I feel empowered.
I took some responsibility for myself and emailed my old orthodontist practice asking whether I was still registered there and if I can have my braces removed as I would not be able to keep up with regular adjustment appointments (I haven't had my braces tightened in a year) and how much it would cost. One of the receptionists emailed back to say to phone up to make an appointment to have them removed. I emailed back saying could I possibly be offered an appointment via email because of my problems using the phone(I didn't tell them I have problems using the phone though. They think I'm freaky enough.lol.) Just waiting for an email back now. Even if I do have to phone, I feel I have made the first step and I know that Janette would help me with phoning anyway.
That's my accomplishment for today.lol.

Hello all - I haven't been here in agesssss!
To those I know, hope you are all keeping well and happy. To those who've arrived since my last visit - the same message to you :grouphug:
Update from this end for those who remember me. Well sadly my Mum is still housebound with lower back problems but tomorrow I am going to explode unless the doctor takes some more positive action - 4 months of throwing controlled level painkillers at someone is no use, she MUST see a specialist asap.
I was headhunted for a new contract :j which I'm enjoying alongside my other PR work and it means we are a bit more financially than have been though I am still a DFW of course :money: :rotfl:
In myself, a bit tired but generally feeling positive and I am sending magic, positive fairy dust to you all .:'*':.positive dust.:'*':.0 -

Hi everyone, feeling a bit better now :j
Listened to my voicemail, one was really good news and the other was from work but they just asked if I could call them. I couldn't quite manage to brave the phone call though so thats a job for tomorrow.
Had a piece of bad news though, I lost out on the flat I really wanted AND they were really rude to me about it :mad: Oh well, will start flat hunting again tomorrow if I have time.
Had a good couple of hours with a friend ealier which has cheered me upWe went to the launderette (exciting I know!!) but while waiting for our washing we went for a drink in the pub across the road and had a good chat.
Should be going out with the guy I like in a bit, will know in the next half hour, so going to start getting ready just in case
Hope everyone else has had a good day or it's at least got better if it didn't start out too great:ADFW Nerd 145
