Make or break

I've had an intense week so far. In an already busy schedule a failed MOT, worn down locking nut key, no replacement nut available, the discs needing replaced aswell as the breakpads since I had to drive around getting parts to get the breaks fixed in the first place, the clutch being worn down, really got me overwhelmed.

I wanted this week to be about spending time with family, since my brother is leaving for his travels today. My dad and stepmum were over from Sweden Monday to Wednesday so I wanted to have as much time as possible with them. My brother released his first album this week so I wanted to be there to help as much as I could and be supportive.

But I think I've managed pretty well to be honest. I've tried to organise things so I could fit everything in that had to be done. I've prioritised family over any classes Lance usually goes to. My husband did all the phoning around and booking the car in and my brother in law has been a huge help trying to figure out this clutch carry on.

So looking back at it now I'm proud of myself for how I handled it all. Sure there was moments of distress and anger when things didn't go to plan. I've been going through a whole list of emotions this week and they are all validated and natural. However it's the ability to move on from them that has surprised me the most. Being able to see the bigger picture, prioritise and let go is an enormous thing for me and ask for help!

It's just been one of those weeks that can make or break you. I'm sure everyone has them.
