Even Though...
 
Even though, my plans have crumbled to dust....

Even though i have no job because of ridiculous beaurocracy...

Even though my daughters has split from her partner 2 months after having a baby...

Even though my other daughters baby has foot deformities and her operations have been unsuccessful and she is having to switch to a hospital 55miles away

Even though i am homeless...

Even though my husbands visa application is driving me potty...

Even though i miss my man so much it hurts....

And...even though it's raining...

I still love being home in England

I feel like i wanna cry as the stress is too much right now, but i am still glad i came home. I just wish i could see the light at the end of the tunnel.

I was hoping by writing this down and senidng it of into cyber space it might cheer me up.

(((HUGS))) You'll see that light, just keep a positive attitude and the rest will fall into place. Things happen for a reason. :thumbsup:

thanks guys.

I'm just feeeling pretty sorry for myself this evening. I cant really talk to my daugthers about things as they have both got a lot of problems on their plate which means i need to be strong and positive for them. Its quite hard when you got your own issues to deal with on the quiet.
I'll get over myself shortly.

Your daughters' troubles would have happened irrespective of where you are. You could have lost your job if you stayed put. The visa stuff is really simple once you get your head 'round it. You *will* find a home. You do have an umbrella. And the sex will be magic when your man comes home! :)

Blimey, can't believe you're going in a couple of weeks. That seems to have flown by...though i guess it would've dragged for you.

All the best for your return home. Really hope it all works out good for you. :thumbsup:

The very best of luck to you moving back, Britvic. I look forward to the update in a few weeks:)

Flea - when we are in Oz, we all say "same sh@t, shiner bucket" of the place....So we know that coming back theres still sh@t!!!
BUT this time its sh@t you can do more about - you can visit the people you care/worry about. You have the families warmth and love around you:)
You are in a place where you can be proactive.
You're doing so well reminding yourself of this for when its "one of those days" and I reckon its gonna work out just fine for you!
You deserve it:)

Thanx Chrissy. As always you are so right :) Feeling a lot better today.
I threw caution to the wind and splashed out on a whole new hairdo. Cut and highlights. Why is it something that simple makes us girls feel so much better no matter whats going on? :D

I think we are a lovely bunch of people in this forum. So, we have the odd idiot pop in now and again, but i feel theres a real kinship between most of us as we really know how much each other are hurting or suffering with worries and emotions.

Hoorah for all of us and a big thanx to all of you for making me feel better :thumbsup:
