So the week has been a little crazy. Last Sunday I got a phone call that my grandmother in South Africa was not doing very well and we all thought she wasn’t going to make it. So my mum and I made a quick trip back to South Africa.
It was really crazy as I didn’t think I would be able to go but my mum offered to pay for my ticket and my younger stepped up and looked after my sons for the week. I was amazed and so grateful that they did and it proved to me that I can do this alone, and that I don’t need XH as I have a fantastic support system to rely on.
I had vowed to have a week of NC with XH, however I had to call him to tell him what was up. It was a very short conversation and I didn’t realise that I said this:
‘It doesn’t affect you at all. I have made all the arrangements. Just arrive on Friday to collect the boys as arranged.’
He had very little to say to that.
