MSE Parents Club Part 8

Buttonmoons

I got my charger, yey!! Ok it is a slightly weird one, like a european one, but there is an adapter so it fits in my plug, and also the lead isnt very long, like the last one but hey ho.

Put my Xmas tree up last night, really wish I hadn't bothered, cats have had it down 7 times and Im sick of it, looks a right !!!!!!! mess!

Can't catch up, too many pages, but looks like SMS heating isn't workin? I feel for ya, every year since I moved into this flat, my boiler has messed up, heaters still worked but it stopped heating up water, and guess what? It's doing it again, I've turned it round to 90degrees and you can run a bath like that and just jump in, no cold water required. I can't be bothered phoning the council about it, it's bad enough phoning them to pay rent....which was more than I thought. Oh well.

Going away on Thursday - Monday and I DONT want to go, as Keira will be at home with OH, visiting a friend but I really want to back out because I cant be bothered, its close to Xmas, will need money, and my mum has to watch Keira on the Fri night and Sunday night as OH wants to do OT at work on the Sat.

But the weekend after that it's OH's work party which we kinda HAVE to go too, and yet again I'll need a babysitter for the Saturday. I feel like I'm lobbing her around, not that she minds, she loves going to stay at my mums house or whatever.

I JUST DONT WANT TO GOOOOOOOO, it's too long, I don't know why I agreed!

They won't understand if I bail out either as they went halves on the train fare.


I've not been well over the weekend, woke up vomiting on the early hours of Sat morning, and have had really bad stomach pains since then, can barely eat still. Oh yes and on the bus home from town yesterday, I was walking to get off the bus and the driver slammed the brakes on and my thigh went smashing into an arm rest, I was actually crying it was that sore, and Im just waiting for a nice fat bruise to appear!

Hope everyone is okay. I'm about to go microwave my cats as they just started punching my baubles again.

DH surprised me last night. His new shop is having a xmas night out on the 19dec...and our shop in TC is having their one on 20Dec(sun)...we both want to go but MIL didnt seem to keen to have kian stay over on a sunday...so probably means only one of us can go. so i'm sat on couch thinking bet he says he'll go and i stay at home with kian... but no, he said... if we cant get anyone to have kian or babysit late... you go!! i nearly fell of the couch!!! did not expect that!! so my christmas party dress may get worn after all!!

You never dated? Where did you meet your OH?

Expectations are high from everyone, but i've always put the girls first. At the moment though, prospects are looking pretty good, so i'm happy at the moment.

We met at college and were friends for nearly 2yrs before we got together

Jillie - its only the same day appointmants you can't use, it says you can use the apointment where they post the passport out within a week one - unless I've read it wrong?:eek:

It's not just dinner, it's the whole day :eek:

I like the idea, it's just the way it was dumped on me. I don't blame the girls, they are excited, but my friend should know better.

Hi all

Apologies for my strop, as I say, I am hormonal, tired, and going through a really, really hard time at the moment...I know nobody means to upset anybody on here, you are all lovely. It is me taking things the wrong way and being extremely oversensitive:o I will try and control my (very volatile) emotions:o

Anyway, still no idea when things are going to improve my end but I will get on with what I can.....off to smash up a stubborn wardrobe in a minute:rolleyes:

MOTM - I'm glad you had a nice time and if you do really get along and like each other I also see no problem with things moving along quickly:)

I moved in with dh 2wks after we got together (although not really 100% our decision) we then got engaged 2mths later and have now been together for 15yrs, married for 7yrs:D

Hope you get your heating sorted quickly SM

Buttons - glad you got your lead, and i'm not sure microwaved cat tastes very nice;)

A slow burner in comparison. You got there in the end and now have offspring, so all is good :T
