And do you get really smelly wind with cheese like me?! I bet it's that GrinBlushWink

AnyNameWillDoRightNow · 12/08/2016 23:41

pensice tell me about your dogs...what are they? Tell me about their characters.

I only haven't because of dh, I can't hurt him. And me hurting me hurts him. But he's gone for a while and this time of year is hard. It got harder today. It feels like a string of excuses when I think of it all but I can't. I have thin skin and I don't cut any more I burn. I can't do it. I scar even from a scratch. My burns are awful. I have to cover everything or put up with questions or knowing looks

That sounds hard on you, rightnow, but you've done this for a whole year , keep hold of that thought.

When is Dh back?

AnyNameWillDoRightNow · 12/08/2016 23:45

He's back on Friday. A week today. I'm usually strong. I've just been knocked for six today. I refuse to cry. Jaw us shaking but I refuse the tears

I'll be counting down the days with you.

Crying isn't too bad is it? Can be a good safe release of emotions.

I'm a cryer though, so may be biased Wink

I'm saying to myself that I'll go to sleep at midnight but in truth I'll probably be playing games apps later. ATM I'm playing Candy Mania and Angry Birds Pop. It doesn't matter, I don't have to get up for anything in particular tomorrow, though I feel bad if I stay up into the early hours and then don't get up until nearly lunchtime.

AnyNameWillDoRightNow · 12/08/2016 23:56

Crying isn't a bad thing. I just refuse it now. Too many tears.it doesn't change what's happened.

I don't sleep really any more. A few ours a night if I'm lucky. Bit it's amazing what you can get done in that time.

Minds going crazy. It actually hurts. I need some relief. I feel so angry. I'm not an angry person. I'm really not. I don't shout or get angry. But I'm so angry I want to punch or kick or burn or bloody hell something. Just something

I know what you mean about getting stuff done when you can't sleep!

I'm gonna put my phone on charge now rightnow, and it's in the bedroom (I'm watching telly on the sofa), so going to go quiet for a while.

Will say night to you later x

AnyNameWillDoRightNow · 13/08/2016 00:22

I'm sorry all but I need the relief sorry

UntilTheCowsComeHome · 13/08/2016 00:26

Don't do it sweetheart. The relief will be taken over my shame/disgust/hate

HeddaGarbled · 13/08/2016 00:27

You know the not getting angry and shouting is why you turn it on yourself, don't you? We're all angry sometimes. We just deal with it in different ways.

Have you been watching the Olympics at all? There's a lovely bit with a young female trampolinist getting a silver medal which was totally unexpected. Have a look on iPlayer.

deepdarkwood · 13/08/2016 00:33

Hey, anytime. I'm heading up to bed soon, but just checking in with you. How are you doing? Ready to hit the sack yet or are you going to hang on for a bit?

houseHuntinginmanchester · 13/08/2016 02:53

Hi rightnow.

Hope you are still safely in your cucoon. X

biscuitkumquat · 13/08/2016 03:10

Hi RightNow,

Have you been watching the olympics tonight? I've been watching the swimming. Michael Phelps got a silver tonight.

pensivepolly · 13/08/2016 06:30

I'm sorry, AnyName, I nodded off last night! Long week. I hope you got some sleep too.
Things do often seem brighter in the morning, and I hope this is true for you today.
Thank you for asking about my dogs. I have two - one very old one who was completely bonkers in his youth, but is now just very sweet, and a middle-aged one who is invariably cheery and good-natured and who seems to understand everything I say and senses my every mood, she watches and listens to me so closely. Do you have any animals?

AnyNameWillDoRightNow · 13/08/2016 06:42

Good morning all, thank you to all of you for taking the time to chat with me last night it really helped.

Thank you Flowers

Yes thank you, it's a new day and time to pull up the socks and get on. Nothing really planned for the day, just cleaning and general sorting of the house. I might get the paint from the basement and touch up the living room.
