hi all, hope all is well and getting thier/better for you all.
im not too bad, days off gone too quick.
feeling bit low generally and not helped by feeling left out, as id like to do certain things with friends, ive said a few times about it to one or two of them and thier doing them without me amongst other things like this.
will probably have to try and have a word with them.

Typical, the weather turns nice & I'm stuck in with a really sore throat & bad chest. I feel quite washed out at the minute & I look quite washed out as well.

Finally got round to writing a letter to the therapist I was seeing at MIND. I tried to write it as I saw the situation, I just hope he can offer me some different options.

Have cut my tablets down by half over the past couple of weeks & am going to try and see my GP this week with a view to changing them. I've never found the tablets to be helpful, in fact, I think they may have been making me feel worse.

Well hope people are feeling better & everyone try and enjoy the weather.

Hi guys!
Morning all - how is everyone?
I'll start the day by sending a sincere Tiffy to tmvenn (t) and arranm (arran)! You're both most welcome guys and your posts are much appreciated.
And I have to say how great it is to see the return of sazzy, shaz, beth, gem and katie-tulip, to name but a few. I was getting worried because it was starting to look like you'd all run away when I started posting again, - and I knew it couldn't be down to my deodorant or nuffink 'cos I went through the sheep dip last month so I'm nice and clean.
It was the same with our miro too - we never seem to be able to synchronise our posts and I was afraid that you'd all start to think that we were really just the same person!

Right then - Monday...
Well, DS has been safely dispatched back to London and I'm actually missing the little tyke something awful, although in this case, the ''little tyke'' is about 6ft 1''. Thankfully, he's doing well atm and he possibly has siome big ''end of year'' performances in the offing, so I is a muchly proud Tiffster. It was a nice visit because he couldn't fit his PS3 into his suitcase and so he had to spend a lot of time actually sitting in the same room as me.
On the down side, he couldn't tame the garden for me because he has really chronic hayfever. The gardener/handyman that I'd booked for last Monday for the first time, said he'd got an urgent plumbing job on and would come on the Tuesday instead. Anyone want to guess as to which day it poured down with rain?! I phoned him up mid-morning Tuesday and he said he was just going to call me..... ?.....and that obviously he wouldn't be able to do the work that day and that he'd come over next Monday, (today). It's a shame he missed out on the other 5.5 days of tropical weather that we had for the rest of the weekl! He's just set up as a self-employed handyman/gardener ''available 24/7'' and as I'm a strong believer in fate, methinks that his track record with me so far doesn't bode well for an appearance today. And, of course, the rain clouds are gathering as I speak. Meanwhile, the parent birds are re-enacting the 'Battle of Britain' in an effort to secure the best offerings lurking in my garden - they're quite vicious with each other and their flight paths are awesome.

God, my life's exciting!

Apologies for the inane offerings recently but Big Stuff is in the pipeline as it were, so watch this space. I'll try and post replies as soon as I can.
Be kind to yourself guys.
Much Love,
Tiff xxx

flis21, your m-i-l sounds a right tyrant. Could you get him a potty, then if he does take his nappy off, tell him it's where big boys do their wees and cos he's a big boy/big brother he can wee in the potty if he wants

ETA: *pulls hair out* Need to stop giving advice I wouldn't listen to (not you flis...your mil is a tyrant) Why do I give advice bu then never fricking listen to it myself, am i just a thicko or something.....obviously as i know i cant deal with life...!!!!!!

Hi All,

Really bad weekend and today has not been great either. Hubby has been working for last 5 days, but thank goodness now has 2 days off. I really need him at home.

On Sunday we went to my friends little boy's christening and DS1 was a nightmare, he screamed all through the service, then at the do afterwards he kept trying to pull everything off the buffet table and run out of the door everytime someone came in or out. I left after 40 mins as I couldn't cope with him like that anymore!!

Was talking to health visitor yesterday and she said the problem is I've got myself in a cycle where I'm just telling DS1 off, clearing up whatever carnage he has caused, then dealing with DS2's needs (feeding, nappy changing etc.) then DS1 does something else while I'm doing that so I begin again with the telling him off. I need to try and give DS1 more positive attention and I know that, but it's really hard to find the time. Also (and this is harder to admit) I don't always want to as he's been such a pain in the bum recently. I know that's horrid and it's not his fault, he's only 2 and obviously picking up on the way I'm feeling at the moment etc. It can't be nice for him being here with me like this all the time. Family Outreach Worker is coming again on Thursday and DH is going to be here so we can discuss DS1's behaviour and how to manage it better, amongst other things.

I feel really low again, but not been too tearful which is good, hopefully shows the meds are starting to kick in (been on them for 2.5 weeks now).

Love n hugs to all xxxxx
