just to feel a bit sad because............

[looneymum]

Kids away this week with their Daddy.

In court for final family hearing this week.

XH emigrating to Aus (not sad about that bit - although v sad for DC).

House just quiet. Have tidied their rooms and changed bed clothes... cleaned although still have masses to do and just feel sad.

Lovely mumsnet ladies.... please post cheery thoughts!
xx

its tuesday already!!!

they will be home soon!

Ah... that was quick... yep... they are back on Sunday. I have tons of great stuff going on but you know when you just get that black cloud feeling! Thanks ILT

Hi KerryM. I know I know. When they are here I always want to sit and put my feet up. It is a bizarre curse to miss them. They will be having a blast!. Off to get cuppa and perhaps half packet of biscuits!

forget the housework.you have empty house-put some loud music on,put your pj's on,grab a glass of riesling and mn until the small hoursooh and a luscious long soak in the bath!

hey looney i have exactly the solution for you. go see SATC2. absolute medicine, i am prescribing this for you and it is an order! seriously, you will have a really good laugh and cry, just what is needed here.

Hi Cheesesarnie. What a grand idea. Can you imagine I will be bladdered in time for Emmerdale! Best not induldge before relaxing bath tho as may have to involve emergency services! x

Hello Gene. Well, I may book the flicks for tomorrow. Thanks for that.

seriously, go see it. then come back here and tell me how right i am

Great ideas girls - I would do al of the above and not get out of my PJs (apart from cinema visit of course)
Also what about getting soem girlfriends round for a film night - popcorn, cake etc and girlie films - and plenty of vino - you can lie in day after and no-one to bother you.
Sending big hugs............

Hiya Iamamug. It's an idea. Am on promise for this eve.... things can't be all bad! Have hot bloke so probs best not to get mullered before he gets here! xx

Gosh - lucky lucky you - hot bloke to keep you company??
Am well impressed - enjoy!

Looneymum, I don't think it's at all unreasonable to feel a bit sad at the moment. When the children are under your feet you won't be able to have time to string two thoughts together but now the house is empty it's probably impossible not to feel a bit of regret about the end of a relationship which doubtless started out with as much hope of a happy and long future as any other.

I hope the last hearing goes ok and that you all manage to make happy futures for yourselves. Sending you hugs.

Thx so much Plopsie. Just can't wait for Friday to be over and to hopefully get some closure and assurance that the DCs welfare will be looked after by the judicial system. I know the future will be bright as my DCs are wonderful and my partner is the best ever. Thx so much for posting. xx
