My cats are broken...

 I am fast running out of any patience with my cats...

Basically they are broken and not working like a proper cat should. Normal cats love boxes and are even known to sit in squares taped onto the floor. My 2??? Nothing...if there is a box they completely ignore it, no attempt to try out "If I Fit, I Sit" and not even a flicker of interest at times like Christmas when boxes are often arriving daily.

Also catnip - most cats love it and roll around in extasy getting stoned of the best feline drug around - my 2; 1 sniff if you are lucky and then nothing. I am totally disappointed. Rory chases the red dot if he can be bothered - Misty has never been bothered at all.

The only thing they both love are the infamous dreamies and they are happy to OD on those - but I'm cruel and ration them strictly. Today I bought they some new treats which are meant to be chewy etc. Rory has eaten 2 and Misty has licked 1. Since then I have put a couple in their biscuit bowl, they keep taking it out and leaving it on the kitchen floor. 

I am now so fed up with them I have been looking at Dogs on line, I'm also starting to think I don't care if the dog likes cats or not, the felines will just gave to deal with it. I need a dog - especially when Andy goes back to work to provide some company as both cats spend most of the day fast asleep and provide 0 company minutes/seconds. I also feel a dog will help Mikey, my dog helped me massively at school as I could tell her everything and get things out of my head, plus just having her there listening was exactly what I needed.

Personally I am tremendously proud of Mikey and how he has coped over the last few days - to be honest he has done much better than Andy and I who have pretty much fallen apart... He has also been awarded his first Achievement point....on Day 2!! What more can we ask of him.?!?!

How Do I keep Going?

 This week I have totally reached the end of my very frayed tether. I am more exhausted than I have felt for months and I am also feeling isolated, un-needed and unwanted. |Mikey is settled at school, is doing well and making new friends and finding new interests. All I do it listen while he frantically searched for reasons for him feeling f=depressed. When he does come up with something you can guarantee that there is nothing I can do to cure or solve whatever he is worrying about. He also has new people he can talk to so I am certainly no longer needed. I've also had my latest lot of blood tests done. I can't remember my access thing for my results so I can't look at them. My memory is failing even more than usual and I hate this. I'm also in constant pain and I can't do anything that is part of my usual way of living. I really just want all this to end. I have no energy, I can't sleep and even cooking something simple leaves me feeling dead on my feet. All I

Lockdown, Day 90

Definitely thinking backwards today!! 10 years ago Andy had to take me to Hospital for monitoring as I couldn't feel the baby moving and a friend in Scotland (who was also pregnant) told me to get checked! I spent all of the Friday afternoon on a monitor and having blood samples taken. The original plan was for me to go in on Sunday for my induction so I was sent home as they were happy my bump was doing OK and there was nothing to worry about! That was my first experience that I remember of how tired hospital tests make me so I was not in a cooking mood! Dinner ended up being KFC and a tub of Ben & Jerries as I had decided that the bump couldn't put that much weight on in 2 days!  Just as I curled up with my tub the hospital called me and told me to go back the following morning as my blood tests had shown a problem. She did tell me what it was but I honestly can't recall what she said! The plan at that point was to do my induction as soon I arrived, so as I thought I

Worried

 We are now the day before Mikey starts at The North School....all they have done today is worry me even more that this is the wrong place for my son. I know all parents are protective - but he took so long to have and I really do not trust them to look after him properly. We have been provided a timetable which states that his first lesson is PE - Yr 7 parents have been told not to send PE Kit in tomorrow.... Also, he is in group 7x3....but the timetable has him in 7x2. If they can't send the right timetable how can I trust them to look after the most valuable thing I have? The chair of Governors has also sent a letter about the school joining the Swale Academies Trust. From what I have heard about this on local news I do not want my child at a school under their control. How can I get him out of there? Since I started writing this |I have e-mailed the Head asking why everything is so disorganised the day before they start and have said it will not help kids with autism as everyth
