Husha I watched it and enjoyed it but did you notice that even are the end when they were on their walk she still wouldn't say she loved him. What a shame eh. But at least they were back on track.

I'm now upstairs in bed so no ore tv watching for me. It's the middle of the night and my son has been up for two midnight feasts due to some medication he had today. It will be a wee while before I drop off again.

The wee one is still without a name and I haven't seen her for two days because I have a cold. My grandson was across playing in the garden this evening though and that was nice even though I just blew kisses from the window. I don't want any of them catching the cold. Can you imagine coughing and sneezing with a csection wound. Yikes!

Hushabyemountain98 · 02/06/2016 08:08

Hi notonyur. I enjoyed Lose weight for Love. Perhaps she was uncomfortable with the cameras there!
They were back on track. It must feel asthough they had a mountain to climb with all that weight to lose!

It's a shame the wee one still does not have a name. Better to take time to get it right! I am sorry that you have a cold and that it is stopping you from seeing your family. Still I think you are doing the right thing. I hope you get rid of it soon!

I hope you managed to get back off to sleep.

It is miserable outside again weather wise. The heating is back on as it is cold. Not good for the 2nd of June!

Have a good day xx

Weather here is also not very nice. Hush glad I'm not the only one who has put their heating back on!
Had a viewing on the house last night so fingers crossed.

Hushabyemountain98 · 02/06/2016 10:34

Good morning ThankGod.
Have just come back from walking the dogs.
The weather is not great!
Glad you have your heating on too.
Hope the viewing went well last night. Fingers crossed for you.

I have another valuation today.
Better get busy!
Have a good day xx

Hushabyemountain98 · 02/06/2016 15:02

Good afternoon all.
I had the valuation done.
Now it is sitting here in a soggy mess time.
I feel so desperate again.
I haven't heard anything from my eldest son either.
I sat and watched the programme about the Big C last night. Which made me cry. I thought who will sit with me if I am really ill?
All my life is at the moment is a series of losses.
I cannot see my way through it!
Sorry for the despair xx

OP posts:
WTAFF · 02/06/2016 15:13

Don't apologise Hush. Getting the valuation done is a huge step and I'm not surprised you are devastated.

Is there anything you can do to distract yourself?

It's a scary thought being single and thinking about illness. But I really do think that you'd be surprised how many people care about you.

One step at a time. Take care. Xx

Hushabyemountain98 · 02/06/2016 15:20

Thank you WTAFF.
I will have to try and find something to distract myself. Not sure what yet?
I may watch Brooklyn on Blu ray.

The thing is I was not just thinking about myself after watching the programme last night. I felt sorry for those people and their families. Then I felt guilty for moaning about my life!

I hope you are having a decent day xx

Hush thinking about having to sell your house is hard. I'm not sure how long you've lived there but if you are anything like me you've spent money and more importantly time and love making it into your home.
The future is so scary isn't it? I've had a conversation with my daughter about what happens if I'm I'll and she's away at university. I was really ill with flu about 5 years ago and nearly had to be hospitalised. What happens if I'm that ill again? I cried because my husband knew what song I wanted playing at my funeral. Anything and everything can make me cry at the moment.
I cried last night at Lose it for Love! Something struck a chord when she was talking about how she had changed from who she was when they met. I wanted to scream out loud but couldn't because of my neighbours. I know I'm not the person I was when I met him and I was trying to pinpoint when I'd become who I am now. I built my life around him which is a dangerous thing to do and it has now come back to bite me in the bum! I used to be quite confident and sociable and now I'm someone different.
I really think (hard as it is) selling the house (for me anyway) will be one step towards me moving on. I love it here but everywhere I look there are memories.
I wish someone could say to me 'its awful now but in X amount of time you will be happy again'. I could just try to get through it then, knowing that there will be light at the end of the tunnel.
What's that saying? 'what doesn't kill you makes you stronger'.

