Awww thank you sweetie

Today I got a phone call from the letting agents saying that they hadn't received my standing order, I thought this quite odd, as rent shouldn't be due for at least 3 weeks, considering I've only been there a week and a half. It turns out that we have to pay out another £170 oh and 14p as a first payment. Now this really got me confused, and to be honest, scared, I don't have £170 oh and 14p. I had no idea why they wanted even more money out of me, I'd paid first months rent and security deposit which is standard. After speaking to one of the girls at the office it seems that rent comes out on the 25th of every month so that they can have the money put into the landlords account.....ok.....I get that. But what is this first payment of £170 oh and 14p all about.... well the first payment is in fact half of next months rent, only half because we paid for a whole month but have only been there give or take a week and a half. So that will sort us out for November, wonderful. Are you confused yet!!!??? I sure was. After speaking to the girl and telling her that giving first months rent plus security plus their admin fees had maxed me out, I don't have the money to give them.......well basically she told me I had to, there was no way of getting around it......I was stuffed. I told her I would see what I could do, and my time limit, about 2 days....wonderful. Well after passing a brick I went and saw a mate who is very kindly lending me the money.

The thing that has really annoyed me is that we have had these forms and knowledge of it all since we moved in.....well some of us have. Basically I would have been told all this when me moved in, but I never met the person from the agents who would of. Two of my darling housemates were suppose to. So they have all had time to sort this out, I have been given two days. I'm very very upset with them, and soon they will know that.

End of rant

[Karen W.]

Sorry Daniel and I am sorry that happened.. I have had things like that creep up on me at times and truly hate that feeling...I like the cute little egghead with the heart! So glad to see everyone!

Hi Dan!  How are you? 

I'm good today. My mate who kindly lent me the money has saved my bacon.

And because I feel good I also feel bad, I have a lot of dry humping building up inside  []

How are you me dear?

Sorry Daniel and I am sorry that happened.. I have had things like that creep up on me at times and truly hate that feeling...I like the cute little egghead with the heart! So glad to see everyone!

Awwww hun. It does indeed suck. Glad you liked the egg  []

[Karen W.]

Pretty cute indeed! Yes I am glad you were able to get it worked out!!  I am doing good today had losts to smile about and felt some better today!! I love this forum... makes me very happy! You are all wonderful friends that always bring smiles to my face..

How did your day at work go.. Did you get all the trouble solved between the fellow workers?

[Gaia]

Karen, how's your back? Did you go see a doctor?

Dan, glad you got the rent sorted! Next job... internet access!!!!! 

[Karen W.]

Good morning and goodafternoon Gaia.. No I have not seen the doctor yet. It is still sore a little better. I think it will be fine...Its hurting above hip bone, but back a bit around my kidney area on my right side, then over on the left side Higher up below my shoulder blade! I am still taking some Ibbuprofin for the pain... 6oo mg right before work, then no more til morning... Just enough to allow me goodmovement during day with kids.. at home I can relax it and be More careful..

[Karen W.]

Why are the posts taking so long to post with that white blank page?

[Gaia]

Karen, I know ibuprofen is widely available but you shouldn't be taking them every day for a long time without medical advice so don't keep doing it for too long! Also, it can irritate the stomach so are you taking it with/after food or a glass of milk?

[Karen W.]

 They are actually a recomended dailey pill from my Doctor.. they are a prescription I have to usefor some joint problems, I just try to minimise them.. I am supposed to take them every 6 hours, but I hate pills so I only take them in the morning.. I moved the schedual up to  9:30 AM because if I take them at 5:30 or  6:00 AM, they don't work through my work schedule!

I do not take tylonol as my friend took recomended doctors dose everyday like prescribed and it killed her.. It built up in her system.. I Think it destroyed her liver, she was good on thusday, Friday went to emergency room couldn't tell what was wrong died on Saturday morning!! Her liver failed.. It was horrible and I know she was an exception to the rule and doctor underestimated her size and her body just did not handle it!!  I am careful.. only take what I need and since was already supposed to be taking this I figured if I at least took it in morning, I would be good... You see I don't like medicine.. I have to take alot of it, but the Ibuprofin is for joint pain..I was so heavy for so long that it caused damage to my joints. I have found alot of relief in the huge weight loss, but still on some days have trouble with my right hip.. falling out of my van seemed to exasperate the pain, not to mention my back!! Thanks for the advice.. I do watch out for things like that and have a sensitive tummy... Don't worry, I will be ok and will go soon..

Work went ok, although I think there is a girl at work who might have taken a shine to me. She's sepparated from her husband, I think not that long ago. Plus I get the feeling that her parents are trying to get them to work things out. I always get the ones that are mentally stable, oh well  []  []

Haven't had chance to try and get the guards to sort their differences out as one of them has gone on holiday and the best time for them to talk is over the weekend when they have to do handover.

Karen, how's your back? Did you go see a doctor?

Dan, glad you got the rent sorted! Next job... internet access!!!!! 

Yeah, hopefully they'll pull their thumbs out and sort it. I would but they have all the info, they get a little funny if someone else tries to do it, or do it differently  []

Is not stability a situation that does not change.  If someone is entering a period of change (e.g. reaching out for a new boyfriend/girlfriend), are they not by definition in some way unstable?

The question should be not whether they are unstable, but whether you can bring stability to their life.

Daniel It was about a year  or so ago..  She was a very petite person, about 4 ft 7 or so.. The doesage was  more then her body could handle over time as she had beem taking them for several months many times a day.. as prescribed.. It was horrific and such a shock to her whole family.. and all of her friends.. She was about two years younger then I am..

 So I am defineitely pill shy.. Only take them if I have too, go without if I can get by with it.. Probably why I forget sometimes on my important meds.. I have no problem with them as They are essential to my well being... I never miss them on purpose but have forgotten them... I have some memory loss at times when I do not take meds.. not permanant, but kind of like foggy or hazzy memories ... Still there and it goes away and gets better if I stay off meds, but then other things get real bad so I prefer to take my meds, You know what I mean!!

I wondered how the girl department was going... Is she nice anyways..  One day Daniel really soon.. someone is going to catch you up and snag your heart and you will be a fine catch! I hope she finds you soon!

I know what you mean hun. I'm not a big fan of pills. Never had a pill till I was in my mid teens. It's the feelings that you can get off some of them, horrid, although sometimes I enjoy the spaced out feeling.

She is a nice girl but I don't like her in that way. I'm probably just off base though. Perhaps she doesn't like me in that way. I don't know, wish I had some flu tablets so I could see the pixies again  []

[Mirage (OP)]

It's turned into one of those days for me. My heart is heavy, loaded down. Tomorrow will be better though, I'm sure it will

[Gaia]

Dan, what's up hun? Are you okay?

[Mirage (OP)]

I'm ok now thanks hun. Was feeling quite odd and a little down earlier. But hey, chin up otherwise you might miss something wonderful

[Karen W.]

Chin Up indeed, get on here and keep me company young man.. I know how those down times can feel. Many of us do! I hope your feeling better. I missed you today!

[Mirage (OP)]

I'm feeling a lot better today. The thoughts I had yesterday are still here but not as bad, so they're not making me feel down  [] [] [] [:X]
