;D DONE - including 3 pairs jeans in carrier bag that have been moved here there and every where for about 8 years as need zip and button fixing - and be lucky if could fit them over one leg now! does your silence today mean your being run ragged by your 2 and 4 legged clan? ---- or are you conceding defeat ?

wow when u move u move eh! know what you mean - need a tetnus injection before dare enter my girls room - (she's the only person I know thats worse than me!) I found its getting harder today - giving away my books is a wrench! iv'e got stronger bonds with my books than I have with my daughter at mo also find it so hard to go in charity shop and walk out without buying anything! And know for sure i'm weird now cos why oh why do I find it so hard to let go of batteries that are dead?? plastic take away containers and the lids?? empty boxes?? carrier bags?? All sorts of useless pieces of wood?? Anyway, day 2 done and still not seeing a difference roll on tomorrow (and my lesson in humility ) xx

;D got to keep you on your toes you being so competitive an all (I think humility is over rated ) this was such a good idea, i'm getting right into it, was knackered today but couldn't think about anything else - was a buzz. (told you I had a sad life eh!) Found the rubbish bit pretty straight forward as my place such a mess at mo but thats all the obvious rubbish gone today -gonna be harder tomorrow! giving stuff away was harder - and felt like I was cheating cos about ten of the 27 was books - which made it easier. Hard part was forcing myself up the charity shop as natural inclination was to leave it all by door to take tomorrow cos was late by then and was *ucking freezing out! annoying as well cos just had to do it even though this is a virtual world (sort of) and you wouldn't know any different couldn't just lie and say i'd done it even though was a right pain and didn't want to trapse up there with my pensioner trolley but thats part of my personality and its really annoying !! Looking forward to tomorrow and also hopefully start to see a difference cos can't really notice much difference here yet as its such a state! How was it for you?

so does that mean ordinary rubbish that u normally throw away counts then - as long as its hanging around or on the floor and needs cleaning up - not like if you come in and open something and put it in the bin straight away?

I second whats been said above and sympathise as I had similiar prob when my mum was taken ill and I think your making the right decision to go, we tend to regret the things we dont do more than the things we do do (in my experience any way). keep in touch with your friends and us lot on here wishing you peace and strength love janev x

been thinking some more ---- and I find that the main thing that gets me doing anything is when I see someone else doing something first -- and I could of been struggling to understand or procrastinating for ever -- and soon as i see someone else do it straight away i feel/think of a better way ---- this must make me horrible to be around. Anyone think of a job i could put this skill to use in? Anyone else like this?

yeah go girl! what a fab day WELL DONE YOU XXX its a pity you and lion---- sorry can't remember end of name ---don't live near each other reckon you'd make a great team. Though you and your son sound pretty good together as well. Made me remember a time when i was younger (much) and a boyfriend brought his huge german shepeherd puppy round to my flat and it did huge dump in my living room and I was adamant that he should clean it up as it was his dog but he was having none of it so I put a bucket over it to sort the smell and then kind of forgot about it and walked around the bucket in the middle of my living room for weeks until finally got around to sorting it -- and hey presto it had bio -degraded or whatever you call it into fine like cobwb stuff and i just hoovered it up! ;D

been giving this lot of thought - but apart from coffee and lists can't think of anything as I know for me have to be in the right mood which doesn't help and a lot of time spend so much time worrying about stuff should do but can't make myself do end up exhausted and still nothing done.
Know I love helping people though so wonder if the stuff you need doing doesn't have to be done by you (like essays) could you and a mate make your lists - and then swap - you do her stuff she do yours and you wouldn't want to let her down so get her stuff done easily and yours been done as well - just athought

- - - -your spending a fortune in the laundrette (when you get around to getting there) and you've got a washing machine in your living room!(thank god for fabreeze!) - - - - you hate washing dishes more than anything in the world and you've got brand new dishwasher still in the box in your living room! - - - - your cooking everything by micro wave and you've got TWO gas cookers in your living room! - - - - to get the above sorted all you have to do is paint your kitchen (have managed 3 quarters of it) and put down the roll of lino that you've got and have been moving from room to room all over as it well gets in the way for NINE years!

i'm the same - in that i relive arguements over and over and over again as someone said above sometimes years later! and with the friends thing if i get upset by something - usually if i feel let down ,thats it ,iv'e cut so many friends off and never spoken to them again . needless to say can't have birthday parties anymore - not many left to invite! but worst thing is as said above it doesnt really bother me! saying that i'm not confrontational anymore as anxiety has taken over my life for years now but if its a moral kind of issue then i cant keep my gob shut!
what frightens me is that i may one day get like this with my daughter. thankfully i read a really good parenting book years ago and it said its the duty of the parent to try and make things up after an arguement even if the child is in the wrong and ive stuck to that so far but now she's a young adult i'm finding it harder and what scares me is i think i'm capable of just switching off from her as wlell

hi ya i'm female and straight but do have add though not diagnosed and not medicated. don't know if its different for guys but even when i was a raving alki (been sobor 10 years now) i was never unfaithful! seems to me like this guy is well taking the piss and if I was you i'd get out NOW before its too late!
Sounds like he doesn't care about any one but himself! having unprotected sex whilst hiv positive is NOT ON and having add is no excuse - there is no excuse!
I had to leave my daughters father 2 weeks before she was born as he was violent and abusive and it was hardest thing iv'e ever done i know its hard when you love someone but you need to love yourself more babe if that man is going to treat you like that you must deprive yourself of him. Follow your GUT EVERY TIME I say.

well said Dave. i couldn't agree more. Am interested is it true what my teens friend told her that drinking while on ritalin gets you out of it quicker? Is it the same with concerta? Am wondering as my daughter should be taking meds but she doesn't at mo so is it something need to watch when i finally persuade her the meds will help.
