Morning all. Good to hear Tony’s had a little to eat .
I’m another who counts the Sundays coming round.
It’s not actually raining here but very dull and gloomy.
I’ve got to visit my cousin today. I’m not looking forward to it as I don’t know the way (my husband always drove) and I’m a bit nervous but need to rely on the sat nav and hope for the best.
Hope everyone has as good a day as possible and catch up with you all later
Love Lucy x

Milestones are tough. Hands here for you. :heart:

@Lisaj2019 thanks for letting me know your real first name. This group is great. Glad you read the forum too and join in when you want.

Morning everyone I actually slept some last night. Maybe it’s the sheer exhaustion of not sleeping well for days. I stayed up til 1230am reading trying to make sure I only turned the light out when really tired. Still it doesn’t make me feel much better.

Am trying to get to church. If I do I will light a candle for all. Plus if you can keep positive thoughts for my friends grandson in the states. He’s only about 10 a d had surgery last night to remove his tonsils a d a tumour. They aren’t sure if it’s cancerous or not.

I had to drive somewhere recently new and missed my husband too. Because if he didn’t drive he would help me get there. I used my satnav too. At the start I pulled over as I wasn’t sure which motorway to take. I kept calm and got back on the road. I made it to the place! Study the directions before leaving. You can do this. Xxx

Morning Ron……have to say your posts on here do give me a giggle…:grin:
My thoughts today will be with your friends grandson….so hope it’s good news for him. Cancer is so awful……it’s what got my other half…….and in a child it’s unthinkable. Keeping everything crossed it’s not that.
It’s wet and miserable day here in West wales….pretty fitting for the way I’m feeling on the 2 month anniversary……
But thank the Lord for everyone on here……the help and support we get from each other is what keeps us going.
Sending love to everyone today……

Morning Liro, morning everyone,
Yes, i will love you until the day i die he promised and he kept that promise, and i will until the day i do.
I wish i could help my son though, he is having a hard time, bookends they were.
I found another video on the hard drive the other night of Colin being Colin and sent it to Simon(son). He messaged me this am, i think it has helped a little, because the message back had a hint of a smile in the reply.
I have awoken to rain, rain and more rain so a day infront of the log burner i think is on the cards unless my brother rings to take me to Gotham indoor car boot.
Well the garden does not need watering…silver lining and all:)


Thank you all again, this forum is a life saver. X

Liz, I try to take painkillers, only when I feel I really need them. Co-codamol is the same as Zapain… i have cut down so much since R passed. Mainly down to exercising and having to do more. There are times I do need to take 2. I sleep better because the aches and pains are far less with them. Try taking one.

The weather was beautiful yesterday. This morning the wind is howling and the rain is pouring. A very bleak day in South Wales. I know many people struggle on Sundays, sending love and hugs x

Thankyou Maria
And everyone else who have suggested I cut down.
I have been taking 2 , 3 times a day. I will try one and see if that helps.
I’ve only been on them for 2 days, I hate to think what I’d be like after a week :ok_woman:

Thankyou
Love and hugs

Maria and Lisa - I love Wales!! When I first met my husband he was living in Chepstow. I lived there too fir a bit. He’s from up north in England so when we moved there we’d visit angelesy and other places on the way there too.

My friends grandson is Rowen.

Thanks all for lifting my spirits today.xx

Hi Lucy.
I made my first big (well it seemed big) trip the other week to pick something up being sold on facebook. I was so nervous but followed the sat nav. I probably was taken the long way round because the return journey seemed so much quicker but i did it.
My next drive alone day is to Biggleswade, stevenage but i have to psych myself up for that one.
Well.done you.x
Nicky
