I’ve been craving a strawberry cake with pink icing for weeks so today I made one. I’ll never make it on bake off but it’s a pretty colour so I’m happy

No the farm didn't have cows! No idea what is going on. There must be a cow shortage in England

We did see a donkey though

We called it Doreen. Doreen the donkey

Look what I've got

Hiyyaaaaa

I've been to my boyfriends families for a roast. It was boring. I'm glad to be home & about to be watching love island

Me and my boyfriend were on the bus and I had the baby on my knee looking out the window. I went 'look at all the people' and my fella went 'alright....' like he was trying to think of a name. Then he went 'the verve?' I went what are you on about! He went 'it's the Verve who sings that song that Goes imagine all the people' I was like what it was john lennon you fucking idiot from the Beatles. Then he went 'are the beatles the ones who try to be like Oasis' (that second comment was a joke. I think)

I just won a tenner on a scratch card

 

[AnderbeauJohnson]

What sort of farm has no cows?

...an una-moo-zing one.

In the words of Harvey Price himself




we got our keys, we’ve stripped walls, cleaned until our hands hurt and attacked a very overgrown garden. I am so happy

Absolutely gutted I have work tomorrow but at least I have 5 days off after that

I’ve been a top tier mum and got the paints out. Here’s my creation. I think it’s quite good

 

[WilmaHun]

Im feeling very emotional tonight. I don’t know if it’s the lack of sleep or because I’ve got a big day tomorrow completing on my house, or both! I really hope I get a good sleep though. Ive done some yoga for the first time (via a YouTube tutorial so I probably got it all wrong!) - thanks @Saddlesoap for the suggestion. Had a hot bath with lavender drops in, and sprayed my bed with a lavender spray. Now going to avoid screens for an hour. If all of this fails then I might have to find a local drug dealer to give me some strong stuff to send me off

have a good evening everyone xx

Guys,

I was just reading another thread and I came across a post I really liked/resonated with, but there wasn’t a like/reaction button.

Because it was my post. Ffs.

 

[Meangirl815]

I've just booked a night away for me and the Mr

I mean it's not until Feb because i need time to find babysitters etc but still IT'S A NIGHT AWAY

Sorry think i got a bit overexcited there

 

[Hope96]

@Hope96 what’s wrong?! Sending all the loves

@Hope96 hope you're okay lovely, what's up!?

Thank you for asking and thank you @WilmaHun for the lovely gif. You're all so kind to me. Good luck for tomorrow and I really hope you get some sleep tonight. x

Last Thursday I went to my ex's apartment block and left some gifts outside his apartment with a letter inside the delivery bags. I had bought the gifts for him prior to the break up. I'm unsure whether it was wise to do this but I didn't want them in my room and I felt like it would be a waste to throw them away. I thought he could get some use out of them.

I suppose I knew he would message me to say something but I didn't stop and think that it could break my heart even more which I didn't even realise was possible? I switched my Internet off for a good 9 hours or so after I left his because I was dreading what he would say to me. He messaged me Thursday night saying it was kind of me to bring over the gifts and that I shouldn't have. He said he really appreciated me doing that and then said he was sorry he hadn't messaged (I met him over a month ago and he'd promised me that we could be friends and he'd message me soon. He said this to my face and messaged me to say the same when I got home that night) because he had been "quite busy" and he "didn't know exactly know what to say and do". He then ended his message saying he hopes my new job is going well. I cried for an entire hour after receiving that message because I feel cheated by him because I thought for once he was being genuine and sincere.

I replied back to him on Friday in the hope he will just be straight up and tell me what he meant by what he said but he hasn't responded even though I can see he's been online. My heart hurts all the time? I'm having counselling but I wake up feeling extremely low. I drag myself out of bed and put on a smile at work and home but I'm drowning. Out of sight and out of mind is his mentality towards me I think. All I want is a reply from him even if he does admit that he has changed his mind yet again.

My mum has said he's living his life... why aren't you? I know it is true but I'm consumed by it. I know I should probably delete and block him but I don't feel ready. I try not to look at his social media but I do give in to temptation. I feel like after 4 months I shouldn't feel so let down by him but I do. I still love him so very much but I know he just doesn't care.

All I want to do right now is message him and just say "you don't want to be friends do you?" or "why are you doing this to me?" but then my brain keeps telling me he might reply back soon... it's only been a few days but I'm just being stupid aren't I.

A lot of lovely ladies on this thread are familiar with how I've been feeling the past few months because of the break up so I'm sorry for moaning yet again. I just dont have many people to talk to about this because a lot of them don't understand why I'm still so upset over it. I started a new job 5 weeks ago and I really do think I'm going to love it because it will be so rewarding for me yet I feel like I'm in a horrible rut because I just want my ex to be decent... how can I expect someone who left my belongings in the rain to be decent? I don't even know what world I live in sometimes.

I don't know what to do but I know for certain that I'm still heartbroken and drowning in my emotions.

I took my son out for lunch. Asked him where he fancied at which point he sighed like i was the stupidest person alive and replied 'i don't know anywhere i can get a nice cup of tea'

Then when we got to the restaurant he exclaimed 'woah what in the seven seas is this place'

He's 5. Never had tea in his life and he's very funny tbf

My colleague is quitting soon and I was very brave (by my standards) and invited her to socialise rather than just saying 'we should keep in touch' and then never speaking to her again.

We're going to see RHPS live in November. Go me! If I keep practicing, this socialising malarky is bound to get easier.

 

[BelleAmie]

I wish I was knackered

 

[AnderbeauJohnson]

Hormones be like...






Luckily a very sad day means it's stopping... so tomorrow I should be feeling a whole lot better

Spoiler: Look if you're brave enough

What does a pirate say to a fit girl?

[Penguin86]

Been out with the camera again but this time my subject was my cat Pixie

My anxiety is through the roof. I need to stop reading/watching the news

Spoiler: TW: Self harm

I have a habit of picking/scratching my skin until i bleed and I had managed to control myself but last night I opened one on my arm and it bled for ages

Currently curled up in bed watching The Good Place.
I guess I wore Pixie out today

 

[Penguin86]

Having a pretty chilled night editing photos from earlier. I didn't get any super perfect ones this time.

Look at the effect on this magpies tail though

Here's a few more
