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.
I've been granted permission by my local council to keep chickens in my back garden. I'm so pleased. I won't be getting them until I come back from my holiday in August but it will give me time to convert the free shed I was given a couple of days ago and get everything set for them.
I'm only going to have 3 - 5 but that's plenty for me. I already have a house full of animals, I find them so much better than humans at times!
My seedlings are coming on strong, I love pottering around in my garden. It's looking better each day.
I can't wait to harvest my first home grown vegetables.
I went to the supermarket yesterday, I really find it hard shopping in those places, I much prefer local markets, farm shops and the like but sometimes I just can't get what I need so have to visit the dreaded supermarket from time to time.
I must mix the henna for my hair, I am I am I am I am going to do it tomorrow.
I took my son to town today, he wanted a new computer game, he saves up his allowance so I don't mind, I make sure we get the best deal though!
I feel really happy and content today, it feels like things are finally coming together which is great.
Think I'll do some more knitting later, I'd like to get this shrug finished so I can wear it - I'll post a pic when it's done.
