Thanks Kirk.
I remember reading that book to both my sons and recently I gave it to my friends daughter.
I think my sons would have something to say about me taking their Dad back. Especially my eldest! I do have to keep some self respect!

Yay! Self respect Hush! (Thought I'd shout my way back in rather than apologise again Grin. )
I thought of this thread as I was driving home earlier and this came on the radio :

My ex went off with a woman 30 years younger than me "You didn't fight for me" he said after I dumped him when I found out Confused. It really helped that he was such a twat as it made it easier to despise him and move on - even though it raised difficult questions for me about where I had hidden my twat radar for so long.

Have had a busy day - up at 5.00am and worked all day but am now comatose on the sofa with the Wine. Monday will be my Sunday!

Hope the week starts with the usual small steps. Hush - I know that you're still devastated but wonder whether you're hitting that 'depression ' / hopeless' stage in loss - horrible and very wearing but - it is moving towards that latter acceptance stage. Don't mean to imply that grief / loss is a linear progression - it's not and we go backwards and forwards, sometimes over many years but, those tiny steps towards finding ourselves and creating a new life are happening. We're going on a bear hunt......

Ahh Louisa , wonderful post for hush , we may not have met but we are all on this journey together and as I am doing no contact with him I am glad you are all holding my hand ❤️

WTAFF · 04/09/2016 21:50

Hello Hush and everyone!

I hope you are well. I'm struggling a bit today. My anxiety keeps threatening to bubble over.

Hush, if that man who has caused you such pain has the audacity to knock on your door and ask for another chance, like Kirk says you come on here and let us know. I will personally hire a van and all us MNers will drive down to chase him off for you!

Wink chin up!

Kirk123 · 04/09/2016 22:04

Chin up for you too WTAFF, I can just see us now in the van I know my way to hushs town just left there on Saturday 🙈 Ladies you are all fabulous , fantastic , kind and my virtual back up ! Just taken my nytol as not sleeping again lately ! Could be men or menopause both of them I could live without ❤️

Hushabyemountain98 · 05/09/2016 08:03

Good morning Louisa.
Thank you for your message. I watched Gloria Gaynor. Many thanks!
I am glad that you eventually found your 'twat' radar!
You did have a long day yesterday.
I hope today is not so busy.
I have my Counsellor this morning.
I was up really early as my son had to get an early train.
He will be back on Friday.

I am still devastated and I know that I am not the only one. I am still waiting for the anger to click in but it hasn't happened yet, but I suppose we are all different?
I hope that one day I will find myself again and create a new life.
We are going on a bear hunt!🐻

I better take the dogs out in the rain!🌧🐶
Have a good day xx

Good morning WTAFF.
I am sorry that you were struggling a bit yesterday and that your anxiety keeps threatening to bubble over.
I hope today will be better for you.

I do not think for one minute that he will knock on the door and ask to come home. He thinks that he has hit the jackpot with her!
Thank you for being so kind to me though, as always!

I really hope you have a better day xx

Hushabyemountain98 · 05/09/2016 08:17

Good morning Kirk.
I hope you managed a good nights sleep with the help of the Nytol?
I had a disturbed night and I had to be up early to get my son to the train station. I have to put the bread on the tray to prove and then get the dogs out before I go to see my Counsellor.

The vision of a lot of ladies all travelling down in a van to chase off the baddie made me laugh!

I better go as otherwise I will be behind the curve. Have a good day xx

Morning.
We all seem to be struggling a bit at the moment. It definitely is a case of two steps forward three steps back at the moment but it will get better for us all. Hopefully! Another saying I like (similar to the bear hunt one) is when you're going through hell - keep going. That's what I'm doing. Just plodding on.
Kirk I swear by Boots own sleeping tablets. I find them better than the ones the doctor prescribed me. When I had my first lot of tablets I expected them to knock me out until morning which they don't do - but they seem to calm my brain so I can drop off and then when I wake up in the night they seem to help me drop back off again. I try not to take them too much now but it's reassuring to know I've got some in the house if I need them.
Hush I hope your appointment with your counsellor goes well and you feel a bit more positive afterwards. I've got an appointment with mine next week.
I had a lovely day out with my friend and a few others yesterday. Drank far too much! I've got today off - thank goodness.
The weather is meant to improve later in the week. I think a bit of sunshine makes everything seem a bit brighter.
Have a good day everyone.

Hushabyemountain98 · 05/09/2016 21:39

Hi ThankGod.
I think that we are all trying to keep plodding on. That's all we can do really!
I am glad that the Boots own brand sleeping tablets are working for you.
It is good that you have them as backup if you need them.

My trip to the Counsellor went well this morning and I felt more positive when I left. I hope your visit goes well next week.

I am glad that you enjoyed your day out yesterday with your friend and a few others. We all have to have too many drinks every now and again!

I hope you are right that the weather is going to improve!
It is miserable.
Missing my son tonight.

I hope you are having a nice evening?

Good night xx

Hushabyemountain98 · 05/09/2016 22:22

Oh well Kirk! The anger has to come out somehow!
Try not to do it again!
These men don't want to hear the truth.
As long as it made you feel better at the time?

Good night.
Sleep well xx

PiscoSour66 · 05/09/2016 23:33

Hello everyone.
Sorry Kirk, that actually made me laugh! Sorry. They're like bloody toddlers, aren't they? Keep prodding and pushing those buttons for attention. What on earth did he expect? Never mind, you gave him what for. He deserves a lot more, I think you were actually quite restrained. Don't worry about it.
I made my friend laugh when I was replying to a text from the twunt, saying out loud what I was really thinking but writing the nicest possible message back. Stupid bastards the lot of them.
On that note I better toddle off.....
I hope you're all well as can be.
Goodnight everyone xxx

Hushabyemountain98 · 06/09/2016 05:15

Thanks Pisco you made me laugh too!
I was woken this morning by my old dog crying. When I went in the hall there was a large selection of wee and poo all over my hall. It is not like him at all. I am so glad that I have tiled floors downstairs. I have cleared it all up now. I do not want that too often!
I hope that you have all had a good nights sleep?
Maybe you shouldn't hold back Pisco with your dh and message him what you actually felt?
I hope you have forgiven yourself Kirk? They are not worth it!

Hello all.
I hope everyone is well today.
It is nice to see the sun again!
I am feeling a little more positive today.

I have a problem with the skin under my bottom lip again. It is so itchy!
I think I will have to take some anti histamine!

Have you got your car back tartan? If you do I hope it wasn't too expensive?
My car is back after its service.

I better go as I need to get something to eat.

I hope you all have a good evening? xx

Hello Hush!

I'm glad you're having a good day. I think the sunshine helps a lot.

I'm off on holiday again tomorrow, so I'm really looking forward to that!

How's the older dog doing? Xx

Hushabyemountain98 · 07/09/2016 19:54

Hello WTAFF.

I think the sunshine does make you feel better!
I hope you really enjoy your holiday.

My older dog is not very good, I think I have a hard decision to make soon.

Have a great holiday xx
