THANK you x
Im feeling much brighter tonight and am home.
Hugs catch up seen xI 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.0 -

Watching Tv and being lazy really.
Tomorrow I am taking the wedding dress back for another fitting. Then hope to be doing more sewing through out the week.

Have a bit of an upset tummy today so not strayed too far. managed to make a few children's tunics. dress up police costumes. had pre printed fabric so they are very simple. thought i may manage to sell a few to the mums that still have kids at nursery. But went back to bed at lunchtime.When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0

Its not been one of my better weeks. Its been a bit of an effort to do things. I have a rather dodgy stomach still.
On Wednesday I had my hair done, which at least helped me feel a little better, but I have a coldsore, and am obviously rundown.
I saw the doctor on Tuesday to get my repeat prescription updates. He was thrilled that I had reduced my meds as much as I had, and siad that I had "made his day". The next steps are to get of the rest. mmm.
I have been sewing small jobs each day, to make me do things. Yesterday and today I have been making some stuffed hearts. Some with wadding, and some with Lavender.
The beautician that I sometimes go to for a massage sent a text yesterday to say that she had some Half Price slots today. So I have been for a massage. Wonderful. I had forgotten how lovely it was.
Mind you I am still tired and think that I may just get a sleep before DGD gets home.
I am sorry that i havent been on so much. Just havent been using the laptop and updating on the phone or Kindle seems to be be the norm for me of late.
Today I had to go onto the bank accounts as I had absolutely no idea where I was financially, and that was bringing me anxiety, as usually I check in every day, and make sure I know where I am.
I think I will go and have a rest, then have a bath afterwards. As DGD is being collected for me, I dont have to go out again and i can get cosy rather then dressed up. Which suits the rather low way I feel still.
I did have a go for 6 mins under the sunbooth at the hairdressers and that did help with the moods yesterday. So I will try and remember to make the effort to go again each week, until I get the mood swings under control.When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0 -
Sorry you're feeling a bit ropey. There's a lot of it about right now, what with this awful weather and nobody having enough money. Everyone seems to have lingering colds and cold sores too. Doom and gloom everywhere!Love the animals: God has given them the rudiments of thought and joy untroubled. Do not trouble their joy, don't harrass them, don't deprive them of their happiness.0

Have a few errands to run today. Take DS to town, and make sure he gets to his Back to work interview. Then he has an appointment to sign back on! At last!.
I will be collecting Molly's daughter on my way back. As I am there anyway. Will save her waiting around in town for buses for ages and the long and windy way the buses go around all the villages too.
I have to check out Twin1's place to make sure that its suitable for DGD to stop over. She is aiming to have her tonight.
I havent heard anything from any of the kids, not even biggest of mooloos this week? All too busy for their mum? At least they havent asked for anything either.
I had my half price massage, and then in the evening yesterday, DGD went to tea at one of her friends. So I had a soak in the bath and fabbed myself. The Mum said I looked lovely when I went to collect her. (I applied makeup for a change. Rare I ever put any one.). So at least the outside can mask the feelings of the inside.
Its nearly time to do the school run. Then back to sort out the washing. Before the trip to town. Then bags to pack for DGD with clothes and toys. (IF the place is clean/tidy enough).
Starting to claw back the overspends of the end of last year, and will have just about cleared off one of the Credit cards. Well I will have cleared it by the payment going out on 16th. So back on track there. Only a few hundred pounds left to catch up on on the other one. Few. I see the end in site. Then I have to keep on track.
Not much in the bank by the middle of the month. But at least we are safe, warm, and have food in.When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0 -
DGD had a successful visit with her Mum this weekend.
I got to go out for dinner and be an adult for a change. The weather curtailed any much walking etc, just a trip around the shops, where I spent the grand total of £5 on batteries and biscuits.
The Satellite signal has gone on Sky with the arrival of the snow, so DGD has gone up to bed to watch a video in her room.
The silence down here is strange to say the least.
I was going to do some sewing, but have been faffing around on the computer trying to sort a few bills etc out. Ouch. £87 on the Phone bill for DS and Twin1. I am not sure that I will be clawing all of that back some how. I have not been keeping an eye or remembering to collect funds from them, so its my own fault.
I have only my self to blame here.
DS has been to sign on again, so with any luck that will start to be sorted out. Still he is no further down the road for the Blacksmithing. Seems to not be able to reach the guy concerned dispite numerous phone calls. (the bill shows that one!).
I have had an enquiry about some more of my scented sachets. So thats nice. Hopefully they will ring me back, as I had to leave a message with the Hubby. But it will be good if the woman is interested as she is a Nails and Beauty person, who will have clients that may be possible contacts for me. Who knows.
I was looking forward to the TV, call the midwife etc but not sure whats actually on tonight. Maybe I will see if I can get the TV on the laptop. Believe its possible some how. So off to go and see if I can work out the technology. If not when DGD is asleep I may manage to go up to the room next to her and sew a bit.When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0 -
