As you can see I had lots of time in the night to do more planning and sorting of birthdays :rotfl:
I feel happier now than I have in so long. I know there's still the underlying MH. I'm so grateful for all the help I have received. All the messages, replies and things. Thank you :A
Having so much wrote down in lists and plans and things has made me feel much less worried. Even if it's very repetitive

Shame about the party but I don't blame you for staying inside, it's freezing out there especially for DD if she's not feeling 100% to start with. Best to stay inside wrapped up warm.
Nice to hear you sounding so cheerful. I think saving up for a bed should definitely be a priority when the smalls birthdays are done and dusted. Having your own room to retreat to at the end of the day would be lovely.

Are there any charities in your area that can help provide a bed? A quick google has brought up something called Urban Outreach in your area. Perhaps you could see if they can help? XxDebts @ LBM £23,729.31. Debts @ 08/04/2016 £0 :j

Youngest is quite poorly

I haven't looked Lucky, it's not urgent. If it was the smalls who needed something I would but it can wait.

Oh no
You were only saying a couple of days ago how a cold is never just that for her. Is it something you know you can manage yourself, or will you have to call somebody out? xx 0 -

Sometimes you need to put yourself first.
