    Long post!

    Seriously, it looks a lot of work but it's only now at the stage where I can even think about inviting people into the flat without being embarrassed. Not that it matters because the sofa is still covered in crap so although it's clean and tidy enough that I *could* invite people in, really I still can't.

    When I moved in (in December! We weren't living together when I got pregnant) there were two rooms that were completely unused because they were full of moving boxes that he'd just not dealt with when he moved in. We added my stuff to one of those rooms, making it even worse, and because I felt so rotten and we had so much wedding stuff to think about I only unpacked my winter clothes. The computer room was also half full of boxes, the kitchen was a disaster and the dining room was overflow from the other rooms.

    Then we got an infestation of bugs in the pantry. So we had to clear all the stuff from the dining room to bring everything out of the pantry, check it all to see if it had been eaten, and start Bugocausting. That's only just been finished today.

    The computer room I've been doing bits of every day, and at this stage it's a bit untidy but just about done. The living room has a box and a half left to clear out, then the rug can go down and the piano can come in and then we're done. At which point we can start panicking because the room I've not yet mentioned is full of pinball machines (literally, OH restores them, the room has about 12 full sized pinball machines in there). They need secure climate-controlled storage and we've not found anywhere. But that's the baby's room, and at the moment the baby's room is flatpacked and leaning against walls.

    Once the living room is properly finished and the computer room is tidy I'll relax a bit because it'll just be maintenance then till the pinball machines find a new home.

    Hugs for beenie and for Rhys, and whatever anyone else needs. I can hear OH crashing about in the kitchen, which is probably a good sign as I'm hungry like a pack of wolves.

    Yep he's definitely an @rsehole! I've not even said anything bad to him to provoke this nastyness, he's just a prize !!!!!!.

    I can't wait til he's gone, as much as it hurts. I hope i'll realise how happy i am without him and he is expecting me to beg for him to come back.

    Not sure how i'll handle it if he comes back begging ME though, he's done it before but it's usually me keeping us together, even though he's always been the one betraying me.

    Sorry for ranting :o

    Beenine, why the hell would he take wires out the tv? So he is punishing your LO as well as you? You are so better off without him! What a miserable little fud.

    ETA, DH says you have to go up and pee on his bed so he can take it and it'll stink of p1ss!

    Keep ranting. I keep refreshing the page to make sure you're still there so keep typing. Bit worried about you being on your own, do you have a friend nearby?

    That's exactly what i said, but he said he'd bring my old TV down and that i was a (insert expletive) for using my son against him in an argument?? :confused:

    Anyway he hasn't brought the TV down and i don't think i have the strength to.

    The V box is set up for HD too which means blind resetting it cos it won't play through the CRT. I found them on digital spy though so should be okat

    Beenie- I think you are being incredibly brave about all this. Your ex-Oh sound sincredibly immature, and ultimately will come out of this worse off. When are you planning on telling family/ friends about the baby? May be useful to have some support from them sooner rather than later.

    Helen- I've been getting randomly itchy nipples for while now!

    I think some of us should come round and perform a castration... I'd question whether he had any, but as your pregnant he must do. Bit small though I'd bet.
