. I gave up looking because every where was spotless!
I've also had a load of personal family problems to get through that have prevented me from getting to SADA as often as I might have and generally shopping at the nearest store to me when I feel up to it.
We as a family have had some very good news but also some devastating news as well. There are two babies due in the family, one is to DH's sister so my 1st niece or nephew, due in Nov. The other is to my cousin, this little guy isn't going to make itthe docs have given him a 1% chance of surviving birth and even if he does he may only live for a few hours. The docs suspect he has Edwards syndrome, he also has a hole in the top of his spine, a faulty valve somewhere in his skull allowing spinal/brain fluid to leak out which is forming in a mass at the base of his skull and growing quite quickly. Cousin is booked in to have a C-section in August and has been to price a plot in the graveyard for the wee guy, we were talking about grave stones and I took her to see my DH's one as she wants one that will last and not fade. It just seems so surreal that in one hand we were looking at getting him a christening gown and a matter of hours later pricing his funeral
Suffice it to say I've really lost my mojo and in the grand scheme of things it's not that important, sorry if I've upset anyone but today and the past few have been very hard. I've tried not to upset anyone by talking about it as emotions are running very high at the moment.When The Fun Stops Stop0 -

We have just been without internet for 12 hours. Amazing what you can get done in that time! Of course, that did include being out at work for a substantial amount of time, but it got my DD out of the house!!What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare0
