The day has been long and frustrating. First, I want to share some good news. I really want to refocus on finding the silver lining in each day. Gavin did his own IVIG Infusion today for the first time in a long time. His infusion went off without a hitch and without any leaking. Gavin …

#Depression is absolutely kicking my ass
I had a nice chat with my Dad this afternoon. I called to see how he was doing because he’s been sick. He’s sorta feeling better but now my Mom is sick. We only spent a few minutes on the phone but I sorta unloaded a bit and it was something I really needed to …

The struggle is real
In the good news department, everyone slept in their own beds, and did so through the night. That means I actually slept pretty well myself. Progress is progress and this is progress. I have to get to the grocery store today but aside from that, I don’t think there’s much going on. Elliott will return …

I feel pretty f*cking accomplished tonight

To survive right now, I have to take on only what is absolutely necessary and let go of whatever I can. I’ve been talking …

Today just got more complicated
So I forgot to share this little tidbit of information. School has been cancled for at least today because of so many kids being out sick. It would make sense that if it’s that bad, they include Friday as well but whatever. I’m not sure what’s going around but if it’s that bad, I may …

Are Dad’s going through #divorce supposed to admit this?
I’m feeling incredibly overwhelmed and frustrated tonight. The boys have been at each other’s throats all day and there were a few times where I was very close to reaching the end of my rope. Emmett is incredibly impulsive right now and it’s difficult to manage that behavior at the moment. Elliott has a very, …
