Hi just to say thanks for posting...I empathise with you about getting sent letters...I'm getting sent letters to different story but I too feel like "they" don't understand... I'll health can't be helped and a letter isn't the best help...they could be more understanding... My niece is off school a lot its a chronic cond. Hospitals etc etc & she can't help bring I'll but she will receive the same letters & same tick box rule...its a system but not very human of caring.
Don't beat yourself up...well done for sharing your situation here...you have helped me a bit.

Raining...raining!! - it's blooming SNOW here, !!!!!!, I was sitting out sunning myself a couple of days ago and dealing with a wasp that had decided to build a nest under my flat roof - shouldnt have bothered the weather would have killed it :rotfl: :rotfl:

Typical Scottish weather - 4 seasons in one day! I was planning a trip out today but decided against that when the snow came on!

If it helps, we've had hail stones

Ellie - I'd offer anyone lunch if they did some chores for me

I have not stopped all day and still have my ironing to do. Anyone offering to help.....? .....that'll be a no then :rotfl:

LB, if you've already got your ironing board out, I'll just send mine over to you...:rotfl:

Got the idea niggling in my head that I should have my hair cut really short, which would be a big change for me...can't quite decide if I should...just fed up of it looking a mess when it blows about in the wind at work. I suppose if I hate it it'll soon grow again

I've made the fatal mistake of sitting down...no chance of ironing or anything else being done tonight. Got nowt to wear for work tomorrow now .

On the haircut front, speaking as someone who tried a short cut years ago and HATED it, absolutely HATED it, I would advise shortening it gradually....

Hmm, the last couple of times I've been to the hairdressers I've said to her I want it shorter (well obviously, having a hair cut, but you know what I mean!) but she only does it a little bit shorter, probably because I've been havering between short and long enough to tie up. she also knows I haven't got the patience to style it in the mornings, which is the main thing putting me off.
I just really feel like a change.

The ex (the one who didn't like cats, so we know what we think about him ) had a major thing about me having long hair, he didn't like it when I went for haircuts. There may be a small bit of "creating a new me" involved here, I think.

Part of the new me is starting a diet *again* tomorrow

I was growing my hair, once in order to have it cut...:p I wanted a particular style, a razor cut and the hairdresser promised it could be done...I took a pic in and everything. It was a disaster, and I went to another hairdresser who, on a weekly basis, cut it shorter and shorter in an attempt to improve it...which was also a disaster...:o

My ex also preferred long hair on me, but I thought s#d that, when he grew a beard which I hated.

I'm no help am I Ellie...:rotfl:

Maybe go for it, you can always buy a wig :cool::D
