hiya ladies
Sorry to all those who asked about my tattoo well its now done and its absolutely killing me.
The reason Ive not been able to walk with it is because its on my foot and because of the amount of work on it, it causes it to swell up like a brick.

I know it sounds mad to willingly do this to yourself but i like tattoos and the breaks nice too lol.

i done all my chores on monday it took 10hrs grrr and my lovely hubby has done all the dailies for me since tuesday so the house is still looking surprisingly clean lol

back to normal on saturday oh well it couldn't last forever lol

froddington

Tia - congrats :T sounds great!

mojt - don't know what to say except thinking of you and hoping it turns out alright

Today I have cleared my coffee table - well it's more like found the coffee table in, under, amongst the boxes, bags, piles of stuff!!! - done some ironing, and sorted the top of a bookcase.

Oh, and I went shopping with my dad and DROVE there and back with no problems Less than 3 miles each way but my arm didn't hurt. My car is now back at my house and it's great!!

Evening people

Have just caught up with the whole days thread so before I lose it all and have to retype it 3 times, I'll be back in a bit after i've copied and pasted it fr
Tag – we must be twins re the sunshine, I’m a different person when the sun shines. And oh dear about the [strike]doggie doodles[/strike] mud

Embb – I just opened a bank account for my DS for his EMA and duly sent off all the paperwork we had – just one sheet confirming name, address, and all bank details with a note explaining that that was all we were given. Its come back in the post today as not good enough so application not processed! DS has to go into the bank tomorrow to try and get them to do a letter confirming details, so try and get one before you send it off.

Sinderella – well done on the job offer

Eagerlearner – welcome. Just looked at your spreadsheet its brilliant

Vivw – Glad results were good, we’re waiting for DS GCSE’s next week. Loved the wedding stories as well

Tia – Massive congratulations, sending little gold mine vibes for you

Serena – Hugs for DS1

Chunky79 – congrats on the wedding plans. They can be such a rip off these days. We keep talking about it (only been together 12 years) and I fancy Gibraltar then if anyone really wants to see us wed they can pay themselves to come out and see us, and if they don’t then they were only up for a free party.

Hex2 – loved the patio comment

MOJ2 – Big hugs. You freely admit there were some issues but its unusual to defend with an attack and then disappear to stay somewhere else. My personal view would be that if not guilty you’d be fighting to stay – sorry. Really hope its not what you suspect.

Lilme – helloooooooo. Hope you had a good time

Vanilla - +ve news about Bo, keeping my fingers and toes xed for him

Poohbear – I’ve noticed my OH drinking more too, thought we’d gone away from the wanting/needing a drink every day

Froddington – great news about arm and car. Don’t overdo it though!
om word just in case dearest AOL (not) shuts down again


Another day at work today and home to find OH just finishing cleaning DD's pigsty. Then he washed, dried up and put away everything he had used before going to work :eek: . He did ask me yesterday if I had changed my mind about going to the party on Sunday - as if not he'd need to book somewhere to stay! Great so now all I am is the taxi :mad: . Today I think he might have worked out that he cant stay over Sun night as the car is booked in to get the alarm sorted on Monday and we still have to work out how I can get to work and back! Methinks he's being nice so that I Do change my mind and go, might say I'll only go on the condition that I have the drinks and he drives (not that there'd be any chance of that as he would not be able to be around his cousins and not have a drink) Sighs heavily!

Right guess I better go and do some flying before pigpen flies in from whatever she's doing (she's been quiet today - perhaps the dragon is sleeping :rotfl: )

I have two cats, who have the run of a 120 foot garden. Why,oh why, do they come in to use the litter tray?

Your cats have obviously heard the saying - Dogs have owners, cats have slaves!

I'm here... very stressed out and a lot of thinking to do. Doesn't help that I feel really ill and have a splitting headache. I'm off to bed. Night

Evening All.

Well finally got DD and DS of to sleep.

The issue that I have ha with DH related to money and never with other women etc.

When he had spoken to me today we haven't argued and we just spoke rational how we both feel (TBH something that we haven't done for a while-I can be quite aggressive).

I don't think that he blamed me for today but said that if I trusted thim then I would have believed him (which is true) and he wasn't she if she could handle it. I have told him how I feel too so we will just have to see how things go. :rolleyes:

Anyway thank you all for your hugs. It really means al ot. I don't really have many people I socialise with where I live so find it hard to talk about things except to my family and sometimes I don't think that they need the stress.

Sory for being such a misery.

soappie

Oh dear - there seems to be so many people with relationship problems at the moment that all I feel I can do is send the most humungous

:grouphug:

group hug to you all.

And reflect that, although I feel lonely occasionally, I'm glad I'm not in a relationship - that way I don't get grief.

I know that won't help you ladies who are suffering at the moment and I apologise. But, curiously, it does make me feel better...
