It’s the anniversary of my mum usually days like these I withdraw & hide away, but I’m going to push myself get to the gym & have a heavy weight session on glutes. Also start making my daughters birthday cake & try my sheer best not to eat any

Hi April I withdraw on the anniversary of losing my Mum. You have my sympathies. It never gets easier does it? You just get used to it.
I am sure she’s very proud of who you are.
As always there’s a community here that will support you.
How old is your daughter? I’ve got 4 kids, eldest is 12, the twins are 5, and the youngest is almost 6 months old.

Thank you
We all love a bit of cake! I’m going to try my very best to behave… try being the main word 
That’s completely understandable 
anniversaries can hit hard. Be gentle with yourself — even showing up to the gym on a day like this is a big win. A heavy glutes session sounds like a great way to have released some of that emotion, and the cake-making is such a lovely thing to pour your love and energy into for your daughter.
Hope today was a bright as it could be. Sending strength
