Aww sorry your Christmas was spoiled Rosie, lets hope this year brings a more positive outlook in to your life.. At least your daughter's were with you and you can't beat family !!
Gutted is not the word. I don't know how but pressed the wrong button and blocked someone dedicatedly didn't want to do. Knowing admin not likely to be done on holidays, and it's the only way I can communicate as staying with family where no mobile reception available. Worst Christmas ever with being Ill and not being where I want to be. 8-((
Would've been nice to have got a Christmas Greeting of some kind from my kids, especially as I sent them one. Proves the old saying I reckon "Out of sight Out of mind"
Old saying can pick your friends but not family. I know it doesn't help you at the moment but one day they will come to realise family is important and be ashamed they didn't do more. Hope that both Emzed and Dave and anyone else in the same position had good friends in touch x
Dave, Emz, and everyone else in same boat - their loss and something they will regret but don't let their lack of consideration and common courtesy get to you; it's everywhere, not just in family.
I most certainly don't let it get to me any more, I've grown used to them not getting in touch, except when they want something or a Birthday is coming due .
It was more than made up for by the greetings I have received from friends I have got to know here on BM .
Having to come back to an empty house after a really good day out in the company of some great people.
Enjoyed the ride there and back though about 120 miles
What's the point going into work when you get there no paperwork and no truck keys fter searching for half an hour you find them then get to your delivery point and they can't find the gate keys
Also the fact im trying to decorate and fix things up in my flat, and keep running into problems i just cant deal with myself, and lack of lovely strong man around to help only rubs my nose in it,, there will be tears before bedtime i tell ya
@boodyblues, i used to be very independent on the days before marriage but after nearly 22 years of being told to sit down n leave it to me (him) i totally lost faith in myself n doubted i could do anything myself.
Since split at beginning of year my confidence has come back n i am starting to do things again, although i must confess that some tasks i do ask for help with and @georgieporgie, @rileymtr n @stuie have been invaluable to me, not only do they sort the problem they show me how n explain what to do.
My advice, assess the job - is it simple n will it cause a major prob if u do summat wrong? If so get advice from someone who knows. If doing the job yaself, take your time, dont rush. Get the correct tool as it helps greatly. Dont panic if it dont work first time, a bit of back tracking on what you av done often helps. A bit of research and patience is often the way forward.
If you feel you cant cope with the task ask for help, it isnt failure its being realistic!
Most of all NO TEARS BEFORE BEDTIME! Its not worth it.
On a lighter note, my bathroom door knob was pulled clean off by a mad burd (guzzi lady) i put it back on... Obviously badly cos it came off when my daughter and her mates had a party, not only that the otherside came off too the same night. Needless to say my (19 yo) daughter fixed em and they are now solid. Just goes to show it dont always go right first time!!
Thanks got bike sound advice,, think a variety of emotions came to the surface and the chores thing kinda tipped me over the edge so to speak,, hugs xx
