    Hi guys!:santa2:
    Good afternoon all - morning sazzy!biggrin.gifwink.gif
    Forgive my slowness in replying peeps - still trying to sort out Vocational College application and auditions and Uni applications for the troll that I have lodging upstairs. I don't see the troll much - he's buried in the toxic dump of a bedroom, attached by an IV drip to a games console and also praying to the great ipod god. His room is like a dumping site and he would rather buy new clothes than wash what he's got! He comes down to feed but then magically disappears again immediately afterwards. He doesn't pay any rent either!rolleyes.gif Yes guys, 'tis 17 year old DS to whom I am referring.sSc_scarednervous.gif
    I will find a way to get my own back on him somehow!sSig_Muahaha.gif

    Oh the power! biggrin.gif Embarrassing him in front of his friends, if I can get to Stratford again, is going to be soooooo hard to resist.biggrin.gif I'm full of tales about Power Rangers and the story of his pet rock - which replaced the poor pet stick after its sad demise!laughing-smiley-014.gif
    ...blink.gif... hmmm.gif...OMG - I just thought - this could cost the NHS a fortune in therapy for him in years to come!_pale_
    Did your parents ever do anything to embarrass you, guys?

    Sorry to hear that so many of us have been feeling poorly with colds and flu etc. Big get well soon hugs to katie, ilgd, bmf and steph - please try and remember not to mistake the cat fur as a tissue again, guys.speechless-smiley-040.gifredface.gif Feel better soon guys.sLo_grouphug.gif
    steph - You sound really poorly, hunnie. Don't suffer any longer sweetie - get an emergency appt today with your dr/out of hours dr, or better still if you can, ask for a home visit because you sound far too poorly to go out.

    Right - got to go and rouse DS from his pit!:silenced:
    Some days I don't think there's enough medication in the world for me. sSig_no2.gifwink.gif
    I'm thinking of you all. Stay warm and take of those basic necessities - lots to drink, ok? Look after yourselves guys - safe journeys.sLo_hug2.gif
    Much Love,
    Tiff xxx

    My BIL has managed a couple of short journeys with the aid of a mobility scooter, but they left him very tired. :( Have to say that I've been offering up extra-special prayers of thanks, for the folk who continue to work while the rest of us get to slob out:o
    BMFx
    I'm really glad your bil managed to get out angel - I've been keeping you and yours, (apart from that waggy thing!), in my thoughts. I know what a hard time you guys must be having, sweetheart. You're a real inspiration.sLo_hug2.gif
    You make a good point hun. I think we should all be truly grateful that we live in a country where medical help is easily available and God bless all those nurses and docs for all they do!action-smiley-033.gifangel-smiley-002.gif

    AnyHoo----:xmassmilewas definately on the right track when he gave us a Tiff for Christmas all those years ago:p Makes you wonder why the dinosaurs left her alone tho:rotfl: :rotfl:
    Bless you - lol!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Hey! It was only 43 years ago - ''all those years ago'', indeed!bored.gif
    Dinosaurs? No, no, sweetie, you got it wrong. It wasn't a case of them leaving me alone. It was quite the opposite...


    Have you never heard of the Sabre-Toothed Tiff?!rofl1.gif

    And 'waggy things' are next on the list!tongue.gif

    Hi Bailey..I think there may be a charitable site that could give you some info on daylight light bulbs & SAD, ...& I daresay Tiff will be able to point you in the right direction once she's back from chasing the mice in the cellar:eek:

    I've been a bit wibbly :undecidedeven tho I've been taking my meds....but I've been a bit frugal with the liquids so perhaps I'm a little dehydrated. Have noticed lately too, that I get wibbly if I bend down to get something from a shelf etc...bit scary when I have to drive home :shocked: BMFx
    I hope you'll go and see the dr angel, just to double-check that everything's ok. Pretty please? It might be something to do with your ears, if it's affecting your balance.
    Look after yourself hunnie - I hope you feel better. Keeping you in my thoughts bmf - in a good way, that is!wink.gifsLo_hug2.gif

    :hello: Everyone,

    I had a good day today :) went home to my parents for lunch,played dslite for a bit after lunch,then we all went to take my brother to the train station,we saw him off,then we went along to Sainsburys to do a shop where I got a lot of stuff mostly of Buy 1 get one free which was good :) I looked at computer games but the brain training one was too expensive there so came out not getting it,Dad and I had a misunderstanding while in Sainsburys but we have made up now and are mates again but it had left me crying and I cried a bit when I got indoors while putting away my shopping,put on heating,had tea,then had a bath :) I came on here then for a look around and finally I ordered the brain training game from play.com.I have two new games to look forward to :)

    Anyway I must go as Eastenders is on soon and I want to watch it :)

    chat tomorrow :)

    Night! Night!


    love and light,

    Katie xxx

    hi everyone, sorry to hear that your still feeling ill steph, hope you are having plenty to drink, having flu can make you really dehydrated.
    hope you enjoy the brain training game as much as i do katie, i think its ace, i've got a brain age of 33 and i'm 37.
    still feeling down, cant get over my ex, dosent help when he keeps ringing and telling me he loves me. i didnt help either by asking him here yesterday to do a couple diy jobs. miss being part of a couple, having somebody to do things with, somebody to go places with etc. somebody told me today that all relationships are hard work, am asking myself now am i expecting too much?
    big hugs

  • Sorry you've had another bad day Steph, hope you sleep better tonight and feel a bit brighter tomorrow.

    Shaz, I can totally understand you calling your ex, but in a way you are torturing yourself by seeing him and talking to him. IF you think you have made the right decision in finishing the relationship, it will only hurt you more if you have contact and you will never be able to 'move on' if you do this. I don't mean to sound harsh, but totally breaking contact is really the only way to help yourself xx

    trying to be strong and stop crying over him, i know he isnt worth it. he rang me tonight we had a polite chat about the kids, then asked if i wanted some company, stupidly feelin lonely said yeah, and he replies, i'll bring some spare clothes and stay over for old times sake, should have said no outright, but i'm so lonely and miss his company. anyway i add if you sleeping over its on sofa, to which he replies, whats point if we not gonna have s*x. told him we'd have to sort our problems first, and see how it goes. i was so ready to give him another chance, but he went into a rage, because i didnt want to sleep with him, told me no wonder my kids are mental with me as a parent. told me i'd never find anyone as good as him to take me on. crying my eyes out, feel so hurt, so used, and so stupid, you gave me advice and i did listen but didnt respond to it.
    i am so stupid i deserve all i get, sorry for long post. dont feel like living any more really i dont. i think my kids be better off with out me in the long run. only this afternoon daniel has had a major tantrum, and said he hated me and called me a f***ing b**ch
    had enough
    sorry
    enjoy life, we only get one chance at it:)
  • Shaz, do u want to chat on messenger or do u want me to PM you? I'm worried about you xx

    dont worry bout me hun, you have given me a lot of good advice, and i have not responded to it its my own stupid fault, i deserve it
    sorry again
    enjoy life, we only get one chance at it:)
  • Please don't put yourself down Shaz..you're not stupid, you're just hurting. And I think you WERE strong for not agreeing to sleep with him. I am so sorry he responded like that. It is him that doesn't deserve YOU, not the other way around. He is very insensitive about your kids, you are doing a great job. All kids say hurtful things sometimes, it just feels extra bad because you're hurting anyway. xx

    ...and I am a worry wart, so no good telling me not to!
