    Make sure there’s some actual food and drink in amongst chores .....
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    I can't do 2 weeks worth of work and write a decent TMA in 4 and a half days. I hate my head at times, everyone else is managing

    It’s not a competition, love. And you are doing this while being a career for your mum, going through a really tough time with J and trying to manage several health conditions. You’re doing brilliantly

    Today has been a huge wobble too so I'm amazed I got anything done. When she picked the children up this morning she asked him if he wanted to go with them and he said no because he didn't want to upset me even though he wanted to go for the children. I feel guilty and relieved at the same time. Of course, me being me told him if still doing family stuff would help his mood then I would deal with it but I don't want to have to deal with it. I don't want to have to be an adult about this. School things and birthdays and things like that is one thing but regular days out at this stage? When I'm still a secret and the children are still adjusting? I don't think that is fair on anyone.

    No it's not fair on you, it's not fair on the children either - how are they meant to adjust when things like this keep popping up? I really think they need to get something sorted. It's good that they can exchange the children without a huge row, but really? Special family time? Now? Definitely not..

    ^^^wss and, you know what? It’s ok for you not to be ok with it, and it’s ok if J chooses not to do this for your sake - how you feel about it all should be just as important
