5 OS Pleasures in your Day Today part 2

Evening all.

Frith - huge hugs to you. Keep your head high and remember that you're not the idiot around here - he is!

mhags - I didn't know you'd been quaked - I'm glad you're all OK and didn't even notice it.

1) The mog climbing into the bathroom sink this morning while I was trying to put my contact lenses in. I know he's back to normal when he starts being a nuisance!

2) Did a Reverbe - 20p sitting on the pavement, shining in the sun.

3) Found out that some work events I'll be helping out at over the next couple of weeks include a free lunch. No-one's quite sure why - in previous years we've got bottles of water and been grateful - but we're not complaining!

4) Getting home from work, rain-soaked and shivering, and changing into dry clothes. Bliss!

5) Spicy sausage casserole for dinner. It's one of my DF's recipes originally and never fails to make me think of him.

Have a nice evening, all.

Frith why are you wasting so much time and energy on a cheat and conman, which he is by entertaining you when his wife's back is turned? He's treating you both the same way, what a b@stard! :mad::mad::mad: As for his children - his son/s holds a knife to you son, puts him in a strangle hold, vandalises a public building by painting insults about your child, plus various other abuses. He does nothing about it and you still want to text him re being friends? Or even apologise? I'd have the police knocking on his door for such heinous activity. You're not thinking straight girl, get out there and rediscover the real world. The good'uns don't walk around with labels on but you should be able to see the bad ones coming a mile off after all Mr N's extraordinary activity. Shan't say any more on the subject because you know what to do. So put this strange episode behind you and go do it.

1. A day of no commitments, rare these days
2. Sleeping off and on til mid afternoon
3. Waking to feel a lot better, still coughing but chest not hurting so much
4. the rain coming just at watering time - that's a relief! (Cos I didn't get dressed today )
5. a bowl of fresh pineapple and melon for tea

Enjoy your evening

eta just realised I've done 2001 posts and got a silver medal to go with the bronze and gold

Evening all :wave: from a spinning Aberdeen. I think I might have to admit defeat and go to the doctors at some point

Frith - (((((hugs))))) I'll only add that you should take what he said about his wife with a pinch of salt...he would've been going for the sympathy vote....remember there are two sides to every story.

1) Quiet day at work
2) Put my CV in for an international assignment
3) More flirty texts from Mr B
4) Free slice of pizza at work for someones leaving do
5) Some more lovely nectarines


Hope you all had a good day. Hugs to those that need them

I might have to rescind pleasure #1 - I've just noticed that mog hasn't eaten his food today, and didn't even get up while I was cooking my dinner. Fingers crossed he's just got a bug or something and will perk up again soon.

Sorry, I know this is meant to be a pleasures thread but I had to share my worry!

ETA - Carolyntia - I hope you get over the dizziness soon - it's such a horrible feeling, isn't it?

Thanks CCP I'll be fine....it's like being on a rollercoaster :rotfl:

Has it been warm down south....maybe mog is overheating a tad? My mums cats always go off their food when it's warm....she's always complaining that they can't be bothered to get up for their dinner . Or maybe he's had a dodgy mouse

Thanks, everyone. :) I know you are all correct but sometimes I just can't see it. I do have a decision balance sheet magnetted to the fridge with the good and bad things about being in a relationship with him listed.

Good post, Sparrer. Just wanted to say though that his wife left him in August 2009. She lived locally at first and spent a lot of time up here helping out with the children. She then moved 200 miles away in - actually I can't remember when! But around spring 2010. And I started going out with him in August. So he wasn't seeing both of us at the same time. She has been a more frequent visitor recently - first seeing the boys and staying in a hotel (because it's such a long drive) but in the last 3 weeks, staying with MrN in the house. He swears he isn't seeing her and would never have her back and it may be that it is just a matter of childcare now I am not doing that for him anymore. I am getting a bit cynical though. A few weeks ago, he swore she would never stay overnight and before that, that he didn't want her in the house... Still, this is the woman he won't divorce and whose car loan etc he is still paying...

Anyway, 5 for today. (Tuesday).

1) Went to see my brother and helped him fill up the water tank next to his pigs.

2) We then took his dog for a walk.

3) Brother came up here to board up the broken window in the porch.

4) Made him some lunch and we played Mario Kart on the Wii (HOW old are we?!)

5) Boys happy after school and we played Lego.

6) Sister popped in and had some tea. I made a new recipe from Good Housekeeping. It was only macaroni cheese but I put some cauliflower in as well. The sauce was creme fraiche so a big cheat but tasty with mustard and nutmeg mixed through it.

7) Boys and I walked up to the local pub and back (5 miles).

8) Exciting news is that I brought my violin here from mum and dad's. I haven't played it since I broke my arm when I was 20. I have about 50% of the movement I should have in my left arm so I think my Four Seasons days are over. I just put it away at mum and dad's and it has stayed there for 15 years. :eek: But it's here now and I've thrashed out a few tunes. :j

9) Am now sitting in bed writing my profile for the Guardian's Soulmates... Blimey, it's difficult! Why has everyone else got a high powered job and recently been round the world?!
