That steam train did awful things to my hair, I tell you! Usually my hair is pretty bouncy!
I'm putting the settings back onto family only, but if anyone else would like to see them, please ask, and I'll change them over again for a while.
Thank you Sy. Don't think I've been described as a sweetie before. All teeth!!
I only worked out flickr today - now you're clever! Should be easy.
I'll have to get a picture of eldest - he's often behind the camera too!
When I was crying last week I did that.
I can post you a photo of the house I did so much work to, the big garden, the toys... And my golden car.
I cried Sy. I got so bitter towards him.
I've put a load on the digital photo frame I had for my birthday. Like to make myself look at them and become immune to the pain.
We could cry together...
ok.
I'll upload them...
loads of hugs.

chosen some, will upload them now.
Can't find xmas and the living room. I had a big living room. Children had a good size playroom too.

Does this mean you can have a look through them?
Still can't find xmas. Used to be able to go fairly mad, without it looking tacky as the house had space. A lot though a photos and not digital.
This is when I get angry.
Yet the living room was haunted, so if I'm honest, I doubt I'd have stayed there on my own anyway. I'd have lived in Rhosneigr forever though!
I have a picture of Louise a couple of days before she told me.
It's so obvious how unhappy she was now.
She waited for my brother to go back to Canada.
She had her terrible message to deliver to me.
It must have been awful for her.
I'd like to show it.
Yes I'd like to see your house and golden car.
sy
Yes, I agree it must have been awful for her. I felt awful telling The Git. But I hadn't meant anyone and I wasn't rubbing anyone noses in anything. I couldn't allow the children to be affected by his behaviour...
Things can be done in a way that's less cruel.
Sorry. I've caused you pain.
I've caused me a pain too! And a bit of anger. However, I do like looking at the photos. The grass was all brambles and rocks. And I cleared them! Him, his dad and my dad shifted tons of top soil to get it a bit more even!
The people who bought it have been trying to sell it for over two years now. The garden is all overgrown, when they'd got it so nice. Something sad has happened there...
I felt the thick stone wall of the cottage absorbed so much sadness. I used to imagine in it full of laughter again when they moved in.
Well, I didn't think I'd almost get to 1000 posts tonight - but have almost!
I'm changing the setting to private again. I'll leave the red arrows one, which just shows the door of the car. I used to stick the children on the roof to get a better view! It was a strong car...
It won't take long to change them again tomorrow, if you still feel you'd like to see them.
sorry for making you sad.
Looking at old photos can be a sad time. It can also be very healing. By that I mean that the tears and feelings inspired by the pictures are very healing in the longer term but on a sad evening, it can sometimes not seem that way. it's not wrong to be sad. Sometimes it is the most normal emotional response, so don't worry if either/both of you have been tearful looking at these memories
And by the way Sparkling Lime, congratulations on the 1000 posts. We do enjoy having you with us, thank you for all your wonderful contributions!
1,000 supporting posts.
Must be some kind of award for this. Keys to holyhead?
sy
Keys to Rhosneigr would be nicer. I'd fit gates and just let in locals and people I like!! 8-)
sparkling 1000 posts!!! amazing, & you are still here helping others :D
I was at BBQ down the road last night so missed out on these photos!! would love to see them :)
Pansy
It won't take me long to change the settings to public, so when we're both online, I'll swap them for a while. I'm happy for those I feel comfortable with to see them. You're all brilliant, I'm even confident to show a pic of me :o

I agree.
I'm going to look at them more often - On my computer there's no photo with The Git... The children have my old computer, and the photos are about all that survived on that - thank goodness. Loads of The Git there - which is right for the children, and they have their albums too...
I'm trying to desensitise myself (is that the right term?).
Yes that is a good word for it, sparkling lime. It is the word that is used when professionals try to help people overcome phobias by gradually exposing them to the feared object. So, say you were scared of dogs, the therapist would get you to look at pictures of dogs as the first stage (and then go on to get you to watch a film of dogs, see a live dog through a fence, see a dog not through a fence but on a lead. maybe touch it etc....so it is all very gradual).
Not that I am suggesting that you look at your children's dad through a fence! :shock:

I don't have problem with him :D
It's the house and the car I worked 70 hours a week to pay for... The one he wanted to GIVE ME as a clean break - give me my car. Git...
I've actually mastered talking to The Gittess (she's all right to be fair - poor woman) with my back turned to him. Handy skill that, I thought :D
Sparkling,
hmmmm, there's a change in you. Like a pretty and quiet rose bud about to open into a wonderous carnation.
(Am I getting a mood swing again?)
If you are looking at photos, can I at least be on the Y button thing whilst you're doing it?
In case you get distressed?
I'm usually up quite late.
sy
I'm bound to be up late too. Need to be up by 8am though, waiting for next door's gardener. She's away so I have instructions for him.
No change, I don't think. Just my blip of crying all the time has gone. I've been able to look at my marks and sort it in my head...
I wish I could be the person I was before my mum died. I quite liked that person. Not sure if she'll ever be back though...
I have them already. I'll go through the notes.
Can't find my essay writing book though. I'll have to get another.

when you've seen them, I'm hiding most of them again :D
