    No idea what I'm supposed to eat in a day calories wise! The odd thing is till a few years ago I smoked and I weighed 10 stone all my life.

    I then discovered FOOD! :o

    Sounds like you have an over active knife and fork!!;)

    Thank you all for the words of support it means so much to me. :A:A:A:A:A:A:A:A:A

    I need Fudge_cake to be my secretary and name each and everyone one of you who have posted, big thanks to you all and I have read every one but as you can imagine time is precious. :o

    I was rather in the depths of despair in the early hours but this morning things seem a lot brighter. Mum slept very well after I left her at 12am and got up at 6am and back to bed until 10am. I would usually ring around 9am to make sure she was up but felt yesterday was such a struggle for her that best to leave her until I got there just in case she tried to do something she could not manage. I timed it just right getting there around 10.15am and found her drinking her cup of tea and tablets all taken. Her eyes were brighter after good night and pain under control. :)

    Did a Miss Laid and got all the washing out on the line and popped another load on. At both houses!! :D

Didnt get to bed until 4.30am because I got stuck into doing some more research on out family tree and got totally absorbed(I blame QPR for it, shes got me hooked but she's far better than me:o)Fascinating to find out I have a huge family that was kept hidden from us all because everyone was told that my great grandma died when my grandad was 2, but in fact she was in a mental institution for 40 odd years until she died in 1971!!:eek::eek::eek:So now managing to trace back all her relatives that we never knew we had:T:T:T

    4.30 am :eek: it is very addictive :rotfl:looking forward to going through it all with you tomorrow, bit of a chaoctic day here today will try & e-mail later, don't spend any more money on credits

    Tinyshoes,

    Thank you for posting about your Mum last night. I too have an elderly Mum who 'doesn't want to be a bother', but sometimes causes more bother being like that!!! I get so frustrated sometimes. Reading your posts make me realise I'm not alone, so thank you.

    I do hope you find her better this morning. Big hugs to you.:A

    Thanks for sharing BarleySugar, glad I'm not the only one to get frustrated. Guess it must be part of the "job". :)
