  • mumoffour77 Oh how awful for you, and the LOs. As if you don't have enough on your plate. It makes me want to spit.... thieving little sh*ts. :mad: :mad: I don't know what to say to you, other than that I'm so so sorry, and furious on your behalf. I could cheerfully rip their testicles off.

    That's blooming horrible for you all.

  • My house is a tip, the windows are all blackened and its just generally a mess, I havnt done a thing, and I really cant get motivated......Honestly, i dont want to do it!! CID are bringing a counseller to talk to the kids and I, and then they have asked LO if the burgular touched her or told her to be quiet, She says he didnt even know she was there, and she didnt see his face.....which is really annoying her!!! The police told her she was so very very brave and she just said i was so scared mummy!!

    Oh Mumoffour, that is awful, especially as you were in the house when it happened. Have a big hug from me, and give one to your LOs too, especially that brave DD of yours. hug.gif
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

  • Pigpen So too to hear about your sister... that's blooming rubbish too. Poor girl. She's in my thoughts, and I'm sending positive vibes her way.

  • Sarah, Katt and froddington, thank you!!

    Im going to take the kids out for a treat at the weekend, just to show them that we can have fun.....and laugh at the burgular, as he cant get us down and he will not ruin our family unit and strength!! We have made emergency plans, for this happening again, also fire escape route and that seems to have helped the kids as they are involved in our safety and they have realised that the things that were taken were meaningless, and can easily be replaced, life cant be replaced!!

    mumoffour - *Huge hugs* How awful!!!

    Pigpen - thinking of your sister...and you just reminded me that I need to change the battey in my scales...if I can find where I put it last week when I bought it :o:rotfl:

    Been to Asda - bought too much and haven't done anything else except put the recycling out, spoke to mum on the phone and had lunch :o Best shift myself with some studying...time to put the laptop on and this computer to sleep! :wave:

    Oh and my pegs don't all match but I do peg clothes in a certain way and have to have a pair of matching pegs for each item. And socks have to be pegged out in pairs (with the same colour pegs of course)!! Should I be worried :rolleyes:
    Here's another one Valli that needs just a little tweak. ;)
