    Thats how I feel, its soooo :mad:!!!! I cannot wait to get finished.

    My Gran is away getting her checkup (had hysterectomy due to cancer 3 years ago and missed my wedding because of it), so fingers crossed everything is ok. She's been having 6 monthly checkups.

    I feel in a fog today and its not nice, I feel quite prickly (mood) as well if that makes sense :(. OH was moving about a lot last night and moaned that I swore at him, well I swore at him because I'd already asked him to move and watch where he was flayling his arms about to when i got one in the face. We apologised to each other. But everything seems to be getting to me, even the slightest little thing. ....came home on saturday and there was a copy of the Hobbit (book) and 2 large pillar candles on the coffee table from SS.........my first thought "what's he broken"?.......is that bad?


    No reply about the other jobs I applied for. Is it too much to ask to have something settled with reasonable pay? Ideally it would be lovely to have my own little craft shop, but unfortunately I don't see that happening any time soon. Also getting a little broody but don't know if i've left it too late.

  • Oh gosh! You've a lot going on at the minute in that head of yours!!

    It's soooo easy to let things get to you. Been there done that! :o

    I know you've been on my diary, but did you see my post from 1st November? Ummmm... this one. The 90/10 quote is a very good one - and one I really need to remember! One 'bad' reaction can set off a whole train of other 'bad' things.
    Mentally decide you're not going to let stuff get to you. That plus mentally 'putting on my happy face' every day, does actually work, and has helped me loads!!

    Don't get me wrong: there are still times when I can be a blubbering mess (Saturday night! :p), but that's now the exception not the rule!

    Mind if I ask what age you are? :o

    Well I sent a text about the money. No reply yet. I did as previously agreed yet its me that being made to feel the baddie. Its faster payments between our two accounts so it shouldn't take that long to send.

    Glad to be home, but fed up with work. The person I mentioned before is turning out as I thought to be a complete bully. Not the only one in the place.

    Morning All, my friend sent the money back. Worried about her. Also worried about myself, I just seem to attract back-st*bbers at work. Every single job I've had since my mid-20s. I asked my Mum honestly if I had done anything wrong (she can be quite brutal with the truth but I had to ask), she said no, I did very well in the first job where it happened. Got various awards etc, and then in my last 2 years there it was hell (I ended up being the only female) and was bullied constantly. The job after that was b*tching and bullying, the job after that was ok, till redundancies were announced and the person I thought would be there for me stabbed me in the back to save her own skin. And now its coming from 2 people. Fed up and angry.

    Had brekkie, off to check bank account, back later. Hope everyone's well.

  • Morning :)

    Sorry to hear you have a lot going on. I know what what you mean about the work situation, but it still shocks me. Why are people so down right mean/b!tchy all the time? Surely its a real effort to maintain a personilty like that?! Im a fan of the easy life, I'd much rather try and get on with everyone and not cause any unneccessary conflict.

    If you find away of switching off all those million and one thoughts going around in your head, let me know! I struggle with it too.

    I still havent even thought about Christmas shopping yet. Eeek!

    Ditto!

    How about you, me and unixgirluk setting up our own wee business together?! :) What could we do?
