Martyn how are you ? you have gone all quiet on us, not like you at all

Don't worry, I'm still around, just keeping in the background.

I was doing reasonably well up until a short time ago when I managed to upset someone who has been very kind to me, mainly as a result of me being thick and insensitive. I now fear that she won't speak to me again and I don't know what I can say or do to change things.

Just go explain and armed with a plate of twinks hob nobs. if the person you upset is in any way understanding, you will forgiven, simple as that. It's all you can do when something like this happens. Trust me, been there done that and got the t shirt as a result of depression and stress.
I'm not well myself at the mo and the resulting stress from the whole thing has led me to upset quite a few people. I've learned not to dwell on it as that seemed to make things worse for me, worrying about what other people thought/felt if you see what I mean.

All you can do is explain, apologise and give a peace offering.

HTH (((hug)))

martyn, glad you are ok as arkonite_babe said all you can do is say sorry and explain what you are going through, if she is a good friend all will be forgiven, if not then put it down to experience xx


Have you done any cooking or knitting lately ?

Good evening everyone :hello:

A late Happy Birthday to Masters Kyle and Pink!!

R.mac - congratulations to your sister, I saw the warriors, she can be really proud of herself. Good luck for your exam tomorrow (it was you wasn't it?!).

I can't remember much more of the thread I'm afraid.

We had some bad news at work today - a man died (at work) on saturday due to an "incident." Obviously there is an investigation about what happened but the rest of us know at the moment is that he worked in a dangerous environment. He had a partner and 2 children. Neither me nor anyone in our office knew him but its still very sad and our thoughts are with his family.

So, onto the trivia of my day, I've decided to keep an eye on the flylady thread and do what I can each day(without expecting too much from myself!) - today the kitchen has had a good clean....then I made tea! Not much cleaning up to do though so will finish that in a bit. Lunch is made for tomorrow. Tea was "rice splodge" - rice, beans and veg boiled in stock and chopped toms and was lovely.

Its a bit late to wish everyone a good day so instead I'll wish you all a good night's sleep and a happy day tomorrow.

Happy Birthday to Kyle and Pinks DSs.

Well day to h*ll today. So tired. Just about kept up, Posted Squares for Smocky and Children.

Why did internal audit today phone today to say I was 20p out with my end of year budget? I have processed so many invoices over the financial year and have been meticulous. They have now admitted they round out VAT when I have rounded middle or down. 20p - well!!!!!!! Is it going to add to Council Tax (I work local authority.)

Had a potential family issue to deal with but think I have diffused the issue - think treading on eggs! Wrong end of comments and conversations. It could have ended up feuds.

Going now as too tired to say any more. Just hope Pink and HJ rub along together!!!!!

Good to hear from you. Read my post and words in haste can be mended. Don't worry! If she is a friend and understands your current situation not a problem. Or, take the bull by the horn and just say you made a mistake.

Hi,

Well all the plans I had for the weekend went to pot and the whole weekend has been a disaster really. I started on Saturday with the coats and shoes, I was able to sort out Eric's work clothes of the rack and his work shoes and bag them ready to go but then I sorted out the kids and my coats and couldn't bring myself to do anything with Eric's. I found a coat that hadn't been washed and it still smells of him and that was the end of that. I have been incredibly low since and have been a major pain with the kids over the weekend.

I don't know what to do to make this better, to take away the pain. I couldn't bring myself to take the sleepers, will do so next weekend when I can gauge how I will be with them when the kids don't need to get to school.

Don't know what else to say really, it's taken me a long time just to get this written.

I hope you all remain well,

Smoky.
