I can recognise now that its my 'alcoholic' voice, and now I can tell, its easier to ignore. I don't have to please him. Typical that its a man isn't it lol, makes it easier - I'm used to tuning out evil male voices lol.
Hows you situation these days AC?
I'm just waiting to find out if I can get any money, then I can leave :j the plans all coming together, I do feel guilty, but gotta keep telling myself that if he didn't treat me so badly, I wouldn't be running away from him.Stay-at-home, attached Mummy to a 23lb 10oz, 11 month old baby boy.0 -
