I'm 33 and for the 1st time in my life I dont have my daughter for crimbo. We split up in June 'ish and I got used to the idea then. 7 years ago I had to get used to the idea Christmas isn't about me any more its about the kids. I'm fine with it, I got used to the idea 4/5 months ago now. I have a new Gf now but at the moment it dosent look like I'll be waking up xmas day with her or her girl either (not going into why, your not intrested anyway). I could have mine for a lil bit xmas day before giving her back at 2pm to go to Mum in laws after Gf's girl has gone to her Dads but instead I will probably leave her in her home with her Mum, bro and Sis and Neice. I think her xmas day will be a lot more warmer that way rather then over to mine for 2 hours or so and then back and drop her off.
She'll have her xmas day at my house (5 mins away) on Boxing day probably, I left all her toys and stuff at hers when I got shoved out and this Christmas Santa will be filling my house with toys for her along with hers.
Its long winded above but I dont give a toss if I get jack shit for xmas, no disrespect to anyone, but fuck ya ipod nano, fuck ya new shoes, ya xbox 360 and ya iphone. Im having High school Musical dolls, Hannah Montana dolls and toys etc, junior scrabble, make up and loads of girls things which Dads just love playing with lol.
Ive gone and chatted with the ex and told her nuff's enuff, not more slinging mud at each other or having a go, Im quite laid back and dont argue (I have to pay £120 a month for her car, loans in my name, cars in her name and I now finally know theres fuck all I can do to change that) but that may be the best gift I give my daugther, and her kids from previous, thing is: Won't cost me a penny.
