  • Hugs and prayers for you and your family holly. It is sad that he is so far away too and you can't go to his funeral. Maybe you could get together with family here and spend some time thinking of him, as a way to say goodbye.

  • Big Love, Hugs and Spoons to you all,

    Special wishes to you HollyH xx

    Today has been emotionally toiling for me and am having a lot of pain tonight hence I am awake at this hour.. My mum has been a godsend and generously offered to pay for my car insurance as the quote arrived today and I nearly died in shock. Legally epileptics are not meant to 'knocked' in insurance costs but you have to declare all of the medical information. I feel ever so guilty and mixed up about taking money from mum and dad, they can afford it but it still feels wrong to me, i am very independent. Mum also bought me some shopping today, just some whoopsie items and it was all what I had planned to buy myself as she didnt tell me until we went to pay but still. Mum is so kind, I have to drive her out to appointments and the shop and such because of her sight problems but even so...it feels awkward.

    Sorry not really the place to share all this but its praying on my mind a lot..

    Anyway flying... i decided to wipe anything I haven't done so far this week as I have managed most of level 1/2's so far.

    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    Morning all.

    Have washed two loads of towels and cloths including cloths from school that had been damp and become VERY whiffy! Beds all stripped and airing and the washer is on again with bedding in now. Towels on line - bright, sunny but a bit chilly in Valliland - still it hasn't stopped me opening ALL the windows and freshening up the house!

    Just off to have some breakfast then I'll crack on!

    Hugs Poohbear and Holly
