Daily Thread_ Mon 3rd April 2006--- DEDICATED TO WINSTON


4.40 and no daily thread????

Means you have to put up with me starting one again.
I thought it may be a nice thought to dedicate todays daily thread to WINSTON. A cat many of us have grown very fond of, despite never having met him.

"To Winston"
(raises glass of apple juice)

Today Princess has been restless again, so IN CASE i have gutted my bedroom, cleaned and hooverd and scrubbed every possible nook and cranny. The kids have made up Pet Beds In any gap big enough that she may crawl in!
I decdied NOT to cage her, but let her have a choice of where she gives birth, she is getting shut in my bedroom with me at night, So i am getting woken a lot, but I felt it best to giver her free roam of the room, in the hopes she is less stressed and can pick a spot she naturally feels comfy in. I am prepared with towels etc all over the place,

Just keeping everything crossed IF she is restless due to imminent labour that all goes well. Have had word with vets, who must be sick to death ofme by now, and they have said she may be restless due to recent events that will not be discussed at this point.

No plans for today , what is left of it, other than relaxong, and cooking kids tea then batheing them. feeling VERY tired and worn out today. prob all recent events with bunny, kids, hubby, etc etc.

I do thrive on chaos though!!!!!!
Things rather chilled today.

So here's to Winston, may he run free for ever and for ever be in the hearts of those who knew him.

Not having a good day today, the events of Friday night have just continued to annoy me today, thought I was ok at the weekend but I think I was just trying to gloss over it haven't been very busy at work which hasn't helped much.

Decided it was time I was selfish for a bit, OH sent me a text at lunchtime yabbering on about his work, I just looked at it in despair and realised that he hasn't got a clue. Then he sent me a text just a minute ago to let me know he was still at work (he is suppose to leave off at 5pm) and will let me know when he is on the train. Just text him back and told him not to bother. I have decided from now on he can get on with his life with minimal support from me, I am not cooking for him, not taking him to the station/airport, not lending him money, his family functions he can go to by himself, he can sort out easter eggs for his niece and nephew. I hope in a weeks time perhaps I will feel different but I am still stunned by his lack of thought for me and I feel very numb inside.

I have also been thinking about Elaine and DD and what they must be going through his afternoon that has made me even more depressed.

Got an unexpected present from two friends in America today. Been distracted all day, not sure why.

Here's to Max and Winston, may they run free.

Oh emma, i hope you soon feel better about things.
It isn't easy when you feel under appreciated and feel that your OH doesnt consider your fellings enough, I know how that feels, had years of it from Hubby.
Sorry to hear things arent so well, I personally don't blame you for not doing somuch for him, it'll teach him to appreciate you more.

What a sad day today is. Dawn and Elaine are both in my thoughts - I hope the pain of their loss lessens with time.

Emma - I SO know what you mean. It's difficult when you feel someone hs slighted or insulted you to be able to forgive - especially after giving so much! Don't rush into any decisions, but also don't let hatred stew, it can be damaging and can obscure real thoughts and feelings.

Things continue much the same here. Work, home, dinner, bed. Dominik offers fun and light relief which is a godsend. I'm too feeling deflated and saddened by today's dearly departed cats so will head off to bed shortly as there really is not much else to do.

Lets hope tomorrow is brighter for all!!
