GOOD MORNING LONDON...




It's exactly 4 weeks since 
I arrived back to my home town
 and hit the floor running...

I have separated from my husband of 23 years

We left Sweden at 11pm on Friday 17th August
I drove through the night and we caught a 7.30am flight from Stockholm to London, a taxi was waiting for us and within the hour we were back to my Dads house and then straight to the rental property, where the agent met us with keys.

Me and my 2 sons now call this home...

Today is the first time in that period of time that
 I really feel like I can take a pause and relax

So many things to deal with and cope with...

But the future looks BRIGHT and golden

I'm going to have a nice cup of tea and BAKE!

HAPPY WEEKEND TO YOU ALL!



'It is our attitude at the beginning of a difficult task which, more than anything else, will affect its successful outcome' William James

  13. That's the way to go Julie!! I already thought something was wrong. Your last few years must have been very hard with your mother and your marriage breaking up.

    I sincerely hope there will be lots of happiness for you and your boys in store in future. You are right to bake. It always helps to feel better!!

    Take care!

    Love,

  15. Oh Julie I had to read your post a couple of times, just so that it would all sink in. You are certainly going through some major life changes and I just wish I could reach through the computer and give you a hug! You have such a wonderful attitude though, so I am sure you and your darling boys will be just fine. My Mum divorced my Dad after 30 years of marriage - then went to university for the first time! Change can be so wonderfully positive. Best wishes to you hon. Becks xxx

  16. Oh Julie, wishing you all the best. A tough time you've had, of late, and I admire how positive you are through it all. Warmest blessings to you and your boys for a brand new start that brings only good things. It must be so hard as a mother to stay strong for your children through tough times.
    You are an inspiration to them, no doubt, xxx
