    Exam tomorrow so I will have to make sure I am prepared later. ie I actually have a bloomin pen..in fact i am going to make a list of things I need to take into the exam room

    Pen
    Pencil
    Ruler
    Peppermint aero (kind of a lucky charm thing! although I do eat it)
    Can of red bull!
    Headache tablets to go with red bull
    Tippex
    Brain!
    Hat
    Fingerless gloves
    scarf
    spare jumper

    It was really cold in the exam room in June and my lips were blue by the time I had finished the exam.:rotfl: god knows what it will be like in December..

    Morning all, I am completely fed up, how is it you can go from thinking everything is la-di-da and happy to considering moving out and going it alone in the space of 12 hours :( :mad: I really try not to moan about OH on here, well mostly because he is usually great but sometimes I just can't pretend everything is fine.

    Hi Daph! thats life really. I do go from loving the pants of my O.H to wanting to kill him....literally within the space of five seconds and back again. And thats not hormones that him!

    I have to ask myself what life would be like without him sometimes, the answer is inevitably very boring and much as I like a quiet life it may be too quiet. I also cannot ever imagine living with anyone else:o

  • Morning all,
    Still stuck with the kids at home-we're on the mend but still not great. Last night I was coughing in bed and somehow managed to pull a muscle in the back of my arms and it kills! I still can't figure it out...

    I have to get the house clean today and run a thousand errands today...wish me luck!

  • morning all. Been awake for hours as OH fell asleep at just after 8 last night so was up around 6 banging and clanging.

    Got a horribly busy day today.

    Am currently working on putting together a 4 hour session on presentation skills for next monday. I also have to take Charlie for 2 walks today, pop to asda for my bits for my cookery class tomorrow, wash up, then go to the one off cake decorating class which is tonight.

    No chance of doing any AQA today, OH reckons he will be back a bit later on to do some decorating which is good, but means he will be under my feet - 'where's this', 'come and hold this', 'go to B+Q for this'.

    As its the 1st December.........

    Good Morning everyone, I am off work sick this week to try and give myself chance to get over this flu thing. Just me, my laptop and the cat for company...........bliss:D

    DD I quite often go through the whole "Hate my Husband and want to leave" thing, I suppose its because the people we love the most can bring us the greatest happiness and the greatest misery when things are not going well.


    Like Sammy though I cannot imagine sharing my life with anyone else, even though he is a thoughtless !!!!!! some of the time...........but also a loyal and loving man.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

  • Thanks Sammy :o my computer is all weird (I'm at work) I can't see pictures, smilies, avatars, or thanks/quote buttons! Maybe I'm using the internet too much :eek:I do love him and I know that it's just 'stuff' that gets annoying but his attitude sometimes - well it is like I am just a big inconvenience. But then I do feel bad - oh, all this is about is getting out of the house on time in the morning, trivial really, but the way he speaks to me - he is usually a gentlemen and I can be screaming in a fight and he'd still enver insult me personally but today it was just like I was a piece of !!!!. I guess he is stressed - he has a LOT of pressure at work - but I work too, and I'm the only one who gets up with the baby at night, I suppose I just feel unappreciated, a drain, not contributing enough. It's a change of balance when you've got children I suppose.I just bought a small pack of custard creams and a latte to cheer me up :)
