I am very happy to officially announce my arrival as a single mother of two!
Most of my family and friends are wringing their hands and wondering why I am not on the floor wimpering. Me? I feel freedom coming at last, not bothered that he has buggered off with a woman from work - she is welcome to the miserable sod. My kids seem quite happy with the situation...so mines a bacardi and coke.

Yay - congrats on your new beginning. Glad you're so chipper about it - Hope I will be too when my mess is sorted out. Have to say, although I'm very very sad, part of me is looking forward to it too. Thanks for sharing!

Another one joining in here. Toasting the strength we women have under duress. Well done on your view of life. I'm hoping that I will be the same. Have in all intent purposes been a single mum for so long since h has been travelling and not around for the last two years.

Hi
I have been a whimpering wreck for too long. It's only coming on MN that has opened my eyes and I agree, it is far better to be rid of those w**kers. Let some other poor woman be lumbered with him and get up a two in the morning to feed him cause he's hungry after a hard night partying.
