Coping with Mum returning back home

I hope everyone is OK.My Mum is returning back to her home and I will find myself alone and isolated.

I have struggled with loneliness and isolation since 2018 and my attempts at finding employment and it is essential I regain employment.

I have to make fundamental changes as I am seeking to relocate once I put my property on the market .

Every time my Mother goes back home , I find myself having to start again and it is always very hard for me each time Mum returns back

Hello Roukaya you will get through this I understand it's lonely at times I stayed at my mum's Tuesday after my colonoscopy I thought would rather go home but glad I stayed there I didn't want to be alone yet she annoys me at times, I went home next day and wished I was still sleeping at mam's thought of my inflamed colon in bed alone kinda discrumpled me but I knew I needed to be independent like I always have been well mainly and now I'm back in my routine, I'm on a date site but not sure if I will be bothered probably in summer I'll make the effort, fate as a way of sorting things but we need to give it a helping hand, so glad you've put your property on market you can get a pet companion soon I hope a dog will be wonderful there great and yull makes so many friends, take care 🤗💛✨🌻

Dear Twinkly Sunflower

I hope you are well.

As with you , I only have my Mother and she lives between U.K. and overseas .

She means well and can be supportive but can be a little demanding.

My neighbours no longer speak with me .Given my age of 54, I hope by Gods grace to put my property on the market in September and I cannot do this before as there are tenants in the Property.

How are you ?

Hello again R thanks for asking I am health foccused at moment as on a heeling curve diagnosed Ulcerative colitis shock as been in remisshion 9 half years, makes us take stock of things when we think may have cancer and a health problem, luckily I'm on the mend still waiting for biopsy results but they never saw any cancer,strict diet and meds hoping to come off meds never took before but I'm older now maby my insides are more delicate, I've took up yoga and going to start meditation CD again I must stay calm and control my anxiety and feel with life's triggers better, I was unsure on coming back here so I will take it easy, and spend most of my time outdoors in better weather, my garden is my sanctuary a place of heeling for sure, I'm planting sunflower seeds soon I'll watch them grown and stroke them, and see them twinkling and standing proud and tall in my garden 😁 I hope you get a nice green space in your next home, why don't you try yoga go to a class therel be nice people there, your age should have nothing to do with nebours talking to you mine are 8o one side we chatter away to each other, and other side think in there 6os I'm late 5os, I talk to people of all ages I'm 35 in my mind lol sometimes feel ten like a cheeky kid 🤩 time takes time but one day your life will come together for you, I have many regrets in mine one been to choosey with men as I know you are, it's having a good heart that counts not looks, eye colour height etc lol or money good men are hard to find, I believe in fate and many women are happy independent on there own I am most the time but I'd rather have someone than not my mam.wont be around forever, it can be daunting at times on your own running a house workmen aren't always available or decent can rip us off, hope you consider looking into yoga class etc I'll be swimming when I'm better 🤗💛✨🌻

There was a place where I lived years ago where they sold the place and thankfully I was protected as I had a fixed term contract so there was nothing they could do about it until the contract ended!

I stayed there for 7.5 years in total!
