She would come home and tell us about the people involved and how stupid they were and how obsessed with this wall and how, how does stuff like this tie up our justice system?!
I put up a little sign I got from the council saying I don't accept doorstep sellers and stuff, but recently the Red Cross were around and a lot of people stop by and ask for donations but I try and say I'll check out the website and see if I want to donate to the charity that way, but this Red Cross guy, he asked if he could come in and then he wanted a drink and he kept talking and talking and I just wanted him to go and he talked me into signing up for this monthly payment thing and I was getting really upset and I knew I shouldn't do it but I just wanted him to go, and when he was gone, I curled up on the floor and cried because I felt so stupid and useless, so I called my Mum and she thought my cat had died or something but when I'd explained it she went out and chased down the guy and got my form back and sorted it. I feel so incapable sometimes. I don't do well when I'm feeling pressured - I can't say no even though I want to and know I have to. Ugh, sorry for that ramble.

Oh, yes to what you said. It's so complicated.
