a terrible month


Hi all. I'm sorry it's been such a long time since I posted anything, but the past month has been a horrible month, and I just couldn't concentrate enough to sit down and write about anything. However today I feel like I have to.

Last week my beautiful little girl esme went missing. I put posters up all over our estate to try and find her. I got a phone call yesterday to tell me someone thinks they had found her. Unfortunately she'd been dead in their garden for 3 days. I'm sure you can imagine how horrible it was to go and bring her home and make sure it was her by this point, which has left me in a state of pure misery since.
Other problems before this happened have also included a car accident (no body was hurt but we now are paying through the nose on insurance.) Matt lost his job, my vespa broke over and over costing nearly £500 to fix, which has been such a struggle to afford, and the stress and arguments that have entailed.

The only thing that has been keeping me going is the hope that things can only get better, and that my string of bad luck might finally be over :(

Oh my lovely, what a horrible time you have been having. HUGE MASSIVE HUGS BEING FLOWN OVER TO YOU. I'm sorry to hear about Esme. How traumatic. Cars, what a pain. I can sympathise a little. I had my sunroof smashed by a schoolkid and what should have been a simple claim and fix, has turned into a complete nightmare. They have been trying to get us to pay £650 for it even though fully insured. Although it seems nothing compared to your wooes. But think, there are times when it just feels like one hit after another keeps on coming, but it will get better, just hang on in there my friend. Love and hugs Vanessa xxx

Vanessa is right, things do get better (can personally vouch for that) and you have friends here that care and listen. Take some quiet time for yourself and take a "phew deeeep breaths"!
Much love and huggles to you

I sympathise with you as I lost my cat last month and it is heart breaking but she will now be in cat heaven were it rains milk and every tree is there to be climbed. Hope your luck has a turnabout soon. My prayers and thoughts are with you at this time.
