Well – at least it makes some sort of sense in terms of helping me remember dates: not normally a strong point of mine…
Last night, I found out that Wife has been having an affair since Summer: an old school friend of hers. So, we’ll be getting divorced and putting an end to nearly ten years of marriage, and fifteen years of love, out of which came three of the most wonderful people you could hope to meet. For their sake, I am very sorry that it’s come to this – but I suppose that one has to be accepting (as I think I wrote earlier on here somewhere) of the difference between the things that one can and cannot change.
So: rough times ahead, no doubt – but after that, a better life, I pray.
So deeply sorry to hear this news. Your blog is full of witty, fun, happy-with-life atmosphere so it seems very cruel that this happens to you. I hope you manage to find some good to come out of the difficulties and find strength to deal with all that you and your family have to go through.
Fiona is wrong: *December* is the cruellest month…

Thank you. I won’t pretend that I’m not heart-broken, and very worried about our children – but at least I know the truth about someone I used to love, and can focus my energies elsewhere now.
