  • Have blocked the ex. It is a bit confusing but I had him on fb - blocked, had him on the dating website, blocked and deactivated ID.


    However I didn't know he knew I had an old original id, so when he messaged there and was lovely again, I kept chatting. However it is not doing anything for me I am not happy, I do not feel safe and do feel entirely churned up by his presence.


    SO I sent him a rude message ensuring that I offended him enough to make sure he won't get back in touch.


    deactivated my account, blocked and hid him from my new id and also joined Guardian soulmates. Not paid anything yet tho. Seems expensive when I am paying out for so much at the moment.


    checked the bank accounts all ticking along but Tescos card has crept up and I have lost control there slightly.


    vet - 88 for dogs and gps for one visit, so mum pays 34, 56 for the dog second visit mum pays 28


    so that is about 60 quid off the bill.
    82 for me.
    so can pay the vets out of the dog fund.


    however the bill is 395!


    it is mostly clothes, night out, paying for diss to be printed, plus I did shopping and petrol on it. hmmm.


    that is going to stuff the lowering of the overall debt. still the bill is about 253..minus the vet stuff which isn't so bad.


    shall think some more.

  • Could not sleep last night, main due to be so knackered earlier in the day that I napped for most of the afternoon!


    So today things have been a bit slow. cleaned out two of the fish tanks, had breakfast. Need to get dressed and buy leaving gifts.


    still got an upset tummy. yuck! think it might be the heat. One of the dogs doesn't feel too well either.


    got to make a list of people to buy for.

    Bufster, have you tried tinder? It's mostly people looking for a shag but there must be one or two diamonds in the rough on there!

    If it's any consolation I have to work today :(

    Something I was told about joining paid dating sites (and admittedly I haven't tried it to see if it's true), is that if you do the free sign-up, you often then get offers from them for discounted 'premium' membership. Might be worth hanging on and seeing whether GS do that before paying full price.

    So annoyed with my Mum, in the heat wave, she wanted to shut the door last night in case it got warped by the rain.


    it is a pvc plastic


    so no
    that won't happen.

    and now she has chucked out a load of chocolate biscuits. Cos they had melted and she didn't think I'd want to eat them

    they were in the fridge. She put them in there. It just doesn't make sense.


    And yes I know the answer. but I am allowed to sodding rant. am sick of it.


    am tired and severely lacking in patience.


    And I know this is tiny teeny stuff and not important but other things have happened and it has all built up and the anxiety of living here is just too much today so for once I share.

    yeah, they have 3 month for 2 month deal on but it is still sixty quid and the shower is on the blink. I might try and find the money (you know under a tree) but equally I might wait for a couple of months lose weight etc ;) and you know have a grand unveil.


    Things to look forward to


    1. 3 nights in Center Parcs
    2. 40 th birthday party in Bath
    3. End of term.

    Oh bufster keep going!!! Thighs will improve. Know what you mean re rants though - I've just worked for 5 hours (and don't get overtime or bonuses) and found out that a number of other members of staff were !!!!!ing about the fact I left early Thursday to go to a drinks thing whilst they were photocopying. Last time I looked I had "boss" after my name and none of them did. Plus, if they'd like to swap places with me and they do the trial I'm having to prepare for in 3 weeks time I'll more than happily do the photocopying. Drives me insane. One of them recently asked why I deleted her as a friend on fb and don't go for drinks with her anymore. This is the reason because I can't trust her - silly !!!!! has now burnt her bridges with me - no more chances

    I'm speaking to my fellow partners about it on Tuesday (1 away until then) as we need to tackle this because I'm not standing for it anymore

  • How do you know about my thighs Lula ;)


    but yes am sure they will. Today it has go to me because of a combination of heat, tiredness, leaving work, being unwell (that is probably doing more for weight loss IND!) and having loads to do.


    Lulabelle crikey people will moan wont they? perhaps they are jealous? how did you find out? It doesn't sound like a nice place to work but maybe in your job? I don't know is that possible? It all sounds very pressured.


    Thought any more about leaving?
