You know I told you my brain is all over the place at the moment, well the proof popped through the door the other morning. A speeding ticket!!!! The first one I have ever had :( I do vaguely remember driving through a village, completely stressed mind on other things then realising I was going a bit fast, just my luck that a mobile speed camera was lurking there somewhere. I am the one who always sticks to the limit, often to the annoyance of drivers behind me, and blow me I'm the one with a flipping fine. I wasn't going very fast but I was over the limit so fair cop. Of course I haven't changed the address on my driving license so that's a further complication I don't need.
The bearded one has also been ill for the last week with cold/cough combo which has now driven him to his bed, most unlike him. I am up and down the stairs with food and drink for both him and my son and trying to stay positive. I have to admit to shedding a few tears this morning. My mum has been gone 16 years now but I really wanted to have my mum around to look after me. I need a brake from being the adult, I just want to revert to being the child for a few hours.
Chickpea xx
Oh bless you, many a time I wanted to be child again life can seem so tough at times
ReplyDeleteOh Chickpea, if I already lived in Cornwall I would be there in a shot to give you a massive hug and a break from it all. when it rains, it pours doesnt it. Beaming lots of good vibes through the internet ether!
ReplyDeleteSending virtual hugs. I have been caught twice speeding - both times out of character. Once in Africa when concentrating on a Braxton Hicks contraction and the second here in the UK when thinking about the minor surgery I was about to have on my back.... moral of the story? - don't drive and think!
ReplyDeleteYou've had a lot to worry about lately and you deserve to be looked after for a while. Sending you a virtual hug. I never had a speeding ticket but once got two tickets in one evening for driving in the bus lane. I got lost in the city centre and when I noticed I was in the bus lane, there was no other way than to go straight on, into another bus lane. Could have kicked myself! Take care x
ReplyDeleteMy heart broke a little to know that you got upset.
ReplyDeleteGetting up every morning and putting on those big girl knickers is very hard and like you I have wished for someone to take away all the responsibility just for a few hours.
If I lived closer I would be round to see if there was anything I could do to help but unfortunately I don't so all I can offer is a huge warm hug and positive thoughts.
Take care-x-
I wish I could pop around and help a little but know that you are in my thoughts and I am sending you a hug. Take care of yourself.
ReplyDeleteI think that at times like this it does you good to shed a few tears. I hope you're feeling a little brighter now.
ReplyDeleteYou've had an awful lot to deal with lately. Know that I am thinking of you and sending warm wishes your way. X
I hope you are feeling better soon, it's horrible when everyone wants a bit of you and your run ragged, and then that letter!
ReplyDeleteLife does over whelm us all, I often talk to my mum, she has been gone for 11 years.
Sending my best wishes and hoping the sun will shine soon and help you see what a great job you are doing to help your family at a difficult time.
ReplyDeleteI do hope things get better for you, sooner rather than later, thinking positive thoughts for you.
ReplyDeletesending you a hug x
ReplyDelete..and one from me too ...poor chickpea :(... My New Years Resolution this year is to honour my inner child.... and I think we all should from time to time . We were over your way yesterday after dentist, we sat in the carpark over looking the beach enjoying a pasty and watching people and their daft dogs on the beach having fun :) x Sending healing vibes to your poorly boy x
DeleteChocolate and trash TV, that might help, as you seem to be stuck with being the adult at present. Oh and the occasional swear... Hope things are back to normal soon.
ReplyDeleteI don't think they transport criminals to Australia for speeding any more...
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you removed my comment with no apology for your comments towards me. You are a coward! Ah well shallow people!
ReplyDeleteI removed your comment because you were being hateful against another blogger and I had made no comments towards you, just deleted it. You are a sick individual who lives in a fantasy world, either go and get some help, go get a life or go fuck yourself. Your choice. From now on I will just delete without engaging in your sick games.
DeleteHope you are ok, sun is shinning here in My part of Cornwall so hope you are feeling a bit brighter today
ReplyDeleteNot the same as having your Mum I know but sending some virtual hugs. It sounds as though you don't need comments from sick individuals either. Take care of yourself xxx
