MSE Parents Club Part 4

Buttonmoons

I have a pokey 2 bed flat, that seems to be infested with these minging beetles, thankfully the cats seem to have developed a taste for them, so I rarely see them now, though I found one in my brown sugar and almost screamed my face off.

I'd love to move, somewhere with a garden preferably, I don't like the schools round here for Keira, so if we must, we'll probably give up the flat and move in with OH's parents (they do have a massive house) as the school there is much better (small country primary)

The primary near me is the one I went too as a kid, and it's awful, still is! You get bullied for the slightest thing as it's quite a "rough" area, so if you are in anyway different, they flock for you, and DD speaks quite posh, everyone comments on it, plus she is 1/4 asian, and that area isn't exactly accepting to other cultures.....seen it so many times! They beat up the polish kids because erm they are polish!?

Really lucky, that car is a mess!

We are going to get around to converting the loft soon, but until then it's 3 kids in one bedroom. Still, I do like my wee house.

She was 3 in April Caz, but seems willing with cajoling to go for a poo on the toilet. Think the prune juice will be getting tunnelled down her neck tomorrow if one doesn't appear in the loo!

do you think she needs to go? some people go days without going and then a few times in one day, my LO charlie is like this but likes to play with his much to my disgust:mad:

im on the bidding system on the council for a new bigger place but its gonna be at least a year or 2 x

New system is pants! Part of me thinks that them letting people like me buy made the stystem fall apart but part of me is glad as selfishly I did well out of it. I stoopidly thought that they would re-invest the money I was paying into the housing system, naive or what!

Yeah she maybe is one of those people, I'm a bit like that, but I take movicol so the doctor doesn't put a camera up my butt

Eww, why does he wanna play with it? I remember my cousin connor did that for a while, even painted his mum a nice picture with it on the bathroom walls.....

me and Chris started out sharing a 2 bed 1st floor flat with another couple, then moved into a 2 bed semi just before we got pregnant with Jasmine. Worst thing about that house was that it was 5 doors down from my in laws :eek:
We are now in a 3 bed semi in one of the nicest areas of my town :D

Like you tara, I'm proud of what I have achieved. I bought my 1st house at 19, Chis has been in and out of work since I was 20 because of his health, so pretty much all of the cost of running that house and being able to upgrade to my 2nd house was done by me working my a$$ of to make sure I made the most of our money. Not many people my age can say they have done it on their own :T
