2nd child flown the nest to uni. All settled and happy.
Me on the other hand, trying not to cry in the Indian take away. There are times being a lone parent proper sucks. #mealforone #loneparent

New bookage for a change of season. From cooking for four to two and in two years just me is a learning curve as I can’t stand food waste. #FlyingTheNest #LoneParent #SelfCare #LoveFoodHateWaste

Meal prepping for teenagers lunch boxes for this week. I’m away for 3 days on a course. They have lunchable style boxes so can just grab a wrap, cheese/meat and veg in each section, bag crisps and go. Saves time, cheaper than pre packed and great for exam revision grazing #loneparent

In today’s my teens are lush… Laura cleaned the defrosted fridge freezer (one of my pet hate chores) and Grace put all my Easter craft boxes away and cleaned the hallway so I could have an early night after all the driving in the last couple of days. Team work. #LoneParent

Have sent in WinP abstract for a CTF research day. One of those moments that the win was actually feeling confident enough in my own academic voice to send one in. Anything else is a bonus. I’m so chuffed to be on this journey, I don’t take it for granted. #PhDlife #loneparent #workingclass

One of the things that hits you like a brick after 10 yrs loneparenting is the stark reality of a quickly emptying nest and lack of socialising over the years. So I’ve joined a queer women’s book club. I’m going to go for the 1st time in May. The book choice is really good. #loneparent

When the kids are not here my eating goes haywire as I don’t stop & cook like I do for them. Remembering to feed myself like I feed them is a hard lesson I’ve learned as a #loneparent I deserve lovingly prepared home cooked food too! #SelfCare #LifeAfterDivorce #TenYears
