    I am going to make a real effort to find a new doctor. Mine have told me they are down to stress and needed to change my job.


    I think they are hormone related as I get them or a very bad headache at the start of my period and then at the end. Admittedly if I am stressed they turn into full scale migraines with free vomiting and eye sight issues.


    So am on the case. Also regarding work. need to sort that too. tho this place is much better when I am not having a hissy fit created by my own mind.


    two minutes left till my dinner is ready. yum.


    SO happy to have tomorrow off!

    Hello all,


    I did chill out. Was meant to go to pets at home to buy hutches. But decided not to.


    Just cleaned out the piggies, hamster, went to Sainsbury's had a nap. did some housework tonight, ate dinner a bit late.


    FINALLY made a decision about the rabbits. I am going to buy a hutch from Pets at home. It is a foot short of the recommended living space but I am going to be brave and let them have 24hr access to the run.......so there is adequate space. Hate that. Would like them to have more.


    Actually just wish they could be house rabbits they are SO lovely.


    need to feed them and get ready for tomorrow. XX

    I am in a mood since my sister has said a couple more things that have ruffled my feathers.


    In fact it has really upset and I am feeling very insecure.


    I am also feeling strangely like I want a boyfriend. no clue were that came from. and a house but I always want a house.


    I am feeling so unsettled. like I don't belong.


    anyhow dogs need to go out and I need to get on with stuff.

    thanks Beanie.


    SO. I spoke to a friend re consulting a solicitor about what would happen to the house if the worst happened and how I stand now re my sister/BF and the house.


    I CANNOT keep having life happen to me. I need to start something. Have a proper plan beyond getting out of debt and having savings.


    so we will seek legal advice, and go back to the bank to ask about a mortgage now I have a permanent job.


    It isn't a nice feeling, that your family are so dismissive of you. And frankly kinda scheming.


    still I am a grown woman and I can sort this.

    I think that it is appalling of your sister to be making assumptions about your Mother's house! You are right, seek advice but I would assume nothing after all your Mum may need the money from her house herself in the future. Now you are in a permanent role hopefully you can move towards getting your own place, which will be hugely enjoyable.

    Oh Buffy your sister really is feeling threatened by you living there isn't she. Like Toot says your mum may well need the equity from her house to pay for her care so your sister really shouldn't be clawing at the door waiting for her share :mad:.


    It would just be amazing if you could get a small mortgage agreed, even if its for a flat but to feel back in control of your life would positively impact lots of areas. Your peace of mind, your ability to meet menfolk :rotfl:and a big fat up yours to your sister :T.


    Will keep my fingers crossed for you, Go take back control!!!


    MASSIVE HUGS xxxx
