The Past Two Months I've Broken My Own 'Rules'

The past two months I've broken my own 'rules'. Though even the best rule has an exception. Two months ago my husband deployed for a month disaster relief work in the Bahamas - in the aftermath of Hurricane Dorian. My grandparents were also away for a two month stint in Europe, and my mum was unwell. In other words, my closest support and the people I usually rely on were not available to be relied upon. I was left with three children(6, 4, 1), a house, 2 businesses and my sanity to maintain. Here's what happened.
