    If you mean your post on the thread about C4's Despatches programme (benefits), you're ok.
    You've had 6 thanks, and no quotes. So no-one has reacted to it.,

    Too much wine at a charity night and now sat watching Escapette snoring on the monitor. I've given up trying to sleep, bearded one has me at the doctors next week as I won't let me sleep

    I'm currently sulking :(

    There's no way i can commit and afford the one dayer thing i want to go to in may, i have no idea if im possibly gonna lose dla and thus tax credits and i could end up pretty much on the breadline by next month, and tickets are very close to selling out so i might as well just give up on it.

    My birthday is 6 months away and already i dont want to celebrate it. I dont want any presents (theres nothing i need or want) i dont want to go to the same club ive been to for the past 10 years (which i will end up leaving by 12am anyway). And Swain and i wont be going on holiday as he'll be at work by then. All i wanted was to do one thing i'd enjoy that i'd have good memories from and i can't do that.

    MEH. If anyone wants me i'll be sulking and feeling sorry for myself in the blanket fort.;

    Another low day today, again no idea why. Yesterday was sunny, today was rainy so it can't be down to the weather, wall to wall sunshine yesterday.

    Maybe it's my upcoming birthday next weekend which is making me subconsciously feel bleugh although things like that don't usually worry me (age is just a number - I wasn't one of those who got all depressed about turning 30...or 40 and I am positively looking forward to 50 as I plan to have a blooming great party with live bands)

    Maybe it's just the exhaustion from taking middle son back to uni last weekend bringing the mood levels down..I'll go with that for now and try to get more sleep/rest.
    We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.
    Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.

    **opens wooden hatch flap to blanky fort basement where she has been hiding and sticks head out** meltdown going on here too - is it me or are we having the c7apiest week?


    a point I thought was interesting from hubby (before I stopped talking to him!).............
    When he says "I'm hungry" - he means just that.........and if he wanders out to kitchen - an apple or bowl of yoghurt is the same as crisps or chocolate to him. I explained to him that when I say "I'm hungry" it means I want a particular food like bread, kebab or chips and suggestions of "there is yoghurt in the fridge" seem ridiculous to me.
    Is that a male vs female thing?


    I have also noticed that, without fail, if I am sat watching that damned TV with him - I will want to eat more after dinner. If I am reading a book, doing something, anything other than sitting in front of the stupid box - I don't feel hungry.....anyone else noticed this?


    squishes to all.


    (and I am in the queue to chat to mellys former employer - jumping up and down with a sledgehammer in my hand - that's about my mood this week - might go pop over and see Faeries landlord and then nip back over to mellys to have a chat with the neighbours.......anyone else I should call in on? **sighs** yes, I know..........totally on the rampage, hence I have been locked in bedroom for last 36 hours to avoid actually committing harry karry on this most annoying world! Although, actually it is probably a positive step that for once I am not blaming myself for everything. I've have had enough and am blaming the rest of the world for continually shi&&ting on me and the golden lights and I feel like setting a few things right for once...... Imagine a female hulk, obviously wearing my golden lights cape, storming out of the blanky fort with a nerf gun and a gitdog sat on my head.........)
