I had plans to tell you what a fantstic year it has been.

I feel priveleged and immensely lucky to have had this year here in New Zealand

But it has all turned to ashes in my mouth.

I camr home from the Gym this morning so I could actually spend sometime with Steve before he went to work as he has seemed a bit off the last few days.  He was still a bit distant this morning so I finally asked 'are you having an affair' and got an affirmative.  She was a work colleague until very recently - in fact, I went to her leaving do.  He has been going to see her when melissa has been staying over at friend's homes and I have been on a late shift.  He is not prepared to give her up and I can't continue to have him here.

I feel my world has collapsed around me but I don't intend to cry or drink myself into oblivion.  I will take a few days off work to try and get my head together.  We have already been to the bank and to see a solicitor. 

What next?  I don't know.  I don't want to head back to Britian but I'm not sure I can afford to stay here.

I did gain some small measure of satisfaction by pouring conditioner and shampoo in the bags he packed and left in the bedroom.  And the contents of the hoover bag - I guess you have to take your pleasures where you find them. 

And i thought life was brilliant at 6.30 this morning.

Hi Karen,

I follow your blog regularly; you have my sort of sense of humour :o) So sorry to hear your news, but I like your style with the hoover droppings!

If you ever need a chat or a rant, feel free to PM me. It's a really shitty thing to happen and I can't imagine what's going through your mind at the moment.

Take care and look after yourself. Love and hugs,

Jules (another one - common as muck, aren't we :rofl: )

Like Jules ( no 2 ) has said i also follow your blog ....i am so sorry this has happened to you . But you have the right attitude to pick yourself up, wipe the dust from your trousers and get on with your life again without Steve.

Good luck and take care of yourself :)

thank you
