Very Bad - my horse tried to amputate his leg on wire in the field yesterday. Managed to cut through to the bone & it is going to be very expensive.

Very Very Bad - the vet discovered while treating my horse for his leg that he has a serious heart murmur & once his leg has healed we need to do further investigations to see if he is going to be safe to ride. There is potential due to the severity of the murmur that if I take him for a gallop he might drop down dead underneath me.

Bad - Boy am I going to get a huge vets bill!

after listening you a few of you's i though it could be fun ! She was fine i passed of some stuff links and

useful stuff ect then my OH written something on facebook (nothing nasty he had a rubbish day at work and was ranting)

which she assumed was about her and well it all kicked off then, tried to explain it wasn't for her ect

she was really nasty but you were right she's not as good of a friend i though she was!

Nevermind though hey !!

OK so I'll start by saying bad because for some reason, couldn't post this the first time and now have to rewrite it all Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Sorry to hear some of you have had pretty awful weeks, lets just hope the next one is better.

Good - Have just about sorted all the stuff the shippers are going to pack and take away for me;

I'm picking up my dress on Wednesday;

I've only got a week left at work

Bad: I hate moving/packing etc etc etc

Nobody (yet) is interested in buying my lovely sofa at a price that isn't bargain basements warehouse clearance sale.

Tbh i feel sooooo much better now on sun-tuesday i felt horrid

the things she said hurt i was so upset, but then after the response

from people including some members of her family i just felt happier

i learnt i do know some lovely people i wasted 11 years on her never again!!

now i just hope i dont bump into her on here, i told her to join as it's fab

and the people are so nice !! So hopefully she won't come into the forums!

he he fingers crossed !!

Yep, we're going to call him Jacobey, which everyone hates. This makes me like it even more ?

I love it !!! One of my brothers is called Jacob i call him Jacobey !!

It's fab ! x

Good - It's payday!

Good - Shopping for bridesmaid dresses tonight!

Bad - My big boy has chicken pox which means my little boy will probably get it soon too!

Good: Horrah its Friday and the sun is shining whoop whoop ?

Good: I can't wait for tomorrow as I'll be trying on a bridal gown I've had my eyes on now for weeks, the bridal shop phoned me yesterday and told me the new stock is in. I was jumping up and down in excitement (just hope its as expected) ?

Good: Seeing the lady, on Sunday, thats making our cake to throw some ideas around, can't wait for that either.

Bad: Weighed myself this morning and only bloody maintained (well arsed off) I was good all week and did exercise every day and thats how its rewarded me ? ☹️ I have such a long way to go too, why can't it maintain after I've lost my first stone at least grrrrrrr!

Good: I got my MOB outfit

Good: I've finished my daughter's holder for her bridal bouquet which has taken AGES to make

Bad: Have had to deal with burocratic idiots that work for the various agencies involved with my Mum being taken into residential care

Bad: Have been given two weeks to clear her house out before I have to hand the keys back to the council

Bad: My car needs booking in for it's service and I don't have time to do it!

Bad: My washer is broken AGAIN and I've been without a washer for a month now and it's driving me mad because they can't get the part Grr!

Good: We're off for a weekend in Grenoble, an hour and a half south of Geneva

Bad: How expensive French toll roads are - 30 EUR for a return trip!

AHEM!!! where is the flashy flash flash b!?!?

Oooo you missed it - I flashed the other day! But seeing as it's you I'll flash again



I should say loud and clear that the cold feet are only due to no heating in my office and even though I had two pairs iof socks on I was still having trouble feeling my toes!

No cold feet about wedding!

Well... If I had posted this Fri afternoon it would all be good, but since then so much has gone wrong! So...

Good - Booked our TOG

Good/Bad - was really upset with my best friend on tuesday (long story) but turns out it wasn't him and was probably his B2B, who i know doesn't like me so nowt new there

Good - Started my uni course on Wed

Good - Made my Mum buy two dresses in Next (for her, not me!)

Good - Showed Mum the venue and she loves it (Phew!)

Good - calculated that I've saved half of my wedding budget in 6 months, with just under 16 months to go

Then it all went wrong...

Bad - While cooking dinner last night with my brand new Christmas pressie casserole dish I (stupidly) forgot the lid was hot and dropped it. Smash

Bad - Woke up at 08:05 this am when I was meant to start work at 07:45

Bad - Went outside to find someone had tried to break into my car and both locks have been smashed

Bad - It's going to cost nearly £300 to fit it I think, and will take at least 4 days for VW to get the new locks

Bad - I'm going to look dodgy getting into my car via the boot in the meantime!!!

Poor you nursebride...great about the pennies though,i wish i was in that position.

Good things....finally as posted got my 13 a dress for the wedding,she is really pleased and it looks great on her.

My three year old went all day yesterday with his pants on and had no accidents...hopefully we have turned a corner (i hate toilet training)

We have an appointment with the venue on thursday and i am lookiing forward to it all seeming a bit more real

Bad things....have spent far too much money already this month and was thinking that i might have to borrow of my OH as it is a 5 week pay month for me,then he came home last night and said £500 had been taken out of his bank...i reckon it is a payback scheme thing he signed up too as he had a credit card which he ignored to pay for years,the took £300 out of his account a couple of months ago,he then set up a payment plan and then told me last night he did not pay in December as he was skint (far too lazy to pay it!!!)

So if you are still reading,i control all the money he gives me £600 to pay for the house and half the money for the little ones nursey,i drew up a wedding savings plan that we both have to pay £150 a month to scrape by...looks like that won't be happening plus i have already bought all the presents for my little boys birthday on the 5th of feb that he should be paying half for......really annoyed at him...
