I've been cheering you on in gluts of reading your diary.
Wow, you've done well.
I'm sorry you've had a rough few days but so glad that you and your Dad have made up even if its still a bit raw. As you said, he's probably stressed and he perhaps just popped in for a bit of sympathy and a natter and was shocked by what he saw, or thought he saw. Seems to me that Dads always see their daughters as their little girl and it can be a shock to the system to realise that we've grown up (mostly).

Thanks everyone and hi Joeyjimbles
. we have made up but i told him he needs to back off and most my friends are boys and probably terrified to come round esp when he accuses me of doing things other than drink in front of them! never been a thing i been interested in n they terrify me.
saw my grandad and it was frightening i dont think i can personally go back, not in a bad way but i would rather remember him way he was than is the now, he has a matter of days the cancer has took over but will see.
payday today and my wages have not went in! none of the staff has. Hopefully be sorted by this afternoonwill update once they have though its went into unarranged overdraft... slightly mortified when buying my irn bru and man says declined lol.
Soooo would say 28 days until payday again...but lets see if i get this pay sorted :Pxx

Really hope that your wages go in and if you get charges on your bank account then make sure you chase the company for these charges as you won't be the only person in that situation xxNEXT TARGET: Halifax credit card DEC 22 £0 / £4499.12POAMAYC 2011 £6378.35 POAMAYC 2012 £5000.78POAMAYC 2013 £3480.04 POAMAYC 2014 £4085.14POAMAYC 2015 £7565.24 POAMAYC 2016 £8000.90 POAMAYC 2017 £7278.80 POAMAYC 2018 £13208.18POAMAYC 2019 £13309.28 POAMAYC 2020 £15026.050
