Bonsoir!

((Hugs)) Pen-Pin, hope everything is peace for FIL, how is DD taking it?

Not very well TBH. We visited today and it was awful. I had to leave the room and have a good cry in another room, then compose myself and went back. I dont often cry or get emotional, so family there were a bit shocked I think. DD doesnt want to visit anymore as she is finding it too destressing (sp)

The WM has been on and TD. I have someone collecting the ironing tomorrow as there is so much again. Not very OS but it does need doing and I dont want to ask OH.

Hospital tomorrow and should find out how the base of my spine is doing.

Have my annual assessment this week with Social Services to see if my care needs have changed. They have changed for the worse and am worried they will try and put me in a day centre as I would hate that but may help OH? Apparently they are introducing Indivdual Budgets and have tried to look how they work but cant work it out ...all quite confusing.

Anyway, I am rambling but thank you for all the lovely messages. They are much appreicated.

Hope that to-day has been a good one Beemuzed.

Bitsy...not sure what to say, only had trouble with DD1, the other six were very good, would think of the controlled crying as so many people who have done it were happy with the outcome.

Have really noticed the 'stretch' in the evenings the last couple of days when it hasn't been raining...makes me feel much better, not fond of the dark.

DGS2 was here last night and woke up very early, not sure what time, demanding pancakes for breakfast, so got up and cooked them....we all had some so a nice filling breakfast, he went home soon after and we had a leftovers dinner, OH 2 small pork chops with roasties and mixed veg with a sauce made of some cheese spread, I had the rest of the bolognese from Friday with some of the veg.

Am having a problem at present with sweets, chocolates etc.....there are still lots of things left over from Christmas and of course I eat them while they are here, at least the more I eat the sooner they will be gone!

Welcome Kalojac, you will like it here I am sure.

PenPin....sorry that things are so bad at the moment, if you feel like crying do so, it helps I have always found.

No plans for to-morrow, going to bed soon so that I won't mind getting up early in the morning.

Sleep well all

Evening everyone

Had a mad decluttering session today -2 bin bags full out of ds2 room, most to go to charity shop but some rubbish. Started on my room and filled another bag with old clothes that don't fit.

DS2(9) has been extremley fitful in sleep the last few days as he is due to go into hosp tomorrow to have his pins taken out of his leg, he is very nervous and I have tried to reassure him. We have to be there by 7.30 and he is not allowed anything after 6.30 and only water before then.

Bitzy - hope you managed to get some rest today
Beemuzed - Happy Birthday, hope you had a lovely day.
Niclou - hope everything goes okay tomorrow.
Pennypincher - Thinking of you and your family, hope you go on ok at the hospital tomorrow.

Hugs to anyone who needs or wants one (((())))
