I’ve had a shit day. I didn’t sleep well last night at all. According to be sleep diary I got about an hour. Fab. Couldn’t nap during the day either cos my body wouldn’t let me

I was having a fibro attack. So I was in pain all day, dizzy and foggy and just so drained but can’t sleep

Have to travel 30 mins to the hospital to get test results. He had us in the room for 5 mins and then we had to drive 30 mins back. The test results could have been done over the phone and I wouldn’t have had the pain of bumps on the road

It was all ok cos I was gonna Chinese tonight. I’ve been craving chow mein for days. I ordered it, it got accepted and I waited. And waited. And waited. I called them to find out that they had listed on the website as closed but not justeat where I had ordered. They had to close because of a water main break. UUUUUUUUUGGGGGGHHHH I’m not happy but I’m not cooking so I order McDonald’s for me and the kids.

That arrives….with everything except my full order. I got my burger and not my fries. My dad single cheeseburger but not my large fries that would have filled me up.

Well that’s it, I’ve just burst into tears and I can’t stop crying now. I feel awful cos my poor kids are thing to comfort me. Dd offered me her fries but no I can’t food off her when it’s her actual tea

Fucking fed up. Roll on tomorrow.

Those days when you feel you just shouldn’t have got out of bed but responsibilities force you too. Hope it’s a better day today!

Sometimes when I have days like this and it’s one thing after the other i genuinely question if I am the subject of a tv show like the Truman show and everyone is a paid actor set out to annoy me for the day 😂

I know!!!! It really was a kick in the teeth.

Just now not so patiently waiting for water to come back on. Water company is supposed to be delivering bottled water but we will see.

i can now say i was lucky in two parts here

One, I have one of those one cup kettles. I had water in it from yesterday, so I got a cup of tea! Yey

Two. We have one of those 5000 litre paddling pools outside that was still full from summer. We can take buckets from it, to actually flush the toilets!! We are the only family on our entire estate who actually have a working flushing toilet Grin

The company should come round with bottled water for you. They did when our water was turned off for a few hours.

Yeah they are doing it but there are literally hundreds of houses without water right now
