Yeah but it's all I do anymore. Foot six days that's all I've done is cry.

I'm sorry hon....

I know this is so hard...

You are such a strong person for having the courage to face it down!

crying is very cleansing precious, it is good to let it all out. I wish i could, i've been stuck (paralysed) in my room pretty much since saturday and keep starting to cry and then it just stops. if i could just get it out i know i'll feel better. i just know i'm going to cry at some completely inappropriate moment and be mortified!!! i hope you feel better soon.

may more big fat hugs to you, i hope your day is improving, i brought some baileys cheesecake for you!

late again today,, i just took my morning meds it is 9.pm! and have had two slices of toast! oh well better than nothing! i'll have some cheesecake in a while too. makes everything look better! hugs to all.

Hey guys!

I have asthma too, so I tend to kind of hyperventilate when I cry...... It doesn't help that I don't cry very often.

I'm sorry you guys are having a rough time right now :( I hope your days have improved a bit.

Cheesecake looks great Irish, thank you :)

i'm on my second mug of hot tea and just had a chat with my son the chef, he and his girlfriend had a fifteen course meal in a 'fine dining' restaurant where he knows the chef and he said the food was incredible, he spoke to the chef and has loads of new ideas to back to his own workplace. said he'd love to do a work exchange there which would be great for him. it is great that he loves the job so much. it's good too that we have the love of food in common and can swap recipes at all hours of the day and night!

i have science fantasy books with shane and other interesting reads and plays, poetry and music with megan so it is good that conversations with my children are usually stimulating and we have great conversations when we all get together. we solve the problems of the universe every time!

i really hate that leaden feeling in my stomach though and i can't see beyond it at the moment. i have to bring out the 'happy geraldine' more and more and it is very tiring...


what's everyone else up to?

A fifteen course meal?? That sounds awesome :) what kind of restaurant does your son work, what kind of food does he make?? Swapping recipes is always fun :)

I love stimulating conversations and concurring the universe :)

Sorry you're not feeling good Irish :/ the "happy face" can be exhausting at times. I hope that you feel a little better soon. (Hugs)

he works in the fine restaurant of a five star hotel in cork city so has a lot of experience with fine dining and can make the most amazing food, makes his own ice-creams, chocolates, de-constucted desserts, strange soup combinations and lots of different little taste bud challengers for in between courses! it seems to be the fashion these days to serve lots of small courses instead of three large ones and people love all the different tastes. the photos of some of his food are fabulous.

the mess after the painting is driving me insane but the woman who helps can't come until saturday so i have to wait until then. I'm still in bits after the work i did last week. i really hate not being able to do things for myself. i used to do so much. I'd have had the whole house painted by now. other people are so slow!!!!

Wow..... That sounds amazing and delicious.

I'm sorry to hear that you have to wait until Saturday to get your painting done, I can see how that'd be frustrating :/

Sounds like fun Irish a 15 course meal!

Sounds pretty sublime all those flavors...

Hey Joneszy!

I'm off to the gym I've been so neglectful as of late time to get back to it....hopefully all the New Year's Resolution people have fallen off!!!

Hey May!

Lol..... Hopefully they have and there's not too many people at the gym.

Sounds like fun May

15 course??? Yummy!! Irish, you outdid yourself!!

Hey Jo! How's it going??

yes may, the new years resolutions people should be waning by now, so i hope you get a chance to enjoy the gym.

hey joneszy and precious. any news?

Hey guys (again)

I'm doing good, not really any news thiugh.

What about you guys??

hi jo, sorry to hear you're not doing well, anything we can do? big hugs to you might be of some help. must be the time of year for it. the blues are invasive!

here's a breakfast of oatmeal with sultanas, scrambled eggs with chopped bacon and tomatoes and mushrooms and lots of hot toast to with it all. a warm breakfast to warm us all up and maybe make us feel taken care of and feel a little better. i have lit a huge fire the lounge is nice and comfy cost for the day. i've had breakfast and i'm just going to have a snooze here on the couch before i go to tdoc. i'm looking forward to it and dreading it as i haven't seen her for month's, nearly a year actually.. but it will be good. haven't been out of my room for a while so i'm working on that now....here's hoping..have a good day folks..

Hey Irish :) thanks for the well wishes, I'm doing good :)

Thanks so much for breakfast, it looks lovely as always! I'll have some oatmeal :)
