Tonight didn't go as planned

I have not felt good all day but I have been trying to fight my way through it.

I was able to make the chili Mac for lunch/dinner but as the day went by I just wasn't feeling better. I was still getting very dizzy and lightheaded every time I stood up.

As some of you know our daughter struggles with changes in her schedule and I was supposed to make a apple dump cake tonight, her idea. I couldn't let her down so I was going to make this for her no matter what. I did my best to hide the fact that I wasn't feeling good but she noticed.

We are all sitting outside watching the games and she comes over and says I was thinking that it would be okay if we had s'mores tonight instead of the dump cake. I forgot the boys wouldn't be here to try it and I think they would really like it.

Are you sure, I know you were excited I said. I felt horrible. I knew exactly why she did this.

Yeah Dad, I want us all to try it together. I felt so horrible. She was so excited to try this cake and because of me she changed her mind. She shouldn't have to do this because I don't feel good. Way to go me.

So we decided we'd have s'mores during halftime.

I don't remember much after that. I sat next to Joel and I guess I feel asleep. I missed the royals game, I missed the Chief's game and I missed s'mores. I slept through the whole evening.

I really hate letting my family down like this.

Now everyone is asleep and I'm awake, I feel like crap. And I know I won't be able to sleep at all.

Well believe it or not it does show your daughter can deal with change when needed she showed champion which was needed at this time so do not be hard or yourself and maybe give your daughter a big kiss and hug and say thank you for understanding.

@updown2020 I did. I told her how sweet she is and how proud I was of her because things like that aren't easy for her. I might of even teared up a little bit to
