    Hi PLMBL.

    Sorry you have had a few down days, is there anything you could do for an hour just by yourself. I know its hard with Dh but even an hour to walk the dog might help, I often do this if the kids are driving me mad just helps me clear my head.

    Take care.x.

    Oh Lucky :( You know you can rant on here. I find it best not to think ahead to be honest, just take it one day at a time, it's too scary otherwise. I try to concentrate on things I can do something about.

    Weather is so depressing at the moment isn't it. The sun finally reappeared this teatime here.

    Well done on the weight loss - see that's something you can control :)

    Hope things pick up soon xx

    Thanks everyone!

    Looked after next door's 2 dogs today as they were away for the day. What better to cheer you up than looking after 3 crazy spaniels?! :rotfl:. It hasn't been brilliant weather today, but at least it's been dry, and we all had a good walk. Haven't managed any time to myself with having all the dogs, but it's on the 'to do' list!

    Hi all, thanks for your messages in my absence. Got home at lunchtime from our week in Yorkshire, which was lovely for the main part, but must admit I'm pleased to be home. I need a bit of space!!

    DH got a shock when he got home because he was expecting our old sofas and had forgotten that we changed them a few months ago :eek:. He's been a bit glazed over this afternoon and his sweet tooth is back :(.

    I spent the rest of today cleaning the house - why does it always look manky when you're seeing it through fresh eyes after a week away?! Caught up on eleventy billion emails, and started the laundry mountain. Next job is to devise a cunning plan to make some money - spent too much while away :o.
