I hope you have all managed to navigate through the week as best as you all can x
My week has been extremely busy at work but I only had a 3 day week, I had Thursday and today as holiday so a long weekend
Yesterday it was me and my daughter day, we went to London to see Mumma Mia, first time out out in 3 years, it was just amazing, dancing, singing and laughing (no alcohol involved either) just the best tonic I could have hoped for, it was nice to dress up - casual but smart and I actually put a bit of mascara on (I stopped wearing make up about 7 years ago) had just the best time with my babygirl x
I have a vist booked Sunday be strange getting up at silly o'clock as you know we normally do Sat visits, but as its FD I just wanted to see him, his father isn't in his life, its always been a strained relationship but he wants nothing to do with him ,or my eldest and daughter (totally his loss)
I know Sunday will be difficult for so many of you here but no matter what you will get through it, sending strength and love to each and everyone of you for Sunday x
Smile there will be of course lots of hugs when I see HC for you and our boy xx
Take care, love sent as always xx

So glad you had a fabulous night out Upset it can be just the tonic needed, a time to just forget this journey for a while.........
It must seem ages since you saw HC - can imagine you are looking forward to your visit and thankyou for our cuddles too - you are lovely xxxx
It has been a very eventful week for my son and the cogs are beginning to turn as parole is being spoke about. He has had a few meetings - all extremely positive, which is excellent.
Ive had a good week and a massive breakthrough - which I'm sorry but don't want to say to much on the forum itself, but another 'positive'......
my thoughts are with my lovely friends on here (old and new) as always xxxxxx

My week has just simply gone by. As I was reflecting on my week and thinking that I didn't have any stand out moments either good or bad I realised that I've become so accustomed to living life through the highs and lows that I've forgotten that we can have times in life that are drama free.
Upset, I'm so pleased to know you have such a wonderful time with your daughter and I hope you have a good visit on Sunday.
Smile, I love that you've experienced a big breakthrough this week and that your week has been good. I'm also really pleased to know that things are moving forward for your son and that the meetings are positive.
My thoughts are with all the people who have recently joined us on here and I hope you all manage to find a few moments to relax this weekend.

I'm trying my best to fill my days with good stuff. I class work as the good stuff as I like my job and it's a good distraction.
Counselling is going well - she keeps telling me how strong I am. I don't think I am but the more I think about the shit show my life has become Im starting to think I am handling it as well as bmcan be expected.
Got a few things to look forward to and just off out to yoga - hopefully will feel more zen like afterwards

Hello friday check in
Well i thought i put a post up, i certainly wrote a message, but obviously forgot to hit send, lol
This week been off work on leave.Busy as my son is leaving home and emigrating. I though my OH conviction would affect this but thankfully it hasent. But we have had very little notice of when he has to leave so been very busy helping him get ready. So sad he is going but glad his life is moving forward. More than my life is anyway!!!!
I am so glad you had a lovely weekend Upset seeing Mamma mia with your daughter. Its my daughters birthday soon so will be spending quality time with her, cant wait. Ocean i am always in awe on how you manage to work at improving your mental health. This is something i need to do. But i always seem to put it off. Something i need to sort out.
Hope you all have a nice weekend. X

Anxious girl prompted me to write - saying she was off to yoga.
I've started swimming after many years and it's done me so much good, not only physically but definately mentally. I'm proud of myself - I personally persued something I wanted to do.
i think with reaching pension age and the trauma of this journey it has made me realise if there's any thing I want to do, ------ IS to do it! I also was fed up of living life for others and not ME...
I strongly advise friends on here if there's an activity you fancy just 'go for it' - the distraction certainly helps your recovery and eases stress levels, if that makes sense......
Upset regularly mentions our 'strength' as a bunch, and we are 100% !!!!!
