other than that, not much to report.. in fact, nothing at all, lol

hope everyone's ok.. bigg huggggggggggs.. xxxx

Hi ethel!:wave:
How are you angel? You have such a hectic life hun that I'm surprised the headache isn't there all the time. You're an inspiration hun - I don't know where you get all this strength from!:T
For once, I'm glad to be able to say that it seems all is quiet on the Western Front for you ethel! I hope you enjoy the next two days and get some rest hun.;)
Rest?- I didn't go to bed until way past 11pm and up I got at 3.10am.:rolleyes: :rotfl:
Thinking of you hun.
Much Love,

We could never forget you rosie. How are you angel?

Tiff huni, it doent matter whether you made it today , i look at how farr you have came and continue to do so. you are like me you push yourself to the limits hun, well rosie is back and telling you to STOP.
This is true, you're right hun. I know I'm not going to be feeling too great physically over the next few days so I'm trying not to make plans for jobs etc. They'll just have to wait.:o

and see you are still doing it you went out and achieved something you couldnt do earlier in the day, that is great, you should be proud of yourself not putting yaself down, ok?!!! listen to rosie hun, im always right
I remember that too!:D I'll try and do proud one day, I promise.:D
ok to everyone else saz, etel, gillette, blinky, pumpkin, ccstar, geminilady, elona, and well all of you and the newbies, welcome.

im afraid i have had a tough time, 2 friends have died i have gone down hill, meds have gone up, and lots of other stuff, will have to check in sometime next week and give you all a rosie essay lol
Oh rose, I'm so sorry to hear about your friends hun. You're still on the road to recovery hun, so it doesn't matter if the meds go up for a while if they help you now.;) You always manage to get back up hun.:T
Will look forward to the rose essay.;) Hope everything else is well with you rosie.
Much Love,

Big huggzzzzzz everyone.

Hi stenny!:wave:
What are you up to hun?! I know you've been busy doing the "Homes and Gardens" thing and have got ethel and saz lined up for their house makeovers. But I've been thinking angel. I'd be very grateful for your talents and as ethel and saz live down south, it makes much more sense to stop and do Tiff Towers here in Warwickshire on the way down!:D
Hope you're well stenny hun and that you're getting some hugs. Wrap up warm angel.;)
Much Love,
Tiff xxx

Maybe it's the hurt, but i've been like it all my life since my partner passed away - no confidence.

More cheese? I'll try not to burn it next time

Hi miro!:wave:
Saz is right angel (hate to admit it!:D ) it'll take time. No-one expects you to go out on the prowl now hun. You have to concentrate on feeling better about yourself angel, on getting better for your own sake. Even though you say you feel 70, (I know a foxy 69 tear old miro! Hey, Mum...), time and developing your confidence and self-esteem will refresh your energy hun.;)
Nah Saz - don't believe it hun - he burned that cheese deliberately!:D
Have a good day hun.
Much Love,

Good morning guys!:wave:
Typical - not a flake anywhere yet!:rolleyes:
Sorry if I'm repeating myself everyone.

sazzy - thanks for your kindness hun. Watch out saz, rose has found her wellies!:D You hold on tight to that hat fund.;)

ethel - try and put your feet up today hun. Thank you for your thoughts ethel.

blinky - I hope all went well with meeting r's mum angel. C'mon blinky, I need a catnap now - it's your shift! Wishing you a very happy weekend hun.

cc - I'm sorry to hear you had such a day of highs and lows. Wishing you luck with the sale - hopefully, they'll be in touch soon.

To the whole family, be kind to yourselves guys and each other.;) If you're hurting or feeling low, try and find some consolation in the fact that it could be worse - you could have my life!:eek: Trust me, catflaps ain't no fun!:rotfl:
Thinking of you all. Huge Tiffy hugs for all those in need.:A
Much Love,

Morning everyone - ((((Huge hugs)))) to those that need/want them.

