    Morning all. I'd love to adopt your toddler. At 31, i wish i had children. Its even getting to the stage that if i didnt have the money problems i've caused myself i would gladly be a single mum.

    Try to remember how precious he is even when he's a pain in the backside. I desperately hold on to what people tell me.... "you'll meet someone", "there's plenty of time" to be honest it feels like the time is running out.

    Oh dear that wasnt very positive was it. Be back later lol

    Morning all.

    Thanks for the offer kp but think I will give the toddler a miss thanks.:rotfl: :rotfl:

    Mine never used to stay in bed late either now getting them out of bed is a mission. :rotfl:

    Mind you dont get the evenings to myself any more so swings and roundabouts I suppose.


    Hope the ga meet went well cc and they didnt give you any stick for the doughnuts.

    Worked a late shift last night,:eek: was hoping to lay in this morning but nope.:mad: 8.00am and didnt go to bed till 3am either.

    That will be me asleep later when with Mr 4x4. ( not that he is boring:D ) Or the phone will ring `can you do the late shift for me please`:eek: oh well extra funds.

    Better get off the puter and do some house work I suppose.:rolleyes: Cat pestering for his breakfast. He is such a fat cat on a diet as well. :rolleyes: Bet there is a neighbour sneeking him some grub.:p


    Messy
  • KP - can't be worse than my cat on a keyboard. When I'm on the laptop Thomas will just walk right across the computer. Just like it's not there. He once managed to switch of the wireless so I couldn't get online. I was not amused.

    Messy - cats just don't seem to get the diet thing. Ours are all fatish, but still seem to think that sitting by their bowls and meowing will get them fed.

    Well we picked up our girls yesterday, sorry no photos yet. They seem to have settled down nicely. They make a lovely chirping noise.

    Later

    Afternoon all. Bit more sunny in myself since this morning.

    GA was great last night. Still feel a bit crabby through lack of ciggies tho. SPent an hour crying this morning just because i wanted one so badly. I feel silly now but it seemed so important this morning.

    Have had a lovely day otherwise, my friend from suffolk has been here, we went to pizza hut for lunch which was a real treat for me. Popped into tesco and bagged a pair of lovely tan leather ballet pumps for £3. less than a packet of smokes. Bought some more nicotine gum and got £1 off using the vouchers in the ceauty panflet. Also got some more cleanser and toner. Just too much of a bargain n ot to grab at 28p a bottle... have enough for a year now lol

    Off to the pub for a few tonight. Sorry for being grumpy this morning kp. was listening to the brats scream and whine in pizza hut and it reminded me how bad it can be looking after a toddler. xxx

    have a good evening everyone.

    Hey no need to apologise I once felt like that myself. Was tempted to drive round and try and find where you lived though to drop him off! Oh and he loves Pizza Hut shame I hate it! Mum is having him tonight as I am just wiped, he's had me up every morning between 5.30 and 6.30 this week and with only 5 hours sleep last night I just couldn't take any more - nice early night tonight and lay in tomorrow should do the trick.

    OH is doing my head in as well but I cant be doing with trying to explain it all now. He is coming to Isle of Wight with me next week (Allegedly) But I think I'm about to make him a cash offer for a quick divorce - any advice welcome but I'm hoping to offer him 5K and get him to sign a release saying he won't make any more claims on me. I don't want him touching my house (which he has never paid for but I've used equity to pay off his debts) and deffo don't want him touching my Mums house which I half own (inherited from my Dad). He isn't really that kinda person but who knows who he will end up with in a few years time. I will also agree not to claim anything through CSA for DS - frankly the pittance I would get out of his pittance wages wouldn't buy DS a McDonalds every week and OH is never going to earn good money whereas I always will.

    Oh enede up longer than I expected again!

    Hi all :wave:

    I picked up Urbs yesterday and we did make it to Chester ~ she walked my legs off :eek: I was shattered by the time I got home but we got some fabulous bargains and some very pretty irresistable knick knacks :o Now we just need to go back and visit all the shops we didn't have time to go in to :D

    Had a weird kind of day today, tired and a little fed up ~ went shopping for some work clothes and couldn't find a thing to fit, that looked right or suitable :( Oh well, probably better for my bank account that I didn't buy anything!

    Good luck with it all KP ~ it took me five years and a lot of money to finally get my divorce through last November. He didn't get any money from me, but it cost me a lot in lawyers and eventually baliffs to get him to sign the papers. It was worth it though, just for my peace of mind. I've never taken a penny from him, I just wish he would pay his children a little more attention :rolleyes:

    It has bucketed down all day here ~ great weather for ducks ~ our poor rabbit is sat in the middle of the back lawn absolutely soaked, I have no idea why he doesn't go in his hutch :confused: daft thing :rotfl:

    Hope everyone's having a fun evening :D

    Philippa xxx
