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.

No as sis gone to see her fuckwit was dumped now reinstated boyfriend. Can't tell Dad as it'll depress him further. Mum was so happy when he was dumped.

So just me and Dad tonight. He hopes to sleep. Said when he wakes in night he wants to talk more than the tea. Trouble is its always 3am.

Mums nice friend coming tomorrow with glasses and to assess tea making area as she's on tea duty on funeral day.

My phone is non stop with funeral stuff....

I have altered the Rota in the kitchen at our restaurant so on Monday for Jenny's Mum I will be running the pizza section and finishing the evening with a glass of prosecco with my GM and Tuesday for Elenium's Mum well the boys and I are out playing golf and then for dinner to celebrate what would have been Jill's 48th birthday so red on the course and red in the eaterie and another glass of fizz to toast these two special ladies whom I never met but through their daughters in some small part shared their story . A toast to all of our little counselling group will be had
