I feel like complete and utter hell. I've had an allergic reaction to something, and look like hell. I'm not sure if it's hayfever, or something else. But right now, I have the 'orrible puffy eyes, my eczema has flared back up, and my nose is like a damn tap.
While I was running DS's bath, he came running through and asked me to clean his foot. Turns out he'd shat on my jeans, which he'd knocked off the ironing pile. And trod in it.
Add to that, his useless sperm donor father hasn't phoned ONCE, or texted, or whatever since DS and I returned from visiting his parents at the beginning of the month. Not heard a word from any of them. Is that really how fucking little they care about DS? I haven't had credit to call them, or text them. At all. Would it hurt them to put the effort in and make a phone call?
I've also found out I've failed the first year of Uni. I can retake the failed modules, but I feel utterly shit to have screwed this up. AIBU to just want to curl up and cry?
AIBU?
To want to cry? (Sympathy or "pull yourself together" needed...)

If your ds is safely tucked up in bed, take to the sofa or your own bed with a big box of tissues and have a good wallow with or without a 
Take stock tomorrow when your first priority should be a trip to the quack to sort out your 'allergy'. followed by organising retakes
Re the sperm donor & his ancestors; nothing's likely to change so you're best advised not to shed tears over any of them.

Have you got any antihistamines for your allergic reaction?
The rest of it just take one thing at a time, clear up the shit (without focusing too much on it), ignore sperm donor (your DS has you) and resolve to take your uni modules again because you know you didn't give it the time needed.
Don't curl up and cry, be strong like you know you can be, and don't let it grind you fucking down

Here, have a [hug] and a 
and some and some 
(any of those that aren't emoticons should be!) You should probably have some 
too (because you need them, not because this is a crap thread!)
Hopefully it will all feel better in the morning, but if not, come back here and moan take DS for a run around the park and treat yourself to an ice cream.
Take care.
TY, princessJenga. I'm booked in for a haircut tomorrow, so might give me a bit of a boost for the non-hayfever related stuff. Mum rather helpfullly reminded me it's father's day soon, earlier. Nearly had me in a blubbery mess...
Nope, not pregnant or pmt-ing, before anyone asks... 
Ah, haircut. Much better than wine or tea! Take it easy and enjoy it
If the allergic reaction hasn't gone maybe you could get a carefully placed fringe?
I love it! Might get it dyed black, with a few colour slices in, lip ring and go full blown emo...
Thanks, NonnoMum, dw, I will be careful :)
I'm using a slice of cucumber on the eye which is worse affected. Ironically, it's the eye I don't usually have problems with... 
But it's soothing it a bit
