It is The Children's Mother's son's 20th birthday today but late last night he was 'blown out' by his girlfriend. He is not a happy puppy, he was so looking forward to the next few weeks holiday with her. Being very new to this parenting thing, I sometimes find myself hopelessly ill equipped to help with these situations, limited to the 'plenty more fish in the sea' type of support. I'm getting better though, slowly! Ah, the Christmas decorations, always good for a family ‘discussion’!

It goes against the grain of my trying to think positively and keep up the good work Saz. But hey, l've even bought myself some gifts for the tree, so l dont feel quite so bloody miserable. So lets toast each other, and our bah humbugs at home with a virtual G&T...Cheers babe!! oh my…its about expectations and this year…l havent got any, except to expect nada, nought, zilch, then perhaps we can be pleasantly surprised.
