    Beanie think I am burnt out..doing too much, stressed, feeling down and worrying and its all catching up with me. Not helped by the fact that dd was up at 6:45am this morning and I haven't stopped with her all day. I truely feel like a single parent at the moment :(

    You have got to talk to him Sal or go away on an impromptu holiday and let him cope on his bloody own!

    he must pull his weight?

    I know Buffy...today he got up at 10:45am swanned around a bit, did get DD dressed I admit, then said going to go into work to do my insurance claim (which Im not sure is true) got home around 3ish and did bits and peices to help. Im my own worst enemy really but it would just be nice if he got on and did stuff without having to be asked. Oh I dont know...

    I wonder if giving him a list of tasks to do - tell him right now you are tired and stressed out and worried you aren't coping. Ask him for help make him feel wanted??? is he that type of guy who likes to be needed?
