    Jo Jo - I love reading your exploits with your cats. Really cheers me up x
    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

    Hi all, sounds like a few of us need hugs at the mo.

    Well we're almost set, shorts, nighties and wide legged leggings sorted. Wipes bought. Bath running as its the last DD2 will be able to have for awhile.
    I've got myself a new set of jimjams as I'm staying in with her tomorrow night.

    I'm off to sort some tea and our bags, we're in at 7am tomorrow morning so 'everything go smoothly' vibes would be very gratefully received for the operation.

    Right off to pack and sort.

    Evening ladies,

    Quiet day at work, which just makes me more lethargic!
    Went for a kip when i got home, and didn't hear the alarm go off. Oops.
    We've now had a late dinner, and I really CBA to do owt else.
    I'm going to go and finish the kitchen - sink full of plastic pots from lunch at work, and then I might do a few bits off the list. Need to put the towels in the TD cos I missed the glorious weather today. Another oops. (I feel it's going to be one of my disorganised weeks :()

    Sorry to hear about the BD Lamewolf - no problem offloading here. Our collective wisdom knows no bounds.....:D
    molly41 - my husband has just read a book on Mindfulness and is trying to practice it. He suffers with the BD since he had his brain tumour diagnosed/removed. He says it is helping him to deal with life.
    Boddy - glad to hear things are a little better......
    Greenbee - hugs.
    Dancemum - glad you're felling better.

    HUGE apologies if I have missed anyone. More hugs just in case....:D

    having major CBA day today, so never mind, its nothing compared to what some of you are going through.

    LW & Toots, both vent here when you need to, i know im not the most vocal with encouragement but you both seem to put everyone else first and yourselves last and you NEED TO STOP THAT RIGHT NOW. Greenbee, you pay attention to that as well :D

    I hope everything goes ok with the operation Greenbee, and LW have you considered getting a pet of your own as the BD doesnt seem to hit you as much (well from your posts anyway) when you are dog sitting. doesnt need to be a dog, but could look into a pet for company during the day something low maintenace as well - not that i have any suggestions, but it could be just enough to give you that bit of company during the day that you need.

    Toots, no advice for you as dont know what to suggest other than venting and having a "woah is me" rant on here when you need a bit of extra support.

    Spoons and hugs to all those that need em xx
