I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...

theatre and I are there already. I'm having a very berry tea with crackers, cheese and cherry tomatoes and she's having a joint with some beer and we're both on really comfy recliners on thick pile carpet. we need some help with the decor if anyone is around??
DS sure is turning THAT on on its ear!!!
22 Years here, guess that I have Always gone against trends.
Typically though, I think something is wrong with the laws.
With statistics I got off of this site, and my experience, I believe our countries No-Fault divorce system is bias. Thousands of years of matrimony ruined in 25 or so years. 93% of divorces filed by women and 93% of divorces filed 5th to 15th year. It is clear that women benifit and may be encouraged by the bias. This is my opinion, and conclusion, on this social mess.
I left because he's irresponsible.
In the minority there,
but the rest all too typical.
Phooey
Statistics irritate me at times.
I'm a person not a number.
I say "good riddance"
