    Well this afternoon I spent talking to the ex when he came round to borrow something. We got on fine as we do. No contact, no hug or peck and left me feeling I know it is over but still..........a pang of loss which has left me feeling low low low.

    Have made some (26 :p) krispie buns with a mini egg on top to cheer myself up a bit. Used up 2 bars of chocolate from the cupboard and some more bun cases - result!

    What else, rushed out to bring the clothes and bedding off the line when it chucked it down. Now airing in the house, duvet cover in TD and pillow cases on the radiators as its cold!

    The spare room is done and dusted so just the kitchen and bathroom to do tomorrow. Better find some things to do for Sun and Mon or I'll do my own head in with thinking about him

    Just trying to summon up the motivation to finish off the bedroom list and do some yoga before tea. Funny how your feelings can be affected by the slightest thing and surprise surprise my eczema is itching again.

    How about spending it visiting people and distributing some of those Easter rice krispie cakes you've made... before you eat them all yourself ;):p

    You're doing really well... guess I'd better drag myself out for that walk before it gets dark/rains/cba settles in. Ipod is charged with running music (it works just as well for walking) so I should be able to get at least 4 miles in...

    DW is on again, and I really need to do something about the washing mountain. I also have to clear the party popper streamers from our bedroom and from the playroom at some point before bedtime :p. I do not want to sleep in glitter palace.

    Hello everyone
    Kazmeister’s comment about pg flybabies not been on the list made me go look...I think you might have been referring to me. I’m Pigpens worst prodigal daughter (and 19 weeks gone), but Im beginning to learn I must stay. Otherwise there is one other I know of for sure but not sure if she’s mentioned it here as I know its not been too smooth a ride for her, so will let her out with it.
    Pigpen may I go back on the list please? Might help me focus some? And OMG for the KH-but for the record I was talking to DH about you and the thread and the kids etc and he responded to my description with the words “now that’s *expletive* saintly-Im impressed”
    Thanks Frodd it’s really nice to be back
    Julie Sorry to hear about Gemma, they always are a part of the family and its sad to lose them. Hope it was a good DVD
    Buggalugs annoying anyone? On your second time, Id hate to be inside the heads of those who think thats annoying. I think this is 6 or 7 for me!
    Valli well done on the new arrangement. Im taking all your old advice regarding getting in early. DS paid his £1 for his scallywags gym from his own piggy bank yesterday. His own choice, I was “banking” the pounds into “mum’s buffer jar” and he asked if he had enough coins in his mini cooper car to pay for Scallywags.
    Rose and Emzy I suffer from Cyclothymia (a form of bi-polar) and some of the older posters have walked through the worst of it with me-infact a low is whats brought me back again. Something I think the girls have learned to recognise. Cognitively, I’ve realised how much balance the thread provides for me (and my DH agrees ), its a bizarre concept-the internet keeping you together. But Ive been able to sort of wean myself off the bulk of my meds since my pregnancy began...so if either of you need some insight....
    Ishtar Yay for toddling babies. I remember my dad saying when I was so excited about talking and walking that I should let it take its time because when they start I’ll be begging him to sit down and be quiet-he was right. I’ll take it slowly this time round



    Today we got up and DH did the lounge (except my desk which I am about to do), I did the bathroom and now he’s complaining it’s too bright in there. ;) I even dismantled the loo to clean under the hinges and it was ashamedly disgusting. My DB and SIL came by with Easter eggs from Hotel Chocolate (sp?) and my wedding photo’s.:j He edited them and played with them and they look even better than the raw ones did. He also printed a few lovely ones for us...so I’ll have to get the house pretty so I can buy some photo frames.:D We got some as pressies but none big enough for the prints he did.
    And here’s my list:

    ooh... KH has just laid out his priorities.. he is not coming to get the children because he is at the hospital with his latest trollop waiting for her to be discharged.. she has had surgery before, there is no reason she cannot get a taxi or anyone else to collect her.. wonder who got her last time?

    He needs more than a kick, like someone else said, don't forget to document it all
    Very depressed,can't fly, hardly functioning. Sorry not read thread. Want to cry, but may never stop. Want to sleep but nightmares are so bad I can't risk it.
    Rose, cry if you need to, but remember we are here to support you. I will write you a pm.

    julie, sorry to hear about Gemma xx It must have been a shock for you all.

    Triker hugs, thinking of you. DK recommended a book for me to read a couple of years ago when mine were being like that.I have since sent it on to my sister. Maybe DK can remember what it was?

    Hi polkadot and congratulations!

    Hello Pooh,

    Was just checking my emails and got one about it being the 15th anniversary of the poem "imagine a woman". I thought it very relevant to our community (and as inspiring as our little community) so thought you all might appreciate a read of it... here's a link:
