I bought a smashing pattern for a knitted christmas tree hat.... I know, I know, I am dead tacky but I am planning to knit a few for next year. Here's wishing you a peaceful end to 2016 and a wonderful 2017. xCheriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01049568808770731003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6495386739892445277.post-40641810651633142522016-12-30T08:58:49.751-08:002016-12-30T08:58:49.751-08:00Lesley, your daughter sounds just like mine.

I honestly believe there comes a time when you have to let go and let others, however much they are loved, go their own way. I've had to do this with my daughter. I won't go into details but she has a hair trigger temper that has split the entire family. After 9 years I've accepted that there is nothing more I can do. She kept me from my grandchildren for years, but now, as each of them are coming of age, they have found their way back into my life, and I love them all dearly. I love my daughter too, if only she wold let me, but she's just angry at the whole world. So you are not alone. I'm sure there are many of us that read your blog know exactly how you feel. Blessings and all good wishes for a peaceful, and happy New Year Lesley UKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12690616440969201231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6495386739892445277.post-80492554488728563072016-12-28T07:12:38.083-08:002016-12-28T07:12:38.083-08:00I am with you on the Amazon thingy.

We bought little thoughtful gifts eg how delighted a 42 year old daughter was with a Harry Potter colouring book and pencils and her husband with 2 tshirts. I am now going to set about clearing and cleaning the house to continue the grand declutter. But first, I'm off to do my jigsaw!

I have to continually mentally sort out what is my responsibility and what is theirs. <br />You have to take care of yourself. I am hoping that 2017 will be better for you and the young one gets the psychiatric care he needs.<br />JoyceAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6495386739892445277.post-52028241908353189452016-12-27T04:03:11.717-08:002016-12-27T04:03:11.717-08:00Oh Katie, whatever next.

As my neighbour, a CPN says 'Care in the community my arse, there is no fucking care'.<br />Onwards and upwards and I hope one day, for you, the light at the end of the tunnel is not a sodding express train.<br />Hard up Hesterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02561421853249973134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6495386739892445277.post-3848759977839576052016-12-27T03:28:10.696-08:002016-12-27T03:28:10.696-08:00Just love the honesty of your posts, no frills jus...Just love the honesty of your posts, no frills just as it is.<br />Our Grandson is with us at the moment choosing to stay with us rather than his mother, I don't think he's been sober yet and it amazes me how he can function. He's back to London in a couple of days and one feline will be pleased, Rupert has missed his spare room.<br />Yes I think I've finally realised that its best to let everyone do their own thing and you get on with yours, it took a while for this to dawn on me. ha ha.<br />Hope 2017 is a lot better for you than 2016 and look forward to more honest posts.<br />Briony<br />xcrafty cat cornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06251582085392890533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6495386739892445277.post-40916616150327446392016-12-27T03:18:42.595-08:002016-12-27T03:18:42.595-08:00Oh Katie....I wish I could wave a magic wand and m...Oh Katie....I wish I could wave a magic wand and make everything right for you.<br />I hope that you get some peace and happiness in 2017.<br />Hugs-x-Sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10528336306775217982noreply@blogger.com
