Is that Circle.... strange word.

Yes, I will "just sell the kittens"

but

I have no doubt been reading too much about cat birth and the whole process leading up to the "selling of the kittens"....

She is 11 months so will no doubt be okay, but, Oh I worry one will not feed and I will have to get up every 2 hours to feed it, or one will get stuck in birth canal, or one will not come out of amniotic fluid etc.

I worry way too much.

I wish i could stop but I cannot.

FelineOkay · 10/03/2009 09:44

very good for housework

FelineOkay · 10/03/2009 09:49

Gawd I sound so stroppy.

I cannot even hide it in my typing.

I worry too much about everything

At the moment I'm laying awake worrying that G'll not finish his school project in time and I'm worried about bills we have to pay and the stray hair I caught sight of on my chi...and the list goes on and on and on..

FelineOkay · 10/03/2009 09:58

Hahaha - stray hair.

Me too, I worry about the electricity bill, and the council bloody tax and the working tax credit people who over-pay you then ask for £££££££££££££££££££££££££££ back in one go.

I have been looking for grey hairs but have yet to find one , I think I am deluding myself, I must have one somewhere, I have not been to hair-dresser since, erm.... last year so I have HUGE Roots coming through and my tinted moisturiser is running low and it costs £21.50 so will be looking dog-rough this time next week. then there is.....cat litter, biscuits, children, disel, car tax, bla bla bla bla eeeekekkkkkk

[brain explodes]

You know. I think if that did happen I would feel better.

FelineOkay · 10/03/2009 10:00

I could go on for hours.

My car window-wipers are fixed but now the bloody battery has ran down again so I have to wait on my dad finishing work until I can go out today.

How is G?

How old is he now?

FelineOkay · 10/03/2009 10:09

Anyway, I feel the need to clean and iron and other exciting things, that's one thing I like about MN, I mean where else can you chat and clean your loo at same time?

Tn0g · 10/03/2009 10:11

< thud >

Don't tell me you were scrubbing with a loo brush down the pan whilst chatting on here

I feel nauseous now.

Tn0g · 10/03/2009 10:13

G's 11 nearly 21...I mean 12

He's grand, never better, not a bother on him.

It's me and h who are quivering wrecks with serious blood pressure issues, bulging veins on our necks and steam coming out of our ears.

good morning folks,not had a good nights sleep as we had reall bad news about dh,s sister last night,we have been told she only has about a month to live. I dont know how dh is really taking th newsas ive said before he tends to bury his head.I havent asked him a lot about it ,i feel he will tell/talk to me when he feels like it.She was due to have a blood transfusion last night and today they may have to drain her lungs again,hopefully she will then at least pick up a little bit from when he saw her on friday.Its all very sad.Her poor dh is suffering badly too ,he has lost so much weight in the last few months with worry.

wotzy · 10/03/2009 12:24

So sorry to hear that ml. How very upsetting for everyone.
I will pop on to scuttle thread later as that may be easier than spinning your head all over the place and posting twice. Thinking of you and your family.

mummylin2495 · 10/03/2009 12:32

for you feline

mummylin2495 · 10/03/2009 12:38

yes wotz it is awful for all of dh,s family.I feel so sorry for all of them but of course mostly for her immediate family.We are living here and they are quite a way from us so we dont really know whatis happening most of the time.We are considering cancelling our holiday.we just dont know what to do,we are due to go away on 21st april with some of my family ,but of course if anything happens dh wouldnt go and then i would stay with him.Maybe she will have a longer time than they are saying,i hope so because she wants to hear that her son will graduate,not sure when that is,but that would make her happy and proud ,i hope she gets her wish.

wotzy · 10/03/2009 12:43

So hard isn't it. DH's dad is getting better now and it was awful when he was told how ill he was, such a shock. Thankfully the op, did go well and he is recovering better than we all expected. Makes you appreciate things though doesn;t it.

I have to get on, will be back later I hope.

mummylin2495 · 10/03/2009 12:45

catch up later

Tn0g · 10/03/2009 16:03

Very tough for dh, M.

mummylin2495 · 10/03/2009 16:20

mummylin2495 · 10/03/2009 16:32

Tn0g · 10/03/2009 16:41

Sorry, M, had I'm helping G with this blasted project, so just dipping in and out.

Say, hi, from me to, Sparkles, and to all the others if you're in contact.

I'll try and get back on tonight but I'm a bit bogged down with prep work for classes at the moment, it's a feckin' nightmare.

Hope you're keeping well, seems like an age since we chatted properly.

mummylin2495 · 10/03/2009 16:54

mummylin2495 · 10/03/2009 21:36

more bad news re dh,s sis .The have given her a blood transfusion and there is no improvement in her at all.they were hoping she would feel a bit better,but it hasnt happened,Dh is going up to see her again tomorrow with his other sister.I am glad he knows the truth ,otherwise he would put off going ,now he knows there is not much time he will see her as often as he can ,and im glad. i have my two brothers here watching footi with dh and my mum is glued to mistresses ! so i sneaked away to pop on here,i will probably be back about ten.If your not here ,im sure we will catch up soon.!!!

wotzy · 10/03/2009 22:12

Don't come back on my account, I'm shutting the computer off. Enjoy your time with your family. I might go and read myself to sleep. Take care.

mummylin2495 · 11/03/2009 08:59

good morning ,i though i might catch you in your early morning chats but sods law your not here today ! dh has just left to travel up to see his sister in hospital.they are meeting her dh in the hospital. my dh had a message from our youngest grandaughter this morning on his mobile to give his sister it said " dear ---- i hope you soon feel well " and sent her a hug,she obviously didnt take in what her grandad told her last night,it bought a tear to my eye.But i have just spoken to my dd and she has now explained again to gd that dh,s sister isnt going to get well.Isnt it an awful thing for children to understand.After speaking to his other sis last night dh dosent think she will last the month at the rate she is declining.It seems to of accelerated so quickly in the last few weeks.I feel so sorry for dh.I know the pain he is feeling because i have been there ,but at least he has the chance to eventually say his goodbyes,i would of loved that when m sis died .Just one more chance.Sporry this is a depressing post first thing in the morning !

Tn0g · 11/03/2009 09:07

Oh M.

Sad news.

To say goodbye to someone you love and for them to know that they've reached the end.

To lose a sibling is very hard.

The person you grew up with and share so much history with, good and bad.

A siblings death really brings home your own mortality too, I think, doesn't it?

Tn0g · 11/03/2009 09:08

I'm kind of chasing my tail these days and get about an hour in the morning before work to sit down with my porridge and catch up on the thread.
