A little better than the last couple of weeks thanks. I’ve been struggling through a really bad phase of health anxiety and today I’ve felt a bit more like myself. Hope it lasts.

Hope everyone else had a good one

NorthEndGal · 14/02/2019 20:47

Lovely, so far
DH got me some lovely gifts, (and made the effort to wrap them) and a card, and has ordered take away for supper.
I made him a card and baked a cake, which DS is going to decorate after work
I got confirmation that I have a spot in an upcoming craft show, and made a few good connections.
I also managed to get a fair bit done , work wise

Pretty good. It’s our wedding anniversary today and we’ve treated ourselves to a special pressie ... a fab little camper van.

Mr Expo had a grim old year last year due to a health issue, but now on the up (fingers and toes crossed) so this felt like a new adventure for us both. So today we’ve walked doggie, made a picnic, loaded up the “new” camper and been out for a jolly in the sunshine. Home about 5.30, shower and change, cooked chilli con carne and opened a bottle red to celebrate. Now chilling in my Jim jams. All in all a good day for us.

Hope you’re all ok out there in MN land and hugs and Flowers to everyone having a bad day.

I've no idea how to tag you sorry,
Took my Dad for Valentines dinner as his first alone since mum died Sad

WonderTweek · 14/02/2019 21:04

I had a nice day despite Tesco sending us rotten fish for our valentine's day dinner (we don't really do valentine's but had planned to have some nice food). I'm flying to my home country tomorrow to attend my nan's funeral and I'm sat here having a quiet weep because I have to leave my lush two-year-old for three nights. 😣 I know he'll be fine but I'll miss him terribly.

However, I'm a bit excited to see my mum, dad and my best friend again. 😍

ItsAllGone19 · 14/02/2019 21:08

The project lead I'm working with tried hanging a disaster round my neck when it belong to him, my sister was hospitalised by her husband (she's stable and will be fine), my husband just had a car crash into him crumpling the entire side of his door (he's fucking furious but assures me he's fine)...it's probably the worst day I've had in a while, but not the worst day ever so something to be thankful for.

Ragnarthe · 14/02/2019 21:13

Had my haircut this morning, enjoyed a good bitch through Hello magazine with the hairdresser.
Played on the wii with the kids after school

Oysterbabe · 14/02/2019 21:15

Really, really busy day at work. Every day is at the moment. We just can't recruit enough staff so workloads are double what they should be. I don't mind it really, there's something satisfying about working like a bat out of hell all day then realising it's hometime before you know it.

hammeringinmyhead · 14/02/2019 21:18

Ok. Should have been a nice afternoon session at Baby Gym and a coffee afterwards but DS started the class grumpy, fed, threw up all over me, then passed out in his car seat for an hour. By 5pm he was overtired but refusing to nap so we put him in the bath to stop the screaming. I ended up eating dinner with one hand while he fed to sleep. H and I are now in the bedroom being Very Quiet while he sleeps in the cot.

Lolimax · 14/02/2019 21:21

Mine was really 2 halves. I worked in a hospital I've never done a shift in before and wasn't impressed with the level of care in the ward. I did question it but it's 'how they do things here'. I won't be going back.
Only an early shift so home for a kip then spent time with DH.

LJdorothy · 14/02/2019 21:36

funinthesun...the teacher would not for a second have expected your child to leave the school playground and I think you should be having a serious word with him about the fact he did. He should have come straight back into school as soon as he realised you weren't there and at 7 and unless he has special needs you haven't mentioned, he really should know that by now.

GrowThroughWhatYouGoThrough · 14/02/2019 21:47

Rubbish! I moved a wardrobe which I hade hidden a xylophone on top and it dropped on my head 😫

EvaHarknessRose · 14/02/2019 22:06

OK thanks, I was kind of on form at work today, dc was helpful about not being able to get a lift because I worked late. Now I’m tired but we all have next week off so all good. How about you?

MissTyne · 14/02/2019 22:10

Fairly shit, 11 hour working shift with only 15 mins break. I’m absolutely knackered... & Now I’ve got an hours worth of bus ride home. Yay me

KHTeach · 14/02/2019 22:54

Great morning with my class but a terrible afternoon. A boy told me to fuck off

tor8181 · 14/02/2019 23:10

well the boys didnt sleep last night which is our normal life

14 y old didnt sleep at all and its 3 nights in a row now(normal for him)so dad and him went about their day(gym and shopping in town)while we stayed in bed

the 8 y old didnt go till 7.55am(normal for him is 6am-9am) and we got up at 11am so only had 3 hours,then we went to a home ed group till 4pm,camr home ready to go to a disco by 5.30pm at one of his disability groups,that finished at half 7 then came back home

we have now all night in front of us as boys will be up all night again but we usually do our crafts/education in the evenings and night

LesserofTwoWeevils · 14/02/2019 23:24

Pretty awful but thanks for asking.
On the edge of tears most of the day because Valentine's Day has almost always been awful and I'll probably never get another valentine. Even my DCs are too old to wish me a happy V Day now, let alone make me cards like they used to. I know it's silly but it's the symbolism that's getting to me.

I'd hoped to go to a panel discussion this evening in case I ran into a couple of people I knew and could talk to briefly, but chickened out and am home facing yet another evening alone.

funinthesun19 · 14/02/2019 23:24

and I think you should be having a serious word with him about the fact he did.

No shit!! Hmm

And as a matter of fact he’s been through cahms but was given a no diagnosis. I still think there are some special needs there though.My younger ds has ASD so I know what I’m talking about.

The teacher shouldn’t have sent him back out and I firmly believe that. Special needs or not.

MissLanesAmericanCousin · 14/02/2019 23:27

Nice, relaxing. Listening to music with DH. Had a great breakfast in bed. Getting ready to go out to dinner. Smile

JaceLancs · 14/02/2019 23:28

Awful
Stressed at work
Spent rest of day in hospital with DM who was rushed in today n I’m expecting the worst
DF is in nursing home following stroke
DM is upset he wouldn’t get his valentine card from her and will they get to celebrate their diamond wedding (currently on 59 years married)

Deerstalker · 14/02/2019 23:29

Crap day. Loveless marriage and feeling the strain.

sweetpeach91 · 14/02/2019 23:31

Really good thanks :)
Had a next voucher to spend from my boyfriends mum so we went and had a walk around to try and spend it- he was so good bless him whilst I tried about 50 pairs of shoes on! He kept trying to show me things he thought I'd like!
Ended up with a nice mini leather skirt.

We cooked some dinner then just watched a film, now it's time for bedWink just waiting for him to finish his shower...

Nothininmenoggin · 15/02/2019 00:52
