What A Difference A Day (or two) Makes

I began last week with a feeling of utter dread.

I hate July... with a passion! As much as I hate January. After the last year and a half its got to the point where I start to feel sick and then emotionally withdrawn about a week or two before those months arrive (which kind of puts a downer on Christmas and my birthday!).

The reasons, as some of you may know, are because there are a couple of fairly significant anniversaries for Keith which have understandably been difficult for him, therefore consequently, difficult for me too (albeit for completely different reasons).

By last Monday I was an absolute loony (as is probably evident from my blog and a variety of Facebook status updates).

After much talking on Monday and Tuesday night, Keith asked me to come home to him on the Wednesday night. A surprise (a very welcome one) and a significant step forward for me (and him too possibly). Wednesday morning I got a text first thing telling me to go and read a blog he wrote called "Toni Scott - Wonder Woman". If you read his blog (which you should because its really good) you will understand that I reacted first with tears and a sense of disbelief and then with lunacy (I made Karen come down and read it too!).

Needless to say the message DID get through and I DID feel a whole lot better about things after I read it. I'd also like to thank Stephanie for her offer of support should I need it.

I came home to Keith and spent the night with him (it was stressful but that was down to family stuff and kids and fortunately nothing to do with where my head had been going in Monday). It was good to snuggle... which is exactly what we did... all night.

We did the same Thursday night too; Gemima was at her dad's so I headed back to SWF after work.

And for the record... Keith, I LOVE YOU TOO!!

Here we go again

I am a yo-yo... apparently... at least that's what I feel like.

Every six months I go through this.

up... down... up... down... and so on and so forth...

And now we're on to cycle number 4.

I know - its probably easy for people to read this and think they know what I am talking about and think I am being selfish or thoughtless... but I am so rarely selfish or thoughtless.

Sometimes I need to put ME first and its easy to judge someone when you haven't walked in their shoes.

I don't really have much in the way of emotional capacity at the moment.

So for now I am going to go and hide in my head for about a week.

Someone wake me when its over....

Happy Birthday to me!

Bloody Hell... 38 already!!

Had a really lovely birthday. Gemima and Aaron came with me for the weekend. Nick was nice enough to agree to a swap for Gemima so she could be with me today.

Due to recent event's in Sophie's life (see Keith's blog), she's been staying at Keith's for a few nights so it was a full house for the day, which was really nice.

We started with a very lazy morning and cuddles in bed, followed by a trip to ASDA (no change there) for food and drink. A very late breakfast (just after 3pm) was stuff with dips, which was very nice but more filling than intended.

Prezzies followed. I'd already had my prezzies yesterday from Mum (a really lovely gothic necklace), Jade (the little book of Goths, a small china bell and a small novelty teapot) and Aaron (two big lavendar scented candles and a box of multicoloures tea lights).

Today's prezzies consisted of an epilator from Keith - something I have wanted for ages (*grin*), a pretty gothic bracelet and necklace (sense a theme here?) and a fridge magnet from Gemima, an ornament and fridge magnet from Sophie and Sam... and last but by no means least, an absolutely beautiful silver dragonfly bracelet, which was a joint present from Karen and Keith.

Made enough food to feed a small army and Jade and Pete came over to the house to spend the evening with us. It was lovely to see them and much beer, Black Vodka and JD (and other strange blue stuff) was drunk to celebrate.

Thank you Keith... and all the rest of my wonderful family. I had a lovely day with you all and as a bonus, lovely presents too! I love you all loads.
