Finding it hard today as it would of been his birthday. I know I have remarried but I still miss him - am I wrong feeling like this still.

hey sweetcarer, of course you are not wrong. it's totally normal. your first husband was a huge part of your life, so your relationship with him has helped make you who you are today, and that is who your new husband loves.
everyone is the sum of their life to date, the choices they've made, the experiences they've had, the people they've known...

wow chicky, i just read your story. to go through all of your labour alone because they thought you were imagining it is just horrid. i kinda feel sick on your behalf. you are an amazing woman and i'm in awe at what you were able to do and cope with.

i can't help but wonder if maybe you should put in an official complaint? thank goodness you and baby were fine, but if it were another woman with a different situation, things might not have ended so posativly. they need to realise this.

My latest Czar update, the blue at the bottom left is the outer edge of page A, so not much to go :j i may actually complete the months challenge :rotfl:

Oooh forgot to say that I picked up the cocker spaniel from framers today. I will take a picture before I send it to my friend but unfortunately I can't make the camera to talk to the computer so might take time until I can post it here.

Keiss & nmm. Lovely progress ladies.

Well, although it's going well, she had the baby yesterday, and I am seeing her next Wednesday, so I'd better get stitching. I think I've done about half, and I need to sacrifice a day to get it framed....

*Louise* what's the secret behind stitching so fast lol xx

I was a bit shocked as well to be honest - you've had a baby before, so you knew what to expect. I can't believe they thought u were making it up!

Still, he's fine, you're fine, and you're having fish and chips for tea!

I would write to them to let you know what you went through - so they can adjust their procedures. At the end of the day you're all fine, and that's all that matters xx

nmm - getting there...he is gorgeous:D

TMIF - Loving that tractor, so cute, and very muted colours, will go with any nursery scheme.

Ps - Lap frame / blue erase marker and the need to stitch while watching telly are all the secrets I have :rotfl:
