    Hi toots!

    It went really well thanks, a lovely counsellor who didn't have to do much to get me on the right track. It was her that set me off to grieve properly then recover and get on the right track for the future. I am glad I have completed the sessions, I have 2 spare in case I need them (I don't think I will) I feel on the road to recovery where this is concerned and that is a nice good positive feeling. It is up to me to keep progressing on this path now.

    Hiya
    Just a quickie to say I won't be around for a few days. I ended up calling an ambulance last night because DS became so ill. He was taken to hospital and sedated as they couldn't control the pain. We still don't know what the problem is. I've just come for a few hours sleep whilst my DH is with him. Just wanted to let you know so you don't worry....saying that, you'll probably worry anyway now but at least he's in the best hands. They're probably going to transfer him to a children's hospital tomorrow.

    Love to you all xxxx

  • Well Toots, the moto dust really did work for me. I have totally cleared the bed and all the junk off the floor and dressing tables and stripped the bed.

    Will go and get DD2 as she's woken up now and get DD1 from school. Its the first time in ages that I've not had to wake DD2 up to go to school. I made sure today that she was in bed as early as possible so gave her lunch at 11.30 and she was in bed just before 12.15 so she's had a really good sleep. I hate having to wake her up when she's sleeping so soundly. The thing is that even after sleeping that long today, she'll still sleep tonight too.

    Back in a bit for more fun flying!
