7:15 pmGetting ready to put the kids to bed which is always the hardest part of the day.  My reality was that he never helped with any of this so it has never been easy.I made it through the day pretty well today for the first time since they told me.   I ate three meals which is a huge improvement for me.  I cooked a good meal for the kids two nights in a row which is another improvement.I held my temper and my patience today a huge plus.  I even did puzzles with the kids which is another improvement.  I know that they won't all be like this but I will take the good days as they come.
