    Great that you've got an appointment but not great that its not unti Tues but at least not too long & you have tabs to tide you over meanwhile..Am sorry that things are so tough at the moment but at least you have a lovely crop day to look forward to & the cj will be winging its way to you later! How are the children getting on? All over coughs, colds etc? Hope family stuff has settled down....Have a good day :)

    Hi all

    Thanks yet again for the support. :) I had a bit o a wobble last night - full paranoia attack at the rehearsal for a fashion show Sophia was in, but managed to get through it and had a really nice time. Also saw Sophia's bessie mates mum as well and that was lovely too. Hopefully can become friends.

    OH's family let me down again...I really should stop expecting anything at all - OH wanted to come to see sophia in the show, but William would have been a nightmare as it started at 7.30pm. Despite them all being adults with no kids to watch, non of his family were able to pop round for an hour to watch him. They all had 'plans' (involved sitting watching tv from what I can gather).I just don't get it . I've go out of my way to enable things to happen for them and not so that they'd do the same necessarily for me, just that that's what you do for friends and family, isn't it? Ah enough energy wasted on them for now. Cannot being wasting any more of my emotions on them!! OH doesn't see my point, so am slightly worried I'm just being over the top as ususal.


    Done surveys today (although gave up on a few as just so tedious!!) Sorting through toys today but doubt I'll sell many - will just take them to the charity shop as need things to be more organised here!!

    Got the next CJ - these are all so wonderful! I am really enjoying it. :) Will be thinking hard for my inspirational quote s- at the moment I can think of some many it would fill a whole CJ and then some! :)

    Lol!! I think taking a step back (like you all suggested ages ago!!) is helping :)

    Just found out that b-i-l is thinking of buying a house here (in poulton!) LOL. Should be interesting if he ever manages to not spend so much money! I don't think it'll have any impact on us, as obviously he won't be round here and doesn't give one about anyone but himself. Just funny how things have changed- just 6 months ago he was slating everyone round here as narrow minded and all his old mates were sad and pathetic....guess who his new best friends are?!!

    OH just came back from Wilkos with some fabby cheap roman blinds for the sitting room - about time we had some curatins/blinds up - it has been over 18 months with none! :) We're doing ok with budgeting really - spending a bit much on certain things, but obviously not debting so all good :)

    Feeling much more positive that this time last week! Not hard, but actually feel like I have some control again..just a bit mind!!:D

    Sorting all the toys still - think this might be a long activity!

    Hope all are well and happy :)
