A really good day today - alarm call is the usual my four and a half year old climbing into bed with me. Then my 12 year getting into it too.

The usual fight ensues - you know the kind: "Mum he's stuck his feet on my side", "I've got no bed he's pinched it all", "Mum shes got all the duvet", "I want to be on that side" and "I cant hear the T.V." cos he/she is "breathing to loud". We all know that kind of start to the day.

Then there's breakfast, ask the little one, "coco pops" he says - you ask the big one, she says "I'm not hungry yet I'll have it later", then we all know what happens next - "I dont want any either" says the little one.........

OMG I love mornings!

So I go in the shower - giving them a warning to be nice to each other.......

What do you reckon, were they nice to each other? Of course not! By the time I come out (and I don't know about you, but i've got it down to a fine art, 5 mins at the most) its "mum she's hit me", "mum he nipped me". Or sometimes you dont even manage to get out the shower and in comes the little one - "Mum she wont let me watch Cbeebies" or "she's hit me"!

All this before 7am - I feel sorry for my neighbours.

Holiday

My first ever abroad holiday. Yes I've gotten to the grand old age of 53 before I've planted my feet on foreign soil.  My flight was to Portugal, and my partner of 3 years was coming too. Unfortunately he's had a crisis and called off. That's fine I'm going anyway...  First flight omg brilliant, loved it.  And here I am , but it's raining. Will I let it spoil my experience? No chance in h***! Food, drink and cats today. What will tomorrow lead to. Let's wait and see. 
It is 6.18am I can't sleep well at the moment. Why? you ask... Well because in a little less a month I have to attend court! yes again. This time may if I'm lucky be one of the last, the run up to the end. Also I have an appointment to attend a clinical phycologist, today! But your not crazy... well lol some people may say I am ..... No it is so I can sort out my head, my feeling of guilt and uselessness, return my head to what is normal (is there a normal .. we shall see!) But back to the matter of court. A whole day is allotted for this as this is the day I have to stand up for myself in court, prove that my husband was a bully, control freak, abuser and quite a few other words I won't say on here as they are rude.... apart from COWARD ! He has the right to ask his 'barrister' to cross examine me! To provide verbal proof of the mental abuse I have suffered for years, the physical and mental abuse my children have suffered for years... Now your thinking surely ther...

Done over

After travelling to pick up my daughter from my sister's, as she had been staying there for half of the summer holidays. To give her something to do and help entertain my sister's kids (as they had just moved from Newcastle to Liverpool). All the customary stuff out the way, unpacking (as i decided to stay over a couple of nights), catching up, cuppa's, food etc you know the kind of stuff. Oh even the greeting of the dog, who by the way always goes mad to see us..... Well children in bed, we chatting, as you do and about half hour after midnight my Bro-in-Law takes the dog out for her last walk before we all go to bed..... Pretty normal yes hang on I'm getting there.... Well 5 min possibly less later he comes back in 'come outside' he says to me, 'and bring your keys' OMG i thought whats happened. So i do as i'm asked and go outside, to find some little Scouser has only gone and smashed my rear windscreen! Did they try and take anything? NO! Did they...
