    hi rose.
    we have to put charlie in kennels cos its unfair to ask any of the rellys to dogsit as hes not exactly small:rotfl: and sometimes makes you feel claustraphobic, cos eveywhere you look ,he seems to be there.....although he has lost weight, bless him.:D ....not by his choice:rotfl:
    re the test...we bought a cd that let you take the test, the pretend stuff with lots of vids and scenarios, and dh practiced all the time with it.was about £6 but well worth the money.dh used it to brush up before he went in for his bike test cos he has had licence for yonks so alls changed and they are so picky now.maybe its an idea to help you if you havent done stuff like that before.got it for morrisons last year.anyway im sure you will walk it next time, pardon the pun.
    glad holly seems ok.such a worry ,arnt they??like kids.
    take care, babe.
    love ilgd xx

    lol bout charlie :rotfl:

    he would prob tower over my little one, she looks like a right lady princess atm, coat all shiny, and just lookin good. she is eager to get down the road and see the farmers dogs tho......oh dear lol and yes they are a worry, but we love them
    1.gif

    Yes i did revise via an online thingy, coz i cant read books too well. Spend hours doing all the tests, and that, but it seems over here things are different, and there is infact a diff highway code and rules etc... what a load of carp :mad:, why cant it just be the same, so when i have been revising i havent been revising the right thing, for one i was learning of a test that gave 50 questions when in the test it was 35. which means that we are wayy behind :o frickin twiglet sticks


    but on the up today i got a phonecall, from someone that has been trying to get hold of me for agees. the guy in question is recruiter for ship photography in south hampton...now i replied for 2 ship jobs at the same time, one was ased in miami, which i had interview for at start of month. but they didnt impress me. Anyway this other compant in South hampton, the guy finally got hold of me and it was like a reunion lol. we have been playing phone tag for soo long, but not getting anywhere, today rang him from work and the conversation wen something like this.....Hi ...... its rosie, " omg rosie from ...." yes thats right " wow i have been trying to reach you for ages" i know lol, me too. " we need to meet you" ok " what are you doing right now" im at work " where do you work" in a shop " ohh dear we cant have that, you need to be out taking photos" yes i do, i miss it. " right then" so then it kinda ended there coz i was at work and he had to get on, jist is tho he ringen me tomorrow to talk properly as i have the day off tomorrow ....yipppeee. but what the fcuk do i say tomorrow? , gotta get a portfolio together, and he was talking like they were going to fly me down to see them so we could interview :T dont think ive heard someone sound soo keen on meeting me, which was strange. maybe someone finally realised i have talent :rotfl:

    so any ideas of questions etc... i should ask tomorrow ?

    im gonna go write a list lol

    take care hun
    huggles

    :hello: Everyone,

    Hope all is well,I saw my friends at the church,then I went to craft class and sat down and waited to do the work.I then became low straight away and I just cried and I felt so negative as I didnt want to do anything.

    Went home and awaited my CPN,She came just after 4pm and I got weighed.I have some good news to share I have lost some weight :T go me! :rotfl:



    didnt help when she left when I went to a cafe for my usual sausage and chips but I didnt feel like cooking in my oven.

    relaxing tonight and going to have a nice evening


    *hugs* to those that need one


    love and light,

    Woke up and felt better but my OH spoiled that. Within seconds of seeing me, he said he thought our son had bed bugs, so felt down about that. Had a good look on the net and don't think it is them. He is still itching and has spots. We are fine. It still grossed me out.

    I rang my mum asking if she knew about them, as she has seen them etc. She kept saying I moaned too much and too negative, so now I don't feel worthy of anything or anyone. How can I be positive if I'm criticised, she has a strange way of showing support and I feel really down now. It too many months of counselling to get her odd attitudes out of my head and can see how it used to get me when I lived down south before.

    I do get frustrated when I try to help my family when they come to me about problems and then they don't listen when I try to help them. I get interrupted and feel second rate with them. I'm told I interfere too much then don't care enough. I don't feel I can win. My mum said for me to get a job but to come home to my family's sh*te after long day at work is too much for me to cope with.

    I don't know what they want from me. I feel wrong whatever. The message I get is males can get away with anything, females are wrong and have to put up with idiots with a smile:(
    An average day in my life:hello: :eek::mad: :coffee::coffee::coffee::T :o :rotfl: :rotfl: :p :eek::mad: :beer:

    Awww, im sorry to hear how your feeling. There will always be someone close to us that will make us more down, feeling worthless and silly. Dont let what your mum has said get to you anymore. I know its hard, I get the same thing from my brother, they go on and on.They do not understand how difficult it can be, even when you try and tell them.

    Start to think of yourself and put yourself first. Try and get a bit of me time, even if its 10 minutes a day(10minutes isnt enough for me-I need hours, days, weeks and months to recover from parenting lol)

    I have to go now coz dear son is moaning at me, he should be asleep but he isnt use to new home yet, I havent got him a bed yet either,I have so much to do but am going to start sorting more things out tomorrow. Chat soon and keep your chin up-HUGS x

    Thank you for your kind words - I feel very alone tonight.

    I don't feel close to my OH tonight and my son has his mates round and didn't invite me - not that I'm bothered, I don't feel like I am good company just now. I feel fat and ugly and every time I feel OK, I feel put down by my OH miserable face then got at when I feel upset by things when I talk to my mum about it. Our son isn't interested.

    No wonder I comfort eat to get my blood sugar up again after being upset brings it down, and drink to cheer myself up, it numbs any worries about being deflated I get when I get happy.

    I'm a flipping mess
