Bad day and snivelling a lot.

[RubbishMantra]

Having a horrid day. Lost DH less than 2 years ago. Apparently I should be 'over it'. The most random stuff is reducing me to tears.

Shake some sense into me, please? Or tell me I'm not losing it?

Sounds like the cats are far more in tune with your needs than your relatives. Bless.

I'm so glad you're feeling a little better today, Mantra. And that you have sensible cats who know when to help. Cats are good, I find.

I hope you're going to do the dressing up and dancing thing. Or you could arrange to go out to lunch with your mother and wear those great clothes, and arrange for the restaurant to play Animal Collective when you're there. That might be fun too.

Mostly, though, I'm not surprised you're missing your husband. It's reasonable and good to grieve. Some counselling might help but cats, chocolate and wild dancing should help too.

The thought of doing an "expressive dance" in a bikini and leg-warmers, (striped of course) to, noodley music in a restaurant has cheered me. She would probably eat her arms out of embarrassment.

And thank you, my cats are brilliant. They help a lot. I doubt I'd have got through this without my 2 little lads beside me.
