    Whassup? No sign of a job for DH?

    eta shame on MrT delivery person, flung open my front door that I was clearly standing near holding baby, and hit baby with door then completely failed to say even a basic sorry.

    Baby is ok, but sorry doesn't cost.

    OMG! :eek: Thats awful!

    I'm just feeling unappreciated and like I'm not getting anywhere. Debts just won't get below 40K because DH always adds to them. I've been running round doing loads for him since his op and he just moans at me. The house is back on stand still because he won't let his dad come round whilst we are here and I'm not allowed to do anything to it because I'll do it wrong. Grrr.

    Due to his op he's not been able to be too active in looking for a job passed lodging an interest with a few places. Nobody is interested until he's better though so who knows. Grrr.

    DD2 has a party on 3rd Sept, 11 kids, the parents of 5 of them haven't bothered to RSVP.

    Anyone else think that's rude??

    Very rude, i had the same thing with my DD out of her class of 28 i got 15 replies, and about 22 turned up. Its even worse manners when some that didnt RSVP got dumped on the drive, didnt see parents for dust then came for them 20 mins late with no apology!!!
  • What chance do those kids have of then developing good manners? It is a never ending cycle!! Makes me sad for the country =\

    Yeah, I'm sure I'll feel too stressed and overworked when I get back to school to be bothered worrying about being unappreciated. :rotfl:
