Next weekend (28th) DD is competing in a comp in Blackpool
Originally I was going on the coach Friday 6am and coming home on the coach 7pm Sunday evening (DD & DH will be doing this)
But I have to work Friday so would be travelling up by car (with my mum driving) late on Friday & now the coach isn't coming back until 10 or 11pm (So we might not get home til 5 or 6am)
I start work at 7:30 on Monday morning and was considering getting the train home (6hrs) so I could be sure I was there to work Monday morning
Now this is where the guilt/illness comes in - I have been poorly for weeks this autumn - 5 weeks straight 3 weeks better then another week ill again - I finished my 3rd lot of A-B's yesterday & am back off to the GP tonight expecting more A-Bs.
Would I be awful to say I just can't come so I can get better properly (nice quiet weekend, no 6 hrs journey (2 ways), no major stress etc)
DD would still have her dad, her Nana, my god-mum watching her. DH takes her to comps all the time (they just come back the same day)
& I feel so guilty even suggesting it
