Morning trinity. Hope you got back to sleep. Snotty insomnia is shite at the best of times.

Hope you're feeling less full of snot this morning

I hope that you managed to get some sleep.

Colds coming at this time of year are miserable somehow - you expect them in the winter but it should nearly be summer by now! I hope you're feeling a bit better today.

Very impressed with the speed of response on the overpayment issue! If you do get a new bed, just make sure that you're going to be able to get bedding for it relatively easily so that it doesn't become a hassle.

Morning, Trinity, hope you got some sleep and the snot is waning. I think of you and your girls every day.

You are positively heroic.

TrinityRhino · 17/05/2013 09:34

morning all
washed up
fed chooks
lolly's had a wee

Have you got anything you can take for the rivers of snot?

I'm sure that someone more technical will be along, but the macbook charger sounds as if its a problem that is likely to be solveable, even if you can't get to them right now (which I know must be very frustrating).

Have you all managed something to eat (what ever that might be)? All the rest sounds very positive - I know it must be a struggle but you're doing so well.

AgathaF · 17/05/2013 09:47

Trinity you are a wonder-woman to be keeping on top of everything as well as you are doing.

Hope you sort the macbook charger out soon.

Trin, its food, if they don't have an ideal diet for a week or two its not going to kill them.

Have you got anything in the house that you might be able to manage? Or perhaps a glass of juice at least?

TrinityRhino · 17/05/2013 10:06

ive had a glass of fanta

OP posts:
mistlethrush · 17/05/2013 10:08

At least that's going to help you not be dehydrated. Smile. Brew ? Lots of fluids might help and certainly won't hinder with the cold.

mummylin2495 · 17/05/2013 10:28

Trinity hope your cold soon clears up. You are probably quite vulnerable to any germs around at the moment. Well done on being so stoic and holding it together. Thinking of you.

Jux · 17/05/2013 10:31

Could you manage a banana? They're great nutritionally.

knittedslippersx3 · 17/05/2013 10:39

Hi Trin, I'm a lurker. I posted on the last thread sending you love and strength. Just wanted to do the same on this one. Although I don't post often I do check in every day to see how you're doing and to read all the amazing messages of support you are getting on here. Doughnuts for breakfast sounds pretty good to me!

Some people swear by Vicks rubbed on the soles of your feet.
I like a few drops of Olbas Oil on a tissue to sniff, if you persevere it does clear your head.
Excellent news that the girls have slept better. They must be reassured by the way you are holding it all together.

TrinityRhino · 17/05/2013 14:22

I cant bear the thought of stuff on my feet. but I always smear vicks under my nose when I have a cold. csnt find the olbas oil but normally puts drops onto my top.

ive eaten chocolate
my friend has made a lasagne for our tea.

I can't believe how strong you're being. You really are fabulous.

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 17/05/2013 16:36

Chocolate's good, lasagne's even better, specially if someone else made it!

Are you still streaming?

IDismyname · 17/05/2013 16:57

Trinity - I've seen your posts, and just wanted to send you my prayers and hugs to you and your children.

Your strength is amazing - you blow me away.
