Something’s not right

My special place

My special place

Well yesterday certainly threw everything off track. But thanks to some very thoughtful and kind people I was able to get threw it and continue.

I cannot say a lot about what happened as I am sure you all understand but need this support in place.

Things WILL be ok, just a lot to work out.

Psych visit yesterday sorted out some of the things and more things will be happening early next week.

I am sorry if I put anyone through any despair, but unfortunately what happened yesterday morning had to be done.

Thank you all for your continued support.

Re: My special place

Thats good to hear @outlander

I hope your breakfast goes well. We normally do bacon, eggs and pancakes for breakie. Then no real lunch and a big dinner.

Have you got many people for breakfast?

Re: My special place

Family feuds seem to rear their ugly head especially around the christmas period @outlander My mum is constantly telling me I have ruined her christmas because I won't have contact with my brother. She doesn't really car why however.

If it wasn't for my kids I think I would just hide xmas day and try to forget. Instead I have to relive things that I don't want to remember.

Re: My special place

i understand @Snowie christmas isnt really for everyone hey.
i dont have any christmas spirit it seems.
my one day off as well isnt a day off now because my youngest sibling is now sleeping at mine for xmas eve and wake up at mine xmas day. i guess at least the day tends to go abit quicker with cooking breakfast and all that sort of stuff

Re: My special place

If I could hide I would @outlander

It is just another reminder of all the crap that is happening.

I hope you don't get woken up too early. Do they still believe?

Re: My special place

If my kids are not awake by 9am @outlander then I wake them up!!

Just us for breakfast (and my mum). Then Hubbys mum, partner, sister, brother in law and 3 kids are coming for tea. So 12 of us in total. Not too many.

We will visit hubby's Dad after xmas. He lives about 2 hrs away.
