I had a bad day. poor me!
What went wrong:
1. I went to the dentist.(never good)
2.A work colleague went home sick and started to cry in front of me that she "had no support here". I don't know what to do and am at an absolute loss on this, but feel that she is blaming me for this in some way. I am absolutely dreading going in tomorrow as I have no idea what form she will be in and how to cope with her, HELP!
3. I parted with my engagement ring and am not wearing it for the first time since I got it, its in the jewellers getting resized and I will have it back on Thursday but since I left it in nothing has gone right for me.
4. I got a facial but the mask started tingling and the beauty therapist wasn't there so when she came back in I asked her if it should and she said no and panicked a bit. I thought I was going to have a big bad allergic reaction but she later found out that the tingling was normal, not before scaring me badly first
5. P left on a business trip til Thursday night and I am missing him
6. I realised 5 minutes from home on the bus at 8.15 pm that my keys were in my gymbag, which was at work so I had to stay on the bus and go back to work to collect them and get another bus home, I lost an hour of my life, I was SOOO MAD
7. We only got one RSVP in the post today, every other day there's been at least three and there are still 50 something outstanding, but the closing date is Friday 2nd.
OK if things go well tomorrow I promise to post good and nice stuff. Am really, really dreading going in though 
Send me good wishes or wallow with me please!
Thanks,
S.

Ahh Sinead. We have all had days like you have. Not exactly the same stuff but I know how you feel. Just chalk it up to one of those days. Tomorrow will be much better for you! As for the wedding stuff, it sucks to have outstanding stuff. Sometimes people are slackers. You can't control that. But whatever you do, don't let it put a damper on your wedding. Just remember that day is for you and P, and the people that are there are the ones who truly care about your union. And Padhraig will be back soon and I am sure he misses you as well!!

Thanks Tommy, I'm not upset about the RSVPs really but if there had been more of them they could have brightened my day if you know what I mean and I was banking on them too much!
There are lots of wedding jobs that we are both studiously avoiding doing which is just pure silly but that's just the way we are at the moment.
Thanks so much for responding, I can go to bed feeling better now, (even if I am all on my own, sob)

Sinead, you're never on your own! You always have your IBS family here on the boards.  Get some sleep, it is late in Ireland, almost 12:30. Rest up and wake up tomorrow thinking that you're going to have a great day! Good night!!

I KNOW I KNOW! The last thing P said to me when I was talking to him earlier was "don't stay up too late on the internet" and I said "I have no intention of doing that!" 
Night night

I hate being parted from my engagement ring too. When I lost the original centre stone I bawled for HOURS. 
Good luck at work.

Thanks Ashley,am definitely in better form today.
About the RSVPs, just don't mention it, I will confess at a later stage but there is "around" 200 invited. We both have big Irish families, and tons of friends.
We both wanted a big party and that sounds just like what we are going to get!

I'm sorry for the bad day, sweetie. I sure hope today is going better for you. Please let us know how your co-worker is. Try not to be too upset about it until you know if she really is upset at you, maybe she was just having a bad day too? Hugs!!

Cailin, I had one of those days last week when everything seemed to be going wrong! I just started crying. It's funny how once we get in that mindset it seems to make more bad things happen. I just hope tomorrow is better for you! I am certainly sending you good wishes for a happier day!

What a sucky stream of bad luck!! I agree it is somehow tied in to the temporary loss of your ring. And of course the loss of Natalie and meee. No doubt things will turn around when your perfectly re-sized ring comes back. Until then I suggest you keep your eyes open for any more bad luck coming your way, and don't get into any hot air balloons or anything.
Stuff has been rolling off my back lately, and I'm thinking this is probably the best vacation I've ever had in my life. Next time we'll do it when you have some time off too. Just keep meditating on how great your honeymoon will be. I hate crying women at work too. You don't need the aggravation right now with so much stuff on your plate!
I've also been being plagued by evil women-- calls from my neighbor (the one whose demented mother I elder-sat). She never leaves any messages, just hangs up. It's like having, I dunno, Death call or something. I have been completely emersing myself in Father Ted, second season, to cope. Great therapy!
You're doing the best you can. Keep that focus, and don't let the crap get to you. You're doing great, and you so don't deserve all these random bad things!! Keep on keeping on, and post back here when you get the chance!

Thanks Michele. Coworker is back in today, I had a chat with her and offered to help out, she feels unsupported, but not so much by me as by the other people on the team who she manages and wants to delegate to. She was defo having a bad day too.

Why didn't I think of that!!!
Am avoiding walking under ladders and chasing black cats today!
Glad that you enjoyed your break so much, I really need mine, only five and a bit weeks til the honeymoon now, thankfully.
I agree that Father Ted is great therapy. I'm off to the gym to work off my aggression and then meeting a friend for a bite to eat.
None of the things were really bad, just all made me feel sorry for myself, I'm pretty much over it
Thanks everyone, I will post an update on the whole lot later

Updates on my yucky day post, have my ring back so am in better form and looking on the bright side today! Thanks everyone for your kind words
1. I went to the dentist.(never good)
OK so I didn't actually have to get any fillings or anything, turns out I just have an exposed root that is causing sentivitity and its fixable
2.A work colleague went home sick and started to cry in front of me that she "had no support here". I don't know what to do and am at an absolute loss on this, but feel that she is blaming me for this in some way. I am absolutely dreading going in tomorrow as I have no idea what form she will be in and how to cope with her, HELP!
I spoke to her the next day and offered to help however I could. She is very stressed but much of it is being caused by herself and she will not see this. At least I have spoken to her about it now and I suppose that means really that my conscience is clear
3. I parted with my engagement ring and am not wearing it for the first time since I got it, its in the jewellers getting resized and I will have it back on Thursday but since I left it in nothing has gone right for me.
I collected it at lunchtime and its perfect, and all nice and shiny because they cleaned it
4. I got a facial but the mask started tingling and the beauty therapist wasn't there so when she came back in I asked her if it should and she said no and panicked a bit. I thought I was going to have a big bad allergic reaction but she later found out that the tingling was normal, not before scaring me badly first
at least I had a facial!
5. P left on a business trip til Thursday night and I am missing him He's back
6. I realised 5 minutes from home on the bus at 8.15 pm that my keys were in my gymbag, which was at work so I had to stay on the bus and go back to work to collect them and get another bus home, I lost an hour of my life, I was SOOO MAD This hasn't changed I am still mad even thinking about this! However I have been EXTRA careful with my keys since
7. We only got one RSVP in the post today, every other day there's been at least three and there are still 50 something outstanding, but the closing date is Friday 2nd.
We also got 2 by email that night, they really are slowing up now but I need to manage my own expectations!
