Over here it is close to being another near 40 C day. Haven't had rain for so long, I cannot remember what it looks like. Watching the Bathurst car race today. It's the big race each year Australia puts on. Fantastic. Also have to itemise all my belongings for when they get picked up to transfer me back home in 9 weeks time. Glad you found some great self-help books TTD180.

Well I'm sat here trying to paint my nails before I'm off to beddy byes I figured since it is the first time my mum has seen me since I started my beauty course, I better look the part My son's friend didn't realise that my H had left and I thought I told him. He asked me today why he left and I answered because he doesn't love me anymore. He said he felt very angry about this and how could he do this to my son! I said he still loves my son, he just doesn't love me anymore. My son then came out with a classic! He said "apparently Mum said my dad is going through something called a midlife crisis". ROFL!! I told my son don't ever say that to dad and he said he won't! They don't miss a trick do they? lol.

Yes TTD180, it is spring. Mid 40's usually in summer. Nothing like being out in the central part of Queensland. Thank goodness it is the last year. I will never complain about the heat every again back in the city.

DVD was Battleship. S13 had already seen it but wanted to watch it again with me as I hadn't seen it. Good job I'm not a girly film type of woman LOL - aliens and gunfire (and men in uniform LOL ). In fact, most of the films in our collection are action, with a few kids films, comedies and sci-fi thrown in for good measure.

I've not seen battleship. My son will only watch the occasional action film, he prefers the animation films

Mine likes both. In fact, dinner and movie tonight was The Adventures of Tin Tin - definitely more kids film than action. Sometimes that makes a nice change from one full of violence and guns and fighting.

Hi I'm back the weekend went ok and my mum behaved herself, lol. I took her round the cathedral and she said it was one of the best ones she's been to We were in time for evensong and were treated to the full choir and organist She said the music was beautiful and she had tears in her eyes. We went to a little cafe nearby and mum said it's been the best day she's had in a long time My room was lovely The bed was a bit lumpy, but I was so tired by the time I got to bed that I slept really well I really enjoyed my time and so did my son The only thing that spoilt it was H ringing me! He went on again about telling my mum that he was a pig and a B******! I told him not to start. He said he wanted my mum to pay for the divorce that he wants and I don't. It all comes down to money again! I told him that if he wants a D, then he's going to have to pay for it! He didn't like that, so he started threatening me with joint custody. He said that my son can choose who he wants to live with now and if anyone came round to the house then they'd give him full custody. Again, he's after the carer's allowance that I get for my son. He then went on to tell me about which bits I've not cleaned and I felt really down. I tried to cheer myself up for the meal, but I was still feeling a bit miserable. However, after 3 glasses of wine I cheered up a bit, lol. After my mum had gone up to bed, I tried to see what I could find online. I came across a women's helpline that deals with physical and emotional abuse. One of the questions was - Does he threaten you? Well the answer was yes. I rang them up and they talked to me over the phone and said that they'll be in touch today. They rang back today and said they didn't cover my town and put me in touch with another group that did! A few hours later someone rang me and has offered me emotional and practical support. It sounds like a counselling service and the practical support sounds interesting Maybe they'll give me a cleaner, lol. I was worried all morning as my H took my son out and I thought when I saw my son next he would announce that he is moving in with dad However he didn't thank goodness, but I had to wait until I saw my son at 4.15pm. It was a day of waiting and has left me physically and mentally exhausted. Physically exhausted because I didn't get to bed until late and although I got some quality sleep it wasn't enough! This women's support doesn't contact H at all which is good I went to college this morning and the loud girl in the class had a go at me again. I spoke to the tutor and said that I'm waiting to see a mentor. She said she'll have a one to one with me tomorrow. I beginning to think that I've taken on too much by going on this college course. Thank goodness we've got a week's holiday in 2 weeks time In the mean time I've got my H to put up with. I'm not going to answer any of his calls or messages and if he wants to arrange anything he can speak to my son about it. I'm going to have to give this place a good clean, but then I'm sure H will find something else wrong with it! I wasn't too bad this morning but after that girl had a go at me again then I went downhill. Her friend tried to talk to me on the way down on the stairs and without knowing what she really said I snapped at her as well. I said I didn't want to know, I'm having a lot of personal problems at the mo. Anyway, I've completed my homework this afternoon so they can't say that I'm behind in my lessons and I'm still capable of taking this course. I intend to speak to the mentor next week about this other girl, I don't know why she doesn't understand because she's been through this twice before. I think though the difference is that she left them. She doesn't understand about my son either. She was saying that my bus stop is only 2 mins over the road so why do I have to leave early? I told her because my son was not ready to go and I had to wait for him to go to the toilet before we caught the bus. My son's got into this bad habit that whereever we go he has to go to the toilet before he leaves the building! I feel that I've taken 2 steps back I really felt that I was doing well until this came along! Any advice will be gratefully received

Wow, TTD, that's a lot going on! Take a deep breath. I had a rough day today, too. Going to save that for my own thread, though because now my problems seem smaller.
Glad you have resources available and are taking advantage of them - both for the M sitch and the school. It's often so helpful having someone to turn to, and listen to you and give you advice when you are in a tough spot.
It is very hard to go back to school when you have all the other responsibilities in life as well - never mind when going through the M problems at the same time. Hang in there. You've come this far, and we know you can do it. I hope you can find some peace with the other women who can't seem to leave you be at the school.
Sorry to hear H is bullying. It's just ridiculous that he thinks your mom should pay for a D! I would just ignore that kind of nonsense outright.
Glad you had a nice time with mom and son. And that you had a few "relaxers" to take the edge of the H trying to ruin your fun.
HWA, 40c! that's insane! I thought it was only supposed to be your spring there, lol. Sounds like you've been busy HWA
