    Marvellous Monday ~ Kitchen and dining area Done!!:D:D:D
    Level One
    Level Two
    Level Three

    Got on with the list this morning, and have done Monday. I think I shall be all over the place with the days this week!

    Thank you again all of you for the hugs, sympathy, good wishes. I appreciate it, and it helps. Still feel strange. I spoke to Dad on the phone yesterday, he's very fragile. I'm going over to spend a little time with him on Thursday or Friday - as he wants just to be very quiet, and not see too many people for too long. I may go on to see my sister, as she lives quite close, depends if she has to be in work.

    Fee - hugs, and please do keep coming on here. An NCT and playground friend is in exactly the same situation as you - she was four months pregnant at the time of the accident, and her son was six months old before her OH came out of the coma. She moved to be very close to her parents, the bungalow was adapted for her husband, and they have 24 hour care for him. I admire her hugely. Accept all offers of help and support that you think are helpful, and make time for yourself. You need it.



    :hello: Hi dusty - thank you for the hugs. I'm okay today, just tired. If there's a gardening smurf, then that's me.



    It is never too late to become what you were always intended to be

    hi ladies, this is a very quick update of why i havnt been around for soooo long, my partner was on his motorbike and a drink driver hit him, hes now been left with brain damage, we have our 2 year old and im now a full time carer for them both, life isnt good but hey ho !!!! just grabbed a min whist the house if fairly quite, need you ladies to come and sort my house out for me.... lol, i was just starting to get into a routine aswell, but now welll.......... take care all, make everyday count , you may never get another chance xxx

    How very true. My Uncle was involved in a crash with a drunk driver which ended his career and left him with a walking frame its not nice. Where abouts are you someone somewhere could help even if its to meet for a coffee to give you a breather.
