Absolutely classic. Yeah, the kids..."Bad head day"<br /><br />Absolutely classic. Yeah, the kids are switched on, and will inherit the kingdom of God...<br /><br />Good luck with the rehab... Funny thing, last time I checked in the Amy Winehouse song had just come out and I laughed listening to it on the way.... And did a runner the next day...<br /><br />In the end, to really really quit, a radical displacement is the answer, I think... Immigration...

Very mature that. <br /><br />I understand what you say about cold beers and the summer. Most of my life revolves around drinking currently. It's hard for me to imagine watching a football game in the fall without a beer, but I know I need to change the way I think.<br /><br />You are loved, Naomi. Please keep us all posted as much as you are able. I will keep a good thought for you.<br /><br />Love, SB.Sarcastic Bastardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17116577711704241625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7661422228326986311.post-24123973729632929442009-05-06T17:11:00.000+01:002009-05-06T17:11:00.000+01:00ooohhh!

More clothesmaking/pattern links for you to check out (hope haven't got it all wrong and boring you)...<br /><br />http://www.agelesspatterns.com/<br />Only accept American currency/American accounts.<br />Very Victorian. I love the bodices, basques and corsets. That could be adapted to modern clothing a la Vivienne Westwood. The jackets are rather fetching too. Don't have to look like an extra from a Bronte film, I like the idea of taking details from these patterns and applying to modern clothes.<br /><br />http://users.tinyworld.co.uk/sidesaddlelady/<br /><B>UK-based</B> vintage pattern shop<br /><br />http://www.oldpatterns.com/<br />Go in via right hand side pattern picture. Not well designed site.<br /><br />http://www.pastpatterns.com/<br /><br /><br />http://trulyvictorian.com/catalog/catalog1.html<br /><br />Any chance we can see some of your creations? You said you made something the other week but it was too small. Would still be nice if you posted a photo of it and anything else.<br /><br />x Kellykellylebellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08321429321979125611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7661422228326986311.post-60435998558007596452009-05-06T12:43:00.000+01:002009-05-06T12:43:00.000+01:00Quitting drugs is hard, but you can do whatever yo...Quitting drugs is hard, but you can do whatever you want. I know that sounds gay, but it's true. I'll write ya in rehab if ya want, although I'm way over here in the USA. :)<br /><br />Good luck.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06750255411962184420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7661422228326986311.post-13451354422586501042009-05-06T09:16:00.000+01:002009-05-06T09:16:00.000+01:00I want to cry for you.

Like I said, I had to go through the suicide attempt to get some form of therapy. What if I had been successful. A lot of people who manage to commit suicide don't expect it to work, they're crying... no screaming for help.<br /><br />The alcohol is more damaging than the b. Are you in rehab for both?<br />My drinking has gone up mainly when I'm not tooting and on my subs script. It's as though I want to feel different. Feeling 'normal' spooks me. Also I think I feel uncomfortable in my own skin. Do you know what I mean? I get the feeling you would.<br /><br />I would love to be in touch. Any support. I am an addict yes, but I'm no user where people are concerned. In fact one of my friends said 'the problem with you Kelly is that you're too nice'.<br /><br />I've been 'let down' by other addicts before but I think I had this naive notion (and still do I suppose) that we're all in this together. We can relate a lot of experiences that others (outside) can't and often don't want to.<br />I suppose I expected some sort of <br />camaraderie.<br /><br />Anyway, rest assured you can trust me, I do everything unconditionally. I live in East London so yes I am UK based. My email is kellyalsaleh <I>at</I> tiscali.co.uk (obviously use the at symbol). You can email the address there if you find you can only use snail mail.<br /><br />Phew, lots to say but gotta work. Only other thing wanted to mention was <B>sewing and dressmaking</B>. I'm totally rubbish at it but love it all the same and wish I could learn. I've got a sewing machine but something is wrong with the lower bobbin (under the needle bit). There's a fab website for patterns called the Vintage Pattern Lending Library<br />http://www.vpll.org/<br />They've got gorgeous patterns from eras; 1840 through 1950. They're copies of the originals. I think you'll love it. I ordered a few and although they're US-based, they were very reliable and fast.<br /><br />Have you considered a career in fashion/costuming? I know you were going back to college/Uni but didn't know what course. Best to try and do something that you love. That way there will come a point were you won't let anything take it away from you - not even b or booze.<br /><br />I wish you the best best best of luck and well done. Big gigantic hug.<br /><br />take care<br />xx Kellykellylebellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08321429321979125611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7661422228326986311.post-3904111244023878062009-05-06T08:35:00.000+01:002009-05-06T08:35:00.000+01:00Hey Naomi, good for you to get the rehab place.
