Reading past posts, I realized i focused too much on the negativity of my situation.
Here's what i did for myself over the weekend.
On friday, I joined a church cell group and made friends.
On saturday, I participated a seminar on parenting. Well, its centered on both parents but i think i can make this work with my kids. Spoke to the speaker about being a single parent and he promised to look for materials that could help me. No support group for divorced people or single fathers available here! Had a family gathering over dinner later in the evening. Met some distant relatives whom i don't even remember and found myself sitting on the same table with them. Being an introvert, I gulped and just shook everybody's hand and of course that made myself quite comfortable because they actually warmed up to me. I had quite a conversation out there.
On sunday, joined a church service and had lunch with some members. I spend the rest of the evening with my kids and had a little bit of drama dealing with D4.
Some weekend, eh?
