Girls of teenage years can be so cruel

I had two best girl friends tell me to choose between my bf and them, when I chose him they made me feel terrible - for the whole of my senior year I had no female friends at school, they turned everyone against me jokes on them though as BF is now my DH

Hi,

Not sure if this is the right thread for this, but here goes...

In Wilko today, Kilner bottle's were in the sale at £1.35 - I bought 2 to make flavoured vodka for xmas prezzies. Also there was quite a lot of kids art and craft kits less than half price - ideal for school hols or putting away as stocking fillers.

Oh yes, it's the right thread for this. Great bargain.
Welcome to the mad house.

This happened to me with my best friend when I first met my ex bf and my very best friend!! I was with him for 6 years though!! Caitlyn he was a bit of a pain and my whole family are happy we have split so he can't have been that nice haha

Well what a difference a day makes.
The dress is finished :j My friends daughter came round and gave dd a fake tan. Which has turned out very well. Her nails have been done and she is smiling
She has just to her best friends for the night. Her bf mum is going to do a trial run on her hair, as she will be doing it tomorrow.
Dd is getting ready there as I do not finish work until 5.30 tomorrow.

Ds was the only one on his course today to get 100% in the health and safety exam.
He doesn't have to go in tomorrow as some of the equipment they need hasn't arrived yet. And he doesn't have to be in until 9.30 on Monday because his tutor lives in Scotland :eek: and flies down every week. ( we are in the south east). I think he is looking forward to the lie in tomorrow. As am I . :rotfl:

KAYANDY sorry to hear about your break up, keep your chin up my lovely and fab news about the job
CAITLYN haha im glad im not the only one, i try and be ladylike but it just doesnt come naturally i am a klutz :rotfl:That jewellery box is lovely, and the girls will adore it
MSGIGGLEWICK bless your DD, what a shame she is missing it, the other mum is being very nasty stopping their friendship. I love the reindeer advent calendar how cute?
FEISTY well at least you made the right choice
ZIPPYBUNGLE thankyou for the link i have been looking for bottles for flavoured vodka
OMO glad DD is happier today, she will have a wonderful time, yayy for DS, he is doing so well, you must be so chuffed with him, hope he has a well earned rest tomorrow

Caitlyn those jewellery boxes are so beautiful. Times must have changed since I was young, £12 is a lot more than the generally accepted budget for me and my cousins!

Msgigglewick thank you for that link, I've kept it open ready to have a good look through when I have a bit more time! Makes a change from looking at dining room furniture. After years of saving for a house, I'm finding it quite painful spending the money on filling it!

Have a wonderful flight Nana!

msgigglewick

oh zippybungle.. hope they still have some on tuesday, shall grab a couple if they do. Want to make some toffee vodka and one other but can't remember what that was right now lol

Omo bet shes so excited! ... i agree with you all girls can be cruel.. dd1 spent the evening looking at everyones pretty dresses on fb and there was only 1 she actually said she liked lol. Shes gone off to enrol at college this morning, which she was more looking forward too than that night out, in the rain in a field in the sticks lol.

Have a great holiday nana!
