Having a bad time
#106
Thanks. In 6 years of living away, apart from the first year when I was suicidal, I have been extremely settled and I usually am able to turn off the emotions. As I have often said I only have my Dad and my brother now so it is hard to thinking about missing something as important as his wedding day.

Just spoke with my cousin, I told him I thought the scenery was great in Canada, my house is all I ever wanted but my life is empty and it doesn't mean anything to me.
He said that when he lived in Hong Kong and Bali, he once walked on the beach and thought he should be feeling like the luckiest guy in the world, working and living in a beautiful place but all he wanted to do was sit in a pub surrounded by his friends and family. That just summed it all up for me.

Having a really shi**y day today and need to moan. So switch off now if you don't feel like being moaned at. Things have just reached a peak I s'pose. I will enlighten you;
1) Last week the car was broken into on the drive. They didn't take anything, just smashed the lock in. And we supposedly live in a nice area in a safe cul-de-sac
2) Hubby got a new job..yippee...what they didn't tell him was we would be absolutely broke for a month whilst they bugger about with his pay.
3) The iron blew up. Now my ironing pile is about 5ft high. Then again, I s'pose that's a good thing. Can't afford a new iron yet.
4) Things got a bit heated over the weeked with OH and I finally told him we are deffinately going back to the UK. All very tearful and draining but he's agreed it's the best thing for me and he will support me on that.
5) Yesterday I had to have one of our cats put to sleep
as he was diagnosed with feline lukemia. Crikey, putting an ill cat to sleep is bad enough, but ordering one to be destroyed that is looking very healthy is heartbreaking. I haven't told the kids the truth. I've told them I found him a new home where he wouldn't be beaten up by my other cat.
6) Then last night, on the way home from school the steering on the car decided to start making really awful grinding noises. It's going to the mechanic tonight. God knows how much that's going to cost.
7) Finally, last but not least, I am so homesick at the moment it's ridiculous. Every minute of every day is spent thinking about home. I can't seem to function without something about home popping into my head.
Mods, please don't put this into the barbi. I couldn't hack any grief from some people in there.
I'm just so sad at the moment.
Ok moan over. You can wake up now.

You've hit the nail on the head there totally. We've achieved everything in Australia we thought we wanted to make us happy; big house,pool,beach,sun,laid back life. None of it actually 'means' anything though. It's all just 'stuff' I can live without.
