thinking about it for a massive exam this weekWhat!!!! That is just soooo wrong
Totally agree. I'm no killjoy but to assume that everyone would want to be part of a glorified drinking game is highly irresponsible!
Good luck with your exam sparkles.darwins_mum wrote: »Hi Mari, sorry to hear times are tough in RL.

Have a great day everyone. I'm off to do a bit of shopping and a gallery and then a good (late) lunch. Despite feeling miserable last night, the unhungover feeling is good.0 -

ShaggyxWhat do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.0 -

Morning All!!
Just caught up on 2 days worth of posts. Well done to everyone for doing so well!!
Lala - Good luck for the interview today.
Mari - Sorry to hear you're having a hard time in RL Sending you hugs:grouphug:
Nothing new to report in the Rainman household unfortunately. I officially hate my bank. They have left me with ZERO funds all because they didn't do things within the dates they said. Think I'll be having a little (long) rant in my DFW diary in a minute.
