And you hun. I'm sweltering.lol.

Just before I go, here is a photo of how I'm going to get my hair cut. This is me in early 2007, and I like my hair like in the photo so I'm going to get it done like that again.



You can't see it too well but it's layered and feathered.

Sorry to hear about your loss PoppyCracker

I can only echo what Tiff said - I remember all this when my father died and told my mother the same things.

Went out to the shops and got a jacket and blouse in the charity shop - I much prefer getting stuff from them over regular stores - you get good deals and it helps others.

Went to a long drive to Weymouth and back - it is further than I thought. They have some nice places to eat in town by the river, Portland Bill reminded me of central Scotland (nowhere that nice to eat/drink):D

It is raining this evening, I thought the dry weather would hold out but it might be better tomorrow.

I do, Ccstar. I'm not sure why. It's only with some though, and I can't put my finger on the reason why.

I accepted it more when I was in my 20s but I am in my mid 40s and still feel like a kid around them.

I had a nice day today. Me and ds went swimming after he finished school. The sun was lovely and I started feeling so positive. The I started reading my local paper and saw a picture o a man I recognised. He sadly passed away. I rang my mum and told her about him and his name ect and she told me it is my aunts husband. I am so upset for the family.His funeral was held on tuesday but we have had no contact with them since we was little. My mum probaly didnt tell me coz she knew it would upset me with everything that is going on in my life but she should of as I would of wanted to go to the funeral to pay my respect as he was very much loved. He was over 90 years old.He was such a good man. They use to have a fish and chip shop, he always use to give me and my brother food which was so yummy.
I foundhis son on facebook who i use to play with as a child and sent him a message. I want to go and visit them but I know I will cry like a baby which wont help.
When will my life ever stop grieving?Why can a smile not last or happiness only last for a few hours then I come crashing down.
So many deats have happened in our family, friends have gone. I dont want no more deaths!!!!
Im sorry that when I post on here its never positive and I know there are 2 or 3 ppl that dislike me coz of they way I post but my life is full of disasters and I dont know what to do.

Hi Diamond,Sory to here about yout aunts husband,it is always sad when someone dies but as you say he was over 90 so he had a good life.I am sure his son will be grateful for your message and to know you are thinking of him.If you want to visit i would go,tears are part of the grieving process and it is natural to cry when someone passes.Your question on why happiness does not last reminds me of something my youngest son said when he was only seven or eight,he said"if we were never sad how would we know when we were happy"and it is true death is a part of life,not very nice to think about but something that happens to us all. Never apolagise for not being positive,this is a depression support thread,depressives do tend towards negativity lol.If someone dislikes someone for the way they post then maybe they should not be reading a thread they obviously do not understand.
Glad you had a nice time with your son i bet he enjoyed the swimming and it is a great way of keeping fit.

Thank you geminilady.Thats really kind of you. This is the 3rd death in 2 months.First my mums eldest sister then my friends mum last month now this.
My poor mum lives abroad so I cant even be there for her but my brother is going soon so I know my mum will be ok.
My son said to me please dont cry mummy, so I never and waited for him to sleep.I knwo I will feel better once I see them.I dont even know where they live but I know its somewhere in London.
Its sad when family fall out and contact is lost as its the children that suffer. i have no contact with any family apart from my mum.Had no contact with anone from my dads side from when I was 8, till I found my dad when I was 18 and that didnt go well at all as he wanted nothing to do with me. He died 2 years ago and I was devasted that he didnt even ant me at his bed side as he was dying from cancer.Maybe it was his wife as she hated me so much.She blamed me and said I caused my dads cancer which now I know its not true as his lung cancer was probaly due to his heavy smoking.i did not even get to see his grave as his wife buried him in another country, my dad had nothing to do with that country but theres nothing I can do.

All I want is to block things out.Even if its just for an hour, to stop my mind going on and on about things.

My son had a lovely time thank you. He was so happy when Ipicked him up from school and told him I was taking him swimming. Im glad i took him as I havent done much with him for so long.He is growing up so fast.I wish he was a baby so I could protect him all the time.I must admit tho when im with my son Im happy and at peace, when his at school im so misrable and down.

Once again thank you for your kind words and support.Hugs xx

Dont be nervous. Its like a support thread. You can write what you want, if you have problems or just feel like you want to get things off your chest.
Nice to meet you by the way.
