Hi I back 2 days in a row

Today ok so far but no water yet.I slept late, Doc gave me tabs for when I have BAD nights.

Kraig (16yr, my son went away on holiday's this morning, and Konrad (19yrs) off to Dublin to see B.Spears. (kids have great life).
I know i need to do the same as them, just up and go. My own fault as I've got such a good life, bar health at moment, and i've so little responsability now that the 8 sons have grown up, only Kory (13yrs), to care for and as all my other sons all live close, (only have 3 youngest living with me),he's with them most of time. I get mad at myslf some times for being DOWN in myslf, I've reared 8 sons on my own, and all great, and all close. Kenneth (29yrs),the eldest, like a Dad to others and and brilliant Dad to his own Katie. Kieran (27) great support to me, when Im at college or town we meet for coffee everyday, at moment we are planning his wedding in Sept, fiance gone home to K.Lumpar to sort Asian part of wedding out. (he has 2 kids from previous relationship David (11) Jasmine (8), and we all all get on so well. Kevin (26) and Keith (24) drive me anywhere I need go. (only 2 that drive),Kristofor(23)is my Different son, skateboarder, artist, doing an artist course at moment and designing T.Shirts, lovely lad but we need live apart but talk everyday. Hes very close to youngest 3. Youngest 3 get on great, and I get on great with their partners, and their X's, (Cork is small).
ALL of above is something I need to write too tell mysel how lucky I am. So sorry if it seems strange to ye.

Off now to drink my water.

I think it is a great way for you remind yourself what a lucky woman you are and a lucky mother. To have raised 8 children on your own, and they are still close to home and have a close relationship with each other. That in itself is a great accomplishment. I have two brothers, one I prefer to never see because of lifestyle choices I will not allow around my children, and the other I wish I had a relationship with and I don't think he wants to even remember that I or anyone else on our mother's side exist. I wish you a very good day, good luck with water intake.

Im same as you about my own family, Im from large family 6 girls 4 brothers, all very close growing up, not living in each others pocket kind of thing but always able to meet, chat and knew what was going on in each others life, then my Lovely dad died, my Mum got Alizemers, one brother and sister thought they could take over, etc Now we are a family split apart, Thought I would never talk to 4 of them again, ok now, just ok, with two but in life will never speak to 2 of them, and Im not alone feeling like that, This wedding coming up is bringing all this in focus again. Unlike you with the brother in bad ife style, these 2 rejects are ok, lovely kids, that they did try keep away from all their other cousins, but we all live in same area so kids get on great and I always get big hug when I see them. Have you ever tried to meet other brother on a one to one level. When my marriage broke up, my X's family got cool with us, but I confronted them, thats a big thing for me to do, but no1 hurts my kids, and they said sorry, they were emmbarrassed by what he put me through and did not know how to deal wit us as they were so shamed by it, they are chinese so they do take on shame from things family members do, things great with us. and my kids exc my eldest are close to them. He can never forgive them for dropping us at a time we needed them most. We saw them everyday I was married then no contact once I went for a barring order which they helped me get. people are strange things and something could have been said to brother by dads family that he believes because he trusted them not to lie and hurt him.