I'm up bright and early as DH woke me up at 6am as I had promised him faithfully that I would do some baking today. I had promised him baking for the past two days and didn't get it done, afraid I never got out of bed much before 3am the past couple of days.

Well I set the ball rolling with my Dr when I went to see him last week, the councelling is now underway, just waiting for the first appointment.

Not sure what today is going to bring, but I intend to be a bit more awake than I have been.

Oooh and its snowing outside, and we have a lovely layering of snow which makes me feel all gooey inside

Morning guys, tonight had a strange end feeling to it at ASDA, maybe a sign that a new job is on the horizon? Wasnt that bad a shift, im struggling at the minute with a cold etc, bit of a disaster, as a result my asthma is playing up a bit and I feel really lethargic.

In other news, no work till Monday night, Waterloo Road is on tonight (hurrah), out with ex work mates tomorrow, manchester train to teach thing tomorrow, selling car today!.

I have another month on the ad's after this one, so it will be 7th april before i have a review, which is good, hopefully i get into my day job wherever it may be and crack on with getting debt down. University awaits as does teaching.

Recovery is important, and its ongoing, but i can start to now look at the bigger picture. Once ive sold the car, i will lose freedom but gain so much cash and not have to stress about debt, the money in my account will be mine, getting rid of all manner of overdrafts too.

Off to bed, very tired, maybe I have bird flu :rotfl: :eek:

I don't think I will find anyone. Too much baggage, not exactly Brad Pitt, no money, no nothing, and I feel old. Only 30, but feel 70 and feel like time is running out.

Yes, you will it just feels like you won't at the moment.

Not exactly Brad Pitt either, too short and too fat for a start
Most people over 30 will have some baggage.
Time is not running out - I'm only 34

Rose - Great to hear from you. :j I have been thinking of you but wasn't sure if you were away somewhere.

CCStar - selling houses is stressful. I think the Scottish system of sealed bids is easier on the vendor than that used in the rest of the UK.

Tiff - Hope you have a great day. You do a sterling job in her :T

LTD - Agree with the others, probably best to post or arrange for ex to pick up stuff when you are not in.

Stenny, McClaren, Queensway Boy, Ethel, Carolyn et al. Hope you have a great day.

Sorry I wasn't around yesterday. Had a very busy day at work and I was out last night with 'R'. The meeting with her mum went fine she's a lovely person, which I expected given the nature of 'R'.

Huge hugs to all.

Hi all

I haven't been around for a few days - I've been having a few bad days. I'm seeing the Mental Health nurse this afternoon which is SO stressfull. She's lovely but in a way that makes it worse!:eek:

Anyway big hugs to all of you

Miro you sound like a lovely person... I suspect that when you least expect it love will pop into your life and bowl you over!

I want to thank you all for being such wonderful supportive friends - I don't want to list names in case I forget someone and that would be so awful:o

In panic!

Last nite had a big row with g/f.
I just can't ever get my point across to women. Venus/mars thing I guess. She told me something about her past which isn't that bad IMO. But the way I had to trip over it to find out is what worries me. My last relationship was full of lies - my ex was too afraid to lose me, so would never confess to anything. But that means I never really know if I know everything and you then lose respect for them and it's a slippery slope from there.

Last night was horrible as I tried not to fall into all my learned behaviour from the time with my ex. Trying to explain and not hurt her. But just ending up having a worse and worse row.

I tried to explain last night that I am strong enough to take anything apart from not being told stuff. But the lesson she just seems to have learnt from last night is it is better NOT to have told me - the total opposite of what I was saying!! I don't want to prolong the row but I feel if I don't correct this, I will end up having the same problems I had with my ex. It all felt so horribly familiar last night.

Gilly - It might not a deliberate attempt to hide stuff from you. Many of us have some form of baggage and it can be difficult to find the right time to talk about this stuff with a new partner / lover or even a friend.

For instance, months ago I did ask the question when is the right time to talk about your mental health issues.

All couples row / argue /disagree - it's all part of a relationship. It how you deal with these that is important.
