Actually, strictly speaking, that’s not entirely true. Just because The Smalls are back at school and I finally have 30 seconds to do stuff, doesn’t mean everything is fine again.
Of course not.
Whilst I do know I still have some things I really need to sort out, it’s almost surreal to be in a place where I can actually think about the things I need to try and fix.
The Smalls are back at school. I have time to get on with work. I’m starting to be a human being again.
Unfortunately, that bastard Elephant is still in the corner. Now just to work out what the hell to do with it.

Starting to feel human again is a start. I know it's been a tough time but hang in there. x
Enjoy the time on your hands – and thank God for school/nursery.
Maybe you should give that elephant a name and then we can tell it to feck off.
"Geoffrey, your time is up, now feck off"
You can do it mate. Offer the elephant some peanuts and take one step at a time x
Now that you're back to reality, it's back to the most lazy thing to do in the morning, the waking up and fix the kids stuff. Oh my, I now imagine how my sister feels.
I am a big fan of Laura's solution
Isn't it nice to have a moment to think though? Or take a GD nap?
