    eating is overrated :D - watcha having?

    We were too full to eat at pizza express (and have you seen the price of their icecream!!!) so on the way home we bought icecream, toffee sauce, sprinkles and chocolate flakes to make our own sundaes. That's going to be tea as we had a later lunch...I give my children such a balanced diet!! xx

    Oh dear, bread emergency! I left the bread to rise in the airing cupboard, promptly forgot about it, and now the carpet in the bottom of the airing cupboard is covered in bread dough!!!!!!!!!!!! Another job for tomorrow methinks! I've sprayed it with carpet cleaner, but I think it'll take a lot of cleaning.... perhaps I'm not cut out for this baking thing.


    many many mnay many years ago I rememebr my mum making bread she left it to provein front of the log fire as we went of to church....


    when we got back it was covering an area about 2 meters square...

    I am assuming that DD is DH's from previous marriage and that DS [aged 8] is your son with DH???????
    If so, then I believe not only should you be fuming but also DH. In fact, I feel he should have refused to go.
    Yes its my step daughter, DS is ours and idolises his father and his step sisters and SB I have just calmed him down he has been crying for fifteen minites Gess who is not letting this go I am livid.
  • kassey I agree with vivw - Dh should have insisted you all went or none! as the others have suggested - you do something nice with DS - (((hugs))))

    Evening everyone.

    Today I have done absolutely nothing. I've had a very me, me, me day. And I've enjoyed it!

    But, normal service is now resumed. I need to think about dinner and then cook it. Then veg in front of the TV.

    Oh - welcome new people
    I am the leading lady in the movie of my life
  • Havent done any flying today!:o
    Have had no water, no heating and no kitchen!:eek:
    The kitchen refit hasnt gone entirely to plan, so the blokes are coming back again in the morning! The kitchen is unusable, no worktops yet and is soooo filthy I cant even tell ya!:eek:
    I got so cold that I even did some ironing to warm up!:eek: Shant be turning on heating until the guys have gone as there is no point when they have the back door open!
    Luckily kids will be spending the nite at their Dad's place, so they will be ok!

    Was hoping to be able to spend tomorrow cleaning and putting things back, but hey ho, best laid plans and all that!:rolleyes:

    Pigpen, I would have told the parents too. I drank at that age, I didn't live at home but I wouldn't have dreamed of taking from someone elses house.
    Penny hope your DS has a wonderful time
    Mudbath pleased you had a good and very MSE time. I agree sometimes it feels like MSE way isn't fun, but I have realised the other side of it now with being able to spend when I do want to
    g&b I think you should get your DH to give his bank permission to discuss his account with AnW'sMum and let her give them hell if he won't :D
    OJK I'm not married, have 2 children, smoke and drank under age :o sorry.

    Brief explanation of yesterday evenings upset etc, I can't explain on Facebook because DP will have one of his hissy fits. I've had an ex get back in touch, basically it all ended rather messy many years ago, I was told and pressumed he was a cheating shibag. I finds out 13 years later he didn't. It's quite a strange feeling, ever since then I've not trusted any males completely because of that, first person to cheat on me, I mainly wonder if I'd known if my choices since would have been different, if I'd have given myself less of a hard time over it. It's so weird 'talking' to him again even if it's online, really never thought I would ever speak to him again. I'll be honest last night I cried for hours, what ifs rattling through my head at a serious rate of speed but I also left that relationship into a situation where I was burgaled and attacked so memories of that came flooding back, we lived together, yes I was VERY young considering I moved out over 13 years ago from his house. We also upset a lot of people when we were together, including my parents, told you this was complicated, he was my friends ex aswell which never went down great. I also got told he was with me to annoy her which hurt, but he says isn't true. All together it's really strange, I don't know what I think and plan to avoid him until I figure what is what in my head. DP would just fly off the handle if he knew I'd even spoken to him, men don't realise women go through different emotional crap to them, I needed these answers but they were not ones I expected which has knocked me for 6 a little bit. Exs aside (If there was a pools on facebook I might win something!!) My Dad came over today, told me he's moving out of the house he shares with my Mam into his new GFs house in 4 weeks, that's all a bit weird too. Feel like I am on a bit of an emotional rollercoaster this weekend. Me and Dad have always been quite close (I moved out of home young because me and Mam clash but Dad was gutted) and he's moving about 80 miles away, not used to being that far away, I've never met his GF and think I will probably be too uncomfortable with it to visit him there. Pah relationships are gastly things.

    Right, emotional crap aside (DPs now gone to work so I can cry again tonight! :rotfl: ) like I said more productive day than I thought, high emotion times I do usually get more done. I have made dinner which has just been finished, got some B&J comfort food for afters defrosting a bit (my freezer makes it too stiff :o ) then I think it's bath/bed time for 2 hyper children who are annoying each other and me!

    I need my PJs and comfort food :o diet will have to wait.....
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:
