I hope your day got less stressful Caz, I've spent the afternoon in bed trying to recooperate. I'm so tired!! Ive got another 12 hour shift ahead of me tomorrow so I'll definitely be having an early night.

I'm going to have a little bit of a rant (not like me at all lol). It's about a colleague at work. She's so negative all the time, it's actually really starting to get on my nerves. I like to think that I'm mostly quite a positive person, but like everyone prone to a bit of down time now and then. But this woman isn't depressed, just negative. This is probably going to sound childish and silly but its getting on my nerves.

I'm ill at the moment but she's sicker. All day Monday she complained about how sick she was, how painful her cough is etc but the only time she seemed to cough was immediately after I coughed. Hers were very dramatic and attention grabbing, whereas I've always tried to suppress mine or go out of the room. It seems that no matter what problem I have she has 10 more much worse problems. To make things worse, she's actually a friend of mine, so I really feel like I can't say anything. It's so frustrating, I want her to sympathise with me for a change instead of me always having to sympathise with her all the time.

Sorry for the rant, I'm probably being unreasonable.

So stressed out I might just burst! Just feeling tired and cross and grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. That is all. Really hope I can sleep tonight. Got some sleeping tablets somewhere, might have to dig them out!

TBH I think the build up to mothers day is getting to me too. I don't have a mum, and I don't give a crap about mothers day - not that I gave much of a crap about it when mum was alive. God damn Hallmark holidays just need to sod off!

Just got some gutting news. The sale of my granny's house has just fallen through because the buyer couldn't get a mortgage. The sale has been going on since the beginning of December, and only now has this fact come to light. I'm gutted for my parents because they desperately need the money from the sale and it was literally meant to be a matter of days before contracts were to be exchanged so I don't know what's happened.

I've got £1000 saved towards new windows for my house which I've offered to lend them so they can at least get their heating fixed but they're not having any of it and its because they don't know when they'll be able to pay it back. It really stresses me out that they're struggling and won't let me help. At the same time I need new windows but they can wait for now, parents heating is more important. Aargh I could cry for them!!! :cry:

Tell me about it. I don't have a Mum either.

Sal, that's cr@ppy news, I'm so sorry. It's crazy that this stuff doesn't come to light - that's what we're supposed to be paying estate agents for. Hope they find another buyer really quickly so that you can still have your new windows. :hug99:

My uncle only found out today because the buyer had a letter sent to him at my granny's house (the cheek of it) uncle opened it and found that it was from mortgage company saying mortgage had been rejected. If he hadn't opened the letter who knows when they'd have found out. I'm so gutted for them. My windows can wait but they've been struggling financially, paying for useless solicitors etc hasn't helped matters.

I wish I could help somehow, I've offered to go and paint the upstairs to get it to a blank canvas stage rather than how it is now, a bit old ladyish. Downstairs has been done but upstairs has been left as was because they got the buyer. I know when people want a house they often can't see beyond decor.

 

[Starlit_Cazza]

Sounds all very frustrating Sal, your poor parents!

My scales are stuck. 3 days since they last moved. Grrrrrrrr. Stress level still through the office, so going in to the office to be stressed today rather than just being stressed at home.

My friend has posted about being single forever and dying alone and how no one will ever love her again...ffs she kicked her fiancee out 2 DAYS AGO?! Permission to slap her?

 

[great things]

grrrrr to crap advice on fb. just got rid of a being a member of a closed group. stoopid stoopid dozy bugger on there advising peopple to drink 7l of water a day cause she does. still saying it's ok despite me posting about the evidence of water intoxication. then i say it can cause an imbalance of your body's electrolytes..... salt which can be very damaging.

then say alcohol is zero carbs. it does have carbs (minimal) but your body burns carbs unless alcohol is there. she's low carbing. another woman doesn't know what carbs are. give me strength.

 

[Starlit_Cazza]

Feel like I've lost my way a bit at the moment...

 

[Lily]

Let's see if I can find you a map.

Ah, I feel your pain. In recent days I've felt similar pain so I've really cut back on where I post!

 

[Lily]

Oh, and my scales are also stuck. On 14st 2lbs - 2lbs more than this time last week, grrrr.
:rant2:

 

[Starlit_Cazza]

My scales are stuck too. B*stards are conspiring against us

 

[Starlit_Cazza]

Maybe I am just looking for somewhere to place the blame, but I think my general mood and depressive feelings only seem to have come about since my steroid jab... Coincidence? Steroids are evil

 

[great things]

where's the whoosh fairy?

i'm afraid that i've not got back to 810 plan since i came off it at the weekend. my weight's been ok with the intro of carbs. i feel more full of energy at the minute. i'm considering waiting to go back to cd until after the 4th april and get my mum's anniversary over with. in the mean time i'm thinking of small portions, exercise, keeping a lid on my love for the dark side (wine). it's all cause i think that maybe i'm truely not ready yet as i keep being tempted by hubby's offerings. then after 4th april i will do ss. i need 4 1/2 to 5 stone off ladies. 2 1/2 to get back to where i was in january 2012. i'm so fat. i'm struggling to get into my gym gear. i bought a bigger pair of trousers but they keep falling down if i'm on my feet and legs, on the bike they're fine.

Still no movement on the scales = grumpy Caz

Still no movement on the scales = grumpy Caz

I lost a whole pound. So unless something shifts tonight, I'm looking at a gain this week. It serves me right but when you read about the cheats some people have and get away with (people who weigh a lot less than me) it's bl**dy disheartening. And the pound loss was only achieved with the help of the Dulcolax Fairy. :sigh:

Grumpy Lily too.

In other news, I'm ringing the changes by being on a train to Birmingham instead of London. Yay!
