how time flies

Strangely I haven't been able to blog for a while.  Weird for me!  Anyway, I realise that I am stressed at the moment, its taken a while to sink in why I have been feeling odd lately, but that is my diagnosis.  Little things which I could normally cope with are getting to me, and I really don't want to be bothered with things.  I am not even visiting my ducks as much.  I can hear the cries of horror now!  Its one of those times when I would like to lock myself away and let everyone get on without "mums intervention".  The comments I can normally brush off hurt, and I am ouching a bit too much.  The protective bubble needs to be put into place, but by the time I remember its too late.  Pah, crappy memory wins again.  I will do it now and ask for it to be kept in place, maybe that will work.  We are off on holiday in two weeks, that will help, a bungalow on the cliff miles from anywhere, bliss!  Just got to try and keep Dad in bed beyond 5am!!

Although my oldest "children" are 25 and 22, I still worry about them.  I guess as a parent you never stop worrying.  I know Dad still worries about us, so there is living proof.  My son works as a TA with special needs children, mainly autistic children, and the stories I hear are not nice.  I admire him and am so very proud of him, as I am with all my children, but I wish he was doing a different job.  His fiancee let slip that he is ill a lot and on questioning Rob it appears it is probably due to the child he is currently working with.  All I can say is ewwww, and I will leave it at that!  I know we all want the best for our children, but life isn't all chocolate drops and roses, no matter what our wishes.   My daughter is going through the pain of a break up.  He is on my hitlist, and again, I will say no more! 

I have noticed that my girls jump out of the pond now when I go to feed them, well, my girls and the one who has had a sex change!  This just fuels my theory that they do actually recognise me!  Yesterday I went to a feed supply shop and bought 10kg of duck food.  If I was reckless it would go on one visit, but I must make it last for a week at least lol.  They do seem to appreciate the corn more than the bread.

Have booked tickets to see Will Young in October.  Its going to be a busy month, The Feeling, Stephen Merchant and Mr Young.  Shame the Will Young gig is in Swindon, bit of a dive in my humble opinion, but hey ho, I regretted not seeing him when he came to Bristol 2 years ago and made a pact that I would def see him next time he is in this area.  It was either Swindon or Cardiff, and I find Cardiff a real pain so "the dive" won out.

Think thats about it for now.  Whenever I post a blog I always think of things I was going to mention but forgot,  think I need a notebook.  How sad is that!  Off for a cuppa and then to see Captain Ed about one of his rather intrigueing blogs ............................
