Ever had one of those days when you want to find somewhere to hide and never come out. Am having one of those. I seem to have crumbled into some sort of freaked out emotional wreck. Am off to seek out coffee and ponder why I gave up smoking all those years ago.

Oh dear. If its of any comfort I have those days as well. Slip a Scotch into that coffee!

I've had a quiet a few days like that which usually involved burst into tears at the slightest thing (this was mostly when I was feeling homesick). I hope whatever is bothering you passes soon and that the coffee help a little.

Is this a private club or can anyone join? go ahead have a moan - and while you're at it have a moan for me. By law I am not allowed to murder the 3 guys that work alongside me - but I am sitting here imagining ways in which I can secretly be wicked to them! it might help by giving me some suggestions on how I can be secretly mean. I have already thought about replacing their seasick pills with HRT ones!

And for any guys out there coming back with smart ass answers don't p*ss us off anymore!

You go ahead AmyDavid and moan - we're all allowed an off day!

Well...! My OH flew back to the UK last night for his brothers funeral this week. It's one week since it happened.

I am worried sick out money at the moment - though am going to try and sit down tonight and work myself out a plan that will see us through.

I am feeling awful with this cold and really sore throat - tho can look on the bright side of this one - sore throat = no eating = skinnier me. Can't be bad.

2 children annoying the hell out of each other and the cat whilst I am trying to make phone calls - why do kids do this? You don't hear a peep out of them and as soon as they know you are on the phone, they make enough noise for a whole house of kids!

I wouldn't normally let things get on top of me but I think my OH's brother dying has kind of given me a kick in the stomach and sent me all out.

Am feeling marginally better now - must be the thought of sending the kids out into the snow for a bit whilst I sit and listen to the peace and quiet!

Oh AmyDavid - I had complelty forgotten about the funeral - how very insensitive of me! Please forgive me! Yes I know how rotten you must be feeling - and being apart from OH and family isn't easy at a time like this.

Tried to send more Karma - but I've got to spread it around a bit more - but rest assured I'm thinking of you!

Liff

It's normal Amy, you've kept going all week for your OH,
now he's gone, things are catching up on you, especially
as you don't feel very well, and have no family around to help you
Does it help I've got a big jar of Branston Pickle with
your name on it
I think we need to plan a girl's night out next week

Sorry to hear about your *?!*@~* crap day Amy. karma sent

Normal...what's that then?!!

Oh a girls night sounds great - I'll come to yours and you can make me a MASSIVE cheese sandwich smothered in that Branston Pickle

You are bound to feel low Amy as Val said you have kept it together for OH, Things will get back to normal well sort of,

Best advice having been through something very sim is to cry your heart out hun, don't try and put a brave face on,

Big hugs xx

well, with you I'm not sure
at least you still have your sense of humour
see you soon

Offer to make them some coffee and put laxatives in them .. EVIL

also, i cant imagine how your feeling, 29 yrs old and never been to a funeral, people dont die in my family although not complaining .. cyber hugs sent your way ..

Slight moan myself .. took kids to dentist tonight for their last UK check-up .. youngest needs 2 fillings although very small and oldest needs big filling, he is refusing to get it sorted so i have told him that if he doesnt get it done all the money he has saved for a games console in Canada will be spent on his future trip to the dentist in canada so he will be paying for it .. BLOODY KIDS .. because he cant feel pain, he doesnt think he needs it doing .. its FREE in the UK .. it costs a small fortune in Canada .. i'll strangle him one of these days (not really) .. the kid is a wuss bag

hugs and karma x x x x x

Hope you feel better soon Amy

Not just the treatment either. The first thing that'll likely happen at the dentist here will be an x-ray as a new patient. So there's a couple of hundred before the dentist has even done anything.
