Having a bad day

Sorry but I'm having a bad day and I just need to let it out. I woke up feeling like I've had no sleep and really down. Mum's been bad this week - a lot of pain and, I think, sliding into depression - so I'm in overdrive on worrying about her. My sister is with her today so I don't need to go round to see mum although I probably will drop round later. I thought I would throw myself into cleaning the house so make myself busy and then I'd start to feel better. My fatal mistake was asking my 18 year old daughter to help. She had a major strop. I tried to keep calm as I realise that she is worrying about my mum too but it was hard. I tried to talk to her but she just got worse and worse so I gave up. Then my husband made sarcastic comments about it all - again he is worrying and his mum is also not well - so I am still trying to keep a lid on it. But I feel even worse now. I'm now sitting on the sofa in my pyjama's watching old episodes of Grey's Anatomy without the will to do anything else. I just keep crying and feel so very very sad.

It's so much to do isn't it?

I'll try to find insurance details today.

Mums friends all cry. Yesterday I called one who said when her own sister was horrible to her my Mum said she would be her sister.

I have two to write to as no phone no.

Jenny,

You do need to notify insurance companies. I've just done mum's.

Hope you managed to get a little sleep.

I don't know specifically about property insurance but I did have to notify all insurance companies as everything was in my mums name. Contents insurance on the house had to be moved over into my dads name.

Happy to offer any support I can xx
