    I could tell you what i was really thinking and feeling about him but the page would look like this

    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Put it this way.....Rosepink's word for idiot is probably the nicest thing I could say about him. Instead I will tell you that I like my hair, I didnt go mad - I had a lot chopped off the length a while ago......just before I met you Toots! But it was quite thick and very long layers so hard to keep straight all the time. I got her to chop the layers a bit shorter and thin it out and reshape the fringe etc but the length is basically the same.

    Went for a sunbed and to the gym for a bodypump class too. So the only thing I have achieved on the list for today is time for ME!!!! :rotfl:

    The contents of two handbags are all over my bed and the contents of one make up drawer is on top of my chest of drawers! I will go throught these contents later with a glass of wine I think. Am going to get work stuff ready for tomorrow so i dont have to do it all later tonight. Will need to figure out what littley is having for tea too! :confused:

    I was a bit apprehensive about going back to work toots, because he works there but he told me earlier today not to worry about it because he's taking the rest of the week off to study for an upcoming exam. He'd clearly forgotten he'd told me that his ex is in having an operation............no doubt he'll be rushing off to hold her hand - the exam is four weeks away, yet he needs to have these days off specifically. Righto! :rolleyes:

    I feel like an absolute mug. So at least I know i wont have to look at him tomorrow. The problem is when he does come back, im likely to fly over the room at him with a stapler and pummel his face to the desk with it!

    Not that id do such a thing being a lady'n'all......but you get the drift of my mood :rotfl:

    Anyway, Im sorry - im cluttering with chat.

    Will come back when ive actually done some flying, but not sure when that will be! xxx

    WM is on a cleaning cycle with all the cleaning cloths, and I've called the headhunter who emailed me on Friday (he's in a meeting, but I have at least left a message!).

    Obviously I'm not actually scared of toots or anything... :p but I thought I might get on with my list. Off to empty the bins...

    Glad you like your haircut jo - don't drink too much before sorting out the handbag/makeup clutter, as you may regret it later ;)

    As for the ex - it sounds to me as it you need to get a new high-powered, glamorous job that takes you away from him (preferably one that means you'll be paid more than him and have a more exciting life). And I know it's probably not much consolation, but you have reminded me why I don't date at work... :rolleyes:

    xxJoxx listen lovie, just because you trusted someone doesn't make you a mug. It makes him a liar. You can hold your head high in the knowledge that you've done nothing wrong. You've been loyal, he hasn't. He's the mug, not you. (((hugs)))
    Glad you like your hair by the way. :)
