Here we can all be heard for a little while. Part 3

I love my make up now. I must admit a lot of my stuff is from the pound shops or from amazon. I use vouchers I earn from surveys to buy it.

I started to use micellar water to remove my makeup. But when the bottle ran out. I bought some micro fiber clothes from the pound shop. And use that now to remove my makeup. You get 4 for a £1. And its better on your pocket as well as environment as no cotton wool to throw away or buy or bottles of stuff either so quids in all round :j

Anyway the one who wanted to meet today never rang and I have deleted his number. So that saved me having to get out of that one.

Did have a call from a number I don't know this evening. Even checked my call logs and not on there for the last few days. So who knows. Not ringing or texting to find out.

Left husband at 6pm as he wanted to watch F1 would prefer to watch paint dry LOL!!!

Been for a walk and shattered now. Might go to bed early due to lack of sleep last night.

Hope everyone is well.

Take care

yours

Awww, that is a lovely offer, whitewing! Let's aim for that for the future. I promise you I don't look odd in any way (I think!), or at least people don't run from me! It is just so hurtful to be judged on something I have no control over, I can't make make it go away.

I am going to quote Shakespeare because it sums up how I feel about my myself right now-

"If you pr1ck us, do we not bleed? If you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you poison us, do we not die?"

I have mental health problems but I am just the same as everyone else. They aren't the sum of me and it hurts so much when people seem not to see that. Hate and/or run from me for being me for all means, but not just because I am unwell. That just isn't fair and I am helpless to try to counteract it.

I had something similar when the boys were young, friends who I had known for years stopped returning my calls or wouldn't answer the door once they knew about the boys and their disabilities. My social life went from quite full on to absolutely nothing, it was so isolating.

It was one of the reasons I went back to work in the evening, just so that I could get some adult contact despite really it not being the best thing for me to do (I was already running at an energy and time deficit) and it ultimately had a huge part in what led to my breakdown, I got so exhausted that my brain and body broke.

I was lazy last night and went to bed in my make up. I don't usually, but I was tired and the boiler is playing up again, so I'd have had to take a kettle of hot water up, which I forgot to do, and I wasn't washing my face in freezing cold water! :eek:

I use Clarins foaming cleanser, which seems expensive at about £14, but it lasts for months, on in the case of this one, well over a year! I sometimes use Micellar water instead of or afterwards too.

Quiet on here today. Hope everyone is ok?

Evening all! Everyone watch Wreck It Ralph, It is a wonderful film! I have cheered up slightly by being able to distract myself with films, that isn't something I can usually do. Most are children's animated films but nevermind that, they are fun!

Rightly or wrongly I sent a final email to friend apologising if I have upset her and asking that if I did could she please tell me why? I told her I won't contact her again but it hurts to be suddenly cut off and that the last thing I wanted to do was offend her in any way. It is the last email I will send to her if she doesn't reply. At least then I know I have done all I can to try to understand.

Tonight I shall be watching Paranorman!

I think you've done the right thing WaS.

Of course she's obviously got her reasons why she's done what's she's done, but I feel it would only be polite for her to explain why. It's not fair to leave you in limbo like that, and so I hope she replies and at least gives you a rough explanation as to why she just suddenly stopped all contact.

Hi, Georgie, congrats to your Mum!




I had to wear this foul eyeshadow with glittery bits in for AmDram and found that my usual eye makeup remover pads plus soap and water didn't work.
Then I found that two-layered Nivea stuff that you have to shake well before applying. It really worked. Got the glittery stuff off in one, and worked well on the waterproof mascara too. And when separated the two layers match my bathroom!

I've just had a horrible thought.......... There's always the possibility that she might have fallen ill and been unable to reply.

Thanks Pyx, she was chuffed she got through it and even said a little bit at the end, so was proud of her too!

Nothing like a colour co-ordinated product that looks good on your bathroom shelf! It's good stuff that Nivea eye makeup remover.

Eta: yes, of course, there could be that possibility (fallen ill), never thought of that either.

Glad you had a good time Georgie and the synchronicity of the winning photo being of that location is fantastic.

Foxy is in charge, OH has a special chair in the kitchen with lumber support, caught him standing whilst madam slept on his chair......

WaS, I'm going to suggest that your ' friend' really isn't much of a friend in the first place. None of this is anything to do with you, though you're such a nice person you don't want to think badly of anyone. Some people are just jerks.

I have been guilty of compartmentalising my friends because I worry that they'll like each other better and not be friends with me, or they'll fall out and I'll end up in the awkward position where they don't want to hang out with me anymore because I won't take sides, or they sleep together and don't want to talk to me anymore because they have no further use for me. All these things have happened in the past which is why I don't have many friends left really.

Someone make me get off the Lindy Bop site. They have the dress I wanted last year and I'm thinking of buying it for a wedding in November - if I buy it in a smaller size it might be an incentive.

I am too scared to sleep. I am so ashamed. I snore like a combine harvester. I went to the doctor about it a while ago and they sent me to ENT who established I didn't have sleep apnoea and told me to lose weight and ignored me when I told them I still snored when my BMI was 21. They referred me to someone to build a mouthguard but I'm still on the waiting list. It's always worse in Spring/Summer cause of hayfever. Anyway the other night, the neighbours banged on the wall, I assume because I was snoring loudly and this morning Mr CP said I was snoring louder than I ever have and I have no idea what to do. I've tried all the sprays and all the otc products and I can't do anything about it but I hate the fact it's impacting on other people and i'm so embarrassed.
