BOB'S Cunning Plan

boredofbeingathome

Glad you had a good day Pepe..would it have anything to do with a certain person being back?;)

London is always full of idiots on the road..i am surprised anyone manages to get around sometimes..

I tend to weeble at mo rather than wobble:rotfl:

I do take the sofa over..as he hogs the bed and snores like a pig on extra snorty stuff!Hence why i need sleep but he also takes offence at the fact i have to get sleep..can't figure it out.

I appreciate Beanie too we should all have appreciation badges.

Yeah we all need appreciation badges.
Its such a simple thing & makes such a difference but so many peeps dont get it.Sigh.

I am seeing Iustina daily, but like it was before we........:D .We both have so many complications that we realised it was doing our heads in!
I cant live in London, she has to stay there because of work situation so?

Tbh, things have improved at home because of changing attitudes. Pm if you want Bob......

No fool like an old fool;)

Hi Bob

Sorry you're down.... and unappreciated. I certainly appreciate you! This is the first thread I've headed to when I logged on just now. Yikes at the snow .... here, there are a few rainstorms, but I did get half an hour out in the garden - no more dog poo! Throwing a quiet wobbly with the neighbour seems to have worked, for now! More cutting back, and putting the strongarm on the ivy that wants to take over the top bit .... must plant stuff! must plant stuff! Do you know what I can plant that provides ground cover in the shade? Thats not ivy? Next time I'm out there, I'll do some more on the little veg patch to be.

Sorry to waffle. Anyway, hope DD is back soon from college, and you can admire the snow together - thats a lovely image, actually. Enjoy while you can.

Have you had a 'next doors dog poo in the garden prob' Karma?

We had that with a German Shepherd poo-ing in on the lawn....and then he brought his dog as well!:rotfl:

I am just a touch down, possible Post Flu/stinky virus aftermath..kids appreciate me and my friends do and of course lovely folk on here..although i can't virtually iron:rotfl: I don't know what happened..it just all poured out:o
Glad you got the dog mess sorted..we have some neighbours like that as well:mad:

Lol at Pepe though:rotfl:

The snow is *beautiful* and even though we live fairly close to Mway the noise is muffled and is very quiet always think of 'Frost at Midnight ' poem in this weather:D Before it went dark we were watching a Robin just hopping about in and out of the bushes, was so serene.

I will be more upbeat as week goes on. Promise..dibdibdib:D

possibly the being down might have something to do with lack of sleep too Bob? Hope you are feeling a bit more up soon. I came home early because of the snow where I work but there's none here - there was enough left on the car to throw at DS when I picked him up though!!!:rotfl: :rotfl: He protested that there's no wonder he always has a cold when that's the way he's treated! awwwww....:rolleyes:

In_Search_Of_Me

aww sorry you feel tired and unappreciated me lovely! We lova ya even if your oh isnt able to see how fab you are - we do! Shame we also cant give real hugs down t'internet...big squidgilscous one coming your way and beautfully groomed bob sends a squeak (he does squeak but usually when he's indicating his displeasure at being brushed and washed...and also jus before he goes to bite me!!)...hamster kebab anyone...free protein but alas lots of bones for not much meat! Sorry off one again. I suggest you wanct this weeks come dine with me - one guy is SO ridiculous (carpet man) that you cant not laugh in incredulous hilarity at what a tw** he is!!
Home all night of you want a natter/moan/offload...either that or can recc going outside and shouting lots of expletives quite loud...feels fab...re oh and his money unsure what to say - maybe if he wants to act like he's 5 then let him but must be incredibly frustrating. Makes me realise now that I couldnt go out with someone carp as I used to be with money...the thought of all that stress - not much fun is it...hang in there - youre doing great...bits are rubbing off on him but can understand why you feel hacked off as must feel like uphill all the way...anyway here if I can help...

Thanks Beanilou, i just thought i sounded like a bitter old bag then..but i meant every word!Surprising when you write it down just how much you supress stuff at home. I suppose i am mad because i have had the cold shoulder all weekend for daring to suggest he take a long hard look at his budget and put as much as possible onto his 0% card Oh and i am in the wrong for trying to get some sleep as well..Sometimes i just can't win and he does my head in. Bitter old bag alert again..lol

If you get into a cycle of "I don't praise him because he doesn't praise me because I didn't praise him because he didn't appreciate me...etc..etc..." it becomes rather messy and often bitter. It's best to go back to the basics:

He ironed. Do you want it to happen:

a/ More often.
b/ Less often.

Having decided that - which one of:

1/ Praising him.
2/ Not praising him.
3/ Slagging him off.

is going to increase the chances of you getting what you want?

Z - one word from me - Pah !
