HOPE EVERYONE IS OK
Thankfully this nothing I've woke up with a clearer mind after my spiraling yesterday, I've learnt over the years it's what's going to happen I can't forget it I can't ignore it I have to deal with it when it happens then I have to keep telling myself, You survived, you are better than them, you have nothing to be ashamed of, they were the adults and should have known better plus I'm not like them, I could never do what they did to a child so hold my head up high and stay strong.
Anyway
Its absolutely freezing here today in the UK, we have woken up to snow and it's not even December. Its really cold and guess who is at the end of the Menopause, Yeah me I haven't felt the cold for a good 5 years if not more, usualy at this time my hubby and daughter have so many layers on so I can have the French doors open and the fan on whilst sitting in a vest and shorts, now I have a full pyjamas set on with fluffy socks and a big teddy bear dressing gown and my toes are still cold.
Energy costs is the UK are really expensive, you darent put your heating on. The energy company in with does a quite good scheme for there customers as they should they are making billions if we cut our energy costs through the week they give us so many hours free Electricity on a Sunday. I've stopped washing clothes and dishes through the day, I now wait until 7pm after the peak time then do them, it saves quite a bit. Last Sunday I had 4 hours free where I finished all my washing for most of the week now this Sunday I've been given 8 hours free so all the washing and drying will be done plus the heating will be going on to warm up each room plus I've managed to build a litte credit up on my energy account so will be able to have the heating on when it gets colder. I never thought things would every get this bad here.
Hope I get these texts every week over the Winter, looks like its going to be cold one. I am stuck in the house when it snows as can't walk on it incase it's slippy, one slip could cause so much more damage with my spine and knee. Roll on the Summer.
Me and hubby were up again all night with Mika last night, No she wasn't up she slept the whole night with hardly moving, the night before she was up every hour. We literally took turns last night waking up checking she was still alive, I think she prefers it when it's really cold as she sleeps so much better but it scares us, we have to keep checking she's still breathing. I'm sure she's getting a kick out of us worrying about her. Fingers crossed she sleeps all night tonight.
Thanks for visiting. 💟💟
