Sleeponitsleeponitsleeponit

You know when you write a response, and then think 'can't send that' but you really, REALLY, want to?

Giving advice is the most tempting thing in the world. It wasn't asked for. It won't be appreciated. I know from past experience that only true friends can stand that sort of feedback, and this is not a true friendship. It could be, one day. If I shut up now.

I know I should sleep on it. I KNOW I should. But that impulse to press *send* is very nearly overwhelming.

I should probably go mow the wilderness which is my lawn and do some housework first. grin Then re-read it. Then sleep on it. Then re-read it tomorrow. I know if I do, I will end up scrapping it.

But I really want to send it! devil

LAN, I can resist anything but temptation ... laugh
Hi Redex, nice to meet you!

Maybe by tomorrow I will be ready to break off a tiny corner and send that instead rolling on the floor laughing
Candy - I'm not sure it's constructive. That's what worries me! We're talking a blunt opinion that wasn't asked for ... conversing

This is helping. The urge is subsiding!
hahahaha viv you cracked me up there hahaha!! all these miles away and we can make others smile, wonderful
im sat thinking of choccy as I have a few lionbars in the cupboard but the headaches are back and choccy gives me migrane if too much so øv!

".....and lead us NOT "into temptation"
Biff confused never underestimate your opinion,because what might seem like useless information or suggestion,or as a matter of fact out of context will make whatever it is you need to spit out a valued point. dunnoYou might save the situation,and if this person is a true freind now is the time to find out angel
Candy, sending it is 99% likely to end the friendship, such as it is. Do we all have so many friends we can afford to blow one out of the water? But, is it even worth keeping if it is so superficial?

confused

Off to mow the lawn now.
Biff do you need superficial friendsconfused surely not,you seem like a nice person so dont sweat,as I said if this was a true friend then you should not feel guilty,it will only confirm what you needed to say.All the blogger love you so applause cheering heart beating have a guilt free week-end without any toxic energy

" The only thing you can do with advice is to pass it on,
you certainly can't use it yourself."laugh
scold yes you can I always said be careful to others,and as much as I tried I just fell back on my own advice with a red face of course and a bruised ego rolling on the floor laughing
I gave myself advice to stay on this Blog, I won't get

Where has Elegs gone, Vacuuming?laugh

"Let me Sleep on it." - Paradise by the dashboard light. M. loaf.head banger
Z, Cat, Candy, nooooo it is not a public comment! No point sleeping on those overnight, the blogs have vanished into history by then laugh

You know me, always publicly polite. Well, okay, not always. Sometimes? Occasionally? blues rolling on the floor laughing

Anyway, I have decided to stick with the superficial friendship for now and keep my priceless advice to myself. What the hell. Just like Pedal (and Oscar) said, no-one ever takes advice anyway.
Pedal, I'm regrouping before vacuuming. Refreshment must be taken. It is summer, and HOT.

The lawn is mowed, and now my neighbours can stop walking back and forth tutting over the way I am letting down not just myself, not just my garden, but the whole street. hole

I wish grass didn't grow so fast, and I wish weeds would go plague someone else, but no denying it does look good when it finally gets done! joy
Legs,

just press the send button...get it done and over with...geez!doh laugh


If it's me...I'll just press that button and say "there, I said it, what now?!" and anticipate the consequences...laugh
Legs,

Forget Spain...men there are overly romanticlaugh

come here, I'll take you to Dead Sea...so many gorgeous men floating therelaugh
a dip there will do a lot of good on that swollen ankle...thumbs up grin
Just to clarify - the floaters in the Dead sea are alive, right? rolling on the floor laughing

In which case, you're on. Checking flights to Jordan.

(The ankle's doing okay, thanks! Seems to have decided summer is over and it can go back to winter shape)
Very much alive! Pack some good books...

we're having a great summer here...Oct-Nov will still be perfect for Dead Sea...amazing sunsets here too

£372 return flight - hmmmmmmmmmmmmm - you realize Spain costs about a 3rd of that, right? And that my main reason for going is to load up on my legal allowance of duty free cigarettes (3200) at a 3rd of the UK price?

But it looks AMAZING wow
Spain sounds like a well planned trip...but knows? You might get bored sometime and impulsively book a flight here...just let me knowgrin

Men here love blondes...grin
I'm a redhead, but that usually works too. devil
Yep, a Red head works.thumbs up
Hi Pedal wave

I MISS turning heads. Every other person here in Scotland is a red. It's way more fun in countries where they're rarer!
Legs,

You'll turn many heads here...just don't walk on busy streets...could cause a bad trafficgrin
You would be fine here, every other Woman is Blonde. Hair
colouring is a sport.
CH, no traffic accidents when you're fifty-something. The most I get is a few gents walking into lampposts but hey, I take what I can get devil
Pedal, if I come visit you, will you make me ride a bike, or will you get a tandem?

We'd both look sweet
Upon the seat
Of a bicycle built for two ...

And yup, my bestie is in Vancouver, she's a natural butter-blonde. We used to mow 'em down back in our teens. And twenties. And thirties. Hell, we caused some havoc among the dads at my daughter's wedding last year! SUCH fun. rolling on the floor laughing
thumbs up Very good. I did that when I was Selling, paint a
mental picture and then give two choices.laugh laugh
The bikes, or the two mature hell-raisers? rolling on the floor laughing
