Of course my most favourite tipples I have very recollection of drinking...is that normal or is that just me??<br /><br />teacher mummy - Thanks :-)))<br /><br />Fraught Mummy - Ha! Ha! Yes I have few men in my past who I am sure are still pining for me too...<br /><br />Redhead - I know. For a supposedly 'mummy' blog I do write so much more about me than the kids. And goodness knows there is plenty of material there.<br /><br />MWA - Haiti is a bummer. I repeat. Git!<br /><br />KR - Yes, you do tend to have the last word in gibberish!! hee hee.<br /><br />Calif Lorna - Okay - if you insist!<br /><br />Iota - ha!ha! Honest to God, you couldn't make this up. I wish it was just the product of an over fertile imagination!<br /><br />NVG - thanks love. It really does help to write all this stuff down rather than just have it swimming around in my head, distracting me from every day life.<br /><br />Grit - great advice. I think I have some dolls in the toy room which will do just the job...<br /><br />Bethany - thank you! Oh I had so many other cutting responses to the Dr. Feel quite disappointed that I didn't get the opportunity to use them.<br /><br />Cassandra - spot on. I wouldn't change those days of heels and sports cars for the hours that I have spent clearing 300ft of silly string off my kitchen floor this morning. My life now is far more glamourous!<br /><br />Jessica - I actually do feel quite reasonable about it now. If I were to predict the type of guy that I would get drawn to now it would be someone quite different to ex too. I'm sure that in the long term, cracks might enter his new relationship which are quite different to the chasms that appeared in ours. But I can see the sense in his choice now. <br /><br />Expat mum - abso-bloody-lutely.Nicolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07017352687163694581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5778330150286788997.post-48815022137704469922010-01-30T14:55:50.603-06:002010-01-30T14:55:50.603-06:00Yes well, he may be doing admirable things in Hait...Yes well, he may be doing admirable things in Haiti but he still behaved like a teenage prat.Expat mumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17798190669591053390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5778330150286788997.post-20593930446312704332010-01-29T15:03:36.684-06:002010-01-29T15:03:36.684-06:001 - I still say PFFT on Dr. Disaster.

He is a git.<br /><br />2 - Of COURSE it's the best thing ever when you're the winner. I mean, come on!!<br /><br />3 - Amazing insight, really. One thing you didn't mention was how you felt about all of it. Your voice in the post seems strong and accepting of the realizations. Or does it bum you out that things changed so drastically and his "perfect fit" isn't you anymore (and vice versa)?

No one ever said they wished that they'd spent more time in the office just before they croaked. <br /><br />I love your writing.
