Gwyn and I are in the midst of a complete marital collapse.

It's happened before. He's so hopeless at relationships.

Oh no!  You two have been through so much stress...could that be part of the problem? :cuddle;

Thanks MooseMom, jbeany and KS. It's been a stupid week.

It's just a culmination of everything. We were having such a great New Years Eve, then Gwyn shouted at the kids because they were not going to bed like perfect little angels, and it all snowballed from there. I love New Years Eve, and I really resent his behaviour and his laser-like focus on himself, especially when he's had a few drinks. (We went to an early party for the kids, and I volunteered to be the return driver.)

He's moved into the spare room, which is for the best the way I've been feeling toward him lately. On the plus side, I'm getting more sleep.... :laugh:

Birthday greetings, Billybags!
I'm embarrassed - was supposed to be getting morning tea for the blokes working for us. One came looking for it and I had to yell through the bedroom door - 'still connected up'! I am SO disorganised. Luckily they are friends so no further explanation needed. Except from my hubby, as to why he didn't reset the alarm! Will now attempt to prepare a delicious lunch to make up for my oversight.

Nervous.. it's so bad, it took me 3 tries to type it.. *L*

I have an appointment with the neph tomorrow to talk about what needs to be done before I can get another kidney.  I'm kind of hoiping that it's cancelled due to the storm that's raging outside at the moment.

Oh, I'd be nervous, too. :cuddle;  Hey, would you let us know what you find out?  Either PM me or start a thread?  Thanks!

Today I'm ecstatic! My birthday is the day after Billybags (all the best people have their birthdays in January!!) and Its my first birthday with a new kidney! No dialysis and tonight I'm going for a full on chinese meal with my gorgeous Peter and I'm having BANANA FRITTERS for dessert!! In fact I might have them for the starter and the main too! :rofl;

Plus, he's taking me to Bath at the end of the month (No, not for a bath! I've showered today thank you!) but to see the Roman site!!
Our first trip away since I was transplanted! I'm so excited!
Am I allowed 2 words?
Excited and Ecstatic!

hopeful.. the Neph seemed very interested in helping me move forward towards a transplant.  He agreed with me that plasmapheresis might be an option when we actually have a donor, which I didn't think he'd say.  So, onwards and upwards.. *G*

My mood today? Utterly p*ssed off. I've been trying to file my tax return on-line.

Compared with filing my tax return dialysis is a summer holiday.

Yay!

I'm feeling energetically productive.  I expect it to last another few minutes and then my body will suddenly realise that it's Friday and everything will just droop.

perplexed.. my dialysis doze wore off about an hour ago, so I feel like I need to do something, but it's 3am, and anything I could do would probably disturb my mother.
