Hope your day's going well,

PMSLBrokeMN · 27/04/2009 12:48

Today's inspirational song is brought to you by The Moody Blues - enjoy!

EverySingleStar · 27/04/2009 12:53

Hope you're doing well today Stars. My first post on here but have been watching your thread all month. Hope you get enough courage up soon to make the move for your children and yourself.

Someone's going to have to make a new thread soon!

BillSilverFoxBuchanan · 27/04/2009 13:36

Morning Stars, hope that you're having a good day so far and have managed to get in touch with WA re; space

starsnstripes · 27/04/2009 16:07

Hi everyone.

Having a really down day today.
Did'nt sleep much at all last night and as a result was sleeping most of today and now have a banging headache.

Sorry to let everyone down,have'nt been very productive at all today.

Just feeling very tearful and scared of the future.

PMSL-thanks for the song.
I like the Moody Blues and the song is very apt.

theDreadPirateDavina · 27/04/2009 16:10

Don't worry about being productive - can help with stuff on Wednesday. Just look after yourself OK? [stern stare]

GypsyMoth · 27/04/2009 16:10

well we all have down days stars!! tomorrow will be better! have not been online for a while,so not sure where you're at with regards leaving?

Flibbertyjibbet · 27/04/2009 16:12

Hey you are not letting anyone down. you are still in a sort of transitional stage.

You'd be letting us all down if you came on and said 'I've decided that dp has been a bit nicer this past week, I don't want to upset him so have decided to stay after all'.

Its just so natural for you to be tearful and emotional and scared.

Flibbertyjibbet · 27/04/2009 16:19

Never mind today, at least you got a rest.

there's always tomorrow

Hope you manage a stress free evening.

PMSLBrokeMN · 27/04/2009 16:24

Hey, {{{hugs}}} - it's been a foul, dark, windy rainy day, I defy anyone to feel cheerful! Don't worry, you can be yourself here, no need to put on a brave face for us. You go and do whatever you need to make yourself feel better, don't go apologising for being human!

Flibbertyjibbet · 27/04/2009 16:26

987 posts.

You're nearly as popular as the washable nappies threads

Can someone tell me where to go next or have we already been told (ahem) recently?

(not wanting to leave a trail)

norksinmywaistband · 27/04/2009 16:28

we were told last night I think, flibberty, i could link but dont want to leave a trail

theDreadPirateDavina · 27/04/2009 16:31

Flibberty - look back in my posts - we can delete the link in a couple of days

mistlethrush · 27/04/2009 17:42

You're facing a huge change Stars - and its not at all surprising you're feeling emotional. Tomorrow's a new day and hopefully you won't have had such a bad night.

Wednesday's not far away now and you'll have more support again then.

starsnstripes · 27/04/2009 18:23

Quick message before H gets in,whenever that will be.

If ever I needed a jolt in the right direction.
I remembered something that happened yesterday regarding DS.

DS was being cheeky to me and H said to him
"Don't talk to your mother like that"

DS replied
"You do"

So instead of H saying I know I should'nt it is wrong.

He replied
"Just because I do does not mean you can"

Says it all really.

Then just a few minutes ago DD was whinging about something and DS came in the kitchen and said to her

"will you be quiet and stop whinging"

So turns to me and says
"DS is copying daddy that is what he says to you"

All very sad and a wake up call when I need one.

It's been raining and dull here today also.
Need to get my act together for tomorrow as DS has an appointment in the morning .

Thanks for the song flibberty ,I was singing in my head "the sun will come out tomorrow" before I opened the link.

leonifay · 27/04/2009 18:29

hi, i've been lurking on this thread, you've had so much great advice from other people, i havent had the courage to type anything. i just wanted you to know that i am also waving pom poms for you. adn really hoping you leave soon, when the time is right for you. the sooner you can get your DC's away from that kind of thing the better.

go stars

Flibbertyjibbet · 27/04/2009 18:32

Shall we just fill up this thread another 9 posts? You will be fine with the appointment tomorrow as its for one of the children. You seem to manage fine with those, its just when its something for yourself all your anxiety creeps in and overwhelms you.

Another for you. Since we moved recently we walk to and from nursery. i get there today and ds2 has had 2 accidents so he used his spare clothes. He is there in his tee shirt and an 'emergency' pair of pink flowery girls tights with no undies! He had to walk home like that like a panto prince!

Flibbertyjibbet · 27/04/2009 18:33

You can think of all of us mumnsetters as the other orphans in Annie all singing along and jumping on the beds!

Your h obviously is miss hannigan

theDreadPirateDavina · 27/04/2009 18:35

Enough of a wake-up call yet?

Ready to go yet?

Did you phone WA today? I'll phone for you tomorrow shall I? Post the response here?

Hope H comes in late and too 'tired' to cause trouble... You don't need any more of this in your life.

And for poor DD...

Flibbertyjibbet · 27/04/2009 18:39

(bloody hell that dreadpirate can be bossy, I bet she's a teacher)

BillSilverFoxBuchanan · 27/04/2009 18:40

Sorry to hear that you're having a down day Stars.

Don't worry about letting anyone down, you've done no such thing - we're all here to support you.

I can't believe the response your H gave to DS. I hope that such incidents help to build your strength and spur you on. Your dcs are still young and there will be plenty of time to show them what normal adult interaction is like once you're all out of there and living your fabulous new life

BillSilverFoxBuchanan · 27/04/2009 18:42

I heart DreadPirateDavinas bossy side

theDreadPirateDavina · 27/04/2009 18:43

8-)

Flibbertyjibbet · 27/04/2009 18:44

I'm having 1000!
