  • school closed here, training course I was due to go on also closed. Was meant to visit parents in Wiltshire on Thurs but that will not happen as problems everywhere. It has been snowing all day here, and we have about 5 inches. Will be brave and have a walk later with the kids 4 & 2 and husband reckons he wants them to build a snowman....we'll see....I might just stay in and let them go for it!

    Oh Beanie, I know its mainly me just getting annoyed but he doesn't get it. Im used to doing the stuff around the house and looking after B. He hangs around, starts doing stuff that I can happily do and loiters...it drives me mad, get a !!!!ing job, get off your arrse, get on the phone. rahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    Sorry I am just beyond the point of no return. After walking past an agency in town there was an IT position, told him about it, said well it wasn't there the other day (god how many times do I need to tell him he should be on the phone everyday). Just asked him if he had phoned them, said yes and I sent my CV...now I know he didn't phone them as Ive been here all morning. Its things like his blantant lying that is making me soooo angry

    My OH was one of the 1000 who got stranded overnight on the A3 - up between Midhurst & Petersfield - he finally got in (Gosport) at 6.45 this morning! No work for him - he's had a nap & is now building an igloo with DS!

    My bro got stuck on Lancer's Hill in So'ton yesterday evening & made it home for 9.30am this morning!

    I struggled into work this morning - ferry's still on - and a very slippery walk, but then we got sent home at 11.00.

    Might have to go to my nearest office tomo, coz I'm not struggling through that again with no buses running down here!

    I'm not sure what size I am now though...hmm might leave it for a few days and get a tape measure! Saved it to my basket for 30 days anyway :)

    Thanks Pap - its more than I usually pay but I'm wanting some better quality stuff to mix and match with my cheaper stuff :D

    Seriously thinking of watching Casualty.
    (and before Sally tells me off, I have been looking for jobs in between chatting. Very slow out there at the moment).

    Bookie I wouldn't ever tell you to get a job hun, Its just OH, mainly because he doesn't realise the implications of his laziness and sitting around playing games when he is pretending to look for a job! You don't have anyone relying on you. At the end of the day if he wants to live in debt/poverty then fine..he can do it on his own!
