The one time I had stuff to do, last week I had it all planned out, then was really ill, so nothing got done. So hoped by Monday my body would be behaving itself, this morning I have a whole new set of problems.
It's like my body is playing the wheel of fortune with me. Laughing that I can't reasonably be expected to make plans, is it going to be third time lucky? Not that I really have time with deadlines.
Just taken every medicine I have for these new problems, hoping a few hours sleep, ill at least be able to get one thing done today.
Finally bit the bullet and started this ESA malarkey, they said about this PIP thing too. I'm just going to check the letter to see if the deadlines tomorrow, or if tomorrow is another option.
The reason it's been put back and put back is I've been feeling so unwell, ironically when claiming for a sickness benefit for the first time. My body isn't wanting to play ball. DH has a unique filing system, so to get medical letters, plus other stuff they want, I need try and get everything sorted, it's going to be a nightmare.
I might need a sicknote for my sicknote to say I can't get it all in on time.
Has anyone got experience of being too ill to get stuff sorted? I'm lay down in so much pain trying to take my mind off how unwell I feel thus being on MN. If I could venture from my supine state I would have got it all done / be sorting it out now.
Ideally I'd have help, but I know what I'm looking for, it's not really a task any one could help with, even if they could I've got no help. DH cheerily announced when I said I was applying, that it had fuck all to do with him.
I despair, on so many levels.
Sorry for whining.
Hope everyone has a fantastic day, plus a fantastic start to the week. 
I honestly wonder how the actually ill people jump through these hoops. I've just left the starting line, the finish line isn't even visible. Hoping the sleep fairy waves her wand.
