JLoves Posted December 27, 2009 Posted December 27, 2009 (edited) Worse thing about first Christmas as single parent was knowing there wasn't any presents under the tree for me. I know I could have got myself something, but worrying about money and buying presents for oneself doesn't mix. After the kids opened all their presents my daughter (6) said 'Dad, you don't have any presents'. 'No dear, I'm sure I'll get some later'. At least I was able to see them enjoy opening theirs. Spent the rest of the day at my parents with family so the day wasn't a disaster.. except for the 1/2 hour when she came to pickup the kids to take them to her parents for the rest of the day (and week in fact). Four more days before they come back home.. and yes, you guessed it, I'm house cleaning. I hope everyone has a Merrier Xmas next year! oh.. and Aksion, I'm sure your year is going to get better.. Just have to keep reminding yourself of it. Keep up with the AA! Edited December 27, 2009 by JLoves
