    Hehe, reckon I would be great at the saucy chat thing!

    I don't think you earn much though - a friend of mine used to do it. (hello there btw ;) :wave:).

    I am very tired this morning, didn't get to sleep until 3.30am, and then Natasha woke up at 5.30am.

    Not doing very well with the 'no crying all day' challenge I set myself, but really must try harder as my eyes are red raw....ouch!


    Hey there is nothing wrong with a good cry Snaggles, its our release valve, I use mine regularly:rolleyes: ...........everything seems worse when you are exhausted though.

    Snaggles hun you must be exhausted. Go and get some optrex (or cheaper supermarket own brand) that will really help your eyes.

    I think your target is too hard at the moment. How about 2 hour slots.

    I was quite good yesterday - I went for 14 hours in a row with no tears, until I started thinking about something I shouldn't have thought about, and suddenly I was a right snotty, teary mess.

    I think 2 hour slots will be all I can manage today though. Weird how you think you are coping better, and then suddenly, for no reason, it all seems crap again. But I'm okay. :o At least the kids are home now. :A

    I need to get a few practical things sorted today, maybe that will help me sleep a bit better.

    Snags, I kind of know you a little bit and if I thought you were getting through this without crying you would not be the person you are.....sweet and caring...

  • Snaggles - hugs to you. I've done my fair share of crying this year, still not quite finished, just sort of creeps up on you. Just remember to drink lots of water to rehydrate, and moisturise those cheeks some palmers cocoa butter :)
