It's my first night without the kids

[CrackerOfNuts]

Xp finally agreed to having them every Friday night, until Saturday after lunch.

Just dropped them off, they were fine, quite excited, as they will all be sleeping in the same room.

Give it half an hour and I will be bored and missing them like mad.

My son is with his dad for the night, and i am also stuck at home with nothing to do!!!!

All friends have partners and you get sick of asking them to do things, and them umming and arring and never returning the invites.

God I'm borrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrred

My friend will take the huff though then Aimsmum, she wants to organise it.

One friend suggested I have a party at mine, and I said 'yeah and who am I supposed to invite'.

I remember on my 21st, I had a little get together at home with my dad, brothers, my best friends parents (friend was away at uni) and her nan.

I invited other members of my family and they didn't come, so won't be doing that again anytime soon.

Snap Jane, all of my 'friends' have partners too.

My elder brother doesn't go out at all unless with his gf and then it is only anywhere she wants to go, and she doesn't like anyone else going

My other brother lives too far away and I did invite him over but he can't afford to come apparently.

Cracker - Im dreading my first night when dd goes to the shithead so I know what you feel like - all my mates are with hubbies living a blissfull life so I can relate to how you feel. Im sure you will get through it enjoy the wine - think of the kids running riot round ex p staying up late and hell have to deal with the strops in the morning when they are knackered and you can have a hangover in peace - hell soon get bored of being a parent - tell you what give them some homework to do next week as well whilst they are there and maybe see if you can speak to them whilst they are there as well to remind them how much you love them.

Take care

Thanks

Have decided to call it a night, just getting more and more miserable sat here with nothing to do, might aswell sleep instead.

Morning.

I am definatly enjoying the morning alone alot more than the night. I hate night times alone.

Got up this morning, did myself a nice bacon sarnie and a huge cup of tea, and then had a bath.

Now blitzing the downstairs.

at least you feel the beneift this mronign , hoepfully that willahve a knock on effect when you see the kids again . Is it worth finding out if there are any fitness or dance classes on a Friday night you could join or a book group perhaps ? Then you are less reliant on your fair weather friends but have the option to go out.

I was up at 7:30 Aimsmum, because next doors kids woke me. Mind you it still was a lie in, as Ds normally wakes me at about 6:30.

I wouldn't go to either of those on my own Liz, infact wouldn't go to a dance class full stop
