Must stop buying cookery books.I'm a bit like those women who buy hundreds of pairs of shoes except I buy cookbooks instead.
I know someone else who is like that! :whistle: :rotfl:
I could probably fill a whole bookcase just with my cookery books ... and I've just gone and ordered some more :shhh:"An Ye Harm None, Do What Ye Will"

Hi All
Very late on today. Been so busy at work. Did a fantastic crank call to one of my colleagues - so funny!
Not much to report other than I've been out reporting!
Hope all's wellComping, Clicking & Saving for Change0 -

Not much to say tbh as all my days could pretty much be the same day over and over again!. Im going to do Tuna steak for dinner this evening though with some seaweed sheets and veg rice, so boyf can like it or lump it. I got home from work yesterday and he had done absolutely nothing - he just sits at home playing on the computer and the cat everyday living the life of goddam riley, having a nice lie in, having a nice drink every now and again, and doesnt even bother to feed himself except for crisps and moans when dinner isnt quite ready yet. Ill be leaving him a note this morning to do some cleaning and get a bloody job.
Anyway, sorry to moan, im just tired and want some time off work so I can relax and do what I want to do and I never get that luxury anymore - its time he joined me in it quite frankly!
Have a good day all!
Jo xx
Hey Jo - sorry to hear you're having such an awful day!!!
Could you not perhaps just start cooking your own meals/doing your own washing etc. Perhaps that would encourage BF to help??!!!! I can totally understand where you're coming from!!
I hope things get better xx0 -

This sounds like a great idea! I remember one of my friends doing that when her OH wasn't doing anything to help around the house. She was a SAHM at the time with a very demanding baby.Her OH started coming home to find no tea ready, bed not made, washing-up not done, etc....Worked a treat!0 -

You sound like my friend's husband - I once said to my friend "I wish I had one of those". She replied that all her female friends say that!
kiwichick - :eek: at your little brother! Mine is the same age and if he got ONE girl pregnant I'd put it down to life experience and try to help out, but TWO... I'd have to think about a viable alternative to murdering him that would mean he could still pay maintenance :mad: I hope he realises that it's his duty to take responsibility for both of them.Operation Get in Shape

Hi
Just a quick hello today, as we have been very busy.
Jo, hope things get sorted out for you. ((()))
I went to visit my grandma today. No answer at the door, so we went round to the back garden & sure enough, there she was in the garage, trying to fix the up&over door which was blowing open in the wind. She's rushed (or as near to "rush" as she can manage) out there, without her walking frame & had totally exhausted herself with trying to shut the door & prop it shut with large planks of wood! Someone please tell her she's 97 & has osteoporosis!! On the other hand, I suppose I'd rather she ended her days up & doing things she wanted to do rather than stuck in an armchair being miserable.0 -

OK i am not having a good time at the moment.
1. My boobs have grown 3 sizes bigger
2. My tummy will no longer fit into my trousers
3. I felt sick all of last week and this.
If i did not know better i would say i was preggers. I have a coil fitted so the chances are very low.
Advise anyone.0 -

Do a pregancy test for peace of mind. Mistakes can happen with all forms of contraception.
You probably aren't, but the test will reassure you.
