I so understand you not wanting to go to bed. I too have known my John all my adult life, still at school when we met. How do you change your way of living and sharing after all this time? I can't think of anything that would make you feel any better or make it easier for you (or indeed anyone of us). If we stop hurting, would that mean we no longer care as much? Sorry this isn't very helpful is it? As in the words of Scarlett O'Hara....tomorrow is another day. Hope it gets better for everyone. x

Hi everyone, well just completed my first 'normal' shifts at work. The first night was awful. I was very 'down' and everything seemed set to make me very weepy. The second night was much better and I only got sightly weepy but not actually crying. The shift was nearly over and then a chance remark by someone opened up the floodgates and that was the end of me for about 5 mins and the day has progressed along similar lines. Ok one second and in tears the next. On an upbeat note, I have been shopping with my sister and she is so funny that I was crying with laughter (she is a real tonic).

Gayle, a big (((((((Angel hug))))))) for you. You are remarkable.
Kev... glad you had a good trip.
Lynne so pleased that the night went well for you. People don't mean to give pitying looks. They just care.
Helen, congratulations to your son on his exam results. Oh and please can you come and do my painting as you seem to enjoy it so much? lol
Sue, I love the little pictures you are always posting.
Claire, I hope that you soon start to feel a little better. As mentioned above, phased return to work can be quite helpful.
I hope everyone has a good evening. Bye for now. Love and Angel hugs x x Patricia x x
