Beautiful sunny day today cooler this afternoon but reflects my mood today . I feel calmer today, my niece visited me yesterday we are going shopping Monday :) i feel like im moving on although its slow and still a painful, im saddened by my friend that is so called 'neutral' because in fact shes not - shes with the other one not with me. I have things going on with her and once they are done she too im sorry to say will be down the road, after all she has my friend to keep her company!
YES im still griping - it hurts!
but i AM getting there. Today i auctioned, was a nice day the dogs had a good run and are now snoring although they need to be bathed :/
I do too!
The brother-in-laws were at the auction was interesting seeing them mooch about together, auctioning is a new experience for one of them .
Im painting, and oh yes 'thank you' tikka grrr trampled on a wet oil i had laid down for a second :( i have thankfully managed to repair phew!!
Exhibit is 18th this month and another at the beer festival is 9th June.
My viki's cat has 4 kittens and the other is pregnant too - shes allowing them one litter each and then they will be neutered.
The diet
:/ i think ive put on a few pounds :'( bit miffed i've not been so bad thought i might stay the same at worst or maybe lose up to a lb but not to put on :( cracking back down since i stepped on my scales but they are old and unreliable so im hoping !!!!
Will be churching tomorrow with georgina - shes done a clear out today so will be sorting some stuff to auction for her.
so thats the news
and average fairly warm day cooling :)
Off for my bath ....
liam
my grandson the yoda lol

CALM - breathe deeply
So im trying to move on - today is a better day, still sad, still upset im still struggling and still angry i let myself be fooled again by so called friends
HOWEVER,
I am moving on - I've got my paintings done for first exhibit, whilst down down met my sister we hadd a coffee and chin wag :) she seems to have the same luck as me with people - treated like crap, i think we are to easy going so they think they can take advantage and when we pull them up on some thing they are shocked and clearly dont like being caught out as users !
One thing my dad installed in us is fairness, we were taught to help the 'under dog' to care for people, to help where we can for no self gain - WELL DAD - IT DOESNT WORK we just get trampled on by all and sundry. They also have the nerve to blame us for their faults, their bad behaviour all because we say 'hang on a minute' and they dont like it!
So yep im venting again, it helps me and thats what my blog is for.
I went today and visited Martyns grave, had a cry and told him 'i knew how he must have felt, i have been there - but unlike him i wanted to stay here, yes its lonely and painful, but i want to live i want to go on and try to improve my life for as long as i have it' I asked if he could help me, i asked my mum and dad and ive asked God, im trying to help myself but some times you just cant do it on your own and i need help, i need help now. I dont have any friends certainly none that i can trust let alone depend on - all i have had in that department is betrayal so - i go onward alone YES i have a family but they are grown doing their own thing and hubby well, hes a work a holic :/ hes around but he doesnt really understand. Also hes enough on his plate, hes the only bread winner, the people we have lost has effected him to some were his familly his friends.
So here i am working on things wishing this pain and heartache would leave me and let me get on instead of pulling me continually down. I so wish i had people round me that didnt add to the distress things are truely bad enough!
SO...... The diet
Well today i got back on track - shock yesterday with a lb gain and i am sooooooooooooo not going there !!!! i did jog yesterday and dug and raked the allotment couldnt move much today lol but diet is back on track after bit of a binge, self sabotage weekend.
So optomistic need to crack down on some more exercise and keep in check with what foods im eating
My paintings are done! already for the 18th may exhibit (only 4 to display due to shortness of time )
I have canvas now and started a couple for the 9th june Beer festival run out of white oils so need to sort that tomorrow. I have a few others from previous exhibits that will go there too
Still lots to sort out - trying to keep up and replenish finances, working out a plan and feel better for doing that. Its helped with the likes of putting thing in more focus and importance instead of scattered and lost and forgotten until some thing is 'to late' or otherwise.
My tups and nicks birthdays coming up Tups will get a treat bless her, My nick is in need of some dosh so will send him as much as i can

Alone again - Naturally :(
Would have been my darts night - im missing it - i miss my friends :( but i have to remember i guess that they werent really my friends, like most others they used me . My so called best friend is staying neutral only so she gets the best of both worlds - ive always know she was a licker but i didnt think she would go this far - its the second time shes left me alone there wont be a 3rd !
Im trying to move on - looking at new things to do, but its hard when you have no one. Hubby is tired he works so hard most everyone i know does other things they have families my kids are grown and gone even my grandson teenager is to old now to keep nan company :(
Im tired - tired of being used, tired of all this pain, tired of being blamed for some thing i didnt do, im tired of losing those i care about - seems every thing i do is wrong 7 years of crap and being crapped on :(
Ive sooooooo had enough - i cant fight much longer , i cant keep being kicked and getting up for more i just cant.
I some times think of Martyn and the choice he made and can almost understand why, theres only just so many times you can get up. Im tired of being sad

