Wow... Sorry guys. Life got busy.
We are great. I woke up and divorced abusive husband nearly two years ago. Got over the mid-life crisis and brainwashing.
The girls are amazing. Chloe is a highly sought after skin specialist, aged 21. She is engaged to the most incredible young man (I couldn't write a recipe for a more perfect guy for her. They've been together 5 years. No grandbabies yet. They have their heads screwed on. Getting their carers on track and building a nest egg first. They are both fitness fanatics and entering building and sculpting competitions.
Bree is turning 18. She is doing Childcare and finishes her Cert 4 in a month and then starts early entry Uni in July. She is wanting to work in Child Welfare and Ministry (she's a bigger Churchy McChurchface than I have ever been lol).
My news... I have a beautiful partner of 14 months. Only 4 years younger lol. We own our own home. I have two stepsons (I hate that word) who I couldn't love and adore more even if I'd birthed them myself. 12yo is in First year of highschool, plays football and is just gorgeous (and very close with Bree). 20 year old is 3rd Year Medical Science at Uni but taking 6 month gap to focus on his Tennis ranking (top 200 in Australia). My partner is the kindest, sweetest, most hardworking, honest man I have EVER met.
My WHOLE family (yes I once again am allowed to have them in my life) absolutely love my partner and our boys. Not a single fight between any of us in the 14 months we've been together. The girls love my partner and my mum says if we ever split...they want custody of him, not me lol.
Life is really good... And not just the keeping up appearances type good. Life is easy, drama free, stable, no police on the doorstep, no controlling behavior... Just happy, relaxed, no stress.
I'll say it to save anyone else the trouble... I was stupid, blinded by a sweet-talking, violent narcissist. I did the wrong thing by my baby girls, was going through a mid-life crisis and was general a damned idiot. But I've done two years of seriously hard work to heal and repair the damage. No-one can punish or shame me more than I have done for myself. But we are on the other side of it now... Annnnnnmd we are ALL happy.
Now to see if I can post dome updated pics of my beautiful young women.
♥Trish♥
WOW, long time.
