I am going to do a post this week and in it I am going to mention a couple of my pet hates, maybe things that people do not know about me, things that bug me, so instead of keeping it bottled up inside, I am going to let it out. If I get flak, well then that is my own responsibility.<br><br>I had a break away from journals earlier in the year because I was feeling rough.
