Im calm enough to tell you now whats happened:
Ex OH has been texting me constantly, every day, telling me he misses me, hes sorry, am I ok for money, can I help you out? Blah blah etc etc. I have not seen him or accepted any help from him (thanks to you flyladies!)
He went to visit his sisters supposedly and has been away about 3 weeks now - texting me the whole time.
Well, I found out - he isnt at his sisters at all.... guess where he is??
I will give you all a guess..... Go on, have a go..... Lets see if any one else gets it!!Sometimes lurking, sometimes posting, but always flying

Decluttered food.. I now have 5 homemade dinners in the freezer for Jacob.. what are the bets that I end up with the empty tubs back here to fill up for him again?LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -
Hugs Jo, hope you are ok. He sounds like a [Rosepink’s word for an idiot] and I’m really glad you can see through him and know what he’s really like
Hi Jenny! Nice to see you! Redundancy and a written off car are a big deal, so don’t worry about moaning about it. It’s a tough and worrying thing to have to cope with
Hugs Johanne
Well done Miss A for making the lasagne! I can’t even do that!
Hugs Frodders
Orkney I’m so glad you found your photos! What a relief for you
Big hugs Helen and family, hope tomorrow goes well
Hugs Elly
1 Step, really sorry to see you go, please try and post even if you can’t read the thread. Hope things get better for you
I've done really well today, am quite proud of myself! Have done washing up and cooked dinner all by myself which I haven't done in ages as I haven't felt up to cooking. Very pleased! And dinner only cost a grand total of £3.40 for the two of us! LOL! We had mash (free pots from FIL), fish cakes (4 for £2), salad (£1.40) and DH had corn on the cob which was also free! Very :money:
I'm really looking forward to tomorrow as I have a chill out morning planned - got a dvd I want to watch and am going to potter about doing the LR floor while I'm watching it.
I've also started th WM and tidied up the kitchen floor a bit"Snowflakes are one of nature's most fragile things, but just look what they can do when they stick together."
