Oh no, it is way more exciting than a water balloon and less wet on the part of the recipient (which would be me!!). There are some bath bombs that you can buy that when the finish fizzing release stars and things so you can have a bath with stars in it - of course then you have to pick them off you and you find them for days but it was fun at the time lol!

The ones we made weren't that great but it did turn my nephew purple later on that night apparently which he was delighted with and my sister not so!

H update, I sent the text last night saying that the weekend was fine and pre-warning him about the present and posted the gift yesterday so he should receive it. I haven't heard anything in response to it so I figure that perhaps he felt pressured again but there isn't really a lot I can do about that. Of course I realise that is assumed on my part and I don't know...

I just figure that if he wants to sell the house then he has to deal with his feelings about it, I can't do that for him. So I will detach and know that I feel ok about my actions and if it backfires then I shall know that I did what I knew to be right in my heart.

I've also realised that a lot of my tension about everything is to do with a feeling of being frightened of being a failure and having a failed marriage so I am going to try and work on some acceptance. I feel that when I find that I may be able to truly detach. Has anyone else experienced this anxiety of failure?

Hope everyone is having a good day. I just got given a lap top for work which I am very excited about!! I'm playing around with it at the moment!!
