OH MY GOD I don't log on for a while and LOOK WHAT HAPPENS! :eek:
Have just spent the last 15 mins reading all the replies, some made me tearful, some made me annoyed, some made me laugh.... but in the end it came down to this is MY diary where I ramble on about crap to make my DFW journey that bit easier. I get love and support from people I class as friends even though I've never met them before. This diary is my rock and support in the virtual world and stops me from saying f**k it and giving in when it all gets too tough. I've gone through my LBM, pregnancy, birth, grief, depression, hard times, tears, fears, and problems as well as all the brilliant things that have happened and written everything about anything in this diary and all I've ever had is support from everyone.
Of course I don't have it as hard as some. I have a roof over my head, 2 beautiful girls and a wonderful caring husband. Yea ok we may have money troubles but at the end of the day money can't buy you love and happiness as those are things you make for yourself. As long as we were all healthy and together I wouldn't care if we were living in some grotty bedsit eating bread and water.
As for me being judged.. as I've said before I'm used to it and I think most people who meet me instantly think 'stupid council house teenage mum who can't even look after herself let alone her kids in debt and living off benefits'.
We have it hard. But the difference is I respect the fact that other people have it equally as bad if not harder than us and I am eternally grateful for everything we have and have achieved. It's not been easy but I'm not going to rub everyone face it in by constantly going on about my problems and how hard I have it (well apart from in here :rotfl:).
I am who I am and I do what I do out of the best interests of myself and my family. If you don't like it you can bloody well f**k off.

We tried explanation and reasoning last night, but got nowhere - straight forward and to the point is the only way with some people
