    pigpen I hope you werent studying until 4am! How did Hazel get on last night when you let her out of the cage? Is she getting stronger?
    Penpen thanks for the pm -that sounds like a lovely day out - hope the weather is good.
    Morning Aunty Crafty I am much better at taking my tablet now that I know there is someone else doing it too - silly isnt it??:rolleyes: have you been sorting out your reading/ studying and taking it step by step?
    Morning SSL I am impressed - well done to you both- tiling is something I dont enjoy doing!
    fedup well done for getting started this morning - going in the garden is a good idea - fresh air will help clear your head and if its sunny that will help too. keep pottering but dont be hard on yourself - you are bound to keep thinking about the split - its still very raw yet - huge (((hugs))) xx
    Holly you sound chirpy this morning - is DS feeling better?
    Dusty - hows your bite today - I hope you are on the mend honey.

    have a great day everyone.
    back later
    toots xx
    Peace will be mine
    could do better - must try harder
    Live each day as if its your last

    The police aren't interested even when I suggested it could be a child next time!!

    Hazel just wants food!! lol and to be set free from her cage. Toots I never let her out last night, I gave her the painkilling medicine and she got all wobbly and sleepy.. so I left her. Now I know that's how she reacts I'll get the others in earlier and let her out then.. or I may let her free in a room I can close the doors so she can't escape.

    Morning peeps

    Have had a lovely lie in this morning and am off to find some breakfast and another brew in a minute. Little doogie has come for a cuddle so has been sat on my lap while I quickly skimmed through the thread from yesterday.

    toots - hope you manage to get the carers to do some decent meals in the time that they have, must be hard for you. Thanks for asking about OH and I. I am coping although do have panic attacks occasionally. He actually has his disciplinary hearing tomorrow so I will be asking for 'please let him keep his job vibes' later.
    fedupandskint - hugs for you, its always sad when two people split, try and focus on something positive, like what you have gained from it rather than what you have lost.
    holly - sounds like an awful incident your DS2 had, is he ok and do you know what set it off.

    I know there are more but head is still a bit fuzzy so apologies and hugs and positive vibes for everyone else.

    I have decided I am going to have a lazy morning, as there are clear blue skies outside today and I really need to take it easy and not stress about tomorrow or whats not done round here. I have work this afternoon so as the house looks ok (well apart from the rooms that look like rubbish bins - spare rooms 1 & 2, our room and DD's room but heh no-one sees them!) all I am going to do is sort the laundry pile possibly make some Twinks and sit in the garden.

    Off to find some brekkie now so see catch you all later

    Kaz x

    LL that sounds like a lovely plan and I envy you - we'd like to be out on our Wing but bit difficult with DD! Enjoy your day
