Far and Away

I have filled in an online form @Zoe7, a special one for this sort of situation, rather than the regular one on the main support site. It still involves a review process though, so I don’t know how long it will still take.

i suppose it’s too hot for you to feel like having a hot chocolate to help you sleep ?

In this day and age of everything being online or via email it is ridiculous that you have to fill in a special form and/or wait so long for such a situation to be sorted @Faith-and-Hope It is the same with @Former-Member and her NBN - very frustrating for you both.

No milk - don't generally have it in the fridge because I don't often use it. Have had another night med so see if that helps soon.

Any plans for tomorrow? I need to call to change my pdoc appointment and if I do get some sleep tonight I might head in to work instead of going Wednesdy. I am certainly feeling a lot better tonight so getting that out of the way might help with the nerves.

Good thinking @Zoe7 .

Its an online form @Zoe7, so the processes will come through online as well. It just takes longer because it’s a facility far seldom needed than the higher level traffic of forgotten passwords n such. I had two temporary shut-downs while I was away, but I guess this one was “strike 3” and went to lock-down.

D3 is home. It ended up being just 3 of the siblings, which was good for them all I think.

It is good they have each @Faith-and-Hope - a shame D3 couldn't join them but whatever is best for her is good too.

It isn't going to be as warm tomorrow as it is going to be for the rest of the week so if I go tomorrow it might be better. I am not going to push it though - if I am not feeling up to it I won't go until Wednesday. I would prefer to go early so it does depend on how much sleep I actually get tonight. Still wide awake so not looking good for sleep just yet. Extra med doesn't seem to be working so might be a night on couch island just resting and dozing when I can.

Tobes is already sound asleep on his blanket on the back of the couch so the doona is available for me

When do you start back at Uni?

I am sleeping on the couch here too @Zoe7. Finding out that WH brought “her” through my home here, especially in the state it’s in, has finalised my feelings about this place as much as the rest of the rubbish. I have to be here at the moment until we go through all the processes involved in being able to be somewhere else instead, but you know what ? Things like that are just advertising loud and clear what an a/h he is.

I can live with that.

I have been dozing a lot rather than sleeping too, and staying awake, distracting myself with other things if my thoughts start circling.

Hiya @Teej ..... 💜🌷

a/h is the nice way to describe him @Faith-and-Hope I have many, many other words for him I can't believe he brought 'her' through your home (I use that loosely) - so much disrespect and complete betrayal of you. He has certainly shown his true colours. What gets to me the most is that he is treating you as if you don't exist yet expecting you to bow to his every whim still - $%#&ing piece of sh*t.

I don't blame you for sleeping on the couch - I would be doing the same. Look after yourself too Hon - those thoughts certainly do not help but are hard to get out of our heads too hey! I get it - so much of the present circumstances to have to deal with as well as all that questioning of what He was exactly up to over the past years ...no wonder you aren't sleeping

Hiya @Faith-and-Hope , @Zoe7 .

i have just read back many pages. It sounds like both of you are having a tough time but finding resilience through it still.

@Faith-and-Hope I can't imagine going through what you are right now. I just hope that the new 'bit' sees it all and grows a conscience. Maybe she's a gold digger too and will bite him shortly on the bum. Sorry but I just am so hurt and angry for you.

ive not been around much but just checked in.

Good to see you @Teej

I think you and I are both so angry for our beautiful @Faith-and-Hope - if hate had a word right now it would certainly be Him - grrr!!

Yep @Zoe7 . It's hard to believe that a/h like him think it's ok to treat others like this. It's so grrr (I cant think of other words). How hard is it to respect someone who you've spent most of your life with?!!!
