    I think age is irrelevant! It's a number not a definition of who you are, and one of the few things in life you cannot change however much you want to

    As for success and/or failure - everybody defines that in a different way but ultimately it's how you define it for yourself that counts. None of us have failed, but if you want more then go for it! You are awesome!
    Sometimes it's hard to walk in a single woman's shoes - that's why we need really special ones!

    I LOVE my friends on the internet!


    you are all too kind and it was totally my hormones. my monthly visitor arrived this afternoon during the exam I was overseeing Agonising pain for about 15 minutes (doc booked in half term). Plus I have come home and stuffed my face with chocolate. Always a sign. so am not a fat over the hill old failure. just feeling a bit sensitive and give in to yesterday probably as a friend of mine has a got a bf and well clearly my talents lay with animals and kids not men!


    I walked the dogs, put piggies in the run and now must mark *YAWNS*


    My ISA application wasn't a dream they e mailed today.


    catch you all later. Big Love XXXX




    And Snaggles, am sure we are the same age? XXX

    Glad to hear that you have had a good evening. Friends are so important and I neglect mine at times. Last 2 weeks I have caught up with 3 that I haven't seen in ages. I found that I have been spending less and eating less funny enough, wonder if it's linked at all?


    I totally didn't see this message! You see my friends and I go out and eat.....so that's not true for me. :)

    The blessed relief of a Friday night after what can only be described as a strange week.


    After having thought so much about the ex recently it was strange that he has got in touch. I did message him without thinking about a few weeks, literally saw something he would like and messaged him a link. He sent back a nice sort of closure message and I felt a bit sad but it was ok.


    Then he messaged again. He said some nice stuff and that he wanted me back in his life in some capacity. I am shocked still by this.


    Anyhow have spent much of the week avoiding/waiting for him to message/chatting to him. It has been odd. Very good, as you know I have missed him greatly. I was very happy for a while:) but then my overthinking kicked in!


    So I decided tonight to archive the message on FB and see what he does next. I would love to see him again but am really not clear on how we would work out how to see each other between his kids and my mum! plus the fact that I am working on Saturdays now too.


    Too much for my little brain. Need to let the dogs out

    thanks Beanie XXXX


    have the most horrible tummy ache. Think it was my lunch - made it quite early this week and it may have gone off by now.


    ugh.




    feel dreadful.


    debt wise, 101 on Tescos card, 4183 on the Barclay card.


    Only spent on petrol and shopping and did buy a meditation download from Amazon for 1.29.


    am off to drink peppermint tea and not die.
