I am trying to think of something constructive to say but can't.
The only idea i have is to say
by the way...as you haven't got a job I have got a full time one...you are now a house husband and as such are now fully responsible for all household chores, money, child care, christmas, and family responsibilities... what time will my tea be on the table...:rolleyes:
:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
What worries me is that he would be more than happy to do that....but I do that and WORK...and here is the problem!
I have just printed off a list of agencies in Bristol, I despare that I should have to be doing this ...NOT happyI'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change And breakaway. I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change and breakaway ....

Make him a sandwich with the contents of the vacuum bag!
...Linda xxIt's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.0 -
Nice curtains btw Linda......who needs men huh!
Precisely!
I love my new plum curtains with straight hems and matching light shade! :T
Looks nice and cosy and everything matches now.

Well done Linda, looking good!
Sal, Stu losing his job was one of the many final nails in the coffin that was our marriage. I was heavily pregnant, up to my eyeballs in getting a diagnosis for Ryan, grieving my Gran, running the home, decorating AND having to look for jobs for him, write CVs, fill in application forms, post them, and organise getting him to interviews dressed suitably, because he had just given up.
He has absolutely no idea what he put me through in the months before and after Natasha was born, and when I said, during an argument the other day, that it had put a huge strain on our relationship, he refused to acknowledge it and said it was because you lot had encouraged me to sleep around and have affairs....

Yep thats pretty much how I feel...He has applied and done stuff off his own back..just!
:T:T We are good that we have that much influence hey!I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change And breakaway. I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change and breakaway ....

Nice curtains Linda!
Does anyone know anything about migraines? I think I had one last night, I emailed my sister who gets them regularly but she said it didn't sound like hers did. Don't know what else it could have been though.
Elfen, what Shakespeare books do you need? I bought a couple for a course I'm not going to do now, you're welcome to them. I've got Hamlet, Othello and Henry V. If you need any just pm me your address.Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.0 -
Got the wrong Shakespeare book, had to go back and get King Lear and Macbeth.....got another one as it was 3 for 2 and got Sense and Sensibility. Knowing my luck it won't come up now lol.
<debates on the merits of telling Elfen that Shakespear never wrote Sense & Sensibility....>
or am i missing a point here....I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....(it's part of my charm!)0 -
I keep thinking about the M&S cards, but I've not given cards for the last couple of years, I've followed sister's lead in saying that instead of spending a couple of quid on cards it's better to put the money towards a nicer present. Although, she doesn't get presents either. If I get cards this year it'll just set the precedent again!Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.0
