My journal by Debbie age 43 and 1/4

Good evening journal.  Well its 10.40pm here and its rained all day.This afternoon i had to meet my ex and my daughters father for the first time in a year as he had my daughters christmas present (late i know). Anyway i got really wound up about it cos he is one of the parts of my past that i would rather forget and one look at his ugly mug and its flashbacks r us. In the end i thought 'no screw him' and just basically made polite smalltalk for a while and waved him off. If i can meet him without crumbling then i'm well on the way. He made my life a living hell and my daughters so lucky that she's too young to remember his abusive ways. Hopefully i won't have to see him for another year but the girl did good and i handled it like a pro so a big pat on the back for me. Hope all my readers and friends have had a wonderful day and i love yaX
