Hi, everyone!

Would take too long to send individual messages but hope that each and every one of you is ok.

Am a bit like an anxious mother hen; want to know if cafe went on the date and, if so, hope that it turned out well!

MrsShrek3 - We will all support you in your sadness; this thread has helped me so much during the last few weeks. Was much easier to unload on here rather than RL!

Am going to bed soon and, for the first time since I split from my XP , have not switched on the electric blanket. Could not bear getting into a cold bed for all this time (even during the hottest nights!). It stays on all the time! Pathetic, isn't it, that I have been crawling into a hot bed which has been empty all night?

jynier · 08/04/2013 02:54

This is such a stupid and pathetic post - I couldn't get into my bed! Had to turn on the electric blanket and am waiting for it to get really hot. Thank you, XP and OW, for turning me into such a gibbering and needy idiot!

SummerDad · 08/04/2013 03:03

Hi Jynier, I am awake still?

jynier · 08/04/2013 03:10

Hi, Dad! Where have you been?

I feel so stupid.

SummerDad · 08/04/2013 03:11

i was asleep and just woke up and came here found your posts is everything alright ...

jynier · 08/04/2013 03:27

Yeh, Dad, apart from a massive dose of self-pity!

Just couldn't get into bed; suppose that I've been deluding myself that I'm snuggling up to my XP when the bed's warm. Very silly as it does not stop vivid dreams and nightmares. This has been going on for far too long and I know, I KNOW, that there are so many people on here who are trying to cope with very serious problems!

KittyAndTheFontanelles · 08/04/2013 04:13

I'm up. Littlekitty has decided she's awake and wants to play...again. The same thing happened last Sunday. The funny thing is, both days we went for a walk down the river and went out for tea. I wonder if there's a correlation? Restaurant food keeps her awake? She isn't unhappy or uncomfortable, just wants to play Hmm

mini smoke smiles received with joy thank you Grin

themidwife partying hard obviously agrees with you Wink

Mrs she had been sleeping well after your beachy excursion so obviously needs another trip. You free tomorrow?

Also, sorry you are feeling sad Sad

Are you there cafe?

Hi summerdad Smile

jynier I'm sorry your bed feels so lonely Sad

Sorry to hear about the 'downs' Mrs and jynier. We can't wipe out the feelings, but here to hold a hand.
Yes, cafe how did it go?

Midwife99 · 08/04/2013 18:50

Hi guys - I know we have a larf & banter but we are here to hand hold during those tricky times Mrs, Jynier & Cafe. Lord knows we've all had them one time or another here & you've all been great support Thanks

Minimammoth · 08/04/2013 20:46

Oh dear my DH has decided that watching myth busters is preferable to Mrs Thatcher. They're polishing poo.
Jynier I am sending you a giant teddy. Didn't we used to have a bear emoticon? It must be the cutbacks.

KittyAndTheFontanelles · 08/04/2013 21:18

Midwife99 · 08/04/2013 22:12

Ha ha yes it did seem that way. Not seeing the bears my side!

His stance is that she did a lot less damage to this country than Tony Blair & Gordon Brown. He was born in 1992!!!!! Grin
