You need to take care of yourself as well. It is not selfish to seek help from others, or talk to someone about how overwhelming this is for you. It is important that you know that asking for support is ok and no one will consider you selfish for needing it.

Just like itsnotthebeer and your friend, sometimes life just completely overwhelms me and before I know it weeks have gone by without me contacting people when I would swear in a court of law that I had only spoken to someone last week.

Yes.. I live in Newcastle.

We had a huge storm come through my city on early in the week. Power went out on Monday night and they only restored it yesterday (my Saturday) morning. It was frustrating but I know how lucky I am that it was only power and food I lost and not my home like other people did, and I am seeing a positive in that I had to…

Right? I read that I thought.. I just don’t see that being her deal breaker... or anyone’s really...

Definitely a new shade of red. I noticed it this morning.

Plus, when she first married him she was very vocal about the fact that she wanted to have a baby with her new husband despite her age and the challenges she had faced in her pregnancy with her older son. She brought it up all the time on The View

My nephews are 10.5 months apart, my brother in law’s famous last words for happy surprise baby number 2 was “don’t worry honey, we won’t get pregnant” .... they had tried for over 12 months for baby 1... she had only gone back on birth control that day.

I had this happen a few years ago... although not that many people.... I invited 15 people to come out to brunch for my birthday, all but 1 said yes (and she only turned me down because she was going to be away but would have come if she hadn’t been), 3 turned up, 1 friend was legitimately sick and had let me know she…

I can’t say for the U.S. but I know here in Australia, Nuns no longer wear the habit. They wear regular, modest clothing and have done for a long time.

My nephews are at an age now where I ask them to give me a list of 3 or 4 things they really want and then I will pick 1 or 2 and it means they still get a surprise because they don’t know which one I have picked. I also always run the list by my sister as well in case she knows someone else has already bought them…

When my Grandmother found out she was terminally ill she was determined to pay for as much as she could before she died and the very first thing she did (the day after her diagnosis) was buy cemetery plots. A double grave for her and my Aunt and the plot next to hers for my Grandfather (because no way she was sharing…

That is exactly the thought I had when I looked at the picture... My sister’s walls are like that often because her boys like to rough house with my BIL (although the bigger they get the less he joins in now LOL)

My nail technician exclusively uses OPI so there is a very very high chance she actually has it... YAY...

I LOVE that colour.. that might need to be my next choice at my next appointment if I can find something similar.

I’ve seen my double once ... she lives in the same city as I do (well she used to at least), it was over 10 years ago now but I kept having people come up to me saying they had seen me in random places I had never been in my life... these were people who knew me, who I worked with every day or who I saw on a regular…

Me too... I just kept thinking... but they all spell their name Jane not Jayne so there is too many letters....

I really REALLY love the headline of her latest blog calling him a “notorious fashion thief”

My Mum kept my Dad’s surname after they divorced because her maiden name was Polish and she didn’t want to have to go back to spelling it out to everyone. She took on my Stepdad’s name when she remarried though.

Me too
