the end was just the beginning
I get my kids back tonight after a lonely Easter without them. They've been having a lovely time with their cousins, and I'm glad of that. But sitting at home alone has felt like some sort of cruel punishment - normally have gone along and been part of the fun. Not anymore. There were moments... Continue Reading →
They say a picture paints a thousand words but sometimes it hides them instead. Take this photo of Husband and I, at a wedding we attended in Charleston, South Carolina, this time last year ... Don't we look happy? The perfect couple. Except we weren't. The whole trip had a funny, stilted cloud over it... Continue Reading →

The realisation we'd never do the road trip to the in-laws as a family again was a bit confronting. And it sucked... Continue Reading →

The tears poured from my eyes as I lit on the image, and the only thing that might have made it even more satisfyingly melodramatic... Continue Reading →
The kids are leaving today. They're going on a road trip with Husband to visit their grandparents and cousins. Normally, I would accompany them on such familial excursions. But not this time. In fact, never again. The eldest wanted to know why I couldn't come too ... in a separate car. Sigh. Fark divorce sucks.... Continue Reading →
I feel ashamed that I wrote a blog a few days ago called The worst thing DID happen, blithely unaware that someone I care about had lost their husband in an accident. I opened an email from her yesterday afternoon and my mouth literally fell open in shock. She has daughters not much older than... Continue Reading →
