    Absolutely Squizz....although the more he earns the more I get....so actually Id like him to get an amazing job and keep Bea clothed, fed and enough money that I can take her out and do nice things!

    That's very true.

    Hope it's a nice day there, meant to be lots of sunshine on the way :cool:

    It's turned out beautiful actually, we have been at the borough gardens for the last 2 hours. Bea runs through the water fountains and I get to sit down and relax :)

    ex is flipping annoying me with the woe is me... Doesn't think he will be coming down again this weekend! It wouldn't be so bad but I am going to seriously have to look for another job as I can't afford to keep having time off work grrrrrr. Oh well makes life easier for us to go to R sisters party on Saturday night

    Well I think its just excuses Bun...he wants to get his bike sorted out and is waiting for quotes and then arrange so that they can do it and he can pick it up on the saturday. I asked him if he was coming as I needed to get things arranged if not...his response was he hadn't heard and that I should get things organised and it would then be his tough shiiite...Oh woe is me, im so hard done by! The last weekend he came down was 18th April! !!!!!!! rediculous!

    Just keep smiling and asking when he's coming - it's his loss.

    Sadly I went through the same with my ex....he's now not seen DD's for 4 years (he has asked a few times in the past year but DD's aren't interested and I think at their age they know what they want)

    B isn't going without love and affection and has shown by the lack of nightmares that her life is far more settled now.....

    You're doing a fab job :T

    No she's not missing anything Pooky, R is a good stand in Dad and Im sure their relationship will only get stronger and stronger and if ex doesn't make the effort she won't remember him and will look as R as her dad.

    I do find it amazing that the night terrors have completely stopped, she was obviously very very stressed by him and the way he was with her

    I like to think I am doing an ok job as a single parent

    I find it completely amazing too Sally, Your life must be so different now. Its kind of a shock, in a good way. Its great to know the night terrors seem to have stopped, shows you made the right decision in kicking out the stupid scum bag - as if we didn't know that all ready.
