Well, the clock on PC says 11.04, so I have given a good couple of minutes. Was here all the time, thinking of June, and realizing that I will be going through all this again on Friday, when we say our goodbye's to our Pat, my Dad's girlfriend/partner of 24 years. Think I need to go and put the kettle on and pull myself together x Elaine xx |

Morning everyone, Oh; the sun is beaming in through the window, what a lovely day it is today xx Hope your all happy and well .. I have to confess, that I must have the best friend in the entire world in my ex, as it dawned on me last night exactly what he does for me in times of need. During the last 9 days alone, he has dropped all his own plans and has been on the end of the phone for me. He's helped me out looking after our son when I've needed to be elsewhere, which has taken an enormous worry off my shoulders. He even took last Monday night off work so I could be at the hospital for as long as I needed to be. Now, even though he is working until 7am on Friday, he has volunteered to help us all out, by making sure the buffet is prepared and available back at the house after the funeral. This on top of a 12 hour shift, and some 70 miles driving. That old saying ' You can't live with them, but you can't live without them ' springs to mind ... Thank you Jim, thankyou for being there for me when I've needed support ... Elaine ;-)) |

Hi Ann, Hi Sally, Oh you both sound so sad :-((, wish I could reach out and give you a real {{HUG}}. Please don't ever feel lonely or sad .... thats what we're all here for, whether you like it or not !! can't help ourselves can we ? here for each other when we need someone. I've had so much help and support of everyone, I hate others to feel down. You must PM me ... if either of you feel or need to talk ... I'm usually here xx Tomorrow is Pat's funeral, so I won't be around during the day. More than likely, I'll turn PC on about T timeish. So any messages and I'll respond tomorrow night xx I'll just give the plants a quick water whilst I'm here and I'll have 5 mins while it's quiet xx Elaine ;-) |
