Evening all
Did pop my head in when I got back Friday but highly confusing so left to catch up with the tv I had missed.
From what I can make out you have had 2 weeks of turkey mince and pizza meal deals. Can't buy any food until after Thursday.
Just read back last 10 pages so feel sort of caught up.
Snap great news your dad is coming home.
Little T I can see you are not worried about a couple of pounds on and congratulations for keeping a true account.
Many things to say to a few people but will pm instead.
I have a pure angel coming over tomorrow to help we sort wardrobe contents, throw away high heeled shoes and sort and pack my stash. I do not know what I would do without N I really don't.
Feeling overwhelmed with in pending house move. Feeling a bit lost if truth be told but I have good friends. R is coming Wednesday to oversee Thursdays removals as he know I do not want mum stressing over it and I will need practical help.
Big bottle of expensive pink bubbles ready to open Thursday night then the following week dd is coming to unpack me.
I was feeling alone but not lonely but I now feel one of the luckiest people to have such a support network.
Glitch needed on wall mounted toilet brush holders please. Even better if matching bits and bobs.
Love to all

Can I ask people's opinions please.
Does anyone remember me saying that a friend contacted me by text while I was living with my mum to go out for their birthday. And I had to decline the invitation as mum was so poorly I couldn't leave her for a whole evening the amount of respite from social services was limited and to be honest at that point a night out was the last thing on my mind my mum was dying.
I'm pretty sure I declined by phone not text but I am not 100% and explained how ill my mum was anyway, I text said friend on her birthday that year to wish her Happy Birthday and no reply in fact I hear nothing more. It saddened me to think there was nothing to ask how my mum was etc. Obviously losing mum was a difficult time and I was hurting so I left it. My friends birthday had only been a few days before my mum passed away.
Before Christmas this year so over 2 1/2 years on my girls all had friends requests on FB from this friend. My settings are tighter I didn't get one. None of them accepted as she was my friend not theirs. I just thought she was trying to be nosey.:o
I did however just a few weeks ago come across a message sent few months ago in the hidden message folder I had no notification and had only clicked on it by accident. It said she often thought about me and could we meet up for coffee. Now I can be a bit stubborn and I have done nothing about it yet, I am still bit upset if I am honest there was no support for me when I needed her.
I had always been there for this friend in her times of trouble, she had my mobile no, home no, she knows where I live. I don't understand why she reached out through FB. And she certainly did not message the girls to say she was trying to contact me just a friend request. We do also have mutual friends (I don't mean FB ones I mean RL ones)
Anyway today my DD is working for a catering company at a wedding, guess who's? Yes my friends. :eek: She has told her she wanted to invite us and that's why she had tried to friend them and she had messaged me. I am now feeling rather guilty.
Just wondered what others thought please? She has asked for my home no which I have said is fine, but she did already have it. I haven't moved. Mr TS said if she really wanted us there she knew where we lived, she never had problem dropping in previously.....
Was going to reply to this, but since read that you have had great advice and acted on it. She may have felt embarrassed in getting in touch, but if she is not the sort of person you need in your life at the moment, then dont, its your life, do as you wish, we spend too much time trying to make others happy. We are a long time dead.“Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?”
