Both dc have gone with their dad this weekend, usually one or both choose not to go. I've done the housework & ironing, (the joys of a tidy house & empty ironing basket)I've got a pan of puttanesca sauce bubbling away, I don't usually cook for myself when dc are away. I'm going to open a bottle of wine, have a bath, get into my pj's & settle down in front of the tv for Nicholas Nickelby. Have an early night & a lie in tomorrow. Bliss! It doesn't seem that long ago that I couldn't bear it when dc were away. I was like a cat on a hot tin roof, counting the time down til they came home.For those lone parents in the early stages of lone parenthood...it really does get easier.
