I have just tidied my whole house, it still needs LOTS of work because I lived with a pig for years who destroyed my confidence and my oomphf but it is getting there.
I am feeling very blessed today, mostly because
- I never EVER have to speak to or acknowledge his mother again
- I am in complete control of what the kids and I eat, no more shortcuts so he can buy beer or whatever
- I don't have to answer to anyone about any of the things I am doing
- There is far, far less washing and after today all of it (including bedding) is done and I won't end up finding his dirty boxers on the floor tomorrow morning as just a classic example of him not giving a shit.
I really think that I am well cut out for this single parent status. I feel so empowered by it and I know times are going to get hard but I am proud to be doing it alone and glad that he is out of my life.
Please share the best bits for you of being single!
