Ooooh, HBS! How long do your lovely pendants take you to make and do you ever do requests? It is my american friends birthday at the end of June and she is obsessed with Game of Thrones! A pendant would be the perfect gift!
I am just about awake, still very drugged from the access anti-psychotics yesterday. We need to make everything spick and span again because the insurance people are revisiting the flat either Thursday or Friday to check their requests have been carried out. Coffee first!
Ps. Happy Ed Balls Day! that isn't political at all, it is a day celebrated on Twitter. The first time Ed Balls ever posted on Twitter he tried to search his own name (as most famous people would do) and instead of pressing search he pressed send. Hence his first tweet is him searching his own name and everyone guessed what he was doing. Now every year Twitter celebrates Ed Balls day. Ed joined in this year by putting up a photo of his friends and family holding up Ed Balls signs with the 'Balls' highlighted. He takes it well!Until one has loved an animal a part of one's soul remains unawakened - Anatole France

Somebody take my debit card off me please?
It's Swain's birthday in a few weeks and i *may* have gone a bit craxy buying presents
I can't help..i love buying people presents. Its the look of joy you see on their face when they open them that makes me feel happy. He'd said he;d be happy with just a few small things but i bought him a few extra.
He's been so lovely to meI;ve lost count of the tmes he;s done stuff for me and i;ve told him "you;re being too/so good to me" this confuses him as for him this is normal. I guess with exes i haven't always been treated so well, and so when he does stuff its always extra nice for me as others have never been so thoughtful. I guess really it is normal, but bad experiences have made me feel its not if that makes sense? I think i'm still struggling to understand why a)anyone is so nice to me and b)what the hell i did to deserve it!

Had a good day until now.
Now in a real mess due to something that has been triggered by something else. And I can't do anything until working hours resume.
I am shivering because of it. And can't even go for a drive because of lack of fuel and money to fill up the car.

Thanks. Just knowing that people are here is enough.
I will confess what I did and hope that are no repercussions. It was not intentionally done. But thats no excuse. Should have thought it through better.
Got my dressing gown on and the extra duvet from the back bedroom as I just feel so cold.

It could be very serious. I temp and it was my first and last day. As I found it very stressful. And knew that I would make myself ill worrying about the job if I stayed.xXMessedUpXx wrote: »

In regards to the job, ehats done is done, you can't change it now, so lets just hop everything is ok tomorrow, tomorrow is a new day.
I need to get me some fluffy socks! My feet are rather cold atm! I have a terrible track record with socks. I'm starting to think there is a black hole in my room where all the socks dissapear into!
If its any consolation nobody (apart from the bf's parents, dont have the heart to correct them) call my by my birth name, i always use my nickname. To the point it's now weird when someone does use my actual nameI don;t mind saying what is is, my actual name is Rebecca but i've gone by Beki since i was about 6/7. Rebecca is a nice name but i don;t feel i;ve grown into it yet!

hopefully. I would rather confess at least I got if off my chest. Been a week since I have been there. So they might think its rather strange confessing. But need to pick up my timesheet!xXMessedUpXx wrote: »

When I had a full time permanent job. I went on holiday and told them when I came back I wanted to be know as Calley. I had been there for nearly 6 yrs. I think it shocked them all.
But I was trying to move on after all the carppy things had happened. And wanted a fresh start.
Just feel some days there is no way out. And I just feel that I really don't have that much to moan about as I have been lucky. And maybe some of my problems have been self inflicted. Like falling for the wrong person and letting them keep coming back. When they seem to have bigger mental health issues than me!!!
