I love those toenails! They’re fab.

I feel a little sad for you, mace1234. I think you’ve got a lot of years ahead of you and you deserve the best in life. Why are you putting up with his abuse? I wish there was advice I could offer, but YOU hold the key to this situation: you’ve just got to use it. You are more important that being treated like dirt. I think you maybe see yourself…[Read more]

I do actually play the Postcode Lottery. I have not won anything yet, however. I have been playing for a number of years now. You don’t get the opportunity to win millions: winnings are in the thousands of pounds. I do want to have money – and do work – but extra income would be very helpful.

With any luck!

You’re very sensible, SpinningJen. I wish others thought that way: then there’d be no cases of animal abuse and neglect. Of course I love animals, but how would I manage? I do think if I ever lived with someone else I’d buy a cat, but I don’t live with someone else. Still, it is a dream to own a housecat. I absolutely love cats: I am a mad cat…[Read more]

I have to say I am looking forward to all the Christmas celebrations. It’ll be meals out, a party with my social club: you get the gist. It is my birthday in early December, too. I turn 38 years old. Where does time go? Anyhow, I will be spending Christmas day with my family. It will be great to do all the shopping in advance, as I do most years.…[Read more]

Sophie Ellis-Bextor’s song “The Deer And The Wolf” from her “Wanderlust” album. Genius.

Welcome to this forum, greensun. I agree that everyone shares their experiences rather than dictates what someone should do: we all have good intentions with our advice. I can be blunt myself, but am never rude or condescending.

I look forward to seeing if I can offer any advice!

I love wearing dresses and skirts, as well. I try to wear trousers a lot less often these days: they are boring and predictable. No: you look great! It is definitely worth dressing up: even if you’re not going anywhere special. Why shouldn’t fashion be enjoyed? Have fun with your style! Being expressive and creative with clothing is wonderful.

I have to agree 100% with bunnyhabit1984. He will NEVER change. I doubt he cares about his underlying reasons for abusing alcohol: all he cares about is the next drink. No amount of talking will change him. Unless he wants to, nothing can be done. I have had friends with alcoholic parents and nothing ever changed. Alcoholism destroys lives:…[Read more]

I have watched all of them now. My favourite is the Heinz Weight Watcher’s advert. That was the funniest!

Thank you, Rachel!

I also look after my feet, mamie: I cut my toenails often, use a foot cream at night and soap my feet daily in the shower. I use a foot deodorising spray after washing my feet, too. I LOVE looking after my feet.

My nails are also my pride and joy. They are an odd shape [only slightly], but I paint them and they look good. Vanity is wonderful.

I’ve had this happen to me, too. But I am trying to change the tide. My best friend, Vicky, stays in touch. She came to where I live in the week and next week I’ll be visiting her. I do NOT want to lose contact. She is such a lovely person and I plan on keeping in contact with her for many years. BUT I know what you’re saying: people do change and…[Read more]

Whether dangerous or not, pets are for life: as cheesy as that sounds. You can’t just put the animal away and say I’ve had enough for today: that animal needs care and attention. Too many people don’t realize this, hence abandoned pets and other creatures. The RSPCA – obviously – know all about this.

I don’t like boats, either, mamie. I much prefer flying!

Of course, you don’t want to push him away: he would most likely defend his partner. I can’t say whether he’s being controlled. As for your jealousy: I don’t think these thoughts you’re having are out of jealousy. Of course, I can’t read your mind but I don’t think you’re acting out of jealousy. Just quietly support him and let him confide in you.…[Read more]

I love your artwork, SpinningJen. It must be wonderful to be able to draw and paint. You’re very lucky to be artistic. Great work.

I love all of them!

I remember having cards strung onto the wall. It was a family tradition for many people. Christmas is such a nostalgic time of year: I always look forward to the celebrations and traditions to be had. And not just on Christmas day: because I have 3 meals out each year. One is with work and the other two with my social groups. Oh: I am helping with…[Read more]

It goes to show, cassandra, not to believe the stereotype of men being into yard work and the suchlike!

Anyhow, it is great that you’re handy with gardening equipment. I’m not myself. In fact, I do not gardening at all and never have. However, I do love plants and flowers: I have plants in my apartment and they’re healthy and thriving, so I do…[Read more]
