Can I have a hug please?

saffronflowers

I am totally physically and emotionally exhausted. Mostly of my own doing, as I just should not fight eveything that is wrong and help anyone who needs it.

Never in my life have I needed a holiday more than I do right now. But cant take one - money, kids, life everything.

Yes I need to be more selfish but I always thing that if it was me that needed help I would hate for someone not to be there.

Sorry to be self indulgent but I needed to vent.

Poor you :grouphug: here is a cyber-hug from me!

We all have really down down days.

Sometimes just doing something different from the norm - like grabbing sandwiches and sitting in the park with a book can help cheer you up.

Take the kids and a ball and spend an afternoon in the sun.

You have the Bank Holiday coming up this weekend so its a great excuse!

BTW, you have done fab with killing off the debt, you can't forget that!

You have to learn to say "NO". Make this your goal. I know how you feel, and 3 years ago I felt just like you - then big things happened in my life and I decided that I wasnt going to be as dependable to all and sundry as I had been, because when I needed them, they wernt there for me. SO gradually (and it takes a long time to change the habit of a lifetime!) I have learned to say NO and put me (and my immediate family) first - and its soooooooooo much better. Grab some time doing what you want to do - it wont just happen - you have to make this happen for yourself - but you are worth it!!!

You can have as many hugs as you need and vent as much as you want. We are all here to support you.

Why don't you give yourself a 'holiday at home' for one complete day you will do no housework, no debt-chasing things etc - just have a long bath, read a book, go for a walk etc - whatever you enjoy doing (and make others cook your dinner!)
