Waking up very tired today as I was chatting with my eldest for a long time and couldn’t sleep for ages after he went to bed. Am running on about 3 hours of sleep.

Despite this, I woke up determined and have actually, potentially, found a solution to my financial predicament which I need under control to be able to move forward with my divorce. I have done my calculations and I will also be able to save some each month too. Hinges on one thing so I am keeping my fingers (and toes) crossed.. I will also still be able to have some kind of social life (it’s very limited anyway as I am a parent and have other responsibilities).

My ability to feel down and still look for solutions has made me realise that anything is possible. There is always something we can do. Some details may have to alter, like I won’t be able to move forward with my plan just yet, but it doesn’t stop it.

Not being able to move forward with the legalities does not stop me having the difficult conversation though and becoming officially separated though. Strides can be smaller steps as long as we are still heading towards our ultimate goal.
