    Claire: the hairdresser said 5 days as im having backcombing done

    She apparantly has powder that dries up the grease

    So much stress

    Yesterday the uni called about deferring my start date got that ignored so sept it is; benefits want my student finance letter i dont know when i will get that .
    The doc is having to write three letters
    Tattoo the 4th
    Feeling v down about everything n dont think i will last at uni but i want to try
    N now the car keeps loosing power

    Why do i have to fight for everything

    Atton - ((hugs)) sorry you are feeling down and like you have to fight for everything - but as you said above, you want to try! That is the best possible thing you can do - have a positive attitude and try your best at whatever you want out of life, and you will have done everything you can :) I'm sure you will make a big success of the uni course and I hope it will give you lots more confidence in yourself!

    afternoon ladybugs
    as my weight's plateauing i thought i'd give my weightloss a boost by trying this 5:2 (intermittent fasting) diet a go and i'm on a fasting day today and i'm starving! how i thought i'd feel i duno lol
    although DH says my bum's slimmer, so maybe i'm just toning for now lol

    smear was fine, although lady told me off for coming in the wrong part of my cycle when i had no idea there was a right part :o
    she also said 'your cervix is like a penis' and i giggled. mature, me.

    went to hobby craft on the way home from work. i should not be allowed in there by myself! i bought a big pack of embroidery thread, a box to keep it in, bobbins and a bobbin winder. can never spend less than twenty quid in that place no matter how hard you try

    personally i think they should have two kinds of pregnancy tests- ones for ladies trying with comforting words for BFNs like hotcaffienedrinks lover suggested, and one for when you're not trying that says 'thank gawd for that, now be more careful next time you numpty' (i think we've all taken that particular kind a few times as well lol)
    they should say it on the packet as well. i always feel embarassed buying pregnancy tests because i always worry everyone in the shop thinks i'm single and and reckless. i feel like wearing a sign saying 'i am married and want a family' :rotfl:

    TeamLowe - why is your cervix like a penis?! I would have giggled too, definitely! Glad the smear was ok.

    I know what you mean about buying pregnancy tests. I try to always order them online to avoid the fear of being seen by somebody I know. It's ridiculous, we are all grown adults, it's not like we are buying illegal drugs on street corners, we're buying pregnancy tests in pharmacies!!

    I think there is a very good product in the making here - a team of us could get together and go on dragon's den!

    Maybe these tests could also dispense chololate or wine as required too?

    TeamLowe, I'd have giggled too. I remember when I first came off the pill I was being fitted for a diaphragm and the nurse had her entire hand up my foof trying to find my cervix and I started giggling and trapped her hand!

    I always feel like a naughty schoolgirl when buying pg tests, even now that I'm a "grown up". I always try to make sure they see my wedding ring and I'm sure I go bright red. I used to lurk on here ages ago and I'm sure I read a story about someone buying a test in a supermarket and the checkout operator making a comment and it stayed with me.

    Once you'd wee'd on it!! :eek:

    I am loving these ideas ladies. I am also loving checking to see what my name is today - you are definitely brightening up a particularly bad day at work :D.

    Are cevixs (cervii??) supposed to be like a penis then?? Who knew?! :eek::rotfl:.
