I last blogged in September 2018.
I honestly hadn't realised it had been so long since I last wrote in here.
One thing that has become clear is that sometimes the life you plan and hope for is not the one you're going to get. Or at least it might not happen the way you think it's going to happen or when you think it will.
A lot of people are doing the ten year reflection, but for me, to simply reflect back to where I was when I last posted to today is enough. My life is almost unrecognisable in some ways and in others not different at all. I'm still a parent but the way I'm parenting is very different. There's still two parents but we are both dealing with our own battles, travelling our own paths while trying hard to keep our child at the heart of what we do.
Parenting a child when you're separated is a totally different ball game. I'm still trying to work out how to do this, how much to communicate and share, how much is too much, when is it too little? How much to be responsible for....
There's no winners right now, but I'm hopeful in time the three of us will be in a happier more stable place, independently.
