I am wurrid.

I am a pointy person and a staffy person. I am not and never have been a GSD person, in fact I'd go as far as to say I don't really like them.

Yet I find myself looking at GSD's needing homes more and more often and going

 

 

I've found myself more and more drawn to GSD's too!! I've met so many lovely long haired ones that I'm rather smitten!!

 

 

I was never a big fan of GSDs but since fostering Lady, and adopting her, we are smitten. She is gorgeous looking (as you can see from the pic to the left) and has such a fab personality, temperament.

 

I have just been to the doctor to deal with something else from my past that I suppressed. I had a miscarriage 12 years ago. No one wanted to talk about it after the event (went for my first scan, no heartbeat, D&C a day later), so I didn't talk about it either. I had no support so I just got on with things, pretty much blotting it out (although I was petrified throughout my pregnancy with Ro). I could tell you the year, and the season, but I had no idea of an actual date. Or even the month, to be honest. It's been eating away at me, so I've been to find out the date. I now have the date and can mark it - and grieve for the baby I lost. Knowing the actual date has brought a lot of stuff to the surface, but that's good because I can let go of all the feelings that I've squashed.

 

Sorry, that's all a bit depressing.

 

its good that you can open up about how you feel, thats part of the healing process.

 

 

Ceri has made bookmarks at school to sell at a mini fete type thing after school tonight. I'm under strict instructions to get there early and buy the ones he's made because his are the best

 

Such a generous spirited child

 

My children have had an Entrepreneur Week at school and today from 2-3pm they are selling all the things they have been making.

I am on strict instructions to go and purchase my daughters popcorn and my son's badges !!!

They were so excited this morning about it.

[Feeling Very Down]

for you today x

[May - R M F]

I have had a letter from my GP. His name is Dr A. Ramon and his secretary is Mrs S E Smith.

 

The typists reference at the top of the page is therefore AR/SES

 

 

My little man is unwell if anyone can spare some good thoughts. He was really lethargic this lunchtime and wouldn't eat so he had a good long sleep, woke up had an apple went to play in the garden and developed a raging temperature, went really shivery and just wanted to go to sleep. We've been to the docs who thinks its a viral infection but Ive to keep an eye on him overnight. He just wants to sleep bless him

 

oh bless him, hope he feels heaps better after a good sleep

[Feeling Very Down]

for you

 

I have suffered with depression on and off now for about 5 years, and I have been to my GP and have been on medication which I am currently weaning myself off slowly. I also went for counselling which helped immensely. So helpful having a counsellor talk with me about how I was feeling etc and also they put it all into perspective for me.

 

Its so true that when you are depressed, everything in your life seems so awful and you feel so rubbish about yourself, that you fail to remember you have been successfully in your life ..... and the fact you are helping the Oldies Club is a great example

 

As others have said, write down all the positive and negative things in your life .... this is something my counsellor advised me to do.

 

Depression is horrible. I have had the endless days and nights of tears, at times got so bad I thought I would have to give up my children so they could live with their Dad as I felt I was such a crap Mum. I used to drink and I stopped eating, cut myself off from my friends and family. I really hit rock bottom.

 

But now, thankfully after help I have come through the other side, and feel a much better and happier person.

I got a job offer this morning and start next monday , I could have started tommorow ( they are very keen ) but I am flying to Budapest tommorow with Di ( Helly ) for a Dogs Trust Seminar on teaching animal welfare issues to childern

 

Congratulations

And I second every who says what wonderful people you and Mark are x

 

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Daisy On Friday she came home from school without her scooter. She claimed she'd forgotten it so I told her to go back and get it (her last one was stolen from school last year) but she said the caretaker took all of the bikes & scooters that were left behind inside over the weekend so it'd be fine. She's come home without it again. She said she thinks she saw it in lost property this morning but this afternoon it had gone. So I asked if she'd spoken to a member of staff about it. No, she hasn't. Any sensible person would ask a teacher, receptionist or the caretaker where it had been moved to. Not Daisy So I've sent her back to school to find it. Woe betide she come home without it

 

did she come back with it ??

 

I feel sick.

 

I've got to go to my old house that I shared with exOH to pick some old belongings up that I left there. He emailed me and said if I dont get them they'll be binned tomorrow.

 

He wont be there but my beagles will be

 

 

 

I've been making cards and I rather like this one. I'm struggling to know if stuff is utter crap or not though. When you do something yourself you can't tell can you.

 

 

Shame about the photography really as every time I take a pic the cards look all wonky and it doesn't capture the colours as they are.

 

loving the card Michelle, hope we can see some others ?

Morning all

 

Work again, groan !!

 

Had a weird dream last night that I turned up at the Oldies Camping Event with just a tent .... no dog food, no sleeping bags, no blow up beds, no food for us or alcohol (for the cocktails) or pyjamas and spare clothes !!!

Better start making a list of things I need to take and stick it on the fridge .... as my dreams have been known to come true before

[Chocolate, Love And The Meaning Of Life...]

I have nothing to advise really

but found this topic very interesting to read

 

as now at the age of 35 I find myself single after being married for about 12 years ..... we split up 3 yrs ago, I fell in love 'or so I thought' to a control freak last year, who ended up violent so I soon kicked him out of my life

since then i have had 3 short relationships, which I ended, which have been crap and have not had a relationship since Sept last year. I just feel I have a history of failed relationships

 

I am sure I will meet Mr Right, but for now am enjoying single life and will see what life brings me

 

Enjoy your time with this man, live for today and not look to see what the future might be with him. Be happy
