That's weird WR...I've just started a thread on hayfever because mine is quite bad at the moment. I started it 5yrs ago and it just seems to get worse as they years go by. My eyes are driving me nuts - they're so itchy and hot.

I'm sorry you feel so rotten. Do you think you'll persevere with the tablets you're taking?

I wish I lived nearer. I'd gladly have your kids for you to give you a break. xxxx

thewiltedrose · 06/06/2008 21:17

Aww thanks whicpy thats nice fo you to say :-)

Do you know how long they take to kick-in? I hope it won't be much longer for you. Nothing worse, imo, feeling so crap and not being able to sleep AND being a Mum too.

What have you got planned for the weekend? How are the flowers? Bet they're pretty. Any choccies left? xxx

thewiltedrose · 06/06/2008 21:26

I have no idea apparently it can be anywhere up to 6 weeks to kick in.
The flowers still look lovely although a few were killed during me trying to wrestle them off of ds2
Only had two of the choccies saving rest for birthday as i cant get a cake now

whispywhisp · 06/06/2008 21:27

What do you mean about a cake?

thewiltedrose · 06/06/2008 21:45

I was going to set some money aside for my birthday so i could get a cake and some drinka nd stuff but im not covering all my bills this month so cant do it. Same as usual, baliffs get ignored and council want there rent otherwise im kicked out

Just reminds me why im on these fucking pills when everyone wants money from me and then gets angry at me when i havnt got it like i enjoy being in debt and having to hide from whos knocking on my door incase there coming to take my nans units away and my computer

whispywhisp · 06/06/2008 21:55

Hey!...you rant away...I'm sure it helps! No matter what I'll be here for you. Not much help I know but atleast you know there are people out there who will listen (or rather read) what you've put. A problem shared etc....

I'm going to watch this thread and will post every day to check up on you. I promise. I wish I could help more. xxxx

thewiltedrose · 06/06/2008 21:58

I wouldnt ask you to the flowers and choccies were enough to brigten up my day and i hadnt grinned like that in months

TheodoresMummy · 06/06/2008 21:59

Oh TWR, sorry you are still feeling so tired and crappy.

It will get better.

Every crappy day you go through you are one day closer to feeling A LOT better.

What you doing over the weekend ?

whispywhisp · 06/06/2008 22:03

It's nice getting flowers isn't it? I have to leave an empty vase out for my DH to get the hint and even then it takes days with loads of hints being dropped by the kids before he buys anything...and then he buys reduced flowers that last 24hrs if you're lucky! I had a bouquet deliivered once....lovely flowers but he then rang me and asked if I'd pop to the florist to pay for them!

I can really appreciate how life is so tough for you at the moment. What a worry for you with the debts, rent to be paid and constant threat of bailiffs at the door plus trying to make yourself better too. Do you get any help with the childcare? Have you got family nearby? xxxx

thewiltedrose · 06/06/2008 22:09

hi TM nope not up to anything as usual except avoiding cleaning the house!

WW no theres nobody around to help my family all live away or have there own lives and no friends as yet.

thewiltedrose · 06/06/2008 22:24

Thanks for looking in VS btw whispy told me it was you who mentioned my birthday to her so i have to thank you for the flowers she sent they made my day

OP posts:
whispywhisp · 06/06/2008 22:26

Sorry! I've known VS for quite a while now and she dropped in conversation you were feeling pretty low..hence the flowers!

VictorianSqualor · 06/06/2008 22:31

Whispy is one of my editors for my book and a fellow sanctuary-er!
Emailed you back WW.
I've gotta go now, poor DP has been at work all week and wants his VS to look after him
(terrible hayfever here too WW)
xxxx

whispywhisp · 06/06/2008 22:43

Hi and thanks VS...I've replied.

...oh yes...where's the next instalment? I've not got a decent book on the go at the moment. Come on! Pen to paper!

Right better go. I'm soooo tired. HF taking a grip and my eyes are getting verrrrrry heavy.

WR - much love being sent your way. I really do hope you get some sleep tonight. Please try not to worry about your problems. It will get better. Just keep yourself strong for not only you but for your two gorgeous boys too.

I've had many moments of feeling really low. I lost my beloved Dad recently. He meant the world to me. I lost him to a drunk driver. I thought I'd never get over the huge void he left in my life. But I am getting there - I will never get over losing him, especially as I had him for almost 40yrs, but I am picking myself up, slowly. I have to - I have a young family of my own and they get quite worried when they notice I'm feeling fed up. I'm not saying your kids are picking up on you feeling so low but my kids kept me going. They were my saving grace, iykwim. If it hadn't have been for them I wouldn't be where I am now.

Sorry. I'm rambling. Best go. Night night. xxxx

thewiltedrose · 07/06/2008 01:51

I came across a video xdp made for me while i was away for a week of him singing along to a song for me.

Cried for an hour and i dont know why but i feel better aout it now than before i saw the video.

i thought id dealt with it but just turns out i hadnt really thought about it.

Dont really know whats going on in my head now, Miss him so much but know im proberly better off without him. Feel like im only just realising its real i suppose i havnt felt anything in such a long time i didnt remember what it felt like to be hurting.

But i am, im hurting and im angry. Why does my life have to be shit from birth right up until this day? What did i do tht was so wrong to be tormented by life at every turn.

It cant just be me. they say bad luck comes in threes but what if my threes are different than yours?
What if my threes are:

Childhood
Adulthood
Old age.

What if im not supposed to be happy? What then? Do i accept it or do keep on trying, keep on falling in love, keep on daring to hope that it will all feel better one day only to have it all come down on top of me.

Oh i dont know, Im rambeling just felt so alone and needed to write something anywhere just to prove i exist. I know i exist but would anyone else really care?

OP posts:
S1ur · 07/06/2008 01:53

Tell me.

Tell me about yourself. Who are you?

thewiltedrose · 07/06/2008 02:03
