Thanks everyone for letting me rant
Unfortunately DHs work has changed the date again.. So even though I'd told myself "screw it, I'm going down South anyway!" I can't now as it's too close to DHs brothers wedding, so I'd be going down and back 3 times in 3 weeks! (DHs stupid arse of a brother is having a civil ceremony with about 20 people, on a FRIDAY (11/11/11 nonetheless.. ugh talk about disrespectful, making their own giant poppy buttonholes, not even a collection or anything), paying over the odds for that and a dinner, just so it looks all "special" (lol, nope) and expensive - with both sets of parents footing the bill - and them having a reception a week later at a social club in another county!! Wtf?? So we've got to travel 200 miles each way, two weekends in a row

It will totally disrupt LOs routine. Even if I did go down alone when DH is away, I wouldn't be getting "help" from family as such and definitely wouldn't get any sort of break (I'd be staying with my Nanny too), but at least I'd have some company I suppose.. Although they drive me mad at times, and I probably wouldn't tell the evil Nanna I was down there
Sooo yeah. I'm sorta stuck now

Just hoping LO is a bit more settled for when I'm left on my own, poor little thing is just screaming a lot at the moment

A combination of WW12, reflux, and teething it would seem..
