**Losing A Housemate, Gaining Oscar**

 

I had a chat with my housemate last night, She has informed me

that she has been looking for a new place to live,

She wants her own place again and wants to be independent.

So fair play to her I wish her all the luck.

She told me she went to see a flat/bedsit in town (Only about 10/15 mins walk away)

Its actually the place me and Kieran looked at the same day we looked

at this place before we moved here,

So I know where it is and what its like,

Its small very small but it will be ok for one person,

She also told me that she wont be allowed to take Oscar (the ginger & white cat)

** For those of you that don't know its only Minxy that is our cat**

And said she would have to rehome him!

I stopped her there..

The thought of splitting up Minxy & Oscar is heart breaking as it is,

the cats are best mates / lovers

they love each other, they wait for each other every morning,

depending who wakes up first the cat waits at the door for the other one to come out

Minxy goes mad every morning to go see Oscar

and same for him...

I could not split them up myself it would be too painful :(

So I stopped her there and asked where Oscar is going to go,

she told me her care/support worker might

have him if not she will have to rehome him..

(NO!)

I was not having that I told her we would have Oscar (without even asking Kieran HA)

I cant split them two up would be like splitting up Ant & Dec

**Its just not rite**

So when she moves we will be having Oscar, least we all know

he will be happy, settled, looked after & loved

She might be moving before Christmas if not it will be just after.

so we will be losing a housemate/friend but gaining Oscar..

I don't mind I'm happy about keeping Oscar here I hate the idea

of keeping them two apart its just, its not fair.

I will still she Trish at her new place or she will still come here,

so she will still see Oscar..

 

Okay!! it is very late I need to get up early tomorrow

as I got to get a train and go get my camera!!

**Woopieeee**

So I'm off to make a yummy Horlicks and get some zzz's

 

Keep Smiling, Take Care

** Kind People**

 

All the lovely people on UKS are still as I remember

Lovely!! very kind!! and well really supportive

I was a bit on edge about opening up and telling people where I went wrong

but I'm glad I did I don't want to be acting like I'm someone I'm not

I am who I am I have made a few mistakes and took the wrong path at times

but I am still me I'm back to myself now.

 

I have nothing against anyone who thinks bad of me for opening up on here

and telling people what I went through,

I understand all the bad words and thoughts you have had towards me

but I use to think what your thinking so I am not gonna let

any one get to me who is trying to make me feel bad for talking openly

on my own blog :)

so if you don't like me or what I have done and don't want to give me a

chance then don't read my blog, don't follow me like you say..

that's your choice people and I have nothing against your choice :)

I just hope you never make mistakes like I did.

 

But now back to the kind people on UKS

I asked for help to get back to crafting and the UKS members

have offered to help me, I am so grateful to them

it means so much to me that people are willing to help and that they have taken time

to come and read my blog to get to know me, and leaving

such kind, thoughtful and inspirational words and comments,

it really helps me get back on my feet and when I'm feeling down

I will go back to them words and remember all the support. 

So I just want to say a big thank you to all of you!!

 

I am so looking forward to tomorrow as I get my camera back YAY!!

at the moment my camera is in the worse place ever,

CASH CONVERTERS!!

The biggest con place going but I put it in there just under a year ago

when I had no money but because I had a habbit I never had the money spare

to get it out as I when I put it in there I asked for

£120 of them on buy back

so that meant to keep it in there every month I had to pay £39

to keep it of pay £169 to get it out but back then I never had the money spare

to get it out so I had to do whatever I could to carry it over another month

but fair play to my fiancé as he made sure every month that

we had the money to keep it.

But now I have the money to get it out!! YES at last!!

I cant wait to get my Olympus E420!!

I got it for my 18th birthday from my family, So I felt so bad

for putting it in cashys that's why I did not tell my family that it was in there

my mum knew (after a while) but I did not want my nan or my auntie knowing

but now I am getting it out we can take it down to see them

for Christmas and get some new pictures,

and get some pictures of me and my partner, as we have no

Pictures of us together yet!!

So I cant wait to get it tomorrow...

 

I will take some pictures soon and share them with you

Keep Smiling, Take Care

and get back to myself..

I started Card Making & Scrapbooking around 5 years ago, but because of all the

things that have happened in my life the last couple of years

I have not been able to do my crafting and I miss it.. oh I miss it so much

I use to love it I still do, I just need to get a new stash and start again really.

