    Morning Crimson Addict hun....

    Yep, you're right about that Book....I have that one and the Sequel and they are both very good....

    I thought my Cold was going but I still feel dreadful this morning....Just wish it would !!!! off!!!! Pardon my language!!

    Managed to go out and do a bit of Food Shopping....but had to drag myself around....That's partly why I need to lose Weight...

    Haven't got the energy to Write much in here at the moment....Just trying to stay awake is hard enough!!

    Morning Hun.... :)

    I didn't Work last night....decided that I needed the sleep more than I needed to Work....and I managed to get quite a good Night's sleep which is unusual for me....

    Today I'd like to work a little but I have to Call the Police about my Netbook as they are going to get it back to me soon - Maybe today!! And have to phone a few other people....so I might or might not Work during the day but will be starting Work tonight at 8pm regardless for the Night Shift....

    Gotta go Shopping this morning....Food Shopping...as I don't have much in the way of Food at the moment....And go to the Bank and stuff like that....

    So that's me....

    Sounds pretty much like my day... Dont you just hate phonecalls you know you have to make and really dont want to make them? I had been putting off calling Virgin for ages and then finally picked the phone up on Friday after 2 weeks of putting it off.

    Then off to the bank too....

  • Think I might have caught your cold :eek: thought it was hayfever but got a sore throat today :( Hardly surprising as was stuck on a bus with a person next to me sniffing and sneezing, got to love public transport!

    I'm studying English, got a year left, not sure if I want to go down the teaching route or something to do with writing i.e copywriting....as you say it's making the decision and knowing there's a possibility of failing that's scary. Have loved it though as had health problems when I was young so missed out on higher education.

    You've definitely inspired me to look into self-defence classes, been meaning to do this for ages as the estate I live on is classed as "dodgy" :o;) Hopefully it'll make you feel a bit more secure.

    Hi Everyone....

    Well I finally broke down and went to the Doctor's....I don't mind a Cold if it goes in a few days...but this one has been nearly a Week and has brought the horrible sinus-headaches with it....and I just couldn't take anymore....

    So the Doctor was very nice....I told her about the Rape because I said that I know some of this is about Stress and my Body's way of telling me to slow down and process it....But she agreed that something had to be done....and that this Cold/Flu thing had gone on long enough...

    So she gave me some Doxycycline...which is an Antibiotic...And I'm hoping that will work....and that it will start to help me almost immediately!! Is that hoping for too much???

    So I'm still feeling pretty rubbish and de-motivated right now....I barely have any money although that is only because I went shopping this morning and spent most of it on Food for this Week....

    I'm exhausted....fed up....feeling down.....and just generally feeling crappy....

    Thank You Everyone....

    The Headache seems to have gone for now....so I think that the Antibiotics have helped....but I am still sniffling like mad and coughing like I'm on 40 cigarettes a day (which I'm NOT by the way LoL)....

    Still feeling really really down....I think everything is finally starting to hit me.....and I just feel really down about everything....

    I know that I need to move on...and I will do....but right now that all just feels too damn hard....

    On the plus side - At least my taste-buds have come back....I hate not being able to taste my Food!!

    Debating whether to go to College tonight...I don't think it's a good idea to travel across London in my condition...but I'll see how I feel a little later on....

    Morning....

    Feeling a bit better this morning....I think I'm slowly getting there....

    Managed to sort out my Budget yesterday so I have a more achieveable Plan over the rest of May....so that makes me feel a little better....and more Positive...

    Didn't go to College last night....I was still having headaches and coughing and sniffing....so I didn't think it was a good idea....so basically I slept from 3pm until 1am....Which was a good old sleep!! Kept dreaming about Cupcakes though....now I'm craving one...or two....or three!! LoL :rotfl:

    So, feeling a bit more Positive this morning which is good....Going to start Work at 9am this morning....and do at least 4 hours....and then I might have a loooooong hot Shower and wash my hair....and then do the Washing Up...and then we'll see what I want to do....

    Glad to be feeling more Positive....I WILL get there!! :T :T :T
