Good afternoon Upset and happy Easter. I'm pleased to know that your son is doing well and that you've managed to arrange a visit over the weekend with him.
I don't have a lot planned for this weekend so am going to be spontaneous and just see what's going on in my local area and get out and enjoy it. Although it's windy here it's also warm and sunny so I've been able to get out this morning without a coat.
I know these long bank holiday weekends can be so difficult for many of you so I'm here for you if you want to reach out.

Happy good Friday all, mixed week for me comment from oh supervisor didn't help then last night neighbours friend went to say something into our ring doorbell my neighbour stopped her friend, but it's the thought of it. It's been my daughter birthday and my nephew arrived with her card it was literally a one minute visit hubby has taken it personally, where I am saying he could have posted it through the door he didn't need to come in at all. I feel like i am rambling on tonight just been a funny couple of days,

Hi upsetmum
That sounds so lovely I absolutely love taking my fur baby out walking, Iv actually found walking is a huge help. Although the weather here has been totally rubbish, we've had a little sunshine but not much.
we're now almost 2 years since the arrest and still hubbys phone is in a line waiting to be checked, I cannont believe the time this all takes. We were told 3-6 months at the start, I think the police full well knew that was a load of bull. I'm trying so hard to be postive and live our life's but everyday I'm thinking is today the day it changes again. Constantly carrying the fear of the media and everyone finding out.

Happy Easter all
I am now on two weeks Easter holiday and I am so ready for the break. These past 2 weeks I've been really fed up at work. I had been moved out of the busy reception and into a quieter office as they were concerned about my standard of work. But it's okay when they want me to cover reception like I had to for 2 days this week. It really feels like I have 3 bosses with the school business manager (who is actually my boss), the school business assistant and the office manager all giving me orders. I have been there for 18 years and I know how to do my job but sometimes it feels like they think I can't. It doesn't help that I've had a heavy cold and not feeling 100% so didn't feel much like answering the phone. I wish I had put 'do not disturb ' on my phone yesterday as I was really struggling to speak.
I am looking forward to having a break and recharging my batteries. Haven't got anything planned but I know that we won't be seeing much of our 15 year old as she has already made loads of plans with her friends and boyfriend. My oh is able to stop at home for the next couple of days as our daughter is staying at our other daughter's house and they are having a stranger things marathon. Then we have an Easter egg hung planned on Sunday, which our eldest daughter is very excited about even though she is 19. She's now on maternity leave as she is due in 2weeks, so we are looking forward to that and also my birthday next Saturday.

Confused x
Even in the rain it's just precious time to think of nothing but one foot in front of the other and see the furbaby enjoy themselves x
Honestly the time waiting is bloody horrendous
We were told on the day of the knock it would take about 9 weeks maximum, 19 months later, but we manage to get through it
As for the media that was also my biggest concern but we have no control over it unfortunately, but please try to think of how far you have come and how incredibly strong you are, try not to think of the what ifs (easier said than done I know) get through each day as best as you possibly can,
Sending hugs xx

Oh wow she could go in to labour on your Birthday! How lovely would that be to share your special day, you will have to keep us updated x
Enjoy your well deserved break x I am so sorry work has been difficult and that you have been full of cold , so speedy recovery, did they consult you before moving you away from your role? Do they know your situation? xx

Thanks Upset, it's so exciting and something to look forward to in these dark times.
Yes, work do know my situation and I believe that's the reason why I was moved. I wasn't consulted. My role hasn't changed; I'm just doing it in a different office x

We had a good day, went to the playground with the kids and made sure they got lots of fresh air. They also ate lots of chocolate today, which gave them a sugar rush.
My husband is building something like a garden couch for us at the moment.
He's good at DIY and it also keeps his mind off things.
His OIC texted him a few days ago that the contents of his phone had been downloaded now, he would review them and would update him in due course.
Which is really weird, because my husband's solicitor has been in touch with the OIC throughout the investigation and the police have had his phones and the forensic report back since August 23!
I wish you all a wonderful Easter xx

Oh dear I dont envy you with the sugar rush :-) but glad your day has been filled with some lovely family time xx
Oh wow the garden couch sounds lovely and like you said it keeps OH mind busy which is good x
This journey certainly takes its toll and the mixed information definitely does not help does it, keep focused on the positives as each day is another step forward xx

Hello friday check in
My life is very up and down at the moment. I go from total despair to managing everything. I think I want my old life back so much, but then realise this is not possible. Not sure if there is an answer. I know time heals but i am finding things challenging.
But, got a lovely walk organised tomorrow. Up in the mountains which is always good. It really is my happy place. The friend i am going with does not know my situation so at least i can forget things for a while. I am just focusing on that at the moment. Sorting my bedroom out ready for decorating, so that is keeping me busy. Spent time with my daughter today playing a computer game together, that was great fun.
I just need a break, a holiday and will get this in a few weeks. But before then thinking on going away on my own, to chill and relax. Never stayed in a hotel on my own for more than one night before so going to think hard about that. Sorry i am just rambling on.
hope everyone has a nice easter.

Hello lovely ladies.......
All ok this end. Couple of blips but now dealt with. Managed to get the mower out yesterday inbetween showers, love gardening, so rewarding when it's nice & tidy, come on sunshine!
The boy doing fine, still waiting for a response on courses he's applied for, plus little gardening, gosh it'd drive me mad - in prison it's SO slow. On Monday they had an MP visit, she looked round the gardens and spoke to my son about his work and praised the team....... he liked that, and why not, positives are SO important!!
Easter is upon us, not a lot out the ordinary planned but a welcome break from work to recharge. So it's cups of tea + m&s extra cheesy hot cross buns and perhaps sitting in a beer garden if we get some sun!
Take care my lovely ladies and as always my thoughts are with you all xxxxxxxxxxx xxx

Enjoy your walk sounds idyllic
I'm sorry it's been another week of uncertainty but you are keeping busy so that's good xx
I often think of just getting away but like you I'm not sure if I could stay somewhere on my own but there are so many solo travelers that do, maybe one day I will find the courage to book somewhere x
The sun is out here so made the most of a nice long walk this morning x

Hello everyone.
Big hugs to those who need them this week xx
I have had a better week. Work has actually been ok. The fear of someone asking about my OH has lessened and I was able to concentrate better this week.
My OH has had a good week too. I was out with family yesterday and he popped out and got lots of food for us to celebrate Easter Sunday. We haven't been the same with one another since the knock 8 weeks ago. So I am hoping for some normality this weekend.

Hi Upset, it does make me smile when I read the list of food HC manages to consume in your 2 hour visit. I'm so pleased that your relationship with your son continues to grow and that you had such a good visit.
