Just a quick hello. The pain in the arm is lessened. Still struggling with the neck, and having a sore throat is not helping me much. Have had a headache for the last two days so not sure what thats about. Maybe the change of medication, maybe something else.
Have had twin1 to help the last couple of days. But she is now going back home today. So its back to caring for DGD with Molly and her daughters help tomorrow. Meanwhile I am going to just rest up. But appart from reading I am finding it very frustrting and boring. So used to being on the go.
BF was very quiete and hardly spoke. Out of his comfort zone. Which is speaking volumes to me at the moment.When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0 -
Just checking in.
Much better today. More able to move this morning, even with the collar on. Molly said that she could see a difference too.
She took DGD to Nursery for me, as I am still not driving.
Still not sewing either, but have had a few hours on and off of the internet this evening, doing a bit or surfing. Was on a site I used to use, tried to do an order but it got lost at the checkout. So decided that I was obviously not supposed to be ordering from them!
Tired now, just having a "talk" with BF over the texts, not so good a way of doing it, about his distance. He has agreed he finds it difficult around sick people. Well I could tell that from his body language. Which means that a future together doesnt look that rosey does it? What with all the things that we have conquered it seems there is still a huge fly in the ointment!.When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0 -
I cannot sleep, I have been up now since around 3am! its now 5am and time for getting up soon enough. I have been faffing around on the internet, but while doing the washing!.
But I suppose its time that i tried to go back to sleep. I shall regret it in the morning, but as I was just tossing around in the bed, thought a change of scenery would help.
Forgot about a payment going out of my account, so glad that my Tax Credits went in! I would have been in a bit of a pickle if not.
I changed up my Euros yesterday, and used them to pay for a course that Molly and I are going to do later in the year, making Christmas decorations. Two holidays for the price of one you might say.
Something to look forward to, and I hope we will both be well enough to really enjoy.
I fear I shall be spending some time in bed today! Catching up on the sleep I couldnt get tonight. Too much on my mind? Probably. there always is.
I have a few things to do with the household budget as well, but couldnt face the numbers this late.
Another todo list arising.!
Arm is aching, and I am catching myself hunching my shoulders while I type, so must ask the physio for some advice on Thursday.
Hope others have slept better then I have!When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0 -
Well I did go back to bed, and slept sort of for the next two hours. Waking just after 7am.
DGD chose this morning to have another of her screaming abdabs, and boy was it one! Took it out of me. The energy was low anyway, now its depleated completely!.
Molly has once again taken her to the nursery for me. ITs been a week now since I last drove my car.
This typing is definitely one of the problems I am having with my neck and arm, and will have to work out somewhere else to sit and work, and to see if my posture etc can be improved.! Now again I need a rest.When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0 -
I hope you don't mind me asking, but what's happening between you and your BF? You seem on a bit of a downer with the relationship.0

Oh he struggles to deal with people when they are ill. His Mum was quite ill when his children were small, and she died just after we met. (I didnt meet her again, (not since the 1970's), but I believe she was wheelchair bound. ). He goes all distant and quiet, which is not exactly the way I want to be treated when I am poorly. But he has admitted it in a text and we went a little deeper in an email today, so I hope that its just a blip. But its scarey to think that he backs off when I need him the most. But at least he is trying to deal with his issues, hes just not that good at it. We will get through it, if he continues to face the things, and not bury them under the carpet. I hope.When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0

Still struggling a bit. But at least I am still on the mend.
Been to the doctors, only have to wear the collar at night in bed, or in the car. (when the neck may take punishment), but I am not going to wear it while I drive. I am going to drive for the first time in a week this afternoon, when I collect Twin1. The doctor is sending me for an X ray. Not had one in a while, and he wants to know if there is anything out of alignement.
My tax credits have been sorted, and the future should finally be back on a level playing field, however I loose the Council Tax benefit, and most of the Housing Benefit. But thats OK. Eventually I should be no worse off, but I will not be any better off, as its in with one hand and out with the other!.
I have had some beautiful flowers left on my doorstep yesterday, and with no name I was wondering who had left them. All has been revieled today, as my son had told an old friend that I was ill, and he had come over yesterday. He called in today. So the mystery is over. I told him to tell my son its about time I saw my son!
Biggest of Mooloo is going to come over tomorrow, and "swap" the twins around, and take me for my Xray.
On Friday its our time to go and see the boys again. I have missed them so much.
Just been talking on the MSN to my Mum and Dad. So my typing limitations are up.!!
Hopefully I will be back at the sewing machine soon. I am so frustrated and really missing the creating side of life.
DGD is in Nursery until 3pm so I have time for a quick nap before I collect her then her Mum. My first attempt at driving.When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0 -
Well Twin1 cancelled less then an hour before I was due to go and get her. So DGD is once again let down by her mother, and Me, I am not happy. I had expected to be able to have a sleep etc this afternoon, and now I am struggling with only managing to get a 30minute cat napp before I collected DGD.
It was the first time I drove, and just that and getting her into the car has been enough. I had walked to the local Co-op to get my Electric Key topped up, and chased the post woman half way up the street in the other direction, as I just missed her delivery.
I managed to take the washing in, with the exception of two things that had hung lower then the cover, its all dry. Which is amazing dispite the rain of yesterday. Molly's daughter had hung it out for me yesterday afternoon. So thats me exhausted,
I am definitely not up to as much activity as I would like yet.
Time to rest again while DGD is watching a bit of TV. Just came on to update and then go and shuffle some money around.When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0 -
I have just heard that DS and the family from hell that he lives with have been out drinking last night and have been arrested! I am really worried.
I dont know any details but the Father, the second son, and another man along with my son have all been arrested. I am so worried, but there is nothing that i can do at the moment. Biggest of Mooloo is trying to find out.
I have been to the hospital for an X ray, and to Physio for manipulation etc, so I am in a lot of pain again and need to rest. I shall try and sleep, while Twin2 is here. She is helping before we go and see her boys tomorrow. So she is going to do some painting with DGD.
There is always something!When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0 -
I tried to sleep, but obviously what with the neck collar, and the worry over DS I have not succeeded. But I did rest up a little bit. Biggest of Mooloo treid to get some information out of the police station, but all that she could find out is that "he is safe". Its such a worrying time. Something that nobody needs.
My Ex Husband is due to have DGD for the weekend. Yipee I get to rest up from tomorrow mid afternoon until around 4pm on Sunday. But he only just told me that they are going out to dinner or something, on Saturday, so she needs something to wear! Not good, as she doesnt have any party stuff at the moment, the clothes I made for holiday are a bit thin for wearing here in the UK really, and I am not very well, so couldnt do my usual and russel something up over the evening.
DGD is having a dance around the sitting room to some music at the moment.
My neck is hurting after the physio this morning, which is not really a surprise, but at least I can move my neck around further then its been for a while.
We are having a bit of a left overs night for our dinner tonight so that should be easy.
Usuing the new melamine dishes that Molly helped me to get, has really helped, as i can actually lift the plates up! Just wish I could get lightweight saucepans and casserole dishes. Havent made a good old casserole in a while just because I cannot lift it out of the oven.
hey ho.When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0
