to be so upset at the thought of my DD going to her dads for 3 weeks.

[watchforthesnail]

Shes 7, this is the 4th summer we have been divorced, its hardly a new thing.

I think maybe i wasnt bothered so much before as i was so knackered and needed a break (not that i didnt miss her). Ive had most of this week off, am working like a crazy thing while shes away, and then have the two weeks off when she comes back. She will have a lovely time and be safe, im not for a momment saying i dont want her to go...

but oh my goodness, i dont know how im going to manage so long not seeing her. Shes just so lovely, and such nice company, and well, my girl.

makes me upset just thinking about it.

i need to get a grip, dont i

I know how you feel. My ex and I have been separated 10 years since dd was a baby and this summer she is currently in the USA with him for 3 weeks (he moved out there last year, this is the second time she's been). She is currently there now.

It is hard but you do find once it's going on you cope ok, every day passes is another one till they come back.

You will be ok x
