Feeling blue

My dh has just come home from hospital. I asked for a separation two weeks ago due to his drinking. He then finally made the step of going to seek help, but has yet to be referred. Unfortunately, at the same time as all this happened, he got some weird infection in his foot which meant that he could not walk. I had to fetch and carry for him for one week and he has been in hospital for one week. He is now home again and not allowed to move, so I have to fetch and carry for him again.

I feel a bit blue about it all because I have 3 kids to look after (one only ten weeks old) and due to his foot infection, nothing much has happened about the drinking. I asked his mother to look after him but she said she couldn't help.

On top of this I have been trying to set up a website and it isn't going well.

Just wanted to get that off my chest really

Tea and sympathy would be nice!

Sending you sympathy, but don't have any practical suggestions. Do you have a friend who could come and help you with the baby and let you have a nap?

Hopefully my parents are coming on Saturday so I will have a rest then. Things always seem better when you have had a good sleep.
