I think I hit rock bottom yesterday, and I can already feel that things are beginning to turn the corner.
Yesterday afternoon I was at my wits end. The kids (at home, both sick) were driving me and each other barmy. I very nearly curled into a heap and cried.
Then once I got them to bed at night, I came on here and started blogging again. I reread all my past blogs and managed to get some perspective on everything. I could feel a small amount of the old zest for life and enthusiasm coming back.
Midway through last nights post my hubby came home - 9.30 - not bad compared to previous efforts. I finished the post and went down to chat to him, and we had our most friendly chat (and cuddle) in a long time.
After a couple of months of feeling alone in the wilderness this was a real relief. It reminded me that at the base of everything I have got a family set up that's firm as a rock, for which I'm truly grateful.
I got up with a new spring in my step this morning and went back to the gym. Suddenly I feel renewed.
