    yeah he is....

    its just really get me down now. i dont know what im doing anymore, it all feels like its spiralling, to the point that dh has been using his credit card to buy food because he cant survive on his wage...

    i really need for his police re-application or his fire service application to come up trumps.....
    Might try and rope him into some ebay selling tomorrow.... we need to do something earn money...

    You poor thing. Things sound very stressful at the moment for you both. Is there anyway your OH could take a weekend bar job, on a temporary basis, until things get a bit better.

    Good cry usually works for me!

    If your not feeling well in yourself (physically) you should really go and see someone though. What about the people you work with, that is alternative medicine isn't it? Can you see someone there?

    yeah i know ive got a blockage going on in my nerve flow in my neck, so i know what it is but it takes time to correct, and we're not there for a week so my sessions get caught up when we go back. Just need to make sure i do my exercises whilst im off.....

    i think this week has mainly been because my body is fuelled on adrenaline and action and then as soon as i stop, it all comes out... literally LOL.... and i think the milk i used this morning was off as well.... really didnt help!

    I can relate to that. I used to be running around in previous jobs and would always be sick when I was on hols. It was like when my whole body relaxed, I always got sick.

    Have you anything nice planned for the rest of your week off?

    just spending time with the puppy and dh really.
    i ordered some tile transfers for the kitchen so if they turn up i can do those either friday or saturday whilst dh is at work......

    ive got to learn to be patient though, i want to do everything now, and may just have to accept that some things will just have to wait from now on....
