  • Lots to do flying off tomorrow and so my head feels like a toy shop at the moment.
    Looking forward to a week of fun with my family, mainly looking forward to being able to do what I want especially over Christmas without the usual backlash..no walking on eggshells, but also feeling apprehensive. No regrets especially as I wont have to cook and clean for a whole week.
    .OH is having his Christmas day with his daughter, sister and mother ( bet he is on his best behavior). With the exception of his daughter, they are already slating me for leaving him at this time of the year, but BOOHOO because he has brought it all on himself and after reading over my Christmas diary from last year, not feeling guilty in the slightest.
    Managed another £40 into my mortgage account as only had to buy Christmas shopping for one this year...
    Well lots and lots to do................back 30th December, will post after Christmas........Happy Happy Christmas and wishing all my lovely friends on MSE the best Christmas ever XX

    Have a great time don't worry about leaving Dh totally understandable and with a bit of "luck" he'll show his true colours as you're not there to police him. See how the family like that!

    I'm so glad my fil is with his other son and wife not stuck in a hotel like last year with my ex dh.
