I feel really sad today, my ex made a flippant comment about my sons hair (he hates my son having long hair, sons choice) and it made me cry.  I do my best to bring my son up to be a kind, caring and loving person, his manners are great, he often receives comments about how nice it is to hear a youngster with good manners, while my ex went off living 'the single life' I've struggled to make ends meet, do the best I can for my son and yet my ex still can't resist taking digs at me.

I discovered one of my guinea pigs had died during the night, just before taking my son to school, I haven't told him yet - then I've just gone to give some cuddles to the other guinea pig to find that he's died too :o( I have no idea why, they were fine when I put them to bed last night, eating well, lively, no sniffles, respiratory problems or anything, I'm still shocked - I wish I knew what had caused it.

I've wrapped them together in linen and found a pretty box for them, I've got to dig a deep hole to bury them later, I'm trying to write something to say when I send them on their way but nothing is flowing - time for some meditation maybe.

My motorbike is goosed and may take some serious cash to put it right - I'll find out later.

The slugs have been at my lettuce again and one of the dogs peed on my ironing pile while I was out.

Oh poor me...... I can't shake it today, feeling real sorry for myself, ramble ramble..... I need a hug.
