"Finally found someone to do fabrication work for me "
I won't pretend to know what that means, but the use of "finally" leads me to believe that it has taken some time to find this fabricator. Glad it worked out. |

"What made my week ? It's the little things really ..lots of little positives this week .. a lotto win would top it off (there has to be one BIG thing) "
Well, practicing gratitude for the little things definitely makes it easier to accept that a lotto win is unlikely for most... However, as they say, if you aren't in, you can't win. |

Likewise! Was deadly 
Oh, how lovely! Great to see two people on the same page. "
Incase there's any confusion we're not talking about the same coffee meet yesterday though I have had the pleasure of DD's company for one before  |

Ooohh, very nice! Great to have something to look towards. Now, is that a weekly game you play with yourself, or is there any rationale to such persistent changing? |

I disagree - the most nurtured grass is usually greener...  Haha, fair enough - I hope you find the best accommodation going! |

It's been one of those weeks, month even, in fact, make that the whole start of the year...sigh...
Looking at the positive - got my living room painted, thanks to himself helping, otherwise I'd still be at it.
Unfortunately it's been topped off with my daughter getting sick after an already acute crisis, I got cystitis and now my washing machine, Thumbelina, has finally crapped itself, with a load of wet laundry trapped inside - can't get the door open as the mechanism broke and there seems nothing I can do about it 
And I missed pancake feckin Tuesday  !
I think I'd just like to fast forward to next year, please  |

Oh, I hope the living room being painted is helping... What colour did you go for?
I am sorry to read that it has been such a tough week for you, not to mention tough start to the year. I hope that things improve for you & your family!  |

Oh, such friendships are to be treasured, where the other knows how much it helps to let it out and offers comfort. Hope things improve for you and the other type of moaning can be enjoyed, when you next meet. |

Oh, aren't you lucky to be having such a lovely week? Good for you! Oh, Thursday again, it seems to be the day of the week for surprises, going by this thread.
Oh, yes, I haven't shared. Actually, I have had a tough week/10 days, so not the best. However, creating & reading through this thread has been a highlight and, funnily enough, like you, I had a heartening Thursday eve. An unexpectedly real conversation, after a difficult day. |

Oh, good for you! Now, I am surprised, would being called out not equal more pay, or is an interrupted night's sleep simply worth more? |

I chose a teal kind of colour and absolutely love it! Now I just have to organise the finishing touches
And I just managed to sort out my washing machine - all by myself without help from anyone bar a YouTube video! And that makes my success even sweeter  .
Thank you for your well wishes. I'm usually more upbeat and even though things have been tough, there's always light at the end of the tunnel and lots of positive things are coming from bad situations.
I hope that your days will get easier too . Lovely to see this positivity on the forum! |

Oh, I'd say the teal is lovely! Amazing re. the washing machine - always such a huge sense of achievement, when you manage to get it sorted yourself.
You are more than welcome. I am glad to read that there are some positive outcomes in the mix.
Thank you, much appreciated. |
