Hey @Sunnyside226 ,
I hope you don't mind me making this thread for you.
I just wanted you to know that the whole forums community is here to support you through this challenging time.
Please look after yourself. I recognise it's hard to look after three small children on your own.

Well - where do I start @Sunnyside226 ...
Took me an hour to change my car tyre this morning because the nuts were too tight. A wrench and many, many hammer strikes later - nuts finally loosened but my back was not good afterwards. Had a rest and feeling better this afternoon - so spent some time in the garage and cutting timber for my laundry wall. I had to have the hot water cyclinder replaced a couple of days ago - good thing my brother in law is a plumber 👍Had to dismantle the cupboard to get the old cyclinder out and the new one in. Also had to frame out part of the wall and put new plaster in ...framing done, plastering to go.

Start small @Sunnyside226 We often get ourselves overwhelmed with the big things and that makes us feel worse. Have you eaten today? Maybe make a cuppa. I don't drink tea or coffee and just presuming you do.

Soak in the energy of the river @Sunnyside226 There is something so peaceful and beautiful about water.
Is there a way you can mend the relationship with your siblings? I know you probably have already tried so please ignore that if that is the case.
I know this is not much consulation but we, here, appreciate you 🦋🥰
