Morning Trin
Hope you managed some sleep at some point
Is the kettle on yet?
Raining here today- I'm sure it's because I bought a BBQ and a hat yesterday!

Wishing you well and giving you a squidge x

But you are achieving a lot, and grief makes everything a huge effort.

You need some downtime to process what's happened and just indulge yourself.

You're doing brilliantly, don't worry about what you can't do love.

Trin - Just popping in to say goodnight and to say I got your PM, replied and am on it! Grin

Night lovelies xxx

Oh and btw, YOU ARE BRAVE, YOU ARE STRONG, YOU ARE FIERCE. YOU'RE TRINITYRHINO!, YOU KNOW THAT, RIGHT? :)

Remember why you called yourself that? A Rhino is strong, tough, armoured to face the world, armoured to face the fight and win...... One Day, Hour, Minute At A Time.

You are awesome. We're all here because of you and the girls, for Cliff and for everyone in his life too. xxx

Just checking in, Trinity.

Hope you are asleep in that lovely new bed.

I think of you often during the day - big hugs.

TrinityRhino · 29/05/2013 05:04

I this you are very brave to try, not sure I could.
There was a spider on the back of the bathroom door & I didn't see it til I sat down on the loo. It took me about 20 minutes just to get out of the bathroom. I'm a bit of a wimp where spiders are concerned. Blush

WandaDoff · 29/05/2013 09:25

That was yesterday by the way, forgot that bit.

TrinityRhino · 29/05/2013 09:28

lol wanda
I cant stand them
there was a massive one in the bath two days after cliff died and me and the three girls spent about 30 mins shuddering, and throwing things at it till it stopped running around and then I paid dd2(by far the bravest of us) 2 quid to grab it in tissue and chuck it in the loo Blush

this thing was HUGE
it had a motorbike and everything

TrinityRhino · 29/05/2013 09:28

and I know I know I'm not supposed to pass on my fears but in the circumstances I just couldn't manage

Morning :)

Now that you have your charger and your Mac back up and running, BACK YOUR PHOTOS UP!

YOU CAN USE THIS, HAVE A LOOK HERE or/and get a memory stick and put them onto it. That way you can see the photos whenever you want.

I swear it wasn't me in CDD1's bedroom this morning! Grin

I know that this week is going to get harder the longer it goes on, the nearer it gets to the funeral. Make sure that you take your meds, even if you set an alarm on your phone or ask someone to remind you each day to take them, you need to keep taking them on a regular basis, try and take them at the same time each day, every day sweetheart.

What else can we do to help, other than the obvious. If only..........

Do you need anything? Is there anything that the girls need for the funeral or want to do for Cliff that we can help organise?

Please just say.

Sending you love, and lots of Huggles? from me and Nemo xxxxx

Mouseface · 29/05/2013 09:36

PMSL at it 'had a motorbike and everything' Grin

We have them like that here, massive feckers! Hairy Bikers for sure! Grin x

WandaDoff · 29/05/2013 09:39

I remember being stuck in the bathroom with DS1 when he was about 5 (15 now) , & there was a spider on the sink, that moved every time I made a move towards it.
We were both squealing like pigs & I knew that the main reason he was squealing was because I was, but I couldn't stop. Blush

Anyway, 2yr old DS2 came running in beause of all the noise & asked "what wong".
We pointed at the spider & he said "I get it Mummy" & splatted it with his hand. Grin

TrinityRhino · 29/05/2013 09:42

morning mouse right back at ya
I have managed to get hold of an external hard drive to put all my everything onto Smile
