    hugs for carla :(

    Can you wait til he gets back and suggest some together time doing it then? We play carols and have a mince pie while we do it. I hope you can find some traditions that you and he both enjoy :)

    Why does he take his sister to tesco?

    I think Sami is right, as always!
  • Hugs Carla - I think my DH would love it if I got on with it on my own but I insist on putting on xmas music and singing along as loudly and as untuned as possible :D(well that what he says!) As Weezl said can you say about starting a tradition or something?

    Weezl - Quick question do you know where I can get pickling onions from :confused: I've tried the grocers in canton and they only sell them in 5kg sacks and I end up wasting so many, I'm only after about 1kg?

    his sister doesnt drive, and robbie andhis dad brought our tree and her a tree home, so she went to fetch the decorations and her lights had blew or something!??

    runs in to rant to ppl who listen to her....

    i absoloutely HATE my OH sometimes.
    He boruht the tree home = yay
    He got (only half) the decorations down fromthe loft = small yay
    As soon as he brought them down he dumped them and announced he was taking his sister to tesco. GGRRRRRR.
    I ALWAYS am left to put the christmas tree up on my own since we lived together, and i was brought up as it being a family time. im emotional. and crying.......am i being irrational!? part of me says yes, part of me says no. i dont know???

    I always have a romantic notion of the tree going up like a scene from the movies with all the family happy and smiling.
    In reality, DD (13) always acts like a brat, OH gets bored and snappy and I get !!!!!! off with the pair of them.
    I put the tree up yeterday, just me, and the wee man helped from his bouncy chair.
    When DD got in from school then when OH got in from work they were both delighted at how nice the tree looked.

    First, :grouphug:

    Second, :mad::mad::mad:

    Third, what Weezl said - why is he taking his sister to Tesco? And it might be a good idea to suggest you make it a family time with mince pies and carols and such like - you could have the first mince pies of the year while doing it :)

    Silly doctor AM - of course you can get tonsillitis without tonsils!

    Yay for showers Sami!
