    Feel like a...

    Bit of a barstool today. Other week my dad rang me and told me he'd fell out with my eldest sister and she wouldn't watch the dog whilst he and my mother went on holiday.

    I reluctantly agreed to do it if he didn't patch things up with sister. I told Laura and she wasn't best pleased with her being nearly seven months pregnant and being left at home on her own in a new house.

    Since then I've had a message from my G.P asking me to book an appointment for my medication review and annual m.o.t.

    They've fit me in for blood test and blood pressure with nurse next week whilst I'm off which is o.k but appointment with Doctor I've had to work round work commitments and that is Monday 5th evening clinic.

    You've guessed it. When my parents are away.

    My Dad got in touch this morning telling me my sister still isn't speaking to him and that I'd definitely be the one watching the dog. I then had to tell him that I've got a Doctors appointment and can't dog sit and I need to go because my medication expiry is the 18th August.

    He text me back threatening to cancel his holiday. Guilt trip or what?

    Hi Ponte, tell him this time ok you will sort the dog out but that's it not again, what's more important the dog or your life. Good luck!

    Yr old man will have to go to a kennels then, does sound a bit guilt trippesque but he might just be pannicking a bit, can't you ask Yr sister to swallow her pride a bit seen as you got the doctors an that?
