I hope you feel better soon Wannabe. No wonder you're exhausted, but you're a miracle worker holding it all together and caring for your family.

I’m not surprised you’re exhausted - please don’t forget to look after yourself. Won’t do the little ones any good if you end up even more poorly than you have been.

Thank you.

Think I'm struggling with the back cloud a little. It's so exhausting. Then the worry and things on top is not helping. Tomorrow we are back at the children's. This means an earlier start than usual. Walk to drop the older two at school. Walk the 45 minutes at least into town to the main train station to get the train into the city. Then quite a walk that end then that in reverse to get back. Walking to prevent the extra travel costs on top of the train fare and school costs for breakfast and after school care. Really hoping tomorrow shoes more normal blood results so we don't have to come back Friday. Emergency review is being scheduled as soon as possible so that will be another day over there too.

We finally have the xmas tree up. I haven't baked so have used some of the xmas treats in pack lunches and bribes to keep the youngest peaceful when needed.

Really haven't got much else done or to say. What a long dark month and we are only just half way through. The weather is as miserable as me and we have been wet all day!

What a moany post

Not moan - honest....you need to be able to vent somewhere.
I don’t envy you being out today - it’s been horrendous.

Not a moany post at all.
Just saying it as it is.
I don't know how you do it x

A long dark month but the season changes on 21st and the birds start singing again a few days later - I always love that. (How do they know?)

The weather has been wet and windy today. I hope it's better for you tomorrow. x

Sounds a long way with a little one. Hope the weather is dry for you tomorrow.

You're not moaning - just explaining the next few days.



That's a hell of a walk there and back. Do you currently have a weekly/month bus pass you can use to get from railway station to hospital?



You're doing brilliantly. Like everyone else I'm not sure how I you keep it up.. X

Thank you.

I took my painkillers and went to bed leaving more to do This Morning:o But we've got it done and are going to be heading off for school in a couple of minutes.

The wet/cold along with the walking leaves me feeling 90. So I wasn't in a very good mood last night

PB I have a monthly bus pass. Youngest doesn't though so I'd need to pay for her. It's nearly £10 for us both train fare So I can't afford any extra bus fare this month

Have made youngest a pack lunch. Have packed snacks and drinks for her and a bottle of water myself. Hoping for no spends other than the train fare and £15 to school.

I'm missing something the older two are doing at school this evening and I feel guilty But kind of glad it saves the costs of going on top of everything else

Hope you all have a lovely day xx

I hope things improve soon. It's not moaning, anyway, it's your diary and if it helps to offload here then do so.
