Hi all,
I am new to forum sites like this, but thought it would be a good way to make some new friends!!
A bit about me:
I am 28 living in Surrey with Marc my partner who suffers from allopecia and clinical depression - he can be great or totally useless depending on the state of his mind. This has a huge impact on myself and the kids. But we cope. We have 3 children (Ben 5, Hazel 2 and Fern 1) all of whom are very lively and mischievious!
When I am not at home being a full time mum - and yes i do find the term "unemployed" very inappropriate as this is by far the hardest "job" that I have ever had - I am a qualified special needs teacher.

Anyway... that is me in a nutshell as it were. I am sorry for rambling.........

Hi Smirnoff, welcome aboard, i am Chris mum to 5 little monsters, run an online shop, part time work and being mum, yes i agree, it is a very hard job indeed with no pay at the end of it, whoever said mums job is easy, should wake up.
