Have A Good Old Moan....

My mother is really jealous of my relationship with my future mother in law and it's making trying to get back to normal life an even more hellish ordeal than it already is. She's suspicious and has a go if my future mother in law does anything to help me or to be kind to me. My fiance's mother is lovely and has offered us help with affording our first place together. This is a big thing for me, as I'm really using our soon-to-be-new-home as something to keep me going and to look forward to on my darker days. Now my mum is jealous over it and I don't even know what to do?!

I think the right side of my face is going to explode soon. Or implode. Something.

Stupid earache 🙁

And I still have lots of work and packing to do.

Just posted in the good vibrations thread about getting my birthday tattoo today, but my tattooist has had to cancel our appointment 🙁 Gutted 🙁

Sneezing with an ear that is sealed closed because it's so swollen has to the the worst pain I've felt in my head. Ow ow ow owowowowow

Oh god Janine I've been there 🙁 I hope you feel better soon.

I poked myself in the eye with a knitting needle this morning.

Ow! I feel your pain there too!

Eating with a sore jaw because of earache isn't fun either.

Sorry, probably going to moan lots and lots today! I want to have all my work finished, but I keep having to stop as painkillers are doing bugger all. 🙁

I really feel for you Janine, I suffer with ear infections and they are one of the worst pains to have 🙁

My moan is I'm still healing from my burns and now I have a rotten cold. They say things come in 3's so I think I'll hibernate for a while!

I am having a fairly bad day for a handful of reasons 🙁

🙁 hope things are better soon Glitter

I want to wash my manky hair but can't get ear wet. poop.

My dr said to use cotton wool covered in vaseline when I wanted to wash my hair. It creates a seal and stops the water going in, works for me anyway 🙂

I tried that the last time I had an infection. It got washed out of my ear though, so I daren't do it this time! I may though if my head gets too itchy.

Ear ache is the absolute worst 🙁 You can buy stuff from Boots called Ear Calm which helps mine loads (if you don't already have something to treat them)

 Your future MIL sounds like a blessing. I too struggle with a "jealous/ suspicious" Mom & did over the years. I had to try my best to distance myself from ill comments & go with the good in my life. It is a tough thing to go through. I read some of Boundaries by Townsend I think to get me through tougher parts. There are many books from different perspectives on boundaries.

Goodluck with your New Future plans to prosper & grow. Sometimes those closest to us (Mom's) want to have control. Hang in there and focus on the good as best you can.

I wanted to give stretching my lobes a go (not huge) but my boyfriend said he really really doesnt like them. That's that plan out the window haha

^^ Nobody I know likes them... I did it anyway ;D

I have to give a presentation tomorrow at uni to people I have recently had arguments/falling out with.  I'm anxious enough without having to do it to people that I know for a fact dislike me