Hushabyemountain98 · 02/06/2016 18:56

It is so hard ThankGod. We have been here for nearly 20 years and last year we had a huge amount of work done and it is our home.
It is scary thinking about the future. I have a heart condition and it is such a worry being on my own. I am the same as you anything and everything makes me cry.
I know people say it will be nice to start a fresh. I am not sure that I can deal with that yet! As I said earlier all I am dealing with at the moment are losses!
Everyone tells me that life will get better but that is still hard to see.
On that happy note I better get something to eat.
Take care of yourself.
I think tomorrow I may take myself out for some retail therapy!

There is nothing anyone could say right now to ease this heartbreak so a great big booby hug to you all instead. Xxxxxxxxx

notonyurjellybellynelly · 03/06/2016 06:00

And on a different note. We mentioned Prosecco a few weeks back and I found the info from the tour I did - flat Prosecco is called Tranquillo. It's different to Frizzanti which is semi-sparkling

Hushabyemountain98 · 03/06/2016 07:48

Thank you Kirk. What a lovely thought❤️

Good Morning all.
It is very dull here weather wise.
I have walked the dogs.
Have had two cups of strong coffee and cannot get going!
I had a broken nights sleep!
I ached when I woke up this morning and I am not sure why as it was Wednesday when I was lifting stuff!
Trying to be a bit more positive today.
I hope that you will all have a good day xx

PiscoSour66 · 03/06/2016 12:17

Hi Hush. It's dull and cold here too.
That's not good having aches and pains. Can you get the boys to do some lifting? X

Hushabyemountain98 · 03/06/2016 13:39

Hi Pisco.
It is a little brighter here but not much.
Best we do not discuss the boys!!!
I hope you are having a good day?xx

Evening Hush and all.
Another weekend - I hear that this cold miserable weather is about to change?? We need some sunshine and warm air on our skin to cheer us all up a bit.
Hush, I think our children find seeing their parents hurting very hard and in some ways, that's right. But it does mean that their capacity to be there for us is limited - they have a lot invested in us 'coping' as we're the parent - right? Confused
I have Wine but no Cake. {flowers] for all. xx

Hushabyemountain98 · 03/06/2016 23:32

Good evening Louisa.
It would be nice to have some sun on our bones!
It is a difficult one with my eldest as we are so close and not seeing him or hardly hearing from him is really hard. Still he had an issue tonight and it has been non stop texting!
Then my boiler has been leaking and it has caused dampness in my cupboard and the worktop. My neighbour has fixed the leak. Just hope the cupboard dries out.
Well I better close as I am feeling really tired.
Have a good weekend.
Take care xx💐

Morning. Happy sunny weekend (hopefully).
The grass needs cutting again!
I'm feeling quite proud of myself. Only a little thing. We had a house viewing yesterday and when they'd gone we decided to have a takeaway. We used to have them every other week (sometimes weekly) but hadn't had one since he left. So I went and fetched it myself. No big deal I know but I'd never fetched one before.
These little things that I've never done before but manage (mowing the law is another one) make me proud of myself.
Hush hope your leak is fixed and the cupboard dries quickly. Have you decided what you are doing with your house now you've had your valuations? Or is it still to hard to think about it. If so don't rush into anything but do it at your own pace.

Hushabyemountain98 · 04/06/2016 10:57

Morning ThankGod.
I am sure you can watch the grass growing!
It seems to need cutting every 5 days!
It is good that we can do the little things we didn't do before. My husband always went and got the takeaway and he mowed the lawn. I used to cut the grass when he was away!
The leak is fixed hopefully. I hope the cupboard dries out I may have to think about having a new piece of worktop but we shall see!
I do not know what is going to happen with the house. I suppose that will have to wait until the financial stuff has been decided?
I have walked the dogs and the weather is nothing special.
Could do with seeing the sun!
Have a nice day!
Xx

Hi Hush. I hope you're ok?

Hushabyemountain98 · 04/06/2016 20:28

Hi WTAFF.
I have been up and down today.
My heart has settled down again.
How are you? How's the ceiling?
Have a nice evening xx

OP posts:
WTAFF · 04/06/2016 21:00

Ah - sorry to hear that you've been up and down. I'm glad that your heart is settled now.

I'm just watching tv with a glass of wine. I met up with my ex last night and I'm afraid that I did something stupid which I now regret.

I just can't seem to cut him completely out to my life. Sad
