oh ok, yes that is difficult, please remember it is only one persons view and only a diagnosis, it is not who you are, it is what you are suffering from, that letter is no more than if someone had a broken leg and it explains how it is broken, it is only describing the symptoms not the person.
You are a wonderful person Karen, that is all you need to know.
My angel that is so sweet, you are the only person i trust too, and you know most of my secrets, things i have told no one, you are the first to hear a lot of it, you are the only one who knows now. not even my family knows a lot of what i have told you.

@hiddenite I found it very strange to read my state wardship file. Processing all the things written about my mother father, siblings and myself has taken a while ... I read it and then put it away for a few years then read it again later. Eventually I am calmer when reading it.
I wasnt too keen on sushi .. but then came to like the little hand rolls ... we used to buy them for $2.50 each and then another choir member found another place where they are only $2. I prefer sushi with brown rice now, and look for that if possible.
@Jacques you have had a big few days ... it would stress most people to deal with extended family rellies and then your mum getting sick. Give yourself plenty of leeway and tolerance.
They say christmas day is going to be hot too ... do either of you have plans?

Yes i am trying Karen, i am having a very quiet night, so that is nice, i am so tired though, but can't sleep.
Thank you for the encouragement Karne, it means a lot comming from you 🙂

Hi dear @Appleblossom,
It has been too much for me, but i made it, mum made me not tell the family she was in hospital, so none of them know, i delt with it on my own without family help, none of them live close by anyway so their was not much they could have done.
I think the worst of it is over i am hoping, the doctor did not call, so that has to be a good sign, right?
i hope you are going to have a nice Christmas @Appleblossom, what have you got planned?
Christmas day is going to be cool here :), i am on my own Christmas day, so i am going to load up on a roast chicken and triffle, and maybe squeeze in some Pavlova 😄 i have some good books to read to keep me entertained.

Yes my angel, i have to agree, but you can change this Karen, you just need to follow your own body and mind, listen to them, when they tell you to stop, you really need to listen.
OMG Karen is that a joke? it was a good one 😄 yes i know it is a bit full on, but it is what i have done for 20 years, to me all this computer stuff is easy.
Karen we all have special abilities, computers i am good, mechanics i call on you to help me, because you know cars 🙂
I miss you too my angel, so much.
what is Mr Elf going to get up to tonight?

Wow it was all too much for them, ooh well I am sure they will sleep well.
OH my angel, it is nice to have a little joke every now and again 😄
OH my angel my thoughts will be with you, I hope it is cool for you tomorrow, take your time and drink plenty of water.
I know, I know, I am a true computer nerd, I need to keep up with thee new technologies otherwise I fall behind, it moves so fast.
yes my angel, we are weird, but please never change, I like your just the way you are.
I am really tired, sorry, I hope we can speak some more tomorrow, thinking of you my angel, always.
good night, sleep tight, and don't let the bed bugs bite 🙂
Jacques
