Trying to have another one about food.................

I might crack up and have them take me to the funny farm. 

I was going to list all her likes and dislikes but 1. You have all heard it all before and 2. I don't have the energy to keep coming up with solutions. I think the temporary answer is two different meals a couple of times a week so I am not always eating sodding mashed potato. 

In other news I gutted one third of the shed. Utterly full of !!!!!! that needs to go. Did a short video for mum as I wanted her to understand what I was up against. She thought it was fine. Hand to God guys, it is NOT FINE. 

Not Fine. Nope no no no!! 

Tomorrow will hopefully be tip (my second home) and trying to reconfigure the living room as the stair lift necessitates me moving the fish tank (don't ask) 

No spend today and yesterday but Amazon has crept back in, we needed to get dog treats...............they are cheaper on there. 

I am going to change the hay order.  I know you are all excited by this news but it saves me money..............

Different meals is the only way you can satisfy both your foods preferences. Don’t be hard on yourself about this.

Yeah  think so. 

In other news the "friend" who gave me her rabbits is being very passive aggressive which I don't tolerate well. I am so wound up. Actually hate this feeling. Hate manipulative people. HATE them. I think she might angling to get them back but she is ignoring subsequent messages. I predict she will message later when drunk. I am very angry with myself for being wound up.

How did you get on with batch cooking the mash?

Is your “friend” now able to look after the rabbits again? It would be a blessing for your 3 to have more space if you’re confident the foster bunnies would be ok. Maybe we could pretend we believe she’s being off because she feels guilty about all you’ve done for her.

Do you have a good book / movie to bury yourself in to forget about everything for a while? Plus turn your phone off so you don’t have to deal with the drunk message until tomorrow.

I did all this before tho, I keep holding off from the bonding thing in case she gets a house or in case she can have them where she is renting. Reading between the lines I suspect she has split up with the guy she was seeing, expects me to be available like the old days - I now can't be as instantly around as have mum and so she hits me where she knows it hurts, suggesting the rabbits aren't well. And I know I am a grown woman and shouldn't be wound up like this but after losing the two previous rabbits in difficult circumstances I do second guess myself and she knows that. She has also said other stuff iis hurtful. I am also annoyed as this is the 3rd time a woman I thought was my friend has done something like this. I just do trust people, even tho my gut says are you sure Buffy?  

Hopefully I can resolve thing with her tomorrow and I have the courage to end the friendship. I know that sounds dramatic but I tired of being manipulated.

You're also allowed to end a friendship without an explanation or goodbye - doesn't sound like you owe her anything at all!  

And funnily enough, when I have done that, the dramatic reaction/ exit/ showdown I was expecting never happens and I wish I'd taken back my time and energy ages before!
