Limbowife, I know how hard it is. When I got my ILYBNILWY speech, I could not believe it. It took me a couple of weeks to fully process it and realize how serious it was. My H said the same thing that he was not happy for a couple of years. He gave me some specific that he didn’t like in our R, and some of them totally didn’t make sense to me.
My H was also doing everything in the house as far as fixing, mowing, checking on things working properly. Good thing that I’ve learnt some of this things over the years, since he was traveling for work in the summer and fall. So, I also do the mowing and take my car for maintenance among other things. I’m lucky to have my son to help with other stuff around the house.
I can understand your daughter being angry with her Dad. I don’t have this kind of experience, so I cannot give you a solid advice on this. Hopefully some veterans on this board with chime in. Your daughter is old enough to understand what is at stake for you though. Can you talk to her?
