It's a long way to the shops if you want a sausage roll...

Sometimes I just want to drive away - far away - away from all the drama and away from all the problems in this household - I just want to get away.

But I know that I would always come back - after a little while, after some time to stop and take a breath.

Everything in this household is such a struggle; a painful journey. Even the simplest of tasks are turned into the hardest of things because of conflict or clashes or just anything.
Certain things in life just shouldnt be this hard.

But no matter how bad things get, we always forgive and move on.

The past few days have been the worst out of all of them - everyone is short tempered towards everyone else and everything has become so stressful. It's an unhealthy environment and I just feel like I'm being suffocated. When I make a mistake or do something wrong suddenly it's like World War Three has begun.

But I know that there are people who have it far worse than I do.

So I'm going to smile, keep moving forward and be thankful. Thankful for what I have. I am lucky because I have a family and friends who love and support me and a wonderful boyfriend who accepts me as I am.

So when I feel down or like everything is falling apart, I just need to pick up the pieces. Take a break. Take a look at everything that is happening around me.
If I can make things better or improve a situation, I will try to.
If people ask for my help, I will help.

After all life is short, so I will take it with a grain of salt, a slive of lemon and a shot of tequila.
