Afternoon lovlies x
I hope you are all keeping ok and for those who have struggled this week I hope you are ok and wanted to send a huge virtual hug to you all xx
Well it's been a strange week for me, I changed shift Mon,Tues and Weds, started later and finished at 10pm it completely threw me of track, it was only due to staff sickness and a training course for someone else so I did my bit to support the other team members ( probably caused more havoc than anything) :-)
I am so glad its Friday I have literally just finished the ironing, I know my life is just full of excitement eh!
We are all keeping well, Furbaby was at the vets for her yearly injections (daughter took her) I just pay the bill, how is it so expensive!
I have an early start in the morning as have a visit with HC, the money bag is full I just hope they have a decent stock of crumpets and god knows what else, looking forward to seeing him , he is doing well xx he had a video call with his Tutor so will be able to tell me all about it tomorrow xx
I hope you all can manage to find something nice to do over the weekend and remember to be kind to yourself
Love sent as always xx

Hello Friday Check in, how is it that time again so quickly.
I've had a busy week work wise and have a mad weekend coming up with 5 Grandchildren at the house. My son has recently been able to add my daughters 2 children on to his SOR which means they can now be in the house with him (with supervision) for more than 12 hours. My daughter and partner are making the most of it and have planned a child free weekend away.
My son is doing well, he had a positive meeting last week with his offender manager and is now a few months in to the Horizon course.
To all of you who are struggling, try to focus on one day at a time. You might not be able to see it now but life does get easier and eventually the sun will start to shine, the birds will start to sing again and you'll have moments in your day when you can think of something other than the pain, sadness and despair you're currently feeling.

Hello Friday check in!
I've posted a couple of time this week as we had a minor development - trying not to give it too much thought as it just fills me with dread.
So we have just ordered a Chinese and have a bottle of wine chilling in the fridge. Nothing planned for the weekend except the 'big shop' so if the weather is good we might get out for a nice long walk.
Hugs and thoughts to all those struggling this week - may your weekend be peaceful and stress free xx

Although I'm struggling to find anything positive in my own world right now, I do enjoy the Friday check ins.
I'm running a bath, ordering dominos and hoping to find a film we can all watch.

I spent most of the day feeling sad, but have had a lovely afternoon with the children. So feeling positive.
Bedtime routine approaching. Let's see how I feel after that. I find they are angels or demons. Never in between!
Then some wine - amount depending on whether its angel or demons appear at teeth and lights out. This is when I miss him most. We were such a team with them. I just don't know why he did this to his family. Any mindless Netflix/TV recommendations?
*Clink* cheers

Sending love out to all tonight, read some really harrowing posts this week - I know it's so hard but please please never give up hope it WILL get better, in those early days you just don't see a way through the desperation fog, but I promise it will happen and the joy of life will return. It breaks my heart to feel such sadness.
So earlier Upset said she loved it when I swore! So that sums up my week - filled with more troughs than peaks - but hey ho that's how it is!
My lovely boy all good. Still in the midst of a virus lockdown in their prison. Treatment plan going well - he now talks to me about his feelings at that time - fills me with guilt, as a loving mum why didn't I spot his unhappiness? It's so bloody hard but I do my best for his sake to keep positive and move forward, not take backward steps.
So bless you all - have a good weekend and have a glass of wine - you deserve one!

Hello friday check in
Week quiet really just working. Going to line dancing. Went for a drink with my daughter last night which was nice, she does not go out much so it is a way of getting her out the house. It was only for a couple of hours but nice. Today meeting up with a friend who knows so no pressure about what to say about Oh which will be nice. Working overtime tomorrow so another short weekend. But need the money, so hey ho!
