    Hi Diz,

    Well the e-bay didn't go as well as I'd have hoped yesterday. Just one sale for £27.50. I know I should be grateful but I want everything to go :)

    Not feeling particularly good today. Had a little cry last night cos I was feeling really down and am now quite tearful. I hope nobody's going to give me a hard time in work or I'll be blubbering. I'm just so fed with my life at the moment it doesn't seem to be going anywhere. I'm completely stuck in a rut and my head is in the shed with regards to men!!!!!

    Am off now to get ready for work, hopefully things will be clearer for me soon.

    Have updated my sig to include the sale from yesterday and have had a few small sales today and got some more items ending this evening so anything I've made today I'll update later.

    Still not feeling my best, really down, blinking PMT got a lot to answer for! Still feeling really tearful but only cried once in work when my friend asked me what was the matter. Could sum it up in one word - MEN!!!

    Sorry to hear you have been caught by th dreaded PMT GR. Take it easy half a drink and a nicve hot bath and then eatch some silly girly telly. Men are alot more hassle than they are worth at times. Part of me thinks we should do without and rent them when needed. For DIY and car stuff of course.

    Ooh GR have a big hug from me. Sorry to hear you're feeling down. But look at what you've been achieving, maybe you need a little time out from that now and just pamper yourself a little.
    Really hope you feel a little brighter soon hun.

    Thanks girls, it just all this men stuff is getting me down at the moment. I'm desperate to see bf but at the moment it's just not possible and it's getting me down. I need a big hug!!!!

    It was DSs birthday on Saturday and so many of my family were late with their cards for him (I mean a few days late) that it really p'd me off. Whenever there's a birthday in the family, I always run around like a fool to make sure everyone has their cards on the day of their birthday or before but when it comes to my kids I get a phone call saying I'll bring his card and pressie down when I'm passing. It really got to me this year because I could see that DS was disappointed. I'm in a real b1tch mood now and have got the attitude of s0d them all they'll wait for their cards and pressies from now on. Of course the PMT doesn't help it makes me more vicious!!!!! By the weekend I'll be right as rain again.

    As for giving up on the moneysaving for a while, at the moment it's keeping my mind off other things so I'm loathe to stop for a while in case it sinks me back into depression. I've weaned myself off the anti d's over the last month and have only got 2 more tablets to take so I'm trying to keep my spirits up and stop thinking about depressive things iyswim.

    Hi hun...well done with those anti-ds. That's a heck of an achievement in such a short space of time. Try not to let it get to you re: DS birthday. It just accentuates how thoughtful you are when your relatives birthdays arise. I'm sure they do appreciate you.
    Anyway as long as your children do, and you know they do don't you, that's all that matters.
    Have a lovely Wednesday hun. Let's hope the sun shines.

    Hi Diz, I'm still up even though I'm absolutely shattered. Me and boyfriend has split up. I was really down yesterday and I needed him to be there for me and he wasn't. This isn't the first time it's happened but I think it's been so stressful having a long distant relationship that I've finally realised that he prefers the pub and parting to wanting a relationship.

    Don't know whether I done the right thing but phoned the ex last night who was prepared to drive up and make sure I was OK but I insisted that I'd be alright. However, he's just phoned me now and he could tell that I was not alright so he's on is way up now to check on me.

    I think him coming back on the scene has confused my feelings. My head is totally shot to pieces at the moment.

    Thanks Diz, I'm glad to say I'm not feeling too bad. I'm better than I thought I'd be. I'm just going to see how things go. Ive pm'd you.

    Look at your May total. You hit the £50 mark, well done girl. Am going to have a massive sort out tonight as I've got lots of stuff here that I bought for the ex which I haven't given to him yet. I see more e-bay sales coming on.....
