    funeral 10am for hubbys cousin-in-law.. I am a bit pee'd off about this actually.. hubby asked me to go with him so I booked Tiddles in nursery and paid for it then he decided he was getting a lift with his mother.. obviously I'd go with him.. but then his mother decided I wasn't going with them because his sister and her disgusting husband were.. so I'm, in effect not allowed to go.. which means when it comes to it I'll be the lazy piece of [EMAIL="!!!!"]!!!![/EMAIL] that couldn't be bothered to go.. despite the fact I had to get the children to school and SIL doesn't have any so could have set off earlier and got the bus or paid for a taxi as they are both working there is no excuse.. I am really upset and really pee'd off.. It would have been about £10 in a taxi which we don't have and if we'd have got the bus it would have been too late by the time we got there. No doubt this will all be my fault for being difficult and not having the money for a taxi.. everything is always my fault.. I hate families.

  • Morning All :hello:

    Firstly... Lady Liberty Thinking of you honey. Hope all is well, please post as soon as to let us know how you are. (((((hugs)))))

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Unpleasant moan alert... those of a squeamish disposition look away now! :rolleyes:


    Bloomin eck I'm so sick of poorly family! DD3 has had an unbelievable night. Starting with pooing in her pants at some point in the night, and then attempting to deal with it herself.... eeeeeeyyyuuuuucccckkkk!! Not pretty. First complete bed change at 3.15am. Followed by being sick at 4am, second complete bed change, and again at 7am, third complete bed change. Currently asleep on the sofa, having vommed three times on the sofa, her dressing gown, the blanket she's snuggled under and the cushions.

    She is NOT calm about being sick! She doesn't understand that she needs to keep her head still, and over the bowl. Not thrash about waving her head everywhere... *sigh* Some days life is bloomin' 'orrible. Poor baby, she doesn't understand what's happening to her. *sigh* :(

    Ahh well. On the up side my throat is no worse.... no better either, but no worse is good! Think I'm gonna just keep walloping multi-vits and juice. Thanks for all the good wishes. The site was SO rubbish yesterday that posting became an utter chore. So for all those that did, I salute you! :)

    Ok, better have a quick whizz while DD3's asleep.
    See you all in a bit.

  • Well
    Downstairs bins emptied
    Xmas wrapping box tidied
    Storage unit emptied and listed on freecycle (nice unit but three stacking boxes so you had to lift off top ones to get at others :confused:)
    So xmas presents moved to another drawer


    Realise I have a 'packaging keeping' habit (strong carrier bags, wrapping paper, foam wrapping, bits of bubblewrap, cardboard etc)
