No, I'm not ok.. <delete huge detailed hospital hating waffle>
One of the childen left the grill on.. same as last time.. but with the 9000 smoke alarms installed after the last fire OH was able to get there in time with minimal damage done... shame really I could really do with another monster insurance pay out
so, today, in spite of everything.. I have gutted my bedroom, moved a couple of chests of drawers around, filled bags for charity shop and flung loads of guff out... it has kicked off the bleeding again but the hospital don't give a toss so why should I? I started bleeding so heavily and suddenly last night I thought my waters had broken.. until I realised it wasn't water (I don't have a bulb in the loo).. My room looks pretty amazing though..
DD2's birthday tomorrow.. DS3 been a total barstool today and the 3 littlies are heading for smacked bottoms & DD1 is in the dog house.. I asked her last night to get up this morning and have these for an hour so I could go to hospital and she stayed in bed until after 1 so I didn't get there.. so now I have OH being shirty with me.. like that is my fault!! KH is getting an ear chewing when I see him.. cheeky FW.. thought he was having the children tomorrow when I have organised DD2 a party.. so he has arranged to have them Tuesday.. with DD2.. not spoken to me about this mind!! So we will be having words.. arrangements to see the children go through ME not them.. and he is NOT having them Mondays and if he cannot be reasonable enough to arrange a proper time to have them I WILL make plans as is my prerogative! AND I want a list of dates he would like to have them over the holidays.. I NEED time off.. because at the moment I will either kill one/or more/all of them or myself!
And as I've not read the remainder of last weeks thread.. and might not be back here for a few days.. relevant salutations to all...LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -

The hospital don't actually give a toss about me so long as the baby is ok then I don't matter.. needless to say I am use to neither man nor beast at the moment.. I can't walk, I can't sleep, I can't eat, I daren't drink in case I burst, I can't stop itching which is infuriatiing!, I am in constant pain which no amount of drugs is helping.. and I have asked OH to kill me on numerous occasions and he is refusing because he would get into trouble..LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0

hi ... can I join? just broken up for 5 weeks summer break and although I want to blitz the house I don't want to spend all day every day cleaning. hoping this thread will get me into good habits.
Monday Level 1 looks do-able.
And I also need to order new element for cooker and clear out the swimming pool now it is green!!
That should make an achievable list.
Thanks0 -
Piggers my dear, have a BIG hug and a tissue to blow your nose with after you cry from having that hug.
The best thing you've said there in all those tales of woe is that the baby is OK. That's Good! Enjoy it!
You'll look back at this in two months time with a wry smile.
I would give you advice like force a load of water down yourself anyway to help with the infection but I know you won't take that advice so I won't offer it.
And I rather admire your OH for deciding that killing you wouldn't be worth the trouble he'd get into.
Please continue to post - even if it's just to rant then we know you're OK. Toots texted wanting to know about Squeak but she's in her own ..um.. difficult place at the moment after an operation. Hence you all got lumbered with me tonight as Asbo Toots is AWOL...
As to KH - well he can go hang. Next time you want DD1 to do something - you flipping well haul her out of bed and make sure she does it..
I'm glad your fire alarms worked!
Have another hug whether you want it or not xxxxI am the leading lady in the movie of my life

I don't actually care whether the baby is ok or not.. I am not and surely I am already a person so my needs should come first.. the baby doesn't even have any rights, it doesn't even exist..
My kidneys aren't working.. drinking is making the problem worse!

The baby does exist Piggers and you know it.
Re the kidneys - have you been taking the antibiotics you were prescribed?
And if not why not?I am the leading lady in the movie of my life
