A small cry for help

Come shopping with us we need someone to drive us and carry our bags!

The final straw that has pushed me over the edge and left me in the dark place I am in, happened a few weeks ago now!

Our youngest, our daughter is heading off to start her first year at university, later this month. We have planned to spend her last week at home all together, doing lots of things to make the most of the time together.

It was decided that my wife and daughter would go clothes shopping on one of the days in that last week, I was asked to come along as they needed someone to drive them and someone to carry their shopping bags! Is that all I have become, is this all my best part of 50 years of life have amounted to, nothing more than a chauffeur and a bag carrier 🤷‍♂️

I am going to miss my daughter terribly, yes we argue a bit from time to time, but a lot of it's driven by how alike we are in so many ways, I hope above all else her life amounts to more than being a bag carrier and chauffeur!
