I'm very proud of my DD, she was reluctant to see him until he arrived when they sat and played a couple of board games very quietly They've now gone out to get dinner at a place in the village. Hopefully she's having a nice time, she seemed okay when they left. Big huggles for her later

Bless her KK, it must be really difficult for her as she can hardly know him really with the amount of time he puts aside for her. But you can't hide the truth from kids, if he is a plonker she will/ has already worked it out for herself.

Hi Pippi, had some bad news see my thread. So glad that everyone else is having a good time . KK feel sorry for your DD. I was in that position myself. My mum never bad mouthed dad, but I soon decided that he wasn't the world's best dad. I did forgive him when i was older though, so I hope it works out for you.

Well, DD came back from her dinner happy, if a little quiet, and exOH dropped her back saying he'd text me some dates to see her again. Yawn, he always says that, just takes months/up to a year to do so, wonder how long it'll be this time! I'm glad she had a nice time with him and pleased with myself for being me (can't explain what I mean, but I'm glad I didn't let my facade slip at all).

Beloved OH was a lovely and calming influence on me, as he so often is.....and I felt a bit of a naughty gal going out almost immediately and leaving them to it, as he's struggling a bit with the change in season, but so thankful that he babysat for me.

Roll on Friday, once I hopefully get back to sleep in a bit!
