To start with I was posting on here about how miserable and bored I was. Now I wake up happy and go to bed happy!!
My house is how I want it, my girls are happier (even pre school have noticed this), financially I am better off and I am happy. I only wish I had done this years ago!
So, for those of you just starting out on your own it does get better and you will be happy 
Sorry if this is a bit fluffy!!
