    Hi Sea

    Just a quick hello and welcome back. Sorry to hear about the split and that he is being a right idiot about it all.

    Keep strong.

    You can and will survive this.

    Hugs

    Hang on in there Sea..for what it's worth I do think you are doing the right thing.We have all been there with you feeling the pain.You tried really hard to sort things out over the last couple of years and you've had a lot of bad times.
    Of course you feel like you're losing something but you are strong and will get over this.You have to think of you and your childrens wellbeing.
    I strongly believe that once you are back at work in a couple of weeks you'll feel a lot better.
    Good luck with the solicitors and hugs to you and your kids and your mum xx

    Hugs from me too Sea. Life sounds hard right now, very hard - I'm glad at least the HV was helpful to you.

    And happy bombshells in the living room sounds lovely! Getting the kids to bed when they're tired from a nice day - thats got to be a good feeling.

    Hope this evening is kind to you.

    Hiya Sea. You hang on in there girl. You're going through tough times and you're bound to feel sad but you know you're doing the right thing (or if you don't, we do!)

    Life isn't always easy but you've got your two lovely children so just think of them and keep on keeping on.

    Hi all

    Feeling much better today - thank you for all your lovely messages. He drank 9 cans last night and reinforced exactly why I was doing this, as DS saw the beer in the kitchen and immediately said Daddy's beer.

    Just having a cuppa now and then off to have a shower and get ready for the solicitors. He's in bed now - said there wasn't any point in going to work if he had to be back for 11.30 to look after the kids - yeah, right.

    Hoping for another NSD today, but need bread so possibly not! :)

    No point going to work, and nine cans..... not good.

    Well, I hope the shower is refreshing, and your trip to the solicitors goes smoothly. Its a troubling time, of course..... but remember, you've tried for years to make it work, and it just doesn't. So this is the best course to go forwards with, in spite of how you feel right now. But lots of hugs for you, it sounds sooo tough. Hope you feel able to post when you get back, to let us know how you got on.
