My neighbor overheard me crying outside to my mum today because I’m struggling right now. I’ve been let off from my main job, have to move house in less than two weeks, and I genuinely had a moment of feeling helpless and sorry for myself.
I had shoulder surgery which ended up being more severe than it was expected to be. Two days later heading home, we got stuck in traffic on the way to the airport so my partner and I weren’t able to be seated together, only across the aisle from each other.

One of my FB friends had on a Minnie Mouse mask. I told her how much I loved it as I love Minnie Mouse and my nickname is Mini.