To renew from disappointment, sadness, pain and anger !
so I need to move on ... I keep trying, I do all I can to stay out of all this rubbish and someones pettiness just comes back and hits me in the face - I've reacted - I've not reacted, I've tried the calm, the discussions, the compromises, the ignore, the forget about it, the anger, the withdrawal, you name it, I've tried it and still I'm here worn and tired from all the pain and hurt people keep hurling at me. They go on about their business as usual having left me in a heap.
I'm so disappointed in my so called 'friend' its really hurt me, and my other so called 'friend' is taking her side 'poor thing shes so upset' I guess I'm not???
I'm the one discluded from everything, its me that no longer plays darts. Its me that doesn't get to go out any more, its me that's lost out not her or them!
But, putting all that rubbish aside, I'm still left with what to do to move on, get rid of this pain - leave all this behind me, I'm just so tired of this happening to me, why does everyone think they can treat me so badly and make it my fault?
Guess I'm the hare :(
I keep moving on leaving and losing all I love - so here I go again .
Im just bemused
warn down and battered, life just becoming to much to bear. I dont know how much more I can do ....
Wouldn't that be good ? I wish !!!!

guess it must be me ?
I should have guessed really - even just from my poor blogging stats does no one have any compassion ? can no one see all that ive been through that i still get treated badly by them?
My facebook friends are many but most dont participate with me much, some are people that know my family and remain loyal to them and me just because im part of that family . Other are people of people i know and dont really know ME.
Recently i lost 16lb (chuffed to bits by the way :)) its dampened by the fact my friend (who has same facebook friends ) has now lost 10 she got 12 likes i got 3 ?? what did she do that i didnt ?
Yeah i guess it must be me - but why - im an easy going person, i help out any way i can any time ive rarely let anyone down if anything STUPIDLY, gone out my way, causing myself inconvenience.
Ive listened to huge amounts of drunken and sober drama, crap and total drivell, ive advised, lent money, assisted, supported - done all i can for sooooooooo many people you name it ive done it .. what do i get in return ???
I get nothing or i get blamed for their faults, wtf ??? how does that happen ???
what do i do wrong ?? why me?? what??!!!!
Was i wrong to say im not being used ? although that was only after my so called friend went to town on me over nothing :/ throwing up all sorts of rubbish , when i replied she didnt like it and IM THE ONE TO BLAME????? Then to top itm my other 'friend' (whose also been complaining ) is now licking, she still gets to enjoy the dart game i introduced her to, and 'my friends' and thinks its ok that im cast out!
Just goes on as if nothing has happened - no support no loyalty if only the others knew her views were the same as mine ummmm ! but lucky her im not like them! And despite having no friends i dont want to be like them, i wouldnt ever be like that to anyone, deceitful, spiteful, using and abusing - no i would rather be on my own .
How much more unfairness do i have to take ?? - i didnt do anything!!!!!!!!!! :( i give everyone my all, i never ask anyone for anything EVER :( i get little or nothing from anyone, ever ! not anyone!
Family are little different, so i guess its me - i dont know why - i cant change without knowing what wrong, how can i?? do i want to, i pretty sure i dont want to be like them so what would i have to be like? Everyone is happy around me. happy to take. happy to have me help. happy for me to support them, care for them - just not happy to return any thing to me .
As things are, who will notice when im gone?? - few might take note not sure anyone would really care, at least not for long . I know i have no one in my life that will miss me, how sad is that but its ok, ive known for a long time. I guess this is the last straw you can only be kicked so many times eventually you stop getting up.
Its time for me to move away from all this - from all these people that continually hurt me, time for me to go.
Guess i will look at a life alone for now i know i cant trust anyone.
So i depart from my 'dear friends' my family i still fight on for whether they want me or not, they are my responsibility and always will be. As for the rest i will be polite, i will keep my distance, im not destined to have close friends, i know now i couldnt trust them old or new. Old as they have already lost my trust, new because of the old ones, i could never trust anyone i dont know, how could i when the ones i have known intimately have continually let me down, betrayed me, hurt me - how could i trust anyone ever again??
So with heavy heart - tomorrow i start anew - It seems what ever i do is wrong so im expecting little to change but at least no one can blame me for their wrong doings too, all i will be doing in future will be done on my own.
They say dont judge others till you walk in their shoes, well my shoes wore out along time ago - i dont know anyone who would have coped with the hurt loss and pain ive endured this last 7 years, so intense i almost didnt make it. But i move on now because ive not come this far to allow others to put me back there.
