Ok, I give in.

I have Non-Specific Worry Syndrome.

However hard I poke at any one of the many little worries, it isn't a big deal (not even Mum, since the prognosis is so good). But the combination of them all - well, that's scary.

I can deal with one active thing, and one waiting, at the moment. The active thing is going home & to Kent for a friend's wedding this weekend (though I don't know what to wear yet). The waiting thing is the OU assignment due in on 3 June.

Except there's also the cancer Thing, the anniversary of crappiness Thing, the Cambridge next weekend Thing, the going back to work Thing, the total lack of money Thing... A couple of months ago, I was pootling along nicely from one Thing to the next - and now it's all become overwhelming. I know I don't have to worry about them all at once (and some of them shouldn't be worrying at all), but knowing they're there and Looming at me is sending me towards panic ctations.

Wibble.

the cambridge thing will be fun, you well get to see lots of people you like, have nice food and wine and wander round a fair full of hippys and pretty things

Lots of little things can more overwhelming than one big thing but all you can do it try and get on with it and hope it will all turn out well in the end

hope you are good

Ah but, you see, it'll be 2 consecutive weekends away. There'll be 10 hours of driving. My "pretty things" tend to be corsets, which aren't very hippy and which I can't afford any more of. And I'm scared of having a meltdown in public.

There are lots of other pretty things which may be more suitable in cambridge as oppose to at the fair, There is a very nice jewelery stall on cambridge market on the sunday where I bought the necklaces I got Nicola for her birthday

the driving and the two consecutive weekends away unfortunately I can do nothing about I keep trying to convince rms to invent site to site transportation but he says its impossible so you can blame him for that

the meltdown all I can try and do is reassure you, most of the people coming are nice and laid back so you will probably be fine but if not our house is less than 5 minutes from where most of the festivities are so if you need some more alone time it won't be difficult to get
