hugs greenbee - I would be the same in your situation!
What do you want the test to say?:jFlylady and proud of it:j0 -
Not sure right now... its a bit soon really given the circumstances, but if its positive I'm sure we'll sort things out. OH is driving me nuts at the moment. I miss him and want him to come home, and he's coming up with all sorts of practical solutions to how I can manage without him. How come he doesn't understand that all I need him to do is tell me he misses me too? Why do I have to explain it...cyclingyorkie wrote: »hugs greenbee - I would be the same in your situation!

because he's a bloke
and they sometimes need things s-p-e-l-l-e-d out to them..
In his defence (sorry!) he's probably more than aware that his ex, and/or children are listening in, and doesn't want to rock the boat.
treat yourself to some chocolate, a warm bath, whatever you like. Think you deserve it.

I have re-read both Bridget Jones books this week - I am sure I should quote some self help psycho babble rant at this point
Pasta inflicted on self and children because we had run out of rice. Meal planning only works if you actually check the store cupboard first.
I need to go and make our bed, and then try and make yet another start on the kitchen. Feel free to fling mules, I CBA to dodge. Anyway I have it on excellent authority that I really need wine, chocolate, a bath and Georgette Heyer.'If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need' Marcus Tullius Cicero0 -
greenbee ... cos he's a man, duh!! And because his ex is probs eavesdropping. Have pm'd you.
ETA and three flyladies type much quicker than me!
toots - I have now done the livingroom too!:snow_laug:j:j:j
DD and I have written a shopping list for the rest of the Christmas presents that I need to get before our family get-together next Sunday - please let the snow go in the next ten days! I have ordered some of them online. We then made the Christmas puddings. I need more eggs, and then we'll make the cake. DD is going to decorate it this year.
:hello:Hi lady-liberty! Lovely to see you. I think of you every day, and send a virtual hug, whenever I'm on flylady.
:hello:Hi to all my flylady friends.
Love and hugs.It is never too late to become what you were always intended to be0 -

You're both right... lets hope he realises I'm being hormonal and unreasonable, as at the moment we're arguing via IM which is a particularly pointless exercise... I have actually just explained that I DO appreciate the practical input, but I'm being difficult and emotional. Let's hope that he remembers to call later. If he doesn't he may find himself dumped by IM tomorrowbecause he's a bloke

I think I'd better go and close the curtains and consider changing my PJs for clean ones before I go to bed

Loving it!!
greenbee seriously, you are trying to appeal to his brain/heart but you should be aiming a bit further down.
Chuck some raunch at him (you don't have to follow through with it!!) and I bet he becomes suddenly very inventive about how to get outta there.Please do not confuse me with other gratefulsforhelp. x0 -
