I am vacillating between feeling like I shouldn't try to stand in the way of the D and doing everything possible to get my M back on track, despite the apparently low odds.

I've had around 6 months to come to terms with how things are and input from family remains that I am best to leave it as it'll be better for me. But they didn't tell me (or didn't exist) when the R was originally forming to not go ahead so how can I rely on them, although they have seen the toll the R has had on me over the 24 years...?

Remaining peaceful is really hard work when Mr Fix It keeps on saying "do something" into my ear. What that something is I don't know...

- Consult your plan, not your feelings
- If you haven't set goals, how can you expect to achieve anything?