Now that I am settled in a new home with my partner I need to

get back to crafting I use to spend so much time

doing all sorts of crafty little things

trying now LO's and just trying new things altogether like boxes, books

candles and well just anything I could play around with and make look better

more interesting even with just a little bit of glitter

or ribbon.. oh I miss is so much I have to get back to it soon I really do

its like a whole part of my life missing ha ha

sounds mad huh?

if your a crafter you will understand you actually do get itchy hands :D

 

Im gonna go look around at some great crafty blogs I have found

**Chill Out Day**

 

I woke up early this morning after not getting much sleep at all because I have had a bad earache, but this morning the pain was too much to handle .. Earache is the worst pain (In my eyes)

Its all the way up there with toothache on the pain scale..

I just cant take earache its unreal.. But Ill live just ha ha

when I woke up the cats where up to mischief again, well Oscar (Ginger & White one below)

kept coming back under the cover with me for cuddles but Minxy (Tortoise shell one below)

had other ideas she was pouncing across me and my partner

while I'm trying not to wake him up she is pouncing on his legs the little moo

after a while I decided to get up feed them and let them run around the

house until me and Kieran get up

 (at this time I had plans to take pain killers and try get a little more zzz's)

 

While I was putting the food in the bowls they both decided to wait for there food by sitting on Kieran, so that woke him up *GREAT* so he wasn't best pleased

with them two, So I let them out after feeding them out and *tried* to get some sleep..

uh uh not gonna happen!! my earache just would not go away I tried and begged myself to

fall asleep, but nope, nothing, nadda, not gonna happen!!

So after a while decided to go down stairs and make a latte, rite then I looked in the mirror and decided that today is a day to chill out and maybe try and catch some zzz's at some point maybe??

More than likely not but hey you never know ha ha...

 

Drinking my latte I decided to finish writing my letter to the job centre to ask

for a review on there decision on my community care grant...

so I sat there and write 5 pages for them now all I need to do is write it up in neat..

at that point I seemed to feel like I could sleep.. (Yeah Rite!!)

As soon as my head hit the pillow Kieran woke up and put the TV on for

Saturday football *THANKS BABE*

My day went on like that from there I have spent most of the day on and off blogger

just looking around at different peoples blogs...

but now Im gonna get some zzz's (I need it ha!!)

 

Keep Smiling, Take Care

**Dont Judge Untill You Know Me**

I saw my new support worker for the first time yesterday,

she seems OK but will find out more if she does what she said she will.
 

Okay I think it is time to explain a little bit but I will say,
People can judge me all they want,
but only when they know me and know what I'm talking about.

 

Anyway where was I? oh yeah i see a support worker in a recovery agency as I

did have a drug addiction, nothing to be proud off and nothing I enjoyed,

but I did have a problem, I made a mistake of being curious and tried it

I wish I never but I did,

The first day I woke up ill and found out it was because I had a habit

was a nightmare. The first night I tried it I cried myself to sleep

so I don't understand or know why or how I ended up with a habit,

it winds me up just thinking about it but yeah..

anyway

The day I found out I was addicted I went straight to the recovery agency

to register and ask for a script so I can get off it.

I thought I would be able to get on a script straight away or

within a week or something like that,

boy was I wrong!!

I had to wait 5/6 months before I was on it

and during that time my habit got a lot worse more than what a lot

of peoples habits are that are addicted to the nasty stuff...

So I had to pay for it and to do that I had to get in trouble

I was shop lifting to feed my habit (which I did get arrested for)

But luckily for me with it being my first time in trouble I just walked away

with a caution, Well 3 cautions,
 that woke me up.
The day I got my script I was so happy

I dint understand it, it was amazing I can go to the chemist get given

these two little tablets, to dissolve under my tongue

(which literally tastes like a powdery tablet in your mouth but you cant swallow till they are all dissolved YUCK!!)

But they stop me being ill stop me needing that s**t.

 

After a while I knew I was beginning to be myself again, I did not look like a zombie ha ha

I still got a little way to go but its so good to be clean..
 

I don't really mind what people think as I use to think worse than what your thinking right now :)
Me and my fiancé are going to spend Christmas with family
I cant wait to go see them all its been while, the
last time I saw them was when I went down for my auntie Patsy's funeral
(R.I.P Pat Keep On Singing, Love You xXx)

So this time we are going down on a good note.. for Christmas!!
I have always spent Christmas with my family
the last 2 years I have not been able to go down for different reason
so I was determined that this year we are going
to see my family over Christmas...
To start of with my mother did not want us down for Christmas
moaning as normal saying she ain't doing Christmas this year (SCROOGE)
ha ha..
But only because she has not got a lot of money at the moment
but nor has anyone at the moment really
so I managed to talk her round :D
That's why I had to talk to my support worker to get my tablets
to take away over Christmas and she said it was fine thank god!!

I'm gonna go play bingo on the gala website for a little while :D
 so fingers crossed ha ha

might be back later :)

Take Care

pain i have put myself through or what i have been put through.

 

I have so much to say and to open up about but right now it is

 the cats settled for the night and get ready for bed.
