Was just thinking yesterday that I seemed so much better about my ex and i breaking up.
Not so upset, bla bla, stronger.

Then this afternoon, I just plummeted, got really angry with DD4, going on a nd on, she wasnt even being naughty, just 'filling my brain', and I burst in to tears.

Just felt so angry with him for leaving us, felt like , 'thanks', we live a half life without you, I am just so tired all the time.

We get out as much as poss, I give my all to my dd, but today I feel very low indeed.

just feels so lonely.

She had a fever, and has a runny nose, hoarse voice, there's still so much going round.

dd2 birthday is 15/01/06(hope that is capricorn?)
It may be what you need ,having a break from the lessons for a week or two.If you are having a rough time of it the last thing you need really is the additional stress.
Yikes yes lesson 3

Must go to bed now ,dont want to but the prospect of the dd's in the morning is not one to face with a few hours sleep.I swear to god they are like Tazmanian devilseither that or the air round here is full of e number's lol!

Hope you have a nice day tommorrow
Will probably speak to you tommorrow night.

I have another on the 25th, only becuase my girl is of school and i have two friends who could help out to look after her but both are away over easter.

I might try and see if another freind can have her the week after this one. my dad lives down here, but works so not poss.

I am happy to be having a break from driving this week, with the theory it was getting to be a little too much.

What date is dd2 b day.

My friend from last nite is a scorpio! sorry not trying to sound like a weird new friend or something lol, just interested.

So you have your third lesson, thats brill!!

Dont be , the creeks end, or the creeks bottom, as we like to call it, was as grubby as ever!! Yet its the only place to sit on the quay.
I'm a capricorn, we love doom and gloom!!!

Nah, we are just serious, and forever finding solutions, or thinking too much.

Do you work 2morro, or do you have a day of rest.

its been lovely here today, bit cold wind but really sunny.
had an unexpected lunch at the Creeks by the estuary, my friend who i went out with last nite stayed here and we ambled down the hill for some nosh.

I havent seen them since last july, the language thing is always a bit difficult, but we get by. Lots of pointing, dramatics on my part!

I felt a bit left out this weekend, knowing they were all over his house with his new partner. Its hard to get used to, i have known them so long.

I am looking forward to the easter hols, our only broke uo thurs, so hopefully some decnet weather, and me and little one can get out of the house.

I love the spring, hate the winter!!!
