How are all my lovely owls?

Im feeling a bit brighter now that im ona stronger dose of antidepressants. DP seems to be pulling his finger out a bit more and i found a new course to study to keep me occupied.
I'm doing my SEN training
Its all online and is very interesting. (Although i have emailed them and suggested they may want to change their training because ot suggests autism is a linear spectrum when i know it isn't, you know, from actually being autistic!)

Becca19962014 · 07/04/2019 13:05

Hello Owls

Hope your all doing ok.

Me and the dc are off to the library in a while, we are going on a bear hunt Grin

Becca19962014 · 11/04/2019 13:32

I'm having a shit day. It's lovely weather and I just wanna go for a sit outside but have landlord inspection tomorrow and can't bend over as have a sinus infection. Terrified. Had a very difficult GP appointment as discussed things I'm really struggling with, not least the anniversary of my godmothers sucide anniversary over Easter and pressure to return to ex (who was abusive).

Everything feels impossible at the moment.

Am going to hide pinks suitcase so she doesn't go away and abandon me! pink you need some food.....

Mummylin · 11/04/2019 21:20

Lovely day here as well. Becca I guess you are struggling to get stuff done before the inspection ? I remember you having to do that before. Shove stuff under the bed if there is room , surely he won't look there ?
Hope your ok Fatty
Pink hope you had a good time with your friend today.
New baby dosent cry much, but the other one is being a right horror. I guess it's combination of the new baby and not having 100% parents attention.

Actually that's not even an option, bed full of stuff on top and no room underneath as goes to floor.

My mental health is so poor I'm barely functioning at all and haven't been for months if I'm honest. I've literally piles of post and stuff I've not even opened in months and this is a fire inspection, I've no chance of passing it, one of the reasons it's so bad is I find it hugely comforting (I know that makes no sense!) I have warned them but even trying to sort it resulted in me being overwhealmed and have I have tried. I'm so useless. I've spent hours trying but it's resulting in seizures.

I found out this week that the stupid therapy I was doing is the worst thing for the problems I have and is why they've got even more of grip on me than before. Plus everything else I'm a mess.

Right now, getting out at all is a massive achievement. Managing without panic or anxiety or PTSD attacks is amazing.

Must go to bed as they're coming between 8am and 2pm tomorrow.

Becca19962014 · 11/04/2019 22:22

It's difficult when there's a new sibling! I remember it well!!

PinkHeart5914 · 12/04/2019 09:55

Morning owls

Lin It will be the shock to him having a sibling, he’ll get over it hopefully, I apparently hit my sister on the head with a bottle when she arrived home so I don’t think I took too well to a sibling either. My 3 were so close in age luckily they weren’t really bothered.

Becca Sorry to see your struggling so much right now. There is always so much for you to deal with. Hope the inspection goes ok then that is 1 thing dealt with

Me and dh are going away tonight on our own 😃 mil is going to baby sit and look after pink rabbit. We are going to a hotel and to have a nice meal out tonight then tomorrow to Santa pod to watch some racing.

Mil is aware Becca needs feeding and I did a shop yesterday so the snack cupboard is well stocked

Becca19962014 · 12/04/2019 10:16

Damn you found your suitcase. Glad MIL knows to feed me and what to feed me. I hope pinkrabbit isn't offended by rabbit shaped treats!

Inspection was a disaster. They knocked things over and trapped themselves in my room Sad

I thought we weren't owl-ing anymore, but I'm so glad you're all here! I wish I'd looked for you sooner - it's been a crazy few weeks!
I've had a quick catch up on the thread, excellent baby news lin crosses legs at the thought of an 8+lber! good to see you pink and becca. Fatty I'm sorry things are so shit for you at the moment, I hope meds are still working for you a bit.

I have big news... I left DP just over a month ago. Dropped the kids off to school on the Monday morning and declared myself homeless due to domestic abuse. One of the hardest things I've ever done. We spent 4 weeks in a room in a shitty shared house, but on Thursday we got our own place. It's still 'temporary' but we can be there until we get an offer of a permanent council house, so we'll be there at least a year. It's been a rollercoaster month, but I feel so much better for it all

Mummylin · 15/04/2019 01:03

curtains how lovely to see you. I am so happy for you that things have improved. I know it's a hard thing to make the break, but you have done it and feel better for it, it has to be for the good. I hope you won't have to wait too long for a permanent place. 💐

No news here aside from a nasty cold and feeling dreadful.

Mummylin · 15/04/2019 17:22

Think you may of passed it to me Becca my throat is sore and my neck feels swollen and my eyes don't feel like they belong to me, something is on the way for sure ! Feeling extra tired at the moment too, will rob fall asleep in front of the tele tonight !

I have a headache today. Sad

Becca19962014 · 17/04/2019 10:04

Has anyone seen pink ?? Sad

Becca19962014 · 17/04/2019 10:04

Hope your feeling better fatty !

PinkHeart5914 · 18/04/2019 11:32

Hello owls

Curtains Sorry to hear this but good on you for doing it. Seeing a bad relationship damages dc in the long run so if the relationship is no good, you have to walk away for the dc sake as well as your own.
Being in a room and temporary accommodation, will all be worth it. Time moves so quickly and things will get so much better, resulting in a happier you and children.
Your very brave and a good mum for taking this step Flowers

I'm here Becca I've been feeding you, behind the sofa.

My weird children all ate hot cross buns at mil this morning, seriously what kind of children eat them horrors?

Becca19962014 · 18/04/2019 12:45

Ah. Found it!

Am not having the best of days. I'd planned to go spend some quiet time in prayer at a chapel but got there to find it was full of kids. Though I understand they take priority it would have been nice had my booking (last night) been refused as I could have tried somewhere else.

Am feeling really upset at the moment. Crying a lot. Managed to get my meds for today got to go back for tomorrow's as so upset. It's the anniversary of my godmothers suicide this weekend and I just can't get it out of my mind. Worse people keep saying happy Easter to me and the place is rammed due to lovely weather so nowhere is quiet.

Last Easter was last time I saw her and she was really angry with me. I spent the week praying I wouldn't see her and was glad when it was over. I'd no idea I'd never see her again or apologise. I really let her down.

I love hot cross buns. Though I can only have non traditional flavours now due to sugar so I've got small chocolate chip ones and blueberry and maple syrup. The fruit ones have huge amounts of sugar in.

Becca19962014 · 18/04/2019 12:46

I hope I won't be asked to leave now...

HerRoyalFattyness · 18/04/2019 20:18

I love hot cross buns too!
The chocolate orange ones from sainsbos are nasty though Sad

Becca19962014 · 18/04/2019 21:44

Ah well we don't have a sainburys round here at all!

I hope I won't have to move out! I like living behind pinks sofa with pinkrabbit
