    Thanks Wendy, the day's not improved at all. I feel so down yet don't know why. I burst into tears this morning at my mums and my cousin's just phoned me and I've cried to her. I just can't seem to cope with anything at the moment without bursting into tears.
  • Awww I wish I could help more. It will pass soon enough just take care, lots of food and drink treats (not a time to think about dieting). Have a bath, face pack etc.

    You can cope just sometimes things can get on top of you and you need to let the feelings/frustration out.

    Your right Wendy. Its the dreaded PMS makes things seem ten times worse. I tend to over-analyse conversations as well and then I get upset when I interpret them incorrectly and somebody has said something to me I've over-analysed what they said and now I'm sad. People have told me I'm being silly but it's not helping me at all. I'vegot it into my head and I just can't see past it.

    Had words with my boss this morning. I've been off work all week and don't start until 10. Went in today and the boss said to me I meant to ask you to come in early today for a meeting. Why do they think you can just drop everything and come in early. I'm in a really picky mood!!!!!
  • It is the hormones on overdrive so just try not to think about anything except essentails and then only on a good enough basis. I am always overanalysisng things as well.

    What a daft thing your boss said. What can you do after the fact and theres a reason you start at 10!!

    OMG what on earth possessed me to hit the vodka last night?????

    Feeling a lot better this morning although the head is a bit heavy. J turned up last night with a TV for me, it's a spare one he's got and he doesn't want it back. It's not a widescreen but it is so much better than the portable one we have been watching. So that is one problem out of the way.

    It's my last day in work today (told you I was having a short ween, have done 2 days!!!!) off tomorrow to take my uncle to the hospital for some day surgery. Have decided to take DD with me and maybe we can find somewhere to spend the day before piccking uncle up.

    Have got up this morning to an Amazon sale. Have sold a book for £22 :) so that's put a little smile on my face. Maybe this means that things are looking up for me and my mood with lighten......

    Have been neglecting my diary again. Had a really busy day yesterday, had to took uncle for his day surgery, was up at 5.45 to be at the hospital by 8. If was a long drive but I got there on time. Didn't pick him up until 4 pm so spent the whole day just mooching around in a place I didn't know :( Saying that al was well so that's the main thing.

    Cooked J a meal last night and he didn't leave until 3 am so practically fell into bed shattered. Have got eye tests this morning for me and the kids so another early start,

    Have been invited out for the day tomorrow with J (down to his mums) and am really looking forward to it. Things seem to be moving slowly but comfortably with us. As I'm out all day tomorrow have got to get all the cleaning done today :( Have made my usual list.

    Clean bathroom - done
    Clean kitchen - done
    Clean dining room - done
    Cleam living room
    Hoover my bedroom
    Post e-bay sale (which appear to have picked up)
    Eye tests - done
    Shopping (only need a few items) - done
    Washing
    Ironing (have got stacks ) - done
    List some more items on e-bay -done

    Bearing in mind I am absolutely shattered so it's going to be amazing if I get even half of these jobs done!!!!!

    Will pop back and for during the day and let you know how I'm doing.

    Hi guys. Had a busy couple of days and have had little time to update here. Went out for the day yesterday with J and enjoyed a lovely lunch at his mums. Things are really great with us at the moment and I'm hoping they are going to continue.

    Have updated my July total and even though it's not as good as last month, I'm certainly on target for meeting the monthly total. E-bay jas picked up slightly over the last few days and I've listed some PS2 games on AMazon which seem to be selling well.

    Not got very much more to report part from the fact that I'm still feeling slightly sluggish with regards to moneysaving, i just seem to be doing the bare minimum at the moment :(

    You might be doing the bare minimum on the money saving front but at least you sound a lot happier than you did a couple of weeks ago. It's all about that balance.... :o
