I really have turned into the flakiest person I know.
I don't mean I am running whimsically through poppy fields or reclining my perfectly pale body in a bath while seductively eating a chocolate bar.
No I mean I am a crap friend.
When pregnant I'm sure everyone reads the single girls column about how rubbish her baby friends are, all bailing through lack of a sitter; we all shake our heads and vow not to be that way.
You know, there are times when little girl is poorly or refusing to go to her father's and have no choice.
But, just as often these days it is all down to me. The pressure of events in my diary feels like pain not pleasure and I just want to hide from the world and do nothing.
And I mean NOTHING. I have discovered I have an amazing capacity for this, and on days when I can do nothing I find myself not even answering the phone or replying to texts.
Sometimes on these days I do manage to connect to a virtual world via Twitter, no one expects anything from me there.
So basically, on a good day I can be a good friend, and I am always thinking of other people, I just don't manage to let them know.
If I've let you down lately, I'm sorry. It's not personal and I working on being less of a flake and more of a Marathon (snickers doesn't really work there!)

Since I can't get through everything I am 'mean't' to, friends have gone much lower on the list. How rubbish is that? I really, really am going to sort it. But doing NOTHING definitely feels good once in a while!
