            Johanne hugs hun. Make the bed - go do it now. When sarah sleeps later go get in it and enjoy. Wash one cup for a cuppa and have that as a reward. Tomorrow is another day.

            Thanks for all the messages really appreciate them. I thought i was just being unreasonable 
 i cant make the bed cos hes currently in it! He started back at work last night on night shifts so will be in bed for the next 4 days and working for the next 3 nights - we only see him for an hour a day when hes on nights and thats while hes getting ready for work (except today when hes getting up early to watch the liverpool match on tv :rolleyes: )
 He hasnt made the bed... because hes not been sleeping in it instead hes been sleeping on the sofa for the past week! Not because ive made him btw... because ive been going to bed and hes sat up late watching cage fighting, football or other random tv whilst surfing the net and falls asleep i come down in the morning and find the table full of beer cans and sweet/chocolate wrappers. So obviously has a jolly time once im in bed. 0 0

            I couldn't change the bed today, coz the cat was on it, so I made it round the cat, that soon moved him!!
 I would put the clean stuff near the bed for when your OH wakes up, and ask him to do it!!
 Lazy men, I think all flyladies should go on an away day together, and leave them to get on with it, ~~~Breast Cancer Now 100 miles October 2022 100 / 100miles

            Jo - tell him if he can afford to be having his own little party every night, he can afford to pay for a cleaner for an hour a week to help you keep on top of things!NST #10 Steps 7K 2/30 10K 2/12 5 a day 3/30 NSD 0/20

            Hi Greenbee - you ok? no posts?
 Busy... work has been frantic (snow didn't help either), and now I have to get my garage & utility room sorted. Meant to get up early and do some stuff this morning, but failed, so have been to reflexology, put the DW on and that's about it. Now trying to decide what order to what chucking out it... I just really resent having to throw stuff away, but I've heard that the basingstoke tip is good as they recycle 80%, so might go there instead of my normal one!0

 Im trying not to! Hence why i take over (do tell him to stop it) and then if he doesnt storm off downstairs... i take sarah downstairs instead. Basically when hes like that i make sure shes out of his way and with me. Even if like the other night it meant i only got 2 hours sleep as i sat with her downstairs till she went back off (but i was too wide awake then)
 I have told him if it continues hes out the door.... infact hes on a warning that if he doesnt change ALOT of things by Christmas he best find somewhere else to live. 0 0

            I've just gone through the Tesco till receipt from my shopping and compared the products with till receipts from this time last year. This particular week's shopping cost me 8% more yesterday than this time last year.
 Can you tell it's so wet and cold and miserable out there that I can find nothing better to do? I really must get a life!I am the leading lady in the movie of my life
