Screw up Tuesday

OOPS

I think my biggest screw up is forgetting my screw ups for the week.

I have some, but I can’t think of them.

But I have an excuse.. lol.

Well, not really.

On a bit of a serious note, another screw up is allowing a situation in my life to take priority when it doesn’t belong there.

My family comes first.

No, strike that.

My self care comes first.

Widdle Shamrock needs to look after WIddle Shamrock, so she can be the best wife and mother she can be.

When I am being the best wife and mother I can be, I can put my family first.

I have slowly allowed the issues of a manipulative, conniving, abusive, broken, woman to impose on my life too much.

So tomorrow I take a step back.

I will not answer the phone.

I will enjoy the time with my scrummy kids.

And I will not think about the abusive woman or the child that needs removing from her care.

I have done all that I can do.

It is time for others to step up to the plate and play their part.

  7. Decisions like that are hard, but necessary. Yourself comes first.

  8. Sending you strength vibes to stick with the decision that you have made. And it sounds like a wise one too. You know the order of your priorities, sometimes the hardest thing to do though is look after ourselves first.
