Migraine, meds and sleep. Today hubby didn't go to do volunteer work as he is going tomorrow and Thursday is their memorial day on Thursday - the day the woman's son committed suicide is the memorial day and it is 29/5 every year.

I was able to sleep today as hubby wasn't yelling on the phone - yipee!!!!!

Got up and had some lunch and then watched the tv and then and went and had a nanna nap. Hubby came up and said he was going out to do the grocery shopping so we can have some food in the house - about time given we had run out of food. Still haven't got round to making the soup - slack I know but I found the soup mix of dried vegies in the boot of the car last week - I was looking for some muslie bars that I bought and have lost and then managed to find the soup mix instead. Somewhere someone has my muslie bars and I am not happy because they are choc chip!!!!

Queen Bee called last night and was going on about my income protection insurance that I am not eligible for because I am not working/lost my job. She can't get it through her head how it works. I had a shower and she had called back about the book she had by Paul Clithorow about finances and she is going to send me information - mind you I told her I don't want any more information but she doesn't take any notice. I told her the relative overseas had got her stuff and she asked me if I had heard from him - talk about dementia!!!

Take Care All!!!!

PS May do the washing to night or tomorrow when hubby is not here. Will happen when I feel like I have the energy to do it - don't feel like doing it today - on a downer and been harming and sleeping so that shows how my day has been going - shitey!!!

Hi Mrs Studying,

Can I have one or two of your doona days please, I feel so run down at the moment. Fell asleep sitting up on the couch last night before my kids even went to bed!!

So Queen Bee thinks she's a financial guru now does she, just say yes and disregard whatever she says. I don't know how much money you got, but if it's a substantial amount you should probably speak to a financial adviser.

Washing can wait, it's never going anywhere. I know I'm just about to tackle putting some away - my house looks like a chinese laundry after yesterday's storm, had to hang everything inside.

Self harming hmmmmm - stop that you naughty girl!! I know... easier said than done. I really think it is an addiction (been there, done that). So take it easy on yourself OK.

Hi :)

Sorry to say but doesn't QBee have a life! Why does she interfer with every aspect of your life, it must be difficult. I guess her information may be of help but sometimes people like help..when they ask for it!

As for S-Harming, this is no good but it is a good indication of how you are feeling, yes shit! But seriously you seem to casually note SH when infact I suspect you are hurting are lot more than you reveal.

I truely hope you are ok, it does sometimes help to ease the pain, but, you know what I am going to say. Give yourself some self nuture today, I love warm baths, even be naughty and treat yourself to naughty foods. It's ok to have a doona day, we all have and sometimes need them

Be kind to yourself

Mrs Studying,
Doona day, u go girl - I have been having quite a few lately.
It seems like you are having a bit of a hard time at the moment, like Fly and Bluewave have both said, take some time out for you, the washing etc can wait.
Look after yourself, and hope the muesli bars find their way back into your trolley
Take care and chat soon
Lynne

study when was the last time u and hubby just jumped in the car found a nice coffee shop and just sat and watched the world go bye.Queen Bee has her own life and now its time for you to take control of yours. I dont mean this to be nasty but you isolate yourself to much.Even just sitting in the sun for 30minutes just letting your mind wander,you have got to break this cycle you are caught up in.TC

studying1,

I agree with Grannie. You and hubby are newlyweds and it seems all you do is have doona days and he goes about getting everything done so you can have food etc. I am not saying this to be mean, and I can tell you are going through a hard time at the moment, but getting out and about makes a difference.

The longer you stay in this vicious cycle the harder it will be to get out of it. Go out with hubbie and enjoy your newlywed period, as soon you will be long married like me and miss those early days (mine more so as it was pre kids, 4 of them!!!!!!).

Isolating yourself from the world will only make you more lonely and make you lose those that you care about. Once those people are gone, you never get them back. Take control of your life and make it what you want.
