I have a batch of White Zinfandel and a batch of Sauvignon Blanc fermenting away right now to be ready just in time for the xmas tree going up:D |
Re: Feeling lonely and needing a moan!!
Definitely the drink thing. Why do you think the Vodka belt is called the vodka belt? Get some vodka and do what everyone else does - drink the winter away.

Get a fancy man.
I think that's what they're called in Nova Scotia. Not sure there are any fancy men though. They tend to look like this: http://www.freeforpsp.com/upload/200...9224229811.jpg Though they do have their uses: they could teach you horticulture. |
Re: Feeling lonely and needing a moan!!
If it is at all financially doable, I'd suggest getting a second car. Being stuck in the house with no means of transport would drive me (or my wife) up the wall. If it's not financially doable perhaps you could drive the OH to work and pick him up so that you have use of the car during the day?

You could buy a monkey instead then. The kids would pay $10 to play with it for 5 minutes !

My husband works all day so needs the car leaving me stuck at home alone with my youngest daughter :( (sad face for being stuck at home not for being with my daughter!! :lol:). Gone from a working, singing, out riding three times a week, social person to being stuck at home 24/6!! I would like to work from home but not sure where to start or what to do!! I'm about to go stir crazy!!!
Anyone have some advice? Where in HRM are you? Is the OH able to get the bus to work so you can have the car? That is what we do and I work 3and a half days a week so I'm not stuck in all the time. There are alot of us expats here if you ever want company :) |

Re: Feeling lonely and needing a moan!!
Is it possible that your blues are because after four months, and being excited about a new change, you are coming down to earth and it's all a bit of an anti climax? Also being stuck with a small child in a new place with no transport could make the sanest of us go nuts- it's nearly had me there on a couple of occasions!
I am really looking forward to coming to NB, but I know it's going to be harder than I think, and if I have a gloomy few days, I'm going to try to be nice to myself! It's scary finding new friends again. Have you thought of going to the local riding school for the adult sessions? Transport, of course, permitting. You could get the chance to meet some other women who are interested in horses? I'm not horsey, but a girl-friend of mine here started riding and has made a big network of friends, and her little kids are doing it too, so she's made friends with the mothers too, and it wasn't terribly expensive. Hope you start to feel less gloomy, this time of year can be the pitts too! |
