ooh I'm here tiffy :hello:

things are ok with me.. same old same old really
how bout you? how was the holiday, did you have a lovely time and did you manage ok?

xxxxxxx

Hey lady!:hello:
Good to hear from you angel. :j
Yes I must tell my holiday tales.:eek:
I'll start off with 63 year old Ken who was in the main lounge when I booked in there and who took a real shine to me!
As you might have imagined I can confirm that I was the youngest one there - they'd got trees older than me!
He was only there for a week though and on the day he left he hugged me tightly and tried to fasten his limpet lips to mine - oh thank you Lord for giving us the other cheek to turn!:D I saw him targetting and turned my head just in time - I swear I saw his tongue!!!:eek: :eek: :eek:.
He said ''It's only been a week, but I've got a real soft spot for you darling. I've taken a real shine to you.''

He was a really nice old chap and had been very ill, was virtually deaf (no wonder he liked me!:rotfl: ) and was going into hospital for a double heart bypass and he's also the carer for his wife who has got Alzheimer's and has had cancer too. Lot of guts in that guy bless him and he had a brilliant sense of humour too.:T
That's it for now - I won't give all the excitement away all at once!:rolleyes: And piccies will be posted - don't say I didn't warn you ethel!!!:D
Good to hear from you angel - catch you later.
Much Love,

Well for the second day running i cant seem to stop crying.Got so many different probs dont know where to turn,just want to crawl into bed and stay there forever. Found out today my son hasnt got through his first year at uni and may have to do whole year again and he owes thousands from his first year! Going to start taking my anti=deps tomoro - decided whatever the side effects are i cant feel any worse than i already do. Just have to get through the next few weeks until they start working.

imported_goldie, Would it help if you were to post your problems here ane we can try to help you work through them?

I am sorry to hear about your son. How is he coping with the prospect of having to repeat the year?

When did you stop taking your anti-depressants? Did the Doctor advise you to stop taking them?

Tiff, :eek: I knew there would be a man involved :rotfl: Awww bless him, he sounds like a nice guy. Sounds like you had a good time I can't wait to see the pics.

hi all,
hope you are all doing better today? am feeling brighter today, think its cos the suns out and things always seem better,for me anyway.must have that sad thing....but all year round.:D
rbk....your ex sounds such a nice person (not!)really know what to say to hurt, dont they?would say take no notice but it still hurts.last week i had to walk by some school kids at the shop and they shouted "baldy!"" after me (have fine hair and you can see throu my hair at the back sometimes...which as you can imagine, inspires me with confidence, but i digress!!)......i didnt give em the sat of looking back or commenting but still felt cr*p for the rest of the day.strange how a small thing like that, that you could normally laugh off, can send your world crashing down!out of the mouths of babes and all that!:eek:
so enough of the venting.still wondering about what to do bout my life ,re the lb moment the other day.you always think its greener on the other side until you go there and realise its the same or worse and that you should have stayed where you were cos you cant get back what you lost. think thats me at the moment.....too scared to move forward but too set in my ways where i am.will ponder further and hope the answer comes to me with divine intervention.

tiff....the med was for incap ben and completely went to pieces...which i dont know if was good or bad at the time.felt sorry for the dr as he prob saw me at my best or worse , depending how you look at it...and after 15 mins, sent me home.looked at me as if he thought "that womans not fit to be let out in public!!"
i know it sounds as if im making light of the whole thing but my coping mechanism is humour and always know somethings wrong when it deserts me, so hope you understand if im over jolly sometimes in my posts.im either really happy or very low with no inbetween.

enough boring essay....take care everyone.sending hugs and positive thoughts to you all. :A
kind regards, ilgd xx

My Darkest Day's

When morning time approaches
The sky's just turning blue
Its black that's all around me
With eyes that I see through

There never seems to be a way
Of knowing what time's right
Right now you see my days are
Just as dark as all my nights

No rising sun, singing birds
All gone is morning glory
No sun to set and end the day
Its black so blacks the story

I'm alone I feel unhappy
There's no smile upon my face
I have to hide to feel secure
But black is one big place

I know there's people out there
Just waiting biding time
The one's who want to hurt me
And break this heart of mine

A victim out of innocence
It's them that have hurt me
They've taken everything I had
And stood for cant you see

So now I hide I need to be
So free from everyone
I stay in my black bubble
Until my darkest days are gone

The bubble, my security
Is a box room very small
It stores my information
That no-one can see at all

I hide away both day and night
No noise or lights put on
I sit, I rock from side to side
Until my thoughts have gone

Then one day it just hit me
As I felt a sudden pang
I realised I was going to die
And then alarm bells rang

With my heart double beating
And my breathing very poor
I knew I had to take the step
to open my box-room door

Daylight shone I couldn't see
I fell down to both knees
I crawled along the carpet
Calling help me someone please

I lay there broken hearted
I was feeling at my worst
I felt a warm sensation rise
And then the bubble burst

I see the sun I hear the birds
Come back has morning glory
I see the blueness of the sky
I'm back, that was my story...

I'll leave you on a final note
A note used frequently...
ITS TRUE IM BETTER THAN NOBODY
AND THERE'
S NO-ONE BETTER THAN ME.

ilovegreatdanes, It's horrible isn't it when ppl you don't even know insult you. It can completely ruin your day as you just seem to hang on to the words that they say and really start to feel bad about yourself. Some ppl can be so nasty :mad:

How are you feeling? I hope you've had a good day. (((HUGS))) to you xxx
