Is anybody else having a bad day?

Yeah today has been such a "meh" day.
I'm sad/annoyed about a mix of things but equally no answers/can be bothered to talk about it.

Anything you can do this evening to make it better?

Yes. I'm absolutely knackered, I've had a huge acne breakout and have had to spend my day working with people who are insanely rude and/or stupid.

However I have a chicken roasting in the oven for myself and my beautiful boyfriend and I'm going out for a couple of drinks with my mate tonight to discuss MAFS 😂

The past version of myself would have killed for a day like this and would not have seen it as bad (I know that really it isn't)

Don’t be sorry . You’ve nothing to be sorry for . I’m sorry to hear about your husband too. Is he going through the nhs for his tests?

Yes but we’re in Scotland so the wait isn’t too long. They have said they aren’t concerned just now but that’s doesn’t help really.

@Imbluedalale
I think you are perfectly entitled to be thoroughly pissed off given everything you are dealing with.
Your ex sounds like a right piece of work and hopefully, with time, you will be glad to have him out of your life. Doesn't make his appalling behaviour any better in the short term but you are better than that and deserve someone who will treat you like you deserve to be treated.
I hope you get sorted re your housing situation. That must be a worry. And then buy yourself some Ferrero Rocher all of your own and enjoy every single one of them. Hang in there....

Thank you toomuchlikemyusername.
It’s my children I’m worried about too as I have been told there’s no houses available at the moment so will have to be put up in a hotel /bedsit which my support worker said are not very nice for about 8 weeks and it might not be in town I’m in just depends what is available so children will have to stay here so they can still go to school /college . So it’s the thought of being in hotel room by myself missing my children . I’m so angry that exs life isn’t going to change at all and he wants me gone asap so he can go’official’ with his new gf . He me walking around so happy and unbothered whilst I can’t hardly even walk from room to kitchen

Well l'm being hit on right, left & centre and.... aaaargh. I know, it's supposed to be a compliment, and its not the worst thing that can happen to a young woman but.... aaaargh... I've been hit on today in a car park, a lobby, at an interview... & goodness knows where else.
Yeah I know I get told "you won't be beautiful forever". Well good...
Sorry.

Not the best of days. My dad was recently diagnosed with an illness and is struggling with the treatment, we've got a blocked sewer, hoping the water company will come out tomorrow to sort out but they said "within a few days". Also one of my children is unwell, we can't figure out what's causing it.

I almost lost my mind earlier during the school run as other parents insist on blocking access. We have one entrance/exit to the school and parents insist on standing right in front of the gate, blocking anyone from getting past.
Then once their child comes out, they continue to stand in the way whilst asking how their kids day went. Everyday I want to yell "Get your kid and f-off!" It's infuriating.

I can't remember the last time I wasn't pissed off, stressed or exhausted.

Found head lice in my 10 year old daughters thick dry hair - not a good day

Sorry to hear about your dad Weverunoutofteabags.
I hope he gets better soon . I’ve recently had cancer treatment , I was due to have 9 cycles but they had to stop it after the first because instead of attacking my cancer cells it attacked my nerves and has made me paralysed down my right side .
I hope the sewer people can sort your blockage out tomorrow and I hope your child gets better soon.
My children are in secondary school now but I definitely don’t miss the school runs (I do a little bit ) but I don’t miss the mums who insist on chatting (gossiping) right at the gate . So infuriating!

Me.

Raging PMT, and my children have been annoying the hell out of me. Which makes me feel guilty because a year ago, a lot of families in my home country lost children in the October 7 pogrom.

Sadly not, but I am going to let my 8yr old sleep in with me tonight - he asks often but it's like sleeping with an octopus on acid so I often say no! Think his cuddles will help ❤️

Oh I don’t miss those days . Best thing that worked when my children had them was tea tree oil I put a few drops in a cup of boiled water and went through hair every other day . Apparently the mice are becoming immune to shop bought treatments but they absolutely hate tea tree oil and it worked a treat

lol 😂 bless him . I’m trying to spend time with my children as much as I can as I don’t think ex will let me take youngest to a hotel/bedsit so I’ll probably be without them for 8 weeks and he won’t fetch them to see me . Just spent 3 weeks in cancer hospital and he didn’t fetch them to see me once

Oh gosh that would be super hard! What a shit of a man! Is there anyone else who can bring them to see you?

I don’t really have anyone else . I have a sister but she works full time and I’ve just spent a few days with her last week to get away from everything. She said she will bring the children to see me . I’m going to miss them so much my heart is breaking
