I was unpacking DH suitcase after his meeting and found info about how to put on a condom. I confronted him about it and he says doesn't know anything about it must have been left in the room from last people (?) and he picked it up with his clothes.
He has been home and we have talked about it and told me how I don't trust him ( I do have issues with trust) He has now gone round his dad to think about us.
Don't know what to do. He says that he doesn't know if he can stay with him if I don't trust him.
And I never betrayed his trust, nor was I unfaithful. Take care.Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016

Jackielesley I can totally relate to your dilemma with the cat being outside then coming indoors to use the tray. We have that with our cats, well when they go out that is
We have lived with it for over 20 years now with various cats it has just become part of the house, the litter tray!! Can't change it as the little cat doesn't even go outside, even when the door is wide open. So she still needs to use a tray.
Now if I could just get the geriatric (20yrs) to stop using my top stair as her own personal poopy place.. she widdles in her tray but refuses to use it for anything else. Even when it is freshly cleaned..grrr!! The other two are fine, they go in their trays no trouble..but her..cantankorous old moo that she is..lolMortgage Free as of 20.9.17Declutter challenge 2023, 2024 🏅 🏅⭐️⭐️

hugs mumofjusttwo I hope you and DH manage to get things sorted out.
I haven't been here this week. I went away on Sunday to stay with relatives to try to get a different/better perspective on things.
DH has started drinking more again and whilst it isn't a problem in some ways it is financially. I scrape and save and he blows it. I know he needs to see mates and the pub is where he finds work too.
DSs were being a pain in the ++++ They were just abandoning things everywhere. They were staying in bed all day too.
Now I am back I can see that they are just young and need more guidance. Or a good kick. And DH just needs to realise that he needs to restrict his drinking to one or two pints. The police too might be interested if he continues to be tempted to have more than one. Watch this space .. as they say. We don't think he is an alcoholic but are not sure.
If things don't improve I might need to go away again. I can't talk to him as he comes home too drunk to talk to! Why am I not happy with the fact that he does the washing, vacuuming, puts out bins, washes up, empties dishwasher, makes me tea every morning, etc., etc.,business mortgage £0))''(+ Barclay's business kitchen loan £0=Total paid off was £96105 PPI claimed and received £13527

Cats and litter trays! dont get me started on that one. I left the greenhouse door open for air, and guess what, find cats poo in there, !
Cat 2 has been to the vets and is offically deaf, having had the vet clap her hands at her and she didn't flinch, very scienctific! but kind of guessed she was.
Both cats have now been wormed and frontlined and now both upstairs well away from us and scowling!!
Had pasta bol for dinner it was yummy.
