With onlyb two weeks to go I started my christmas shopping and with five children plus other family members I think I may be... Sign in to see full entry.

Sorting priorities
After the year I have had I have decided, with only twenty-four days left, get myself a lot more organised for the year 2009. I think I have done very well to survive the walking out of my wife in April. Somehow, and I will admit to struggling, I have kept my family together and I am going to make...

Christmas quandary

This is the first christmas where my wife and children's mother isn't going to be with us and I really want to make the time special for them so they don't think too much. But how do I best do this?

Owing to a a build up of all the problems over the recent months I found myself getting lower and lower until, thanks to my kids, I plucked up the courage to go to the doctor.

No matter what help I try to give him or get for him he seems to be on a mission of self-destruction. Twice this weekend I had to have the police out to him for violence, drunkeness and...

Thank you Blogit
For as long as I can remember I have wanted to be able to write fiction that people would want to read. Yet I have never thought I had the talent and I had no idea where to get my writing out in to the world. Then I came across this site where people could write about pretty much anything and people...

My son and the law (hopefully concluded)
Today, Thursday, I took my son to court so he could face the great British justice system, where he was facing sentencing for the time he took my car. Neither of us knew what to expect, all we knew was that he was not going to be sent to a young offenders, because we had already been told so. It was... Sign in to see full entry.

I apologize
My last piece of short fiction came to me when I was feeling low. I am NOT in any way, shape or form belittling those that self harm, as I understand, only to well, the pain and suffering that can cause it The truth is I have self-harmed ever since I was thirteen years of age. I don't know why I do... Sign in to see full entry.
