    When things are really tough come and tell us. We have all been there, we know how difficult life can be, we understand the frustration, the loneliness, the depression and sheer, utter misery of trying to get on with life when all seems to be stacked against one. Talk to us coco - we will listen and try to help. DD

    Hi Coco

    No need to apologise!! Glad you are able to post again.

    The site isn't compulsory and sometimes we are just NOT up to it. :)

    Good to see you on too.

    Love

    No, you don't need to. It is tricky tho: whatever you are facing you are facing alone, but you are not on your own. We are here, use us. PM someone you feel in tune with, with whom you can discuss things in private, as it were. Between all of us I reckon we've faced every flaming problem under the sun, and some even the sun hasn't thought of. We are a good, anonymous resource. Use us. DD

    as stiff as a board today but not quite as down, spoke to my son and he is ok so that has helped lift me abit. im a single mum (divorced my ex several years ago, one of my better desissions in life) and feel guilty when i have to ask the kids to help with chores, i try not to unless im realy stuck as i dont want to rely on and burdon them, there good kids im very lucky but it makes you feel guilty when you do ask.
    i had a bit of good news yesterday with the council, ive been on the list for ages, if i can get my dr to sign a form saying the damp and cold house i live in is bad for me i can have 10 more points and i will be near the top of the list so stand a good chance of a house. i see the dr next week so fingers crossed. i spent all last winter with no heating and hot water and had to get enviromental health in to get it sorted, i am dreading this winter as we still have damp and rain dripping in. how landlords get away with it i dont know.

    Hi Coco

    Just leaving hug or two and a hope you are having a better day and are not so stiff now. Hope the doc. can help with getting you moved a bit quicker too so your living conditions improve this winter. That sounds awful for you all. Hope the sun is at least warming you today, be nice to yourself.
    take care ((( )))

    Don't feel guilty about asking for help: it preserves your energy for more important things. I do hope you get your housing situation resolved soon - you need better conditions without a doubt. You have had a great deal to contend with but I have no doubt you are a strong woman and you will get through this. Think of the other things you have overcome. You can do this. DD

    Again the humour! You go girl, it's the only way to cope. I know exactly what you mean, you get near the top, you think 'Hurrah! Job nearly done!' and then you are knocked back to the bottom again. I call it the 'Sisyphus Effect'. He was a bloke in the Greek myths who had to push a boulder up a hill - just as he neared the top it would roll back again. He was lucky in one respect however, he didn't have arthritis. We just have to keep pushing. DD
