    I totally agree with Lucifa, when we got together my OH knew lots about me that a lot of other friends still don't know (we even spoke about debt really early on, in fact it was sitting down explaining it to him that made me add it all up and decide to do something about it!), and it definitely made us closer.

    I hope things go well for you Skint.. awww aren't those early days lovely :p

    There was nothing that bad to be honest but it's just odd to be so at the start already knowing EVERYTHING! at least I don't have to pretend to be interested in his hobbies!:D and he already gets on with DS and my pals so need to worry on that score.

    hi all.

    Been to my course this morning, Ofsted starts at my place as well today - we don't work in the same offices do we Louise?!

    A star MSE'er sorted out my HMV tracks for my Sony (thankyou ;) )

    My head isn't in a great place today, it's been building for a bit and I'm recognising some not very pretty signs in myself.

    Decided to just take a chance on a hairdresser a few houses away from my ex when I was with my boy out earlier - had a sod it moment and asked if they had any availability - and I'm off back there in 5 minutes. Not quite sure yet what I'm having done, I'm in a bit of a 'don't care, not bothered, do whatever you want' kind of mood I'm afraid. My hairs a mess at the moment so it might make me feel a bit better. Maybe.

    (((hugs))) for those who aren't really where they want to be, and big cheesy, soppy grins for those who are.

    I've had a tricky year in my marriage, but things are good at the moment (famous last words...:rolleyes:), and when things are bad, it's the most horrible thing in the world. But Stu is my best friend, and he's also got a very cute bottom ;) so I do know I'm lucky (most of the time :o).

    Skint your weekend sounds very exciting!! I'm not going to be there on Saturday to find out the gossip though.....boooooooo!! :p:D

    Eeek - don't do anything too rash. I had a major I'm fed up strop just before going to thte hairdresser - I went in with lovely healthy hair halfway down my back and came out with an undercut 1920s bob:eek: I'm still growing it all back :o (I liked the short cut for all of 5 minutes then went to the gym and couldn't keep it out of my face)

    Hi everyone, Just popped home from work as no lessons till 6pm tonight. Everyone at the college has been rushing around like blue aresd flies this morning and after all the chew I wasnt observed this morning.....they might catch me tonight though:o

    So enough of my stresses

    Skint - I think I should have a full and detailed desctription of what when on date wise as I wont be there on Saturday and the big question I want to know the answer to is DID YOU GET HIM IN A LIFT????:rotfl:

    Maz- I know exactly how you feel hun I am having problems myself but am Really trying to get them sorted as I wont give up without a fight.

    Keren - I really hope that you feel better about yourself soon, you are a lovely person......maybe you need to surround yourself with more positive people (MSE excluded from that statement, we are all great):D

    Jinky and Snaggles - I am totally bombing out on the SW thingy and need my arrse kicking.

    Hello to everyone else too:hello:
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.
