    Morning ladies
    Well im at Tracy's, she is just overwhelmed, and snapped at me about finding daycare,that right now she can't handle it..
    She said what we found in Carmines room floored us,soshe wouldn't tell me,but it really shook them.
    So for right now.. everything is on the back burner and poor Miles is feeling all the stress..

    There will always be a reason now isn’t a good time. She knows you won’t actually stop watching him if she doesn’t find someone so she has no reason to feel any urgency.

    I’m truly sorry Carmine is struggling. That is no excuse for them not to either 1) find acceptable child care 2) change up her hours so she can work evenings/nights while Kyle is home or 3) quit and stay home until she finds child care.

    If you want to address your health issues, you need to give them a date and stick to it. If they haven’t found someone, that is there problem. THEY are the parents.

    When is your cruise? Maybe that’s the date if it is soon.

    Would probably benefit Miles to be in a different atmosphere for a while.

    Skimming through. The blog moves so fast. Too tired to take notes. Worked with the cats this morning and will again tomorrow morning. I have the grand dog a black lab and he is well behaved. Thursday I have to be on the van early to get to the Atlanta airport. Wish I wasn't so tired. About to lay down for a nap.....at 5:16 pm.....and hope I have some energy when I wake up. Thinking about everyone and wishing every one the best.

    Best,
    Rosemarie from Georgia

    It's OK to be tired ... and to nap.

    31. Find three reasons to be hopeful about the future. Surprised at how difficult this is, but my god daughter is doing a good job raising her kids. They are smart, funny and pleasant to be around… for awhile :naughty:
    Checking Friday’s Freddie receipt noticed no $10 discount for spending $40+ on P&G products, nor $1 off each for “buy 5 and save.” Disgusted I fired off a complaint using their contact form. To my surprise, delight (and a little shame), got an email today with a $20 credit to my loyalty card. It pays to double check, but it would have been better if I’d been kinder… ;{
    Welcome @dcresider! Yes! Tomorrow evening Barbiecat will post the link to the June thread. Look forward to seeing you there.
    Machka, Terri and Rita, thanks for the memes, I needed to see them today.
    Heather, no doubt your first post-accident run was scary . . . but you did it anyway. Bravissima!
    Rebecca when Athena is a famous comic we’ll all be able to say we saw her when…
    Lanette your super sports bra bumpy mowing made me laugh out loud.
    Beth maybe you just need a break for a few days. June’s fresh start is just around the corner.
    Katla walks with friend and DH? Lovely!
    Pip hahaha :naughty: Primary Care Provider.
    Allie Carmine’s mental health just took priority over childcare. Please keep us posted. Praying Tracy can get Carmine into a safe place where they can get help N O W.
    Vicki “…giving up control is not easy” truth this!
    Lisa yours to Flea, especially about her precious energy.
    Flea your niece had an affair with your first husband? Not someone you need in your life or your head! ((hugs))
    05/30: Move: 2 sets PT w/d, dogs to powerline, fern whacking, line dancing. steps:6588

    Tracey - Well done for looking for a therapist. <3 Will you be able to get one through the health service? The waiting list here is huge.
    Do you journal? That can be a huge help. My friend L found writing letters to her dead partner very helpful. You can also doodle how you feel. I remember, from what you have shared on here, that you had a hugely difficult childhood/adolescence. Try writing to your grandmother and telling her all about it. Get out your Cricut and express yourself. Make a mental map with it, like Machka 's mindmaps. It's always better out than in. Just write one word today. Just one.
    A crisis like you are going through can be the gateway to a whole new understanding. It will come. Don't rush it. Rest. Rest. Rest. Your body knows best.
    Very, very, best wishes. <3<3<3

    Love Heather UK xxxxxxxx (who is very happy not to be going up to London) :p

    My mind maps?

    Well its been a day lets just say that..
    Miles slept for 3 hrs this morning poor little guy..
    When Tracy got home she was a wreck and almost in tears.. Mental illness runs in my ex husbands family,my ex mother in law was bi polar,Rich is bi polar and poor Carmine,is either Psychotic or Schizophrenic at this point she has been cutting herself and writting death threats on everyone.. so they need to get her into some type of place like Pronto.. pay a little at a time if you have to.. but for her life and yours it has to be done.

    Oh dear, it was the 3rd choice ... the one I was hoping it wasn't.

    Carmine is severely depressed.

    https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/self-injury/symptoms-causes/syc-20350950

    As someone said, the negative attention she is getting is better (to her) than no attention at all, with all the attention going to Miles.

    I still think it would be good to get Miles into childcare so that attention can go to Carmine and so that Miles is in a better atmosphere.

    But it's not up to me.

    Machka- I was thinking of something like your hobbies graphic arrangement.

    I decided today to not write this morning, because I had a long list of things I wanted and needed to do, which was uppermost in my brain and bothering me. :D So, out I went to return an Amazon parcel at the post office, go to two different pharmacies, buy frozen dim sum from the Asian shop, visit the posh bakery for focaccia, the mini supermarket for milk and prawns, (and I bought salmon fillets) and then drag my trolley bag home. Knackering! But it's done.
    We are thinking of the things we need for the cruise, and gathering toiletries and medicines together. I've bought anti-midge spray! DH is going on a couple of hikes, so he might need it. Plus we sre well loaded up with seasickness tablets now. :p
    I wouldn't have written if I had been going up to London, so I feel OK about it. This afternoon, I'm going to varnish my geranium coaster and perhaps try another dancer.

    Love Heather UK xxxxxxxx
