    Absolutely. I was saying I prefer being at home and that’s what I would do to be told that that isn’t a relationship. 

    I’m just so fed up of criticism. It’s so tough living with so many allergies, and it means I am a lot more restricted but I manage and do what is right for me. I know how lucky I am compared to some people in the world right now and just wish people would keep their negative views to themselves!

    Home from the cinema now. DD is having dinner and I’m relaxing with her. Had a lovely morning x

  • Really glad to read you had a good morning, I don't understand why people feel the need to basically be always right. So what if you don't like the same things. Just weird to keep on. 

    One of my friends is super nervous to try new foods and we always go to a chain restaurant cos you know what is what, I would rather have her company then sod about finding fancy pants places to eat.

    Nevertheless she persisted.

    Glad you enjoyed the cinema and that DD seems to be back to her normal self now.

    Don't worry about what other people say or think.  You know what's right for you so 'good on yer' for standing your ground xx

    When I was student I had a friend who turned down several dates (with a really dishy man, I'd have jumped at the chance if he'd ever asked merotf ) because she says she'd be embarrassed to tell him that she needed to go to the loo.  The prospective date kept wanting to take her for country walks, picnics or trips down the river in a small boat and obviously there'd be no 'real' toilets there and she was worried how she was going to cope.

    I don’t get it either! I agree about your friend. Being anxious whilst out is no fun for anyone x

    Everyone everyone,

    I’m just enjoying the sun in the garden with a small glass of wine. 

    My feet are still in the same condition and no sign of peeling yet. This is apparently normal and won’t kick in until day 2 at least!

    I have my glass making course tomorrow. It has been rearranged from last November so I’m very excited to be doing it. I’ve been Googling ideas and getting more and more ideas which means I’ll have to narrow it down! I always want to do so much and know I can only do bits and pieces as time is a huge factor. 

    Have a lovely evening everyone x

    Glad DD is better and you’ve had a good day.
    Honestly some people need to keep their opinions to themselves. The people that say to me about relationships etc,  I really want to say to them I couldn’t imagine anything worse than your marriage (both have selfish lazy husbands)  but I don’t because that’s not the polite thing to say 🤣🤣
    Share your thoughts and ideas with friends who are positive and give encourage but also who will give you a honest opinion. 

    Take care xx

    I am going to do this. It’s a huge exciting opportunity that I didn’t realise I could have. Instantly I just got such negativity x

    I can’t explain how excited I am. I’ve been screen shotting potential ideas.

    The wine was light, rose and fruity. Very much my taste x
