Just one more thing and my head will f****** explode

[alexsmum]

as some of you know from my previous posts, my dad is very ill and has been in hospital in majorca for the past week.This has meant lots of stress for me and flights over there etc.
Yesterday, lack of time made me put my new bravissimo bra in the washing machine rather than handwashing it.It melted.
This morning I discovered that my boiler is leaking AGAIN-another ongoing problem.this is the third time in 4 months that it has happened.i now have to wait in for british gas rather than go shopping for the sandals that my kids need for their holiday in 2weeks.
to top it all off a bird has just flown into the bedroom window and dropped to the ground injured.
we have phoned the rspca and dh is as i write taking it to the vet on their instructions.
I'm sure that god has got his jeremy beadle head this week' just watch as alexsmum thinks that things can't possibly get any worse...!'

I know exactly how you feel. Im soooo stressed atm, am on the verge of tears constantly. Had an eptopic pg about 6 weeks ago, 3 grandparents ill in hospital, relationship probs, kids fussing.... No advice, just wanted you to know you wernt alone and that someone had read your post.

(ps - I did that with a bravissamo bra too grrr)

oh tamba sounds like you are having a really tough time!

and what is it with the bras? i only put it on a 40 degree wash abd it's gone all black on the wires and the fabric is all ripped and burnt.bizzarre!

They arnt cheap bras either! It pulled all the wire out of mine too [grumpy emotion]

Are you able to go out for a coffee on your own when dh gets back? or just for a walk? I sometimes hide in the bedroom and read a book when im really stressed.

the gas guy has turned up.
lets see what the excuse is this time.
wondering about the bird too-i wonder what the vet is doing ?

Alexsmum: re bras, at least you put yours in the washing machine (I've never hand-washed a bra in my life).

I put one in the warming oven of the aga once when I wanted it to dry quickly.

When I opened the door later, I found a burnt bra.

ok....the gas man has just walked mud up my cream stair carpet.....
(head starts to fizz dangerously..)

dh has come in from the vet now.vet took it away and that's it.
i hope they make it better and don't just put it to sleep
