@Faith-and-Hope Oh yes dizzy ok. Glad you have some me time, boy do you deserve it. Have a good day.

[Faith-and-Hope]

Thanks @Maggie ..... you too ..... 💕

Most of my stuff was situational, and having been raised by a mother, who was raised by a mother with undiagnosed, untreated mi, she taught me a lot of coping skills that helped to carry me through, and still do ......

Sooo grateful for that now.

Lovely sunshine here this morning, but not hot.

I am really cold even though I am rugged up @Former-Member Have a GP appointment today so at least I will be warm for half an hour or so  Have to laugh at tat otherwise I will cry again! Hopefully 'heat pump man' can get one here quickly and I won't have to wait too much longer to have heat again!

Hello my dear @Faith-and-Hope@Zoe7@Maggie

Sounds incredibly cold down there @Zoe7. I remember the harshness of such temps and it's not for the faint of heart. When I first moved onto our property down South in similar temps I had a cold for one year straight as I was climatising. The wind chill factor was the hardest to endure and work in. I hope that repair man gets there today and you do t have to go through another night of such extremes. Keep rugged up! Let us know how you get on xx💕

@Faith-and-Hope - you do have your hands full. You are doing a great job. You were so blessed to have had such a wise, loving mother whom taught you the life skills to cope. You must miss her a lot. 🤗🌹xx

Hi @Maggie

Yes, I was pleased with my daughter's efforts but today she is in a bad mood. She asked me to take her for work which I replied I was too sick too (I have trouble driving with a headache). She yelled at me and has threatened not to go in. It has really upset me and made me feel guilty. Hopefully the move will still be amicable. I am so vulnerable to hurt from her.

I also can't get to the framing shop today for same reason. Hopefully we can pick up my angel tomorrow. Glad to read that you were out and about in the garden. I a man looking forwards to seeing the pics as it grows. It is hard to concentrate on stitching sometimes - but like you I feel better when I give it a try. I haven't been able to stitch for awhile now and I miss it.

Do you have your fence up yet? How are the fur babies going? It's nice to receive such unconditional love. Wish people were all like that - wouldn't it be wonderful. 

I hope to get to my volunteering on Wednesday. There are still some dramas going on there too, but need to get back into the swing of things. My daughter has really effected me today as I feel so down. I always feel threatened that I will lose her. Perhaps I should of driven her - but now she is unapproachable and just yells at me. I Hope your day is better than mine. And tomorrow is a new day. Thank you all for your friendship. ❤️

@Former-Member Sorry your daughter is in a bad mood. I get affected by things like that also, it kicks the bottom out from under you. You are not well, another disadvantage atm, as well as a sick hubby. Can you do something small for yourself today. I always find a hot shower does wonders, along with a smelly powder or perfume or both.

I did wonder if Angel might miss out today, but she'll be happy when she finally arrives home.

Yes the love of fur babies is just the best. My little visitor takes herself off to my bed once she's had something to eat, just coming out for toilet duties. Lol.

Raining, windy and cold here today. Not much happening with me, I feel bed calling, but fur baby doesn't like bed during the day. I hope you manage to rest. Thinking of you. Warm hug

Thank you @Maggie - I do have a bad dose of the blues today. I told my daughter she hurt me. She said not to come and visit her because I am crazy. So she can still be cold and turn at the drop of a hat.  I am so sick of being held to ransom with grief. I am tired of the pain and the tears and the threats. I just want to be free of it all one day.  Not a good day. Your photo is not visible this end yet - is it a garden pic? Look forward to seeing it 💕xx

[Maggie]

@Former-Member You do sound very down. Your daughter has no right saying nasty things like that. She's old enough to know better, she does know how to hurt you. Can you keep out of her way today? You need TLC not insults. It will be a good day when she has moved and you have your space. Please try to do something small to stop your mind going over and over it, that will continue to hurt you. You know you are special don't you? Do you feel like listening to some music or a good book for distraction? 

I forgot to say that the fence isn't up yet, but should be in the next few weeks. Then fur babies are safe and sound.

You take care. Here to talk if you want to. Warm thoughts.

Promise of things to come @Former-Member

[Faith-and-Hope]

Yes @Former-Member ..... I do miss her. I know that a lot of who I am has come from her though, and I have a quiet giggle when I find myself coining a phrase that was hers.

She was very wise.
