Hi, single mum looking for friends...

[pammyj]

Hi everyone, Just thought I would say hi, I have just recently split from my partner of 7 years and we have two kiddies 4 and almost 3. I work part time as an administrator and never seem to have time to myself and when the kids are in bed at night I have too much quietness which allows me to think too much!!

I just would like to find some friends in a similar situation, even better if they lived nearby, to chat to etc. Hope this forum can help out. cryingsmil
Thanks

Pam

HI there and welcome to the forum :)

Hi all, thank you for the welcome.
Ex left yesterday and it was very hard. My ds2 (2 years) didnt understand (or so I thought!) Today he asked where daddy was and I told him daddy was sleeping at his friends house and his bottom lip went down and he said 'what forever'. My heart sank.

I am now left without a car and you never realise those silly things make a big difference for popping to the shop or round a friends house. I have no friends in walking distance. I have to walk to work which is half an hour away and then after I have to pick up dd and then another 10 mins to ds2 nursery. One good thing I may lose weight.Although I havent really felt like eating anyway.

Well I will speak to you all later.

Regards
Pam

Hi All,

My ex is having the kids for the first time since he left tomorrow for a couple of hours and I feel quite nervous. Is this normal?

I feel like he is going to get the good bits like take them to wacky warehouse and Mac'd etc and I get all the crap like making them tidy up after themselves and brush their teeth!

I havent had a car since he left and feel quite isolated. I am going to walk into town when he has them so I am not sitting in an empty house. What am I going to do when he has them for the whole weekend? I dont drink so I can't get hammered.

I am also stuck about childcare issues as I dont know what the best solution will be with regards to the hours I should work and how long to put the kids in nursery/childminder. My youngest is only 2 and they go to nursery in the morning but I think it is too much for them to be there all day and I wouldnt get time with them properly. I'd get home about 4.30 and by the time they are fed and washed it will be bedtime!

I know I have to work it all out for myself I just wanted to have a moan:hissyfit:
And I know things will work themselves out in the end but I feel like I am in a deep hole with slippery sides and I am waiting for the knight to throw the ladder down and rescue me:help2:

Night All
Pam
