    I loved your kitten pics! Just didn't have time to post! My mum rang and asked me to go back round her house. I plucked up the courage and went and most of the funeral group had left so it wasn't too bad. Don't know why she has to insist I do things like this though. Think she thinks it will make me better.

    I then took my 2 Pugs for a walk and tripped up a kerb, cutting my knee. Felt like a little girl again. Really silly because it made me feel stupid and like I wanted to cry! What a day!

    Hi to everyone,
    I love the kitten pics!! Animals are so fabulous and dont care if you are depressed or acting like a crazy person(as long as you dont hurt them of course!) and give you unconditional love(in my experience).
    Was at work today and then shopped(as usual). Bought a fab jacket/coat reduced from £140 to £19.99 (not that I need it-30 coats/jackets at last count) off of the money I had in my bag to pay the electric bill, so it did not get paid. I hope I will manage to do it tomorrow. No I will do it tomorrow!!!!!! Also need to say I dont feel guilty but I should.
    My daughter was saying some strange things to me last night- she said I was acting weird, like I was avoiding something! I get upset when she says stuff even although I know she means well. She usually tells me when I start to get hyper saying "calm down" and "I hate it when you get high!" She says there is a different look in my eyes and I exude energy. She knows I cant help it but the fact she is so much more aware now she is older hurts.
    Back to the female/male doc thing! I though my psychiatrist was going to be a male due to the name but it is one of those boy/girl names! She is OK but I feel uncomfortable in her presence, she stares at my hands and feet/legs as I speak to see if I am fidgeting or moving and I am sooooo aware of her doing it.
    K.
    Money is only of any use if you can spend it!:cool:

    Gawd, what a day:rolleyes: Not in the office today as was given the day off again so I worked at home. Was awake before the alarm at 6.30am but didn't shift myself until 8.00am:eek: Did 2 days' worth of washing up and then remembered that I didn't have anything to eat last night - still not feeling hungry. At 11am I visited my postbox and found one piece of junk mail and a book that I had ordered for work from Amazon - I found the rest of my post on the side by the front door - blasted postman they would have fitted in my lockable postbox:mad: Now my neighbours know that I have had letters from the DWP and my bank as well as the Inland Revenue:mad: :mad:

    Did some research for work this morning and made a phone call about yearly public liability insurance. Made a cheese sandwich for lunch and sat on the sofa to watch the news - next I knew it was 2.30pm:eek: I had fallen asleep. Missed a call from one of my work colleagues, called back and he was with another colleague and they were visiting an ex-colleague (seems there could be a bit of romance going on between one colleague and the ex-colleague - looks like I put my foot in it:rolleyes:

    Used my £5 Amazon voucher and bought another book for work (for me this time) plus an autobiography and a DVD - at least I'll get some pigs back. Had my last strawberry & white choc crisp from Lidl so now I have to go back clutching £1.89 to buy some more (you get 6 in a box in the freezer section).:j

    Am supposed to be looking for insurance but would rather chat on here - my work is never going to get done. Hey ho, I am due back in the office tomorrow. Hope when I start working 9-5 that I can get through the day without having a nap - I must be getting old as I need a daily nap (might be in the evening when I get home or in the afternoon).

    Hope all is well and sorry for rambling....

    Aw huni - just think if you manage to go through with it though. What an achievement!! You will be so proud of yourself!!! :)

    I hope you do cope well and I will be thinking of you all day! :)

    I am having a bad start to my day already - oh when wil it end?? - Fiance tried to get me to go back to bed for an hour because I'm tired but I resisted because I think if I go back to bed today I won't get up. :o
    I went to work and it wasn't at all bad. Thankyou for thinking of me though it means a lot.

    I saw all the horrible posts and I don't think you look bad at all-the people were just being nasty, and the fact they deleted their posts just proves it.

    Hope your day got better.

    Xx

    What a lovely kitten-I love cats I have 3 and a soppy dog too. They do make you feel better don't they?

    Hi, by the way! Welcome to the thread and I'm sure we'll speak soon.
