My child is playing up, my sex life is crap, my skin is grey , I am on happy pills but still grumpy because ....

[twinsetandpearls]

I have just looked at the clock and I have been working for 16 hours today, having a quick 30 minute break to eat my dinner whilst helping dd with her homework.

And there is still more to do, I will indulge in a quick winge in here and then hit the sack for a few hours.

as I am getting no sympathy I will get back to my marking

sorry, am too busy thinking aboutthose gorgeous shoes you keep introducing me to.

Shoes are the root of all evil, if I didn;t buy so many I wouldnt need to work so hard! Don't let me turn you to the dark side

It's a tough time. It will get better though.

child playing up- SEND HER TO BED!

sex life is crap- well clearly you work to much . promise yourself that you'll initiate sex this weekend, even if you dont feel like it, you'll get in the mood after you begin. presuming you have partner!

skin is grey- 1. exfoliate. 2. add colour. ambre solaire has a spray on light fake tan for face. you use it every morning (like an air-brush, no need to rub in) until you look tanned enough. its very light so builds up to a natural look. oh and blusher, blusher, blusher.

happy pills- should be called fine pills. keep your head above water. dont make you really happy unfort. so before you go to sleep congratulate yourself for three things that you did today. do this every night. happiness may follow.

will that do?

She has been in bed for hours, the memory of her playing up before bed time is still lingering!

I am constantly in the mood for sex no problems there and have a partner it is just fitting it in - so to speak!

Ooh is is fake tan time already? how the year flies. I look OK with the make up on but when it comes off in the evening - it is scary.

you are right about the fine pills.

I used to do the congratulate before bed maybe i need to start again.

Thanks

i am truly on the dark side already. the only thing stopping me from buying those gorgeous heels, is the dodgy dodgy ankle, for which i am surrently still wearing a support, and have a doctors appointment tomorrow morning.

the great thing bout the spray is that you dont need makeup. takes the greyness off so you wake up bootiful.

now take advantage of your partner and make the most of it! tis only when you're single you realise its worth finding time for!

I think he is asleep but I will join him as I have an early start.

Good luck with the doctor tomorrow Treelover.

I will check out the ambre solaire, although I have been loving my porcelain skin until I went grey - in my head I look like Nicola Kidman but with short brown hair a large gut and stumpy legs.
