Karma, you are barmy. But have made me smile you little star.:D
Sometimes i DEFINATELY need to thkweem!! fantastic therapy that.

Nope reading diaries never good, neither is reading personal MSN conversations, but we shall get there one way or the other and see where this saga ends..... Yes I do want to give it one final shot, more from the fact of loosing such a close friend than loosing the relationship, and i mean that in a nice way.

The nastiness has been on a few threads right here on our lovely DFW board sadly, namely MOT's and Mollybears threads amonst a couple of others. which is what has really made me take a step back, and then a massive step forward when i realised without being here i wouldn't have a) met some wonderful people... b) lowered my debt by quite so much c) "earnt" myself £47 by sitting on the sofa!!!:j

Long live lord lewis!!!:money: :money:

Are you getting on ok with the MBing now? I really must get back into it again, will catch up with your diary soon. xxx

Oh dear, been there on the reading MSN conversations etc (in a previous relationship), not good, but I'm glad you managed to turn it round and have an honest discussion. I hope whatever happens you don't lose that friendship - strangely the guy in that previous relationship is now one of my best friends!

Just off to try and sponsor you - tried yesterday and my card wasn't working, so fingers crossed! xx

Morning all!!!!!

Right, am going to try for this big long juicy update again and if i loose it i will shcweem and sthweem and stamp my foot!!!

Just before clicking send, select all your text (with control-A) and copy it (with control-C), then send it. You can sometimes do this after you've clicked send it your computer is running slow. If it goes off, then just go back and paste all your text that you just copied.

You see before the weekned I was considering backing away from the site and continuing my DFW journey semi-alone, other than those on here i "knew" well. This was due to all the bickering and nastiness going on in quite a few threads.:o DFW has always been such a nice place to have a "chat" with people and that seemed to be turning very sour indeed. :eek: It was leaving a bit of a nasty taste, but i KNOW that if i left and vanished into the ether my motivation would go, i'd start to waste money again and shock horror start giving money to OH again!:eek: :eek: :eek: :rotfl:

Now, now - you should never do that. Sometimes some threads are "a bit much", but it's much better to step back from those, than to step back completely. People who post are a valuable resource (and people like yourself who organise are even more valuable), and it's a shame to lose them. Moozie for one example, LookingAhead, TNG etc, etc...

And besides if everyone of us naffed off when the going got tough then who would ever stick around to help out the newbies...(which is something i really must get back into, have tended to stick with the comfortable places lately for fear of getting rounded on!!!:o )

That's a natural reaction.

For those of you that know how tenuous my relationship with my father has been, the fact that he had this thought and included me in it meant the absolute world to me, such a small thing but such a massive meaning. and dad doesn't do thoughtful things very often at all so that made it all the more special. it could've just been for the nieces or "the family" but it named us each individually and meant more to me than anything ever has. Maybe now we are back on track, and I feel that he loves me and i'm accepted again, and that is the best feeling in the world.

That's lovely, and something that you've waited many years for...

I stayed downstairs and did some microwave rice for him, not knowing he was upstairs reading various items on my laptop..... diary included......:eek: :eek: :eek: Cue massive argument and i ended the night a single woman....:o

Oh dear...

So long chat ont the way home and we have agreed to stick at it for now, we both came up with some very valid points i think and both agreed on various things, so we're going to take it a week at a time and see if things improve...

Well so long as you have an action plan and you both stick to it, then it might work - but you do both have to work at it. It can't go on the way it has been, and if it can't last, then it won't last.

Budgetted £50 for my night out saturday and only spent £20, but then i did get my eyebrows waxed which was £7. completely justifiable though as i looked as if 2 hairy caterpillars had taken up residence on my head!:eek: :rotfl:

That's obviously to attract the women folk. Men never, ever, notice eyebrows. If you do your makeup *just right*, you might attract a glance above the collar bone...

Well done on the debt total, i love to see peoples debts reducing on here.

Dont ever say again you are thinking of leaving, Ive missed all the nasty posts recently. It really did put me back seeing a few nasty posts a couple af weeks ago on one thread. I have no idea why it makes people happy to be nasyt to others in a place of support. dont let them win by leaving.

Lemon_Tree

i really should have sent you the text i meant to send you over the weekend. I'm glad you decided to stay here, you're a good friend and help support so many people. I missed most of the nastiness as i tend to stick to the usual threads. I have been spreading my wings to the OS board and green fingers board recently.
Sorry about OH he was out of order big time, i hope things work out for you but you know where i am if you need to vent.
Glad you're getting on much better with your dad, it's not easy when you don't have a close relationship with a parent, i'm still working on it with one of mine.

And last but not least well done for figuring out why the numbers didnt' add up.

Oh and can you give me hints as mine seem to be much tighter this month than they have for a while so i'm trying to figure out what went wrong.

Hello peeps, Fell asleep ont sofa, woken up tired and grumpy!!!:o I fear an early night is called for!!!:cool:

Looks like i'm in the bad books.... I've washed OH's IPOD :eek: which was in his gym shorts pocket!!!:eek: what on earth it was in there for i have no idea, :rolleyes: Luckily he is taking it well, and considering i smashed his works laptop screen last week by leaning in it somewhat of a miracle:rotfl:. Still, if you're going to leave things in your pockets you have to take the consequences hey

No more money won on the bingo yet, may sit here and list my books in a minute, get them done. Had a really snotty e-mail this morn from a guy who had't received his book i posted nearly 2 weeks ago:eek: sent a "i'm really sorry but i'm not sure what to do maybe you can give me your thoughts" e-mail to receive a grovelly apology 3 hours later, the receptionist at his work had forgotten to tell him it had arrived!:D :rotfl: so I can post anew with no threats of negative feedbck...

Had a night off from the gym tonight but went this morning for my fitness test.. Had my bmi measured, exactly the same as it was when i was 20 (so why now so much more obvious:o ) measurements taken (my god the waist needs some work!!:eek: ) and flexibility was measured...(excellent:D ) The diet thing is going badly, my cravings for redbull and sweet stuff just are not abating!!!!

Squirrel, I've still got the m-phone thing on my handset, not hand any problems with it just need to check occasionally as the data connection keeps activating. other than that no issues, i'll let you know if the cheque turns up!!!

right off for the arduous task of listing god knows how many books on amazon!! wish me luck!!!
