Silly Me

[emmie]

have been scrolling through Amazon to find a small table
that i saw last year. I know i should have bought it at the time, but I didn't.
are there any regrets you have, like i wished i had bought that or this,
or done this or that..

Many.

I wish I'd never joined AB, takes up way too much of my time :)

[emmie]

such as danny, and by the way i sent back the turbo scrub, and got my money back...

[hc4361]

emmie, what happened with the turbo scrub? Why didn't you like it?

[dannyk13]

Emmie, too many to mention but all relate to things done in life.

it didn't work, and one of the heads got so mangled that it was unusable, and i wasn't going to get replacement heads, not more money wasted.

I generally wish I didn't over analyse things, that's the path to making yourself super miserable even in very good situations. Equally I wish I didn't accept remarkably low standards from those I love. You'd think the two would balance themselves out but they don't, but then perhaps that just the typical Catholic guilt and Jewish neurosis of my heritage :) x
I also wish I'd bought two pairs of my favourite Red or Dead boots , the first pair looking a bit sorry after 5 years of wear now, and they don't make the same ones any more :)

I missed out on a private numberplate which was my initials and date of birth (first letter of month and date) for the sake of £250.
But I’ve since bought one which is my DoB and a shortened version of my name. So alls well. ;-)

Thanks, emmie, I was tempted to buy one but I've bought too many things that didn't live up the advert

[emmie]

it doesn't live up to anything, danny's is in the cupboard i believe, 50 quid for nothing, still as i said they gave me a refund which was good.

my brother and sister in law have their names on their car, i thought it a bit twee but they like it, so thats what counts.

Marrying my first husband, should have developed a career instead.
Not buying a dining table and chairs from a charity shop when I saw it, by the time I walked back to the shop it had been snapped up. It was a beautiful blond wood with subtle inlay. Sort of art deco. Stunning. As you can see I am more upset about the table.

[emmie]

rowan but you found love did you not??

[rowanwitch]

Yes, and I don't regret that for a second even though it came with a huge lifetime repayment plan.

[emmie]

when Mr Em died i went totally to pieces, but after a hospital stay i felt that i could face the world again, though it was a huge loss, so i know just how you feel.

[emmie]

can't find the table i was looking for, too many choices i think...
