Bleurgh.

Yesterday we had various parties and activities for the DCs so it was a busy day. Today we decided to have a chilled out day, decorate the Christmas tree, watch a film or two.

Everyone is getting on each other's nerves. Tired, grumpy, irritable.

Meh.

I'll join you in feeling meh.
I'm on day 9 of having a viral infection / flu . I'm just fed up with it now. I went 4 days mainly in bed and didn't even wash as I was feeling so bad.
Last night couldn't sleep as could not breathe and felt as if I was suffocating . Thankfully got an appointment at ooh and I have been given antibiotics and steroids. That plus some bronchial mix £ 25 !
So yes definitely men .

meh !

Meh too. I'm running on a forgetful person's memory of fumes of energy. Horrifically busy at work, theatre trip, manning stall at the school fair, meal out, working overtime today.

Get well soon @VictoriaBun

Lots of viruses around. I have a chronic illness which makes me feel like I'm coming down with something constantly so I never know if I'm just feeling normally shitty or have a virus on top.

Next weekend I'm getting everyone outdoors in the fresh air I think.

I was feeling meh then I painted the living room for a few hours.Ive now had a bottle of white and instead I'm feeling pissed.

EvaHarknessRose · 08/12/2019 19:17

Yep. Had a fab Friday off work, Saturday was great. Now meh. Have escaped up to our room to do yoga and read but I forgot the wine

queenofttheyorkies · 08/12/2019 19:23

I think it's this time of year to be honest. The kids have ripped chunks out of each other all day as have me and my husband everybody's tired of school and work and Christmas stress is getting to everyone ! X hope you all feel better soon

I'm in the middle of writing my Dissertation, I'm half way through and wondering where the hell I'm going to find the next 3,000 words. I'm in student accommodation where 98% of the students are Chinese and don't mix, and won't see my husband until the 20th December when I go home for Christmas. And I have one measure of gin left.

BedraggledBlitz · 08/12/2019 19:41

I'm hungover and in sole charge of 5yo who woke up 4 hours after I got in from my night out. I broke myself and spent morning puking and shitting.

Now got beer fear and dissecting all of my drunken conversations.

Never. Again.

Hugs for all the meh gang x

Very meh today, mother managed to block the loo last night by using kitchen roll.

I've been running around all day after her and attempting to tackle the loo but now may not get home until 11pm after I've had a shower and travelled. All I want to do is curl up with bf and have a cup of tea :(

Me! I’ve had a really busy weekend running 3dc everywhere, visiting my Granny to do her cleaning and take her shopping, homework with youngest (reading and sculpture building which of course I didn’t do but needed to go and get supplies for and then clean up after), cooking, washing and cleaning at home all while dp is laid up recovering from knee surgery! He’s been home for the last week, lounging about watching telly (like he’s supposed to be!) and has another week at least off.
Now of course I don’t begrudge him the rest time but I’m flat out knackered and trying to get Christmas shopping squeezed in here there and everywhere at the same time, back to work tomorrow and just feel like I could do with some me time.
Meh indeed. Got to go, chores are awaiting Grin

Allmyarseandpeggymartin · 08/12/2019 19:51

Yep me too. Hung over from too many Christmas parties. My diet has gone to shit which always makes me feel worse.

Still loads of Christmas stuff to do, DS is exhausted and there’s still two weeks of work to go.

CakeNinja · 08/12/2019 19:51

Haha yes, before anyone else comments, I’m aware I’m coming across as very selfish and self pitying, outwardly I’m absolutely fine and smiling And lovely as I bring dp ice packs and medicine Grin

Bluewavescrashing · 08/12/2019 19:52

Well I've bullied the kids into tidying up and they've had baths, got stuff ready for tomorrow and DH put them to bed.

My DCs have winter birthdays and most of their friends do too. So lots of parties. Both of the parties yesterday were manic and one was also a sleepover so DD is shattered. I've tried not to plan too many Christmas activities, today we just decorated the tree and bought some new lights.

If it's not raining tomorrow I'll try to take them to the park straight after school. Bit of fresh air works wonders.

Yeah - and it's my birthday today
Had surgery last week so sore, moved house so surrounded by boxes and a mountain of shit to sort and barely anyone has remembered/acknowledged (nc with family) so just very meh today

Bluewavescrashing · 08/12/2019 20:11

Happy birthday @EvilHerbivore 🎂

Oh @EvilHerbivore happy birthday 🥳
Well no wonder you’re feeling so rubbish. Hope you’re not doing too much after your surgery, if you were near me I would have been round delivering you cups of tea and biscuits Flowers
Enjoy the rest of your birthday evening x
