I need a tutor.....ffs, I now remember why I failed my O level chemistry the first time round. The course I am doing now, although it aint chemistry - it does contain a lot of chemistry basic knowledge in it.

I am about one day away from pulling all my hair out and giving up. Well maybe not the giving up bit, but definately the pulling my hair out bit!!

I think I may suit being bald ;P

Isn't it strange the things you do sometimes. I did something today that I never thought I would do and I am quite surprised at myself for doing it......and it was a 'good will' gesture.

I never thought the day would come that I could and would forgive and forget so many bad things from the past. It just shows that you live, you learn, you move on and you forgive...

lol, kinda makes ya feel all fuzzy inside

All I have to say tonight is 35!!!

And no its not an age thing....heeeheeeeee


GOOOOO MEEEE!!!

T in the Park is a definate goer now! We have had our tickets for a while now but I wasn't decided totally on whether I was going or not, depending on a few conditions being put in place. We are now decided and committed having everything sorted out (and more importantly, me not having to slum it in a tent...lol)

Bring on the party!!!

So much for a quiet and relaxing evening!! I got a phone call about 10 minutes after I blogged last night, it was from my eldest and she and her friends had just been jumped by a group of older girls!

I dont think I have ever ran so fast as I had to last night to go and get them. My daughter wasn't the worst off, one of her friends was in a right state but they were all distraught. I managed to get one of them a lift home, then had to track down the other ones dad before I could take my daughter home.

We spoke to the police but I don't think they really have much to go on though.

They are all okay now though, but I will know better than to plan any relaxing again.....

Right, time to for work! Have a good weekend xxooxxoo

MMMMMM, I have discovered a new love!

The kids are both out tonight so its just me in here, so I thought I would treat myself in style.......I have had a nice bottle of champagne in the cupboard for about 3 years now and a nice box of choccies sitting next to it.....

lol, guess what I am doing tonight while the kids are away....Nothing like spoiling yourself once in a while )

I have a week off in a couple of weeks, a time to relax maybe? I think not!!!

I have been going around with a pad and pen tonight and have a list the length of my arm of stuff needing done around here. I may need to take two weeks off going by the amount of stuff to do.......

I made a total pig of myself tonight, i made a meat loaf for me and the kids which was really scrummy but the kids didn't like it. That was a real pity, because I just ate the whole thing as it tasted soooooo good!! I think I may make myself another one tomorrow, lol!

Have a good night NN xxxx

OOOhhhhhh, I read my stars for the month and it seems I have a very good month ahead of me......Yeah right, I will believe that when I see it!!

Back to the dog's story; I know it's getting boring, but this is a good 'un. The new dog has been really annoying me with his random peeing around my house. To begin with I gave him a row for it but didn't go too hard on him as he was getting used to a new environment - but after nearly 3 weeks and who knows how many "accidents" I was starting to get 'slightly' annoyed with him. Well, last night he did one on the carpet right in front of me, so after I took him out, came back in and cleaned up his accident - he went and did another one right in front of me!!

At that point I practically screamed the house down at him!! After that he more or less glued himself to the floor all night and took the first telling off for everthing I said to him.

My daughter was off school today and she phoned me at work killing herself laughing. She heard him peeing today, so went to investigate.

Now this is a very clever dog.....lol!!! He found an open window and was actually peeing out of it.......Aint he a clever thing, heeheeeee

I have been having a good old think over the last 24 hours, trying to figure out what to do....(whether to cut my internet or not) as well as trying to practice not having it. All I have to say is, that everytime something happened I kept trying to run over to blog about it, but had to keep reminding myself that I may not be able to do that anymore. I still haven't decided about it though.

The car is now up for sale, and I am cutting down to once a month riding from now on

Anyway, doggie is now much better....he is still on medicine but his dose has halved from what it was.

Anyways, might pop back into chat for a while....have a good night xxxx

has hit me bit time! I have had to look at my lifestyle in a serious manner.......I really can't survive this lifestyle anymore and am getting into more and more debt, which is depressing me more and more on a daily basis. It has taken me long enough but I have finally had a real look at my personal finances and I have come to the conclusion that I am spending too much on unnecessary luxuries!

So the conclusion of my audit....

1. I am going to sell my car. I will save about £50 monthly on petrol and insurance, plus the annual saving on road tax and MOT bills.

2. I am going to try to stop smoking, which offers the chance of a £120 a month saving, but failing stopping totally I can probably save a lot if I at least manage to cut down.

3. And the most dratic of all!! I am considering going back to 5 channels of TV, telephone service with no mobile numbers allowed (damnn those kids phoning their friends on their mobiles all the time) and *shock, horror* NO INTERNET for a while!

4. Marrying a millionaire! (Okay, not cutting back on a luxury, but it certainly would make life much easier right now though)

OOOhhhh I just thought of a number 5......Give the kids away to the highest bidder!


Hmmmmmmm, I'm beginning to like the sound of #5
