I'm a single mum

It's funny how in life, you just plod along doing what you need to do, and after a while you start to think and feel it is the norm.

Today it just dawned on me that my married life is not normal, never have been. I am in truth a single parent, to a real child, and sometimes to an AS husband. 

I've often wondered why people take such a long time to finish a task. Actually the reason is because I've been so used to doing everything myself, before he took over some of the household chores, that I had to be super efficient, and super fast. My brain works fast because I need to do what I need to do. 

So the truth is I am my daughters only emotional and physical (financial and taking care of stuff) support. The AS Hubster is just there. But completely hollow. He's a shell. Present. But when things don't go his way, the shouting will start.

Yesterday my daughter told me that he doesn't like her daddy any more.

He was on a roll of being the best parent on earth, but as predicted it didn't last long. Mr Hyde is back as my daughter said. I feel sad for her. 

We continue with her therapy next week.....
