I hope that didn't sound creepy and stalkerish - I used the code from the button to find you on photobucket

that sounds like a great idea I may need to invest in a good set of false teeth though as I do have a bit of a sweetie addiction.
Laurel that sounds similar to the ap I have for my ds - its 100 classics and I've read 6 so far (Secret Garden, 2 Sherlock Holmes books, Dr Jeckyl & Mr Hyde, White Thang and Call of the Wild) - v good value for money
I'm reading the Minotaur takes a cigarette break and I'm loving it. Its beautifully written, so much so that I almost don't want to finish it.
The Solitaire Mystery by Jostein Gaarder (I hope I spelt that right) - that was brilliant and I read it in 4 days.
Now reading the Minotaur takes a cigarette break and that's beautifully written - I don't want to finish it :/
I thought you'd been quiet so I'm sorry its because you'd not been good. I should imagine that the therapy has been pretty intense so maybe you got a little burnt out. I'm glad to hear that your back on track now though x
I've sorted it - I think the link goes to your blog but the button code was for something other than your button - I went to photobucket and found you there and copied the code for button that way.
I do that thanks! I did think that it was a tiny victory though that the button did at least go to the website even though it didn't have the pic.
I got the bits I needed last weekend so I'm planning on getting going this weekend. I hope it comes out the way I have planned
I feel for you Minnie as its not nice when you get grief for trying something new or different. The issue of kids behaviour has been something I've thought about a lot over the years as I've worked with young people for about the last 10 years. Initially it was with homeless young people and now its mental health. I think there are several problems at work here - for one the cost of living is so high now that both parents are working all hours they can in some cases to keep up. I think this can lead to guilt and then money being thrown at kids to keep them happy. I also think kids in the UK are under so much more stress now then they were when I was growing up. My niece was stressing about exams when she was 8 (I think) and I think when you start giving children adult responsibilities and stresses things are bound to go pear shaped. I see how some of the little ones are dressed now and they are wearing short skirts and sexy tops at about 11 and thats wrong too. I don't know what the answer is unfortunately.
I think you need to hold onto the fact that he's with you. You also have history which can go a long way too. Could I ask how old (roughly) you all are? I only ask this as you said she was 3 years older than you. It sounds like there could be a little bit of an age gap which I think can make one half of a couple feel a bit insecure. You could talk to him about how your feeling. I wouldn't say to him that you're comparing yourself to her, just that you're feeling really crap and not sure if your good enough, or something along those lines. I hope that makes sense.
I've done this and the button sort of works. The only problem is that all the nice graphics won't appear - it says that the pic in photobucket doesn't exist anymore.
Wow Nicholaxoo thats amazing - £5 is brilliant. Jessica your hair looks great so I can see that £110 is worth it as it looks quite a complicated style. Bec I'm impressed that you have found someone good for such a good price. I think part of the issue is that St Albans is pricy and a lot of the places are very salony. I used to go to somewhere that used to have a lot of older clients and they were less trendy but did just as good a job. Unfortunately they shut down ages ago Unfortunately my local college doesn't do hairdressing, Watford does but after a day at work I'm shattered so its not really an option. I'm happy to stick with cutting my own hair but was just amazed that blokes seem to be able to get such a better deal. Maybe I need to draw on a beard and go to my local barbers
I'm not sure what the situation is in other countries but here in the UK if you are female and want to get your hair cut you are probably looking at paying a minimum of £30 (I live just outside London so it might be a bit less further North). If you are a man and pop along to your local Barber you could probably get roughly the same cut for less than a £10. How is this fair? I have very low maintenance hair these days and have been cutting it myself for the last 2 years as I just don't have the cash to pay someone £30 to spend 10 or 15 mins cutting an inch of the end of my hair and asking random questions about my holiday/plans for the weekend/weather......
I've grown up having cats and I think the relationship you develop with them is so special. They have such individual personalities and your relationship doesn't gather the same baggage that human ones can so when you loose them it does just feel like this pure grief. Its hard to explain but when my cat Jake died he was only 3 and died of feline leukaemia. It was really quick how he declined and I was absolutely devastated. He was a massive fluffy white and red tabby - we used to say he had long blond hair and I really struggled with him as a kitten. He had this awful knack of pooing on the things that mattered (like my CDT coursework!! ) but once he got through his really kittenish phase he was absolutely adorable. He used to come and visit in the morning and put his face right up by mine while I was in bed and he had the loudest purr and when I was on school holidays he used to lie at my bedroom door (if it was shut) and stick his paw under it and rattle it till I got up and let him in.
Anyway, sorry about my rambling, the point I was going to make before I took a bit of a detour was that although I was utterly devasted initially that was replaced by all these memories and you don't ever loose them.
no worries
