feeling very sorry for myself and yet another reason I hate being a lone parent.
have had a throat infection for 2 weeks now, last week was so bad I didn't even mn for a few days! im on mn nearly every night.was coughing my lungs out. and walls so thin neighbours complained ffs. I wasn't coughing on purpose. their revenge? (they are so lovely) was to bang their doors and shout even more than usual, so not able to rest anyway.
yet 2 forms came in for me to fill in-updating disability cand carers benefit plus income support and they've been a nightmare to fill I. my heads not on me.
and gp doesn't do house calls so had to drag myself out to get antibiotics.
on top of my other physical disabilities and caring for disabled DC on my own, I haven't been able to sleep it off/rest etc etc.
think the absolute worst is over but now its developed into the flu!how much bloody snot can one nose produce ffs?
had to go out this morn as no one to do it for me (beenhousebound 2 weeks and poor old DC only fresh air is the garden) as I HAD to get some food in plus go to the bank to make sure I had enough to pay the bills and stuff . was so groggy yet had to drive because of my limited mobility, and I fainted in the bank!
was sooooooooooo embarrassing. when I came round, they were very nice, gave me a cuppa and said I should be at home in bed. you think?
managed to drive home on autopilot and just heated some soup for DCV and collapsed on the couch.
my nose is running like Niagara falls (im in bed on a laptop here) and my fecking neighbours and their noise are driving me up the wall.
and no one to help.
thankfully as DCs older she can manage to make herself a sandwich at least and that's what shes been doing.
im so having a pity party.
and then I had a text froma friend saying she wasn't well and her husband made her go to bed, took the day off work, looked after the dcs and made the food and tidied up and took her cuppas in bed........
.
sorry. its long and pathetic.really need a hug!
