just got back from shopping. it was the last thing i needed to be doing but it was a case of having to. I feel totally drained mentally and physically. My head is starting to hurt again. I am sat here in tears....I can't physically do anymore even if i wanted to. There is still so much that needs doing but i really cant even lift myself up enough to even go up the stairs.....WTF is wrong with me??? I feel so damned useless and crap.

Titania you are a brilliant person! You do soooo much! Take some time for you, f**k ironing the sheets, the other week I have to admit it got late and I just could not be bothered to get the sheets out of the drier and sort the bed out, so instead me and DP slept in sleeping bags! Take care Titania xx

leave the ironing honey. warm comfy drink of horlicks

Let me share something with you - when dd was tiny there was more than once I slept in bed with nothing on it at all because I was just too knackered to bother. Your house does not need to be perfect, or even normal. Just do what desperately needs it and bugger the rest, get DH to shift his arse.

pixiefish · 07/03/2005 21:27

rest, have a drink of horlicks or something relaxing- hot chocolate etc and put your feet up

Please Titania don't iron it. You are making me at the thought of our (clean) but v screwed up bed clothes

mummytosteven · 07/03/2005 21:26

DH should be doing that for you if you really feel you can't collapse into bed without the linen being ironing.

no, not even normal, WK. T does loads of housework and has an immaculate place. ten times as much as I do round the house.

wobblyknicks · 07/03/2005 21:24

WHatever it is CAN wait, you need to rest. You are NOT useless, you're normal. Take it easy and don't be so hard on yourself, none of us are superwoman.

thedogmother · 07/03/2005 21:24

Rest, as much as you can.

mummytosteven · 07/03/2005 21:23

T. I seriously think you do too much. Honest. You are allowed to sit down, put your feet up, go to bed. Migraines are very sapping, you need to rest.

Xena · 07/03/2005 21:23

oh Titania I'm never good with words so I will be thinking of youxxxx
