I need (but can’t have):
A couple of moths off work to catch up with sleep and reset my body with regards to good food and exercise.
Another couple of months off work to sort out the grimy corners of the house, declutter and reorganise.
A couple of thousand pounds in savings.
A car that isn’t about to break down, a sofa that isn’t 30 years old, a wardrobe instead of a rail, a garden and a cleaner.
A chat with my mum (died 20 years ago) - I’d like to know what she thinks of her grandchildren and if she thinks I’m doing an ok job bringing them up. I’d also like her to cook me a lasagne, read me a story and tuck me into bed .
I want all these things but can’t have them and can’t even tell anyone I want them, because I have to be the strong one, the wise one, the breadwinner and the capable one. So I’m saying it here.
