I have just had (or, I should say, AM HAVING) the most awful week.
On Monday, my car failed the MOT and I had to fork out £200 + to get it through. Then I had to pay £99 to tax it (could only afford to do it for 6 months because of the MOT cost).
Later in the day my dog was unwell so I took it to the vet and that cost me £38.00
On Tuesday, the dog was still not well so went back to the vet and that cost £5.00
Today I was at the vets again and left behind £240!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now the dog is home but still suffering the effects of the anaesthetic. But because she has been starved since yesterday lunch time she is ravenous. An appetite is good - only problem is that the reason we needed the vet is that she had a "blocked rectum" (the term used by them, not me) so the operation involved an "clearance". Now anyone who has ever enjoyed the joys of an enema can begin to catch my drift .............. hungry dog (which I was advised to feed by vet), still under effects of anaesthetic, just undergone doggy equivalent of a colonic irrigation and you get my picture ..................................
So when I say 'my life is s*** I mean it in more ways than one!!!!!
And to cap it all my husband who was at work all day came in and went straight back out for a drink with his friend. 'Bitter and twisted' doesn't begin to describe my psyche at this moment in time.
BUT ............................
I have stuck to my diet and have not acted on my unbelievable levels of stress. I must say I am drinking a lot of coffee but even that is decaf.
Do CD give out medals for the "Dieting Through A Crisis" because if they do I want to nominate ME!!
