How should I proceed now? Is there hope?

[NotCrackingUp]

I'm 18 in my heart, Pinhead, can look 35-40 in the mirror, feel 250 on a bad day and my husband sees me as about 60 (to his 25). New theory of relativity.

Reading I do - lots. And doing things with kids. But girls of 10 and 13 whose father has done a runner and gone off with so else have a habit of being less than fun, betimes. All the anger he should be getting is taken out on me. The 10 yr old is right now crying her eyes out because of something I said (brush your teeth) in the wrong tone of voice.I've had it with tantrums - the father's and the children's. I'm all in. And it's only Friday night. Going to St Malo tomerrow to spend the weekend at a book festival. Look it up on a map. It should be fun.
