Kizlode sent me this earlier and as it is quite poignant thought I would post it here. If you can pass it on.

I Got Flowers Today

We had our first argument last night, and he said a lot of cruel things that really hurt me. I know he is sorry and didn't mean the things he said, because he sent me flowers today. I got flowers today.
It wasn't our anniversary or any other special day.

Last night he threw me into a wall and started to choke me. It seemed like a nightmare, I couldn't believe it was real.
I woke up this morning sore and bruised all over. I know he must be sorry cause he sent me flowers today.

I got flowers today, and it wasn't mother's day or any other special day.

Last night, he beat me up again, it was much worse than all the other times. If I leave him, what will I do? How will I take care of my kids? What about money?
I'm afraid of him and scared to leave. But I know he must be sorry because he sent me flowers today.

I got flowers today. Today was a very special day. It was the day of my funeral!
Last night, he finally killed me. He beat me to death. If only I had gathered enough courage to leave him, I would not have gotten flowers today.......

If you are against domestic abuse, please pass this along to everyone,
NOT just women.

It is taking ages to load pages or I get a message telling me servers are busy.

So I am giving up for tonight, I really cannot be bothered with this lol!

Have a good evening folks

Last day of term has arrived at last!

Of course I will still have to get up early to get my two to school still but I have finished yipeeeee!

It has felt like a very long term, yet it wasn't that long really. We are all tired and exhausted and today was very long.

Mass in church and having to deal with a couple of children who didn't behave at all well

But now I can relax, I can get a grip on the dieting lark and start to focus again. I have been out of control lately. The house is a tip and there is so much that needs to be done.

I have most of youngest child's new school uniform now, just need to get his pe kit, a new pair of shoes and a new bag - amazing what he manages to talk me into getting.

Imagine an eight year old with hands on hips "but mum you really don't want me to start a new school with a bag that is falling apart and scruffy shoes, you don't want me to let you down now do you?"

Right have to go and get a few bills paid. Got paid yesterday and realised what I still have to pay - pity it will not last for long lol!
