    I've calmed down a bit now, I think its worse because I love him so much and I don't want to split up over something like this! Not seen him yet, came to mums for dinner. He text to say sorry and he wants us to have a nice break but I think a serious talk needs to happen sometime soon, maybe in the new year x

    I hope you clear the air tonight, go and have a nice break tommorrow. He obviously loves you very much. I'm sure he didn't mean to hurt you, but it sounds like a serious talk will be needed sooner or later x

    Thanks everyone (again) for being so kind to me today! I think I am having some pre-30 wobbles :(, I don't want to sound miserable or mean to my OH but I have realised that I will soon be 29 and I'm getting too old to be in a relationship if we aren't singing from the same hymn sheet for want of a better analogy. That said, I love him dearly and whilst he has his moments he does generally treat me like a princess :).

    I haven't said anything as I want to be in good spirits for our trip and I am sure a few days away together will do us both the world of good. In my head I have decided that once I have paid my debt off I want the pair of us to have a very frank and honest talk about where we see ourselves heading in the next few years, hopefully that may clear the air between us!

    I went shopping at lunch...this month has been a money disaster :eek: but I somehow managed to pick up another top that is far too small so that's two to be returned next week. I haven't actually packed as I didn't want everything to get creased up overnight but it's all in one place so I'll do it in the morning. Forgot to leave my mum my keys to feed the fish *doh*! All the paperwork, passports and Euros etc are in my bag ready and I have the camera and spare battery so think I am almost there! Wont be having a late night as lots to do in the morning -

    • shower!
    • pack clothes
    • change some tank water
    • drop keys at mums
    • double check all docs are in my bag
    • put tank light on timer
    • check bank account
    I am hoping I will get a chance to pop on tomorrow morning before we leave but if not.....SEE YOU IN A FEW DAYS! :D

    Big Hugs Jody. - thought i would pop on here after i saw your status on FB

    I really do think you need to have a proper chat with OH about it. Maybe towards the end of your trip away?

    It was rather insensitive of him if it was a joke and a bit of a problem if it wasn't if you definitely want more children.

    I need to sit down and have the 3rd child conversation with OH soon. A bit nervous as i am not sure myself!!! But i know we need to sit down and dicuss it!! x

    Hi Kel, thanks for dropping in! I always used to be a 'what happens, happens' person but I think I just starting to panic that time is passing me by far too quickly! The problem is that I don't know if I do want more children which makes it a tricky situation, that said, I would like to know that if in a few years time I woudl like to try for a baby, that OH wouldn't refuse. I know that's a tough call because people can always change their minds but I just need him to know how important that choice is to me :).

    Best of luck with your 3rd baby discussion and have fun with your girls tonight, I am quite jealous of your girls night in ;)

    Well after a stressful evening and morning I think we are almost there! OH had a massive attack of the snores last night and I just couldnt get him to shut up so I ended sleeping on the sofa :rotfl:. Have sorted out the fish and mum kindly came over to get the keys. Have double and triple checked I have all the paperwork and think everything is packed, well if it isn't then I obviously don't need it!

    Just checked and doesn't seem to be any traffic problems, touch wood. Leaving in about 5/10 minutes for the airport. Flight is FR701 going out incase anyone wants to check I arrived safely :rotfl:.

    I miss you guys already and will catch up when I get back although I have a sneaky feeling out B&B has free wireless ;)
