Feeling really down at the moment.

Hi everyone. Just want to tell you all that at the moment i am feeling a bit down with the way things are going in my life. Don't get me wrong, i my kids and all the rest, just sometimes i feel like that i am a useless mum at times, I have a husband that works overseas and we hardly ever see him, he works over in the mines in Papua New Guinea & i feel as though it is all my fault that i sent him there because i quit my job to be a full time stay at homemum, & now he has to leave the country to pay our mortage, bills, etc. We won't see him for christmas at all and the kids don't know bout it yet as they think he will be home and i don't want to break their hearts by telling them any different. Sorry if it sounds like to much for you all to read, just needed to get it off my chest. Thankyou for reading anyways.

Have i put this post in the wrong spot??? I wanted to post it in the forum, is that where it has gone??? Sorry if it isan't posted in the right spot!!

hiya babe
aww massive hugs sometimes when were down we all have bad days think that way its so hard these days being parents and supporting our families our hubbys have to work extra hours or in your case work away from home my dad used work away when i was young so we hardly saw him but as hard as it is your kids will get used it it and they have you dont think your bad mum for sending there daddy away think of it more as hes providing for his family that he loves and cares for it must be hard escpecially with christmas coming and him not being there to spend it with u and children but he will be thinking of u all and im sure he doesnt think anything bad im sure hes very proud of u the way u keep the family going while he is away and im sure he misses u all very much we are here 4 u hunni anytime xx

Thankyou. I just don't know what has come over me in the last few days (Since i have been feeling like this) I think maybe with Christmas coming up, that that is playing a big part of it aswell, as i have no family around me to go celebrate christmas wit, so it'll just be the kids and i christmas morning opening presents together, and not being able to be with family has really gotten me down, I'm not normally a whinging person, this has just been playing on my mind for a while!!

it must be hard but like you say,hes got to go were the money is.enjoy the time together,once hes home.it wont be forever,it will get you down.especially at this time of year,he must be down to.missing you all,be strong.were here for you.big hugs
