    Toots, that lunch time incident sounds terrifying, you poor thing. Glad you are ok now. Big hugs to you

    Big hugs Sexymouse xx

    Hugs to all with the BD, I’m the same, going to get my lightbox on once the chair next to it dries (knocked a whole glass of water on to it)

    I feel like Valli's son today! Went to get dressed this morning as was dropping DH at his parent's place, and discovered that the only two pairs of trousers that fit me are both in the wash! Eeek! So I had to go out in jeans that I couldn't do up with a long top over! Just walking to the car nearly made them fall down, so I couldnt' get out at PIL's to have a chat with them, just dropped DH off and drove off! Must have given the neighbours a bit of a shock if they saw me trying to get back into the house when I got back, they were hanging halfway down my bum when I got out the car!

    Need to do stuff today, got to try and shake this BD off.

    HHC @10:10 - please join me if you can! Jinky - you can do this one with me!

    Morning- I want to say a MASSIVE thanku to everyone.. I would of normally just cried and backed dwn as being scared of him leaving. But this time I had u all confirm to me that it wasnt right an that was just based on what happened last night. I always end up confused as to whos fault it really is( mine or his) but u lot are fantastic & u helped so much. I dnt haveany friends in 'RL' as we moved here as I gt preg & i was v. ill & aftewr birth i got PND.
    So all my old friends have sort of fizzled out.
    Anyway he stayed last night- his stuff is still all packed- and he was gone when woke up( hes not wrking 2day- hes a postie:rolleyes: so is on the 'picket line' at god knws wt time.) then all his wrk mates are going to golf- planned when they got the strike date. So he'll be there all day, then gets bk/ gets changed & his off 2 his occaisional wrk at the legion a few towns away. I will be asleep when he gets bk & he will be gone to the postie wrk when I wake up in mrning- then after that he does footie every sat & I'm going to mums 2moro(looking after my bro)- its dwn by coast so hr& hlf away.. Will nt be bk til Wed.
    I think it will be good as I will have time to think. I get v. confusedbecause hew can be so lovely.. but also cn be v. nasty- he has NEVER been pysically violent & never will be. Hes just v. v. nasty sumtimes:o

    Anyway THANKU so much again, all so lovely towards me.

    *dribbles in under the door*

    Morning all xxx

    Just the 2 oldest girls at school today, the others all have teacher training... which snatches a thought from my head.. SexyM.. Get in touch with the union over half term, if you are not in school today do it now.. they them have a week to look at your problem without the pressure of you being in school. You can (according to our head) request external assessment.. if that is worth a try.

    I have a nail appointment at 11am so will be getting dressed and dawdling off there shortly.

    I AM getting the wallpapering sorted today, other than feeling a bit battered I'm fine.. my back is really aching though.. perks of hanging by ankles, lol.

    The carpet hasn't been delivered yet but is meant to be coming today so hopefully we can get that down over the weekend and get her bed etc in.. obviously the ikea trip loosely planned for today is now postponed somewhat as I am NOT taking 5 children with me.. mainly cos we can only fit 3 in the car!!

    So... todays list..

    Washed
    Clothes
    Nails
    last 3 strips of wallpaper (one and 2 halves really)
    Carpet delivery at some juncture
    WM
    DW
    TD
    Chillies packed off to dads
    Ring DS3's and DD3's friends.. one to ask if there really is a party tomorrow to which she ha sbeen invited.. she had a proper invite she claims she lost so has a hand written note so I thought it best to speak to the girls mum, at 8 they are quite prone to inviting each other to imaginary parties. DS3 just wants his friend to come play today.. I think I can handle that, he isn't a bit of bother.

    I have a few bracelets to stuff back on my arm too that I can't manage on my own..

    Oh.. and I need to ring the insurance company about my cheque... again!

    DD2's room list

    wallpaper finished
    gloss door (2nd coat of one coat paint after undercoating door!)
    carpet down
    Blind up
    voiles/window dressing
    noticeboard up
    mirrors bought and installed
    cupboards and mirrors bought and installed
    Bed in and made
    bed net thing up
    Duvet cover bought :s
    rug
    LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14
    Hope to be debt free until the day I die
