I'm more interested in the eyeshadows myself, only want Scandelicious kissable lipcolour, but either way, it's nice to have a breather between all these collections.
We pay our bills (gas, water, electricity) by direct debit each month, so we don't get a huge shock in the winter, evens it out nicely.

My sentiments exactly. Try adding 3 children to the mix too! We're having major problems with our middle one and it's stressing me out so much, it's unreal.

i adore play it proper!
yes i remember you mentioning she has been difficult recently. what is going on with her? just general bad behaviour? i used to go through stages when growing up - i could be the sweetest girl and then at other points i was making my mum cry because i was so bad! not good of me at all! me and nick aren't having children though so i won't experiance that kind of issue for myself.

I remember being a little terror at points as a kid too - sure I drove my mum round the bend, but it all worked out OK. I really sympathise with you though, can't imagine how hard that must be. We used to have our gas on direct debit but we had to cancel it for a couple of months over one summer when my other half was unemployed (not that we were using much anyway) and then BG failed to set it up again when we asked. Then this time they failed to send us a bill for 6 months despite us sending them 4 metre readings, and then sent us a letter demanding £400 with menaces. Boyfriend called them and managed to get half of of written off, plus a dual fuel direct debit for this year which should save us a few bob. They're crediting us £40 at the end of the year too to apologise. So a pretty good result really - but I'm now poor, good job I didn't want much from these collections! Peacocky is another matter though - the rouge allure lacques are my favourites so I can't wait to try the MAC version. And no matter how hard I try to whittle it down I still want three of the mega metal shadows, so I think this is going to be one big collection splurge!

I'm not sure whether to feel happy or sad that the two pigments I wanted have sold out. I hate that you always get the money when you don't actually need it!
And as for bills, I'm quite glad I still live with the family else I'd really stress out with all this bad weather.. hopefully it'll warm up soon though

I don't really know what's wrong with her, it's her behaviour as well as very bad mood changes, so now we're thinking she might be depressed or bi-polar or something. We have a paediatric appointment for beginning of February, but it's still 4 weeks to go and we are at our wits' end. She doesn't want to get dressed, go to school, eat, have bath, go to bed, but it's not just bad behaviour, because she's also desperately unhappy and cries all the time. The she gets angry and tells us she wants us all dead, but then she'll be drawing pictures for us and tell us she loves us. Very confusing and unpleasant for everyone. She used to be the sweetest, happiest little girl, but now she's so different, angry, nasty, spiteful, unhappy, and she's only 6. We really need help, but the NHS are being bloody useless, we were refused an appointment with the mental health services because either my GP screwed up the referral or they misunderstood, but we were told since her problems are only at school (we have major problems at school too, but not JUST at school), she should be referred by the school to the educational psychologist, but of course that takes bloody forever too. So we waited 4 weeks to be told no appointment, so I had to go back to the GP and ask him to do it again, this time we got a paed appt with the behavioural specialist, but since Christmas her mood has changed so much, it's now really worrying me that she's depressed or bi-polar or something.
oh dear. yes that does sound very worrying and upsetting for you all. i hate how slow the nhs is at sorting things out. i'm sorry that you have to wait so long for an appointment. i hope that perhaps things get a little better for her and that she can calm down a little.I don't really know what's wrong with her, it's her behaviour as well as very bad mood changes, so now we're thinking she might be depressed or bi-polar or something.

I really keep my fingers crossed that they sort things out for you. I'm glad you've got an appointment with a behavioural specialist & if they fob you off, request a referral to the CAMHS team (child adolescent mental health services) and see what they think. If she does have 'mental health problems', try not to worry too much (I know that's easy for me to say when I'm sat here at my laptop), its only a label & I promise you, people can live a perfectly normal life with that label. At least you've discovered the problem early & you're prepared to do something about it, a lot of people would either put it down to bad behaviour & deny any problem. I think it's an amazing thing that you're doing, keep your chin up & hold onto the belief that things will get sorted.

My eldest, who is now 16, has Aspergers Syndrome. I had been telling the doctors for years that I felt something wasn't quite 'right' and got fobbed off with "He'll grow out of it" all the time, until one day I saw a locum doctor at our surgery, and he referred us to CAMHS. It took a long time, going through multiple tests, but we eventually got the diagnosis. They don't automatically offer you any help after that, though - you have to specifically ask for it.
He can seem quite badly behaved at times, especially with his temper and his refusal to do certain things. It is rare that I can even get him to leave the house, so I understand how you feel about your daughter being thought badly behaved when in fact it may be something out of her control

Wow, thank you for your lovely replies. I didn't really want to bring my problems onto this forum as make up is one of my escape mechanisms, but I am really touched by the kind replies and feel a bit better about it. We've had a really crap day, although she was lovely and happy in the morning (bit too happy actually considering how upset she was last night, she was crying for ages about how rubbish her life is) and was preparing to go to one of her friend's party, then got really angry because my husband broke a jar in the kitchen and I shouted at them not to come in (they all wanted to check it out, but there was bits of glass all over the place) and then refused to go to the party. She screamed at me for ages, told me I'd spoilt her day (and life), then cried that she's missed the party, her emotions were just all over the place. She spent the whole day in her pyjamas as she wouldn't get dressed, had no supper, wrote nasty songs about her little brother, but then was very sweet and good at bath time and is now in bed, although not asleep yet. I've had the worst headache all day and was really irritable, which is of course not good for the other two either.
It was CAMHS that fobbed us off, but I'm going back to our GP on Monday because she's really changed since mid-December, so maybe we can be referred to them again as well as paed. Thanks again everyone!

Sorry to hear about your family problems, it sounds ever so distressing.
In other news, if anyone wants some MAC that's sold out - Selfridges have several pieces online - I just ordered Siahi fluidline! Wahey! Soiree is still sold out, as are the paintpots I think. I didn't expect Mickey Contractor to be up on there!
