I've been house sitting for a friend for the last two weeks - yesterday I popped home to pick up my post and see my family - When I walked in mum asked me to sit down - the short and short of it is Dad is leaving us.
Mum is in a bad way. I don't think it's really hit my little sister yet - see how she is after he goes on Saturday. I don't know what to think just yet - I'm somewhere between angry as hell and utterly heartbroken. He's not trying to fix the problems that have led to this, he's just walking away. I hoped that he'd want to try.
I'm worried about mum. Things have been bad for her for the last couple of years and I'm not sure if she's strong enough right now to deal with everything that's coming. Rachel is only just 14. I never thought this would happen to her.
Nothing else to say so I'll stop here. Anyone on facebook, please don't mention this on my wall. My mum is on there and I doubt she'd appreciate any of this being broadcast like that - too many people on there who she'd rather let know in her own time.
Any LARPers, hope you had a good one at the G - wish I could have made it!
Take care,
