Spent time with the kids today, which was easily the best part of the day.
My daughter is still very unwell, and I’m still trying to understand what the right path forward looks like.
At the moment it’s really just about taking things as they come, dealing with what’s in front of us without trying to force answers too quickly.
There are moments where I struggle with the things she says.
I don’t always have the patience for it, and at times it’s hard not to feel like things are getting worse rather than better.
It’s a difficult thing to sit with, especially when you’re trying to stay steady for everyone else around you.
I bought a shirt today, something simple, but those small normal things do help break up the intensity of everything else going on.
I also started getting quotes for roof repairs, and they’re absolutely ridiculous.
The numbers genuinely shocked me.
I’ll need to see what the other quotes come in at before making any decisions, because right now I don’t even know where that kind of money would come from.
For now, it’s just about gathering information and not rushing into anything.
Today was really about just getting through what needed to be done and holding things together as best as I could.
