The first post

Well, we all have to start somewhere... right?

So this is the first post. The one that is supposed to start with the backstory and you go from there. Well, what can I say?

I had met my husband in HS, and was best friends with his sister, although we didn't start dating until after I graduated. A few years later we married, and had two beautiful girls. They are now almost 4 and 2.

We didn't always have the perfect life, and one of our children has special needs, but I thought we were happy.Until almost 2 months ago when I got a call that would change my whole world - that my husband was leaving me.

I was devastated. Angry. Cried a lot.

But now, I'm in a place of acceptance. He made a lot of decisions that I didn't agree with, both in our marriage and now that he's left it. He started seeing someone almost straight away and that, again, is his choice.

So my focus now is on my beautiful girls, and me... and getting my life on track.

Don't get me wrong, it's bloody hard some days not to want to wish for my "old" life. But I'm making a new life. That may include someone else, or maybe not. Not up to me, if it's meant to be it's meant to be!
