lol,MJM..yeah, I don't know that there is a muzzle big enough!

It's always the same with her...she seems to think that a certain amount must be spent - £200!!! - and isn't happy unless she has spent that amount.
Commercialism has destroyed the 'spirit' of christmas - I'm not talking about the religious side of things, I'm talking about the family get-to-together, the sharing of company and goodwill. Nowadays, it seems that people go into some kind of mental insanity, and have to spend thousands of money.
Why?

Sure, I wanna give my kids presents, they have both been good at school and (when they're with me, at least) are showing out to be good kids...but I DO resent the fact that, just because I can't match her 'generosity', she sees me as being a crap dad!

I mean, she's aready fucked me over by shagging my mate, fucked me over by running up loads of credit card debt (a contributary factor to my current financial predicament), spent our entire marriage by slagging me off and treating me like shit...now she waves her new boyfriend in my face and tells me that I'm not living up to my responsibilities as a father!

AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHhh..I am soooo fucking mad right now!!!!!
