I had wonderful plans in my head to completely blitz the house today.

My list includes:

  • Put all washing away (HATE)
  • Clean kitchen, wash cloths and tea towels. Put clean ones out.
  • Unload and reload dishwasher
  • Hoover, sweep and mop all floors.
  • Hang wet washing.
  • Tidy bedrooms
  • Clean bathroom
  • Remake guest bedroom (strip bed, Hoover, flip mattress, remake bed..)

Yet, I'm still in bed with DD watching Netflix. She's had Jaffa Cakes and a smoothie for breakfast.
I just feel shit at the moment. Really down.
I'm completely on my own. Single parent (DD is with me 24/7), my DDad is working 5 hours away, all other family live 10 hours away.
No friends here yet. Ankylosis spondylitis is flaring up, as is my IBS. I've woken up this morning missing my mum terribly. I had a dream last night that made me think of her, picked up the phone to call her before it sunk in that she wasn't here anymore Sad
It really just feels overwhelming.

Can anyone please just give me a kick up the arse. DD deserves better than a day lounging in bed.

Oh, and I also need to swap over the living and dining rooms. Moving sofas, TV, table&chairs.
Which should be really fun Confused
