Thank you Honey Bear0 -
Kazmeister Thanks for understanding, I am sympathetic to OH really but sometimes the frustration just builds up too much. His depression can sometimes come across as selfishness, although I (think) I know that is not how it is intended.

Thats exactly how it feels here sometimes. I feel like I am walking on eggshells at times just trying to keep it all together for everyone else and sometimes I have to 'back off' to try and stop myself being dragged down too. Its hard but I love him more than ever and I know that he will come right again. Fingers crossed for you.
Johanne - well done

Evening all,
Well done Johanne you've done a great job.:j
I haven't even looked at todays list let alone done any of it. It was my last day at college today and we had chinese & cheesecake yummmmm. I came home with a headache though:rolleyes: so didn't do anything when i got home.
OH did take all the bags for car boot up to the attic for me , Ds1 tidied the living room and i moved a plastic drawer thing from the landing ( which has all Ds2's paper, pens, jigsaws etc in it ) into Ds2's room. After my mass toy sort yesterday he had room for it.
I have to take the car for a service tomorrow either at 10 or 11 i can't remember . It's about 20 miles away so i'll have to do some window shopping while i wait.;) I can't buy too much as i won't have a car to put it in. I think i'll do a food shop afterwards.
Ok i'll stop rambling and sort out a list for tomorrow.0 -
