Hi @Shaz51, thanks for asking...
Had a meltdown this morning, have been putting in 12 hour days with my Mum, first in hospital and then at home. Just self imploded with worry and all the myriad details I am trying to keep juggling in the air to help her. She called (I was int he driveway in the car just ready to drive to her place) and said don't come today I'm fine and I felt SO relieved, then SO guilty that I felt relieved. Anyways held it together while on the phone with her, then just sat in the car with my dog and cried and cried. Came inside took a pill, watched tv then put myself to bed for a few hours. I'm exhausted on one level but just need to keep it all together for her, I have suddenly become a carer and the responsible person. OMG. Anyways that is life and I will endure. Love my Mum.
What's for feast tonight... nothing exciting! I cooked off extra last night so... Reheated veggie sausages, veggies and gravy for me for tea - Partner having reheated sausage on a roll (like a hotdog, their favourite :-). Easy peasy tea. Hope everyone has a good weekend. xx
