i could do with a cheer up!! everyone says ''theres allways someone worse off than you''......well im that person!!lol so im sure to make some of you happier when you hear about my last few months..
sept 16th came of my motor bike in wet weather,in hospital for 3 days..surgery then 5 weeks off work!!
flat broke as sick pay is useless!
behind 2 months on my morgage and other bills..
then my collie had pups and we lost one for the first time ever!at 5 days old
NEXT... my 30 year old shetland collapsed and had to be PTS by the emergency vet in the evening..£110.26 later(still havnt paid that one!)
then my work messed my wages up and missed 3 weeks sick pay so i got a weeks wages on pay day and went over the overdraft costing me £5 a day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Then to top it off when i was hanging onto hope (just) our 4x4 blew up on thursday and i ran out of pig food etc on friday!!!!!

Oh Dear!! I think we all have periods like that - I can think of a couple I've been through in past years. Just need to see the light at the end of the tunnel sometimes. Let hope thats it now, and things will start to improve for you. Chin up and keep smiling ;D ;D :wave:

Reading between the lines I think you are keeping your sense of humour - if you don't laugh, you cry. ::) Please don't cry - just keep on ranting at us. We'll understand! I thought things came in threes - but that isn't three that's a shed load! Good luck MUST come your way soon.

Sometimes everything seems to go wrong but a lot of the time its our own doing!!!!
I have sooooo many days like, it certainly Peees you off BIG time and then some good days come, so you are due a lot of good days.
I felt the light aircraft that crashed yesterdy carrying an organ must have been double bad look for the doner, they died, maybe in a crash, only to have thier organ removed and made useless due to another crash, now that IS u nlucky!!!!!!!!

I thought they managed to save it and use it?

Our dishwasher stopped working then (after days of hand washing dishes) when we finally fixt it fridge door fell off :(

Imagine - I've always been washing my dishes by hand although a dishwasher's been waiting in the shed (it's complicated, the plumbing apparently ::) ::). The fridge is annoying, could you fix it? At least it's cold enough - you could keep your food outdoors... :):&>

LMP ! you have my sympathies.
i nearly put a *rant* on last week. things were getting me really down...it has been an horrible year.
firstly i had surgery on my shoulder last december, which didnt go to plan. I am still off work with permenant nerve damage (my arm aches all the time, my hand feels it has been rubbed with nettles, and i have lost the dexterity in my hand.) i am an anaesthetic nurse...and am now not safe to practice!!!! sick pay ran out in September.
In february i lost my wonderful arab x welsh cob to colic. The blood supply to his gut just shut down...nothing could be done for him...PTS 5th Feb... I still miss him dreadfully even though i have a new girl, Hetty.
then in June, whilst at camp America, my daughter developed kidney problems. She has FSGS...her immune system is destroying her kidneys :-( this is at best life changing, at worst life threatening..she is only 19. Last year it was reactive arthritis- she was crippled for months! My beautiful daughter is the female version of Benjamin Button. she has so many old lady tablets to take - last count > 20 per day.
we have had various cats and dogs PTS this year....
My grandma (95yrs) is causing us a lot of concern at the moment because she goes completely off the rails at night time and screams the Residential home down... they have tried meds but that makes her worse....she is going to end up being moved into a psych unit or worse.....she is just very very scared of dying...(strong as an ox, so it isnt going to happen any time soon). So my Mum is trying to sit up all night wiht her AND carry one with her holiday cottage business during the day....this cant continue. Mum is >70 and has had breast cancer, skin cancer and was in intensive care for three weeks with bowel problems...all in the last ten years.
On the bright side; i have lost > 1 stone due to worry and stress. I live in the most wonderful place in the whole world, and i am Pollyanna by nature - so IT WONT BEAT ME!!
My little rant over - sorry for the highjack... XXXXxxx
