Zoonie 0 Posted February 25, 2010 So exciting for you Frannie, how is OH doing now?OMG I was just watching Coach Trip on Channel 4 and we're in fits. They're in Switzerland but the activities got cancelled due to the weather there, so they spent a long lunch, with lots (too much) Schnapps after.This really big guy got wrecked and was sobbing in the street about missing his boyfriend, and wanting to bring him over there to meet everyone, the rest of the party (the ones who weren't drunk) were looking like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marlies 0 Posted February 25, 2010 Ooh ok, if someone sees her, can you say I said hi?I have to go now, dinner.Talk to you later Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frannie 0 Posted February 25, 2010 aww Gill I feel badly about that. I just have not had the time and what little time I did have I soent on visits and the hunt... Yours are fun, even if they are difficult Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zoonie 0 Posted February 25, 2010 No worries BG, school work must come first!Don't worry Frannie.Do you think I make them too hard then? I thought I had to keep up to the standard of the Scavenger Hunt (which I find too hard) - maybe more people would do it if it were easier? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frannie 0 Posted February 25, 2010 am trading as we speak.. i just can't buy those darned boxes any more Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toulouse 0 Posted February 25, 2010 Grrrrr, the lazy girl just made me get a fine at the library!!!!She's using my card because her card was already full (we can only lend a certain amount of books and I offered to help her out) and I emailed her a couple of days ago the two books on my card were expiring today... Offcourse she didn't bring them back in, one is reserved for someone else, which makes that I have to pay because SHE is a day late! (I know she will repay me, but still!)

Zoonie 0 Posted February 25, 2010 BG, next time, don't let her borrow your stuff - and if she says why - the reason's clear.Here I can renew my books online, even if on request - but for just a week rather than the usual time frame. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toulouse 0 Posted February 25, 2010 I got to renew one, but wasn't able to renew another one...I'm getting fed up a little - and probably it's my own fault because I want to help her... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frannie 0 Posted February 25, 2010 well girls.. am going too go sew for a bit.. Robin brought my television downstairs for me today.. I need to get this quilt finished before my trip. Have a good day.. and if I don;t see you Gill... have an awesome time Sunday! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zoonie 0 Posted February 25, 2010 Well, that's a trade off between how much you want to help and how irritated you get.If you help her, you have to do it because you want to do it, not to feel good about yourself, but then resent the help you give her, if you see what I mean? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toulouse 0 Posted February 25, 2010 I don't mind helping her, it's something I like to do (and not just to feel good), but I'm just frustrated I have to "run" behind her (not quite sure how to explain). If someone borrows me something or helps me out, I always try to return something as quick as possible, without having others asking me to return it, you see?

If someone borrows me something or helps me out, I always try to return something as quick as possible, without having others asking me to return it, you see?Of course, yes, I understand, but you stress too much over it, you either need to do it, and accept that she's the way she is (you wont be able to change her) Needing 'mollycoddling' (that's what we call it when you always have to be behind someone, checking them) OR, you say, this is too much stress for me, and bow out.Otherwise you just make it far more of an issue for yourself than it should be.From the outside looking in, and from what I've learnt over the years, that's my take on it anyway.(BTW, completely aside, grammatically,you lend something TO someoneor borrow FROM them e.g. if someone lends me something, or, if I borrow something from someone.May I borrow your...Would you like to borrow my ...I could lend you my ...)I was brought up to always return swiftly, anything I'd borrowed - or not expect to be able to borrow anything again.It's a very common mistake, even with native speakers, so no offence meant by the way - just trying to help, hope that's OK?

Toulouse 0 Posted February 25, 2010 Absolutely agree with what you say, I think I have to decide what to do in the future. Thanks!Oh and I'm not offended by the explanation of borrowing/lending, that is quite helpful! Thanks (again) We only have one word for that, so I think I'm confused because of that.

Toulouse 0 Posted February 25, 2010 I THINK I'm done with emailing for today. I have sent so many emails I cannot even say what I've done! Oh I got an email concerning pilates, I'm too late to get accepted in this years class, so I have to drop that. I didn't go to Zumba last Tuesday - hurt my leg, so will take a test lesson coming Tuesday (but RA doc told me it might be too hard for me). I think I will go swimming and use the hometrainer often.

TanyaRC 0 Posted February 25, 2010 awww honey ..... I am so sorry ..... Where is my magic wand ????just be careful with your meds ..... Maybe the reason you had a problem was that you didn't take something right ... I have an idea ,,,,, If you are up to it and like it of course ..... How would it be to get all the C&G people who are here to dress up in birthday clothes and make a birthday picture for the PSFC forum ....... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
inu-kijo 0 Posted February 25, 2010 sure, that sounds like a good idea!(and might put us in better graces with the PSFC people here. : D )I am pretty good about my meds.... but been forgetting stuff lately.... I was going to go pay my car payment tomorrow, and called to let them know I would be in, and I already paid it!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TanyaRC 0 Posted February 25, 2010 are we in trouble??forgetting things could be a side effect of the meds .. Does that mean that you have extra money ???? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
inu-kijo 0 Posted February 26, 2010 Not really "extra money" but not as bad off as I thought I was!!!: DBesides..... car payment is $350.00!!!!I think forgetting things is a sideeffect of working too much and forgetting my days.Today I feel really nauseas. But that is a side effect of taking too many of the wrong kind of tylonel (I ran out and dont get paid til tomorrow) and no milk either.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
