    OH has got snowed in at his ex-wife's :(

    This is annoying for a number of reasons:

    1. I want him hear looking after me as I'm ill
    2. I need him to come back so I can pick up my car
    3. I would prefer him not to be staying under his ex's roof indefinitely... and who knows when the snow will stop

    CBA to do any work OR any housework :(
  • Oh Greenbee that sucks big time! I hope he is back with you sooner rather than later chick.
  • HHC at 1:45 anyone
  • Hugs, greenbee.

    I'm pleased you had a good holiday, it must have been a bit of a shock seeing the weather after what you must have had!

    It certainly was!

    Severe case of CBA now.....

    Greenbee - I would be very unhappy about that too

    I am deep cleaning the downstairs loo. At least then one room will be clean - hard work in ten minute blasts though.

    Thanks. We can't even have a proper WORK conversation as his ex comes in to the room the moment he starts to speak, so any communication has to be via IM. Personally I think he should ask her to give him some privacy, but I think he's trying not to rock the boat. She was supposed to be at work today and he was going to look after the kids tonight while she was at her work do, so it wasn't going to be an issue. I wouldn't mind (as much) if he'd got snowed in at his...

    we're due to go to scotland next week for a day's work, then a few days' holiday... doesn't seem like quite such a good idea in this weather though :o
