When will things just go “well” again?!

Pity party for one here…

Been feeling under the weather for about a month now. Toddler germs, lack of sleep, and generally just run down.

PCOS and adenomyosis have flared up and I was subjected to my first period in over 2 months this weekend. Lovely stuff.

On top of that, I caught Covid last week (yes still testing, have clinically vulnerable relatives), now negative but still feel crap. House needs a deep clean, I’ve loads on at work and can feel my target slipping (lawyer with chargeable units and revenue) and my toddler isn’t 100% either.

DH is carrying us but I can see he is also struggling as under a lot of stress. I isolated in our bedroom for 4 days with the Covid to stop him and toddler getting it (and the inevitable juggle of wfh with a toddler if he had caught it and couldn’t go to childcare. Luckily the isolating worked and he too is still negative!)

xmas meal with work on weds in a different city an hour away, and think I’ll have to cancel to allow myself to rest.

We are fortunate enough to have a full fridge of food but I just can’t be bothered making anything, even though I know the veg will do me the world of good.

So many things going round my head, I just wish I could feel better, tackle the house , and go back to enjoying things again (and for DS to sleep!)

can I get through to Friday when I’ll try book a days annual leave to get on top of everything (washing ironing cleaning et al?!)
