Im in again this week but will be mostly lurking. Not in a very good frame of mind and seem to be wallowing in self pity. Doesnt help that its my wedding anniversary on Wednesday and my ex is out enjoying life and im sat here bloody miserable. Doesnt help that he wont divorce me, doesnt pay me maintenance, doesnt work, doesnt bother with his kids from one week to the next but has taken on a new daddy role with someone elses. Grrrrrrrr.
OK rant over im off to boot the black dog up the asre and get some cleaning done.Sealed Pot Challenge member #982
