I think half term is slowly killing me..... it's always so manic trying to split my time between working from home in the morning and the afternoon's in the office.... and the munchkins dad today said he was dropping him back a little early as he was 'knackered'! Lol hard life for some.... try going through what i do on a regular basis then!
Why is it that mothers will look after the kids, work, keep house and the other 101 million jobs that make everyone else's life run smoothly, and does so with minimal fuss.... where as when you talk to the dad they only focus on one thing at a time so if they have child duty then you can guarantee the rest of the stuff goes to shit and they always refer to this as baby sitting (seriously?!?!?), and will expect time of in lieu? We don't ever get that luxury... At least in my case i know what i have to pick up, my expectations of my ex are low as he is a complete knob and i am trying to separate myself from him as much as possible so he has as little impact on my day to day existence as i can get away with
For that it means a lot of the jigsaw pieces of my life are there, i have all the outside pieces in place and it's the bits in the middle i am now figuring out, where do they go? How do they fit together?
It's just a shame that no matter how i put them together, take them apart and re-do it, there is still a gap where there is a few missing pieces... and i know i haven't lost them, they're not hiding under the settee... it's that someone has walked off with them.
I had hoped they would be part of the jigsaw but they don't want to be.... to them they have lots of little jigsaws in their life, they don't mix the pieces.... i just wished they realised how important they are and was able to still be part of the bigger version, as although it might be harder to do that puzzle, the final picture could be so much more
