I'm so sorry to have a moan like this but I'm having an awful year. Since my absolutely dreadful Christmas things have gone downhill. Most weeks one of us, if not all of us, have been ill - with colds, coughs, stomach bugs, ear infections and myself having an abscess in my breast, twice! My dad has to go in for a heart bypass and I'm over 600 miles away without a chance of getting to see him. He's 76. And to top it all I've now lost two of my cats; one died during the night. She was in the kitchen when I came in in the morning. My other cat passed away on Sunday. I am absolutely gutted as this has happened within three weeks and they meant the world to me. At the moment we are completely snowed in, my darling little Tim has had to be put in a freezer in the shed as the nearest pet crematorium is over an hour away (and the roads are impassable) and we rent so he can't be buried in the garden, and both my boys and myself are suffering from awful head colds that have lasted for around four weeks now. At least my husband hasn't got man flu yet; I'm just waiting for this to happen!
I would say it can't get worse, but know from experience it can!
Sorry to moan like this but am really feeling down and fed up at the mo.

I'm really sorry to see that you're having such an awful time at present. It happens, and when it does it all seems to do so at the same time or with one thing after another. I'm sure that it will change and improve soon. Clearly the continuing bad weather hasn't helped and when that ends, as it will, then that will undoubtedly help.
There's no need to be sorry for having a moan here as you've every right to...I know that I would! I'm also not surprised that you're feeling down and fed up.
I can but sympathise as I know what it's like to go through a period like this. Take care xx
