Positives, as promised: Yesterday I cooked an actual meal for me and D from scratch when I got home from work (rather than heating up leftovers), stayed cool when she was cranky (hungry, probably), and clamoring for my attention, and we ended up having a great dinner together! . Then, I went to bed before 11:00. For maybe the 2nd time in the last 6 months. That is a HUGE accomplishment!!
Beautiful sunny day. Lots to feel blessed about.
Thanks for all the great words of support. I am so appreciative that this forum exists.
