    Got my APG back - it worked on cheese purchased this evening so 90p each :beer:. Found these packs in former Netto little store.

    Also had my first large womble - £10+ voucher, so a good day all round.

    Also does not anyone suspect that the cheese "glitch" is no such thing - people are reporting even the SELs are saying £1, MySM shows it as £1 and Martin promoted it in his newsletter ... if it looks like a fish and smells fishy, it is cheese :). Ts could correct this at any moment but people are reporting them putting out more stock - they don't tend to give something away unless some form of cunning promotion (disguised as a glitch, go viral, bring people in who will buy other things). Now As get hammered through no fault of their own - they have it on offer at £5!

    hi all.

    have been at work all day. come back to see my cyber friends and there's more upset.

    And by the way, not into facebook cos people try to talk to you and people that you haven't spoke to since school will be trying to talk to you:rotfl:

    Anyway, enough of the misery. Now for some good news....

    i have been told today that i can move into my little flat... it's been ages waiting for the paperwork etc and now finally we're good to go.

    For the newer peeps, i have been saving for the flippin deposit for ages... and this is our first ever flat. We've been putting up with a tiny room for 6 years just so we can get the deposit. it's like a dream..

    Amazing.... am going to be a homeowner:T[/QUOTE

    Thats great news, wishing you much happiness in your new home. You must be so excited.
    Wonderful news for you, I wish you every happiness in your new home. It's the best feeling in the world when you get your first home. Six years of hard work well done :T

    Evening guys :D

    I have been very down since getting back home and need to get motivated to do some work in the house. I picked the dogs up from the kennels on Monday and took them straight to the groomers. They both looked lovely when I picked them up later, with their coats trimmed right back, and smelled lovely, much nicer than they did wwhen I got them from the kennels :eek:

    Problem is, after 32 days in the kennels, they have both been weeing in the house :eek: I let them in the garden several times a day, and shout at them if I see them doing it, then put them in the garden, and Molly is getting cleaner, but it is the older dog Bes who is the main problem. And when Bess wees, it is a flood :o. She used to whine and scratch at the back door if she wanted out, but is just weeing by the back door now more often than not :o It wwwould be ok if I could leave the back door open for them, but it is too cold for that, and it is tipping it down with rain right now

    Anyway, I was jusst coming off the phone after a lovely chat to Kit & Steve on Monday night, when Bess walked out of the kitchen after having a drink, and wee'd in hall between kitchen and sitting room. I sshouted to tell her off and put her into the garden with the door closed while I mopped it up and disinfected the floor. After a while I let her back in, got myself a bottle of fruit cider, poured myself a glass, and settled down to come online. Both dogs tried to jump on my knee together and I pushed them away, and Molly happened to knock over the glass and bottle all over the table and floor ............. and I went into meltdown. I was shouting at the dogs then shouting that 'I can't cope with all this', and crying my eyes out. I eventually mopped up the floor with towels and then put them in to wash. I felt so depressed and alone :o When I settled again, I gave the dogs cuddles each as the poor things didn't know what was going on and were just watching me

    Problem is, this is what I used to be like before I went on antidepresssants a few years ago, breaking down in tears at the lightest thing, and I am now on quite strong AD's which have got me through the past few months very well up till now. In fact, at times, I felt that they were 'helping' me too much, cutting out my feelings a bit too much

    The other thing troubling me is that, despite catching that last mouse, there are signs of others still here. I have so much stuff lying about, it is hard to clear it all when I just don't have the motivation, but having the piles of clutter is what is demotivating me also. Catch 22 situation, and it is all getting on top of me. I was really good when I was away, in good company, but not so good now :(

    I HAVE to declutter and that means throwing loads of stuff out. Stuff that I may want in the future, but just haven't got space for now. I will have to be rethless :(

    hugs :o
    Being ruthless is not easy. One day at a time. Easy for me to say I suppose but you have done so well.:)

    I worked out from their clue today that the grab time would be 1.50 ( 300 boxes, 2 pteradactyl do the maths was the clue. ) Phone rang at 1.47 and I missed a box by 2 minutes. Seems to have 'nest unguarded' once a day and lunchtimeish, but look out for next clue! Previous day's clue was what do pteradactyls eat and the answer was cranberries, so no logic some days!
    I am not young enough to know everything.

    3Dogs. You will get through this. Just take it hour by hour. I know easier said than done.
    You are probably the strongest person I know( sort of ). I wish I had half your strength. You are aloud to scream and rant after what has happened.:A

    You know 3dogs it is a horrible old time of the year too- wet and cold can add to the dreariness. You have done so well you know but do see the doc again if all gets too much......if only for a chat. Px

    I dont have any words, but I hope a (((hug))) will help a little
    I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it. :)

    Sorry you are feeling so down 3dogs. I wish I could say something to help. I understand what you are saying about Bess. My old cat Beefy wees a gallon, and has taken to doing it by the kitchen bin so it runs underneath as well. We have tried putting a litter tray in but he prefers the floor :eek:. I do sometimes get a bit tetchy with him but he looks at me with his 'old' eyes and I melt. As regards the clutter, well just a little at a time honey. You know what they say "If you have't used it for six months, you don't actually need it". I am a bit of a hoarder myself, so I chuck little bits out at a time. Anyway, I do hope you feel better tomorrow. I think you are from my neck of the woods. Beautiful countryside, wonderful skies.
