That’s not acceptable and so hard for you.

A terrible day here. Wife got up. Found her laptop hard drive missing and immediately got angry and accused me...

The day went downhill for me thereafter.

Her hard drive was in her safe (yes she has a safe to kerp stuff from the intruders trying to steal everything from her). She was happy with that eventually but I was so upset with being accused again of something nasty. It lingered with me all day. It just makes me feel like giving up completely.

I hate her illness!!!! It has ruined everything for us aand hurt her greatly.

Sorry for the rant but, would you believe it, I have no support at all. I am completely alone with the weight of everything on my shoulders.... and still she shouts and accuses me. Aghhhn!!!

Tomorrow will be a better day...

I'm very very sorry to hear this. So incredibly tough and unfair on you both. I say please rant away - get it off your chest.

We are all hoping I'm sure for a better day for you both tomorrow.

Take good care.

And
@Clifton comment: "not helped by a phone call from my mother who tells me she has just started seeing someone 21 years her junior...I'm happy for her if she's happy but need to check the dude out! Dad passed 6 years ago and was 10 years her senior - so she's gone the other way!"

Spoiler Alert! Here's the other side of the coin.

I've often wondered why all the haters for step parents and suspicion for new partners of parents? I blame Disney myself, all those fairy tales about the wicked step-mother. Even the much loved "The Sound Of Music" had an element of step-mother hate. What's wrong with a mature adult with all their faculties in their latter years finding love again? With a younger or older person? Who's to judge? Why do children believe they know better than their adult consenting parent? Don't people want their parent to be happy?

Why are children, themselves often grown adult children settled with families of their own so opposed to it? Would they rather their widowed or divorced parent live alone and in misery for the rest of their natural lives, while they happily live their own lives? Is it about inheritance? Surely if a parent finds company again, is happy and frees their adult children from looking after them or being carers or having their own lives interrupted, that's a good thing?

In the UK we like to use care homes for our elderly parents, but elsewhere and on the continent like Southern Europe it's not unusual to see three or four generations living under the same roof or next door to each other. Some on here live with their elderly parent, which I admire. I wish I could still live with my lovely mum, now sadly deceased. Can't have it both ways. Why can't we just be kind, supportive and loving? Just saying.

Depends on circumstance and experience of the individual I suppose. Depends if the ‘new partner’ wants anything to do with the ‘grown up’ children. Funny things families and actually humans come to think of it.

Line of Duty - police corruption. AC-12. Oh you have 6 series to watch !!!! Surely you watch 11 million watch - almost as many as the 2nd jab brigade!
 
Hello Friday 5.3 this morning
busy day @ work then looking forward to a bank holiday weekend
 
Morning all 4.0 today was so excited about my new wood arch for the garden that I had it put it all together when I finished work at 7pm. So as I needed to modify it I was still cutting. Gluing and screwing at 10pm with my flood light on, don't know if its any good because it was dark.

I remember the days when I would be excited to come home from work to not glue or cut but the other one, went to bed and told my wife, not tonight darling I have an arch to make man_head_spinning_md_wht.gif
 
That’s better, a 5.1 this morning at 05:55.

@Maca44 as the saying goes: no photo, it didn’t happen 😉
 
Good morning. An HS here, some good news. 5.2

Wife was very appologetic after finding her hard drive that she had hidden away. A bit late for a battered me, but I am strong and bounce back (a bit slower these days). Today will be a better day. I just hate what her illness has done to her (and me).

Booked my second covid jab on line this morning...first week in May.

I may go for a walk today...or not...

Line of Duty? No idea what that is, but then we don't have television (satellite gives waves off that affect my wifes health, apparently)

It sounds like a nightmare @Gwynn did you call Mind they might be able to give you offer you some time to yourself or other support.
 
5.3 this am for me. 🙂

4.9 today - although a bit of a hollow success...
Went to see my dr yesterday who “simplified” my pump basal rates so I woke up at 1:30am with a 14 and had to correct! Perhaps it’ll work better tomorrow...?
 
Morning all and a 6.2 for me. Beautiful morning up here, but cold. Certainly doesn’t feel like the last day of April. Brrrr!

Oh I am so excited! Only two more sleeps....until Line of Duty finale ( as they are calling it, personally I think it’s too “ American”, last episode is suffice ), oh and yeah I forgot, I’m going on holiday tomorrow! 😉

I hope to pop in tomorrow morning, but if I don’t, don’t worry, I’ll be ironing the pleats in ma kilt and polishing ma dirk. I’m half Scots so I am allowed these articles, no cultural appropriation going on! :D

Have a great day, and to all you Sassanachs, have a great Bank Holiday weekend. 🙂

Congratulations on the HS. I really hope you get some sort of peace today.
 
Good morning from Bristol!
A 5.5 for me this morning at 0615.

A later than normal dinner of roast duck and Mediterranean vegetables followed by work prep till 2330

Hound and I have been out and about to do his business and sniff a gazillion lamp posts and trees as well as pick up coffees for Madame and I.

After the school run, I have a few conference calls , my first Covid vaccination and a GP appointment to look at this pesky leg rash then a quick run to Waitrose for stuff.

A long weekend has arrived, although I'm having to travel over to London Monday as I need to be there very early Tuesday...

Wishing you all a super day no matter what you're doing. And needless to say, a fabulous weekend!
