Considering the situation going on in Ukraine and having sat for over an hour, counselling an impacted student today, I feel somewhat embarrassed to be complaining, so I'll couch it as a #firstworldproblem
Daughter's belated birthday party planned for tomorrow, 20-odd kids coming. Party bags done. Sis in law made mega cake. Food bought. Ball pool and community hall hired. Bish, bash, bosh. Done.
But no. She's ill. Puking ill. No party tomorrow. Everything cancelled. Tons of phonecalls to other parents etc. Urgh.
So, that's my first world problem today. Tomorrow's might be "we are also puking"
Any more to add to today?! |

Oh no!! The poor wee soul !
I have a really sore blister on my finger, so I know just how hard life can be. Send thoughts and prayers please. |

"Well at least you have a big cake and some party bags!!
"
We have a kid who is puking at the very sight of food. Mr KC doesn't like cake (yes, he IS weird). Our son has gone into self imposed isolation at his girlfriend's house. That leaves.......me. To eat a cake designed for 20-odd people. If I'm not now, I will be after all that
I'm also many, many kilos too heavy already |

I hope she feels better soon. Not liking cake isn't a bad thing.
My first world problem is truly shocking. The fingerprint ID has disappeared off my phone and I have to type my passcode in. |
