    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.

Have to keep reminding myself that we finally have a bedroom door that actually closes properly, that canine guests won't be able to nudge open. LOL:p

    The reduction process for the happy pills is kicking in the headache is back along with the shivers, aches etc.. Hopefully this will ease within a week or so though so I just need to keep going for a bit.

    I get like that when I alter my tablets Sarah; I go a bit shaky, have a headache and just generally feel rough. It normally passes in about 5 days and then I feel OK again so fingers crossed you'll feel better soon (((hugs))).

    000203DB.gif Goodness can't write what I'm thinking the cheek of it. Says loads about her mother talking like that to her child. Out of the mouths of babes eh?

    I think she may have just meant I am stroppy and gobby lol... I said to DD.. 'does she mean a mum that cares where you are? and a mum that is bothered about you being clean and tidy and properly fed? And a mum that cares whether you look nice and behave well and are polite and well-mannered? Or does she mean that she thinks you should have a rude mum like her, who lets her children be rude and behave nastily and just not care?'

    Also from the mouths of babes ;) just slightly more eloquent ones.

    WM's both on again
    TD on again
    7 loads folded and put away

    Advent calendars next once baby is fed.
