Got is a very wise sage woman Smile
We're all cut from the same cloth, Zig of course we understand.
We're going to get there all of us. There's a reason we're all on this thread. It's a bloody bumpy ride but we can make it easier by supporting each other!

Inarightpickleandchutney · 17/03/2017 22:34

Ok, kinetic I can't sleep not knowing how you are.

Be smart and halve your normal line size as a minimum, tolerance will be as f you've never had a line in your life.

Your brain will try tell you otherwise.

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 17/03/2017 22:36

Yes let us know how you are, K no judgement here x

Dh cousin has started calling/texting. Can't quite remember who was around when I first just joined the first thread. But he's the one who will turn up with an ounce/Henry/quarter whatever and just dish it out for the company. He use to pester us every weekend and we'd indulge him but took a step back last year and would just be busy etc he stopped pestering for awhile but has started again recently and I'm worried about him. He's very lonely and has a lot of money and had an awful childhood so I'm worried he will do something stupid but we can't be pulled in and we can't enable him.

I have 3 weeks off at Easter lost.
I am getting my nails
Done... I'm so excited.

I've invested in some nail oil to try to soften the claws I appear to have.

GotToGetMyFingerOut · 17/03/2017 22:39

Yip also thinking about kinetic and worrying about you taking stuff alone after a year when your tolerance will be down, with your daughter there to be honest. Can you get a friend round to share it with you?

kineticmagnetic · 17/03/2017 22:40

Still no gear, have text and called to no avail

kineticmagnetic · 17/03/2017 22:41

Text and said if not here by 11 I'll be asleep and won't be paying. No reply still

Inarightpickleandchutney · 17/03/2017 22:42

I reckon he
Will no show kinetic, it's tick, been a year, he's not feeling any urgency.

Try relax, it's all fine!

GotToGetMyFingerOut · 17/03/2017 22:42

Kinetic you are probably climbing the walls and going between hoping they do come and they don't, you done well calling and texting to cancel. I'd just turn the lights off and go to sleep. If you have text to cancel and they still come that's their error

Inarightpickleandchutney · 17/03/2017 22:43

My dealers of old would never reply to anything unless it was a
Definite cash making transaction.

I reckon he knows not to come
But hasn't bothered saying its ok because its Friday night and there are cash making things to do instead

Inarightpickleandchutney · 17/03/2017 22:44

Oh also! Turn off your doorbell if possible

GotToGetMyFingerOut · 17/03/2017 22:46

Yeh replying to that's not a priority

kineticmagnetic · 17/03/2017 22:47

Laid in bed, no lights on, half want it to come and half don't. Will let you know xx

kineticmagnetic · 17/03/2017 22:47

Don't have a doorbell

GotToGetMyFingerOut · 17/03/2017 22:49

IF they come and see lights out so call or text, do NOT answer. You are almost there, 12 minutes till eleven o clock and you will of surfed the first fucking tidal wave we have had on here!

Inarightpickleandchutney · 17/03/2017 22:49

We are all behind you kinetic.
Just chat to us instead to relax

kineticmagnetic · 17/03/2017 22:51

Well that's a year down the drain... will go steady xx

Inarightpickleandchutney · 17/03/2017 22:53

Halve normal lines, loads of water and chill.
We here kinetic

kineticmagnetic · 17/03/2017 22:54

Thank you x

Inarightpickleandchutney · 17/03/2017 22:56

You know it kinetic!!!

Section off normal
Line then pop it into 3.
Or 4 if you are me because I can't cope with odd numbers!

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 17/03/2017 22:57

Tidal wave indeed.
Got really sad about your friend but I think you're right to pull back from him a bit. It's a bit of a cliche, but he needs to realise for himself and want to change Sad. You could let him know you're there if he needs support? Sounds like he's in a bad place but sometimes you have to hit a real low, like losing friends, or job to come back up again.

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 17/03/2017 22:59

Ah Kinetic seen your update. Take care.
Armbands and surfboard ready in the morning. x

Inarightpickleandchutney · 17/03/2017 23:09

Gift shop has onesies!
