Yes, MFD, I know what you're saying and you're right. It's just everything rolled one and the fact that my birthday was a chance for him to show his appreciation.. and it seems like he has none :cool:

I've cancelled the hotel. I want my birthday over with, it ends now, no point in dragging it (and all the bad feeling) out until the weekend which I won't enjoy anyway.

Like I say, over. No more whinging. Sorry to take up so much room with it

Am off to the dentist now..

I take it your mum is young for her age? (or am I being totally ignorant )

Nope. She is your average 60 year old...


...but they do say that 60 is the new 40!!!


And 33 is the new 21 :cool:


Hubby had one of his employees here today digging up the patio (should I be worried!!!) and his wife had a premmie a few months ago. Was chatting to him about baby girl and how she is doing and thinking to myself (OMG - you are just a baby yourself!!). It is the first time I have met him and he is only about 25!!!

Can you just tell him the top sentence? Not about me being right (he knows that I always am ) but the bit that it is just a big bad year rolled into 1 and your birthday was his opportunity to say how special you are and how well you have done and he missed it.

He probably didn't realise that you had built it up.


We love you and think you are ace and brilliant and we hope that we have been a teeny weeny bit of support to you in the last year :A xxx

Elle Im not sure what happened between you and OH but hugs.

Beenie - Your ex sound like a douche. Don't go back!! Hope kitty comes back.


Does anyone have any ideas what I could get for OH's mum's birthday on Sunday? She is 60 (NOT SPHEREING!!) I don't even know what that is, but Caz story sounds horrible and if it involves heights, then OMG.

She's into arts & crafts, gardening, knitting, cross stitch etc, but she has everything including about 4 spinning wheels.

I was thinking of maybe a decorative cake stand? As I always see her looking at them, maybe a cupcake one? Also some microwaveable slippers, because their house is freezing?

Or is that not really good enough for a 60th? I hate how OH leaves me to do this, as he knows his parents better than I do, and I wouldn't even know it was his mums birthday if his sister hadn't texted me to remind me, as OH ALWAYS forgets peoples birthdays, and still hasn't written them down for me

MFD there are age/health restrictions so take a look at those before you book, and remember the £5 off if you use buyagift and 12% Quidco

to encourage K to move about (crawl) we put down a baby blanket on the flooring. anyone got any other ideas of what we can use as its tends to slip everywhere when he starts to swing his legs in the air.

a play mat I have a tummy time mat, and a gym/mat combo or you could get some of those foam squares that fit together.

I've been getting notifications of comments on a mates fb photos that make me think her premie LO has died I'm too scared to look incase it's true

Are you wishing a hanging-type injury on my mother :eek: I hope not or I will have to set you on fire and use you as a shoe :rotfl::rotfl:


No way is she getting sphereing now. She can have a jigsaw and be quiet about it like a 60 year old should


Sami - 25 is the new baby!! He looks like he should still be at school!!!

Elle, have a hug. I think the worst thing is the lack of appreciation of you that not surprising you on your birthday shows, and then for him to go ahead and say your not worth the effort.... I remember a few valentines ago when DH got me sod all, I was so bloody angry and upset. My last birthday I asked for breakfast in bed, that was all, just toast and jam and a coffee in bed. Morning came, I asked DH if he was getting me breakfast in bed and he said no, well he said !!!! off actually. So I got up and seen to the kids then when he came down he didn't know why I was so angry, so I explained that when he asked what I wanted for my birthday and I said breakfast in bed, getting told to !!!! off cos he's a crabbit git who didn't go to bed till 3am was a bit of a dampener. He then tried to make up for it, but I wasn't having it, it was wasted already and going shopping would have sickened me to my stomach. I still haven't forgotten that and no doubt at his birthday I am such a stupid sap I will make him breakfast in bed, and them take the moral high ground by not telling him to !!!! off and reminding him that I am, by far, a better person than he, HA!

So yes, it hurts. In a few days you will be able to let it go, but also in a few days sit down and explain to him just how upset it made you feel.

And Beenie, all your ex could teach Cam about being a man is how to blame others for his !!!! ups, treat women like dirt and be a selfish !!!!. You are ALL far better off without him!
