Trying to do some stitching today but can't settle to do anything...

Bit of background, my hubby is an alcoholic but has been super good for the past while, only this past week has been hell. He had a drink on Sunday and then again on Wednesday. This morning I went to the shop at 9.15am returned home and he was away out. He won't answer the phone and has no credit on it to phone me. He has a sister who lives about 50 miles from us who also drinks very heavy and I think he is away there, but I have no contact details for her. He has no money but a PS3 game has also vanished which we only bought the other day and was still sealed so I assume he has taken it back and got the £40 for it. Makes me so mad as we have so much to sort before the baby gets here and it's due in just under 7 weeks. If I went into labour now I have no way of getting in touch which him...so selfish...

Sorry for the totally off topic rant..xx

Oh Caroline, sorry to hear about your plight. I hope he comes home soon. x

I finished the Piggy today:

hope he's come home tail between his legs Caroline....... tho if he's owt like my hubby he won't think he's done anything wrong. mine was (is) forever going out to the pub and refusing to answer his phone in the evenings. with DS1 I was due on the saturday.... went overdue...and he still went to the pub on the monday!! luckily (humph) he hung on in there for another week!

Still no sign and the phone has been switched off from about 3.30pm. My Mum phoned the sister for me, as my credit is really low, and they said he is not there and they haven't heard from him, but they very rarely tell me the truth anyway....last time they said he wasn't there and then the next morning my Mum got a phone call to work from the hospital near her and it was him to say he had broken his foot, didn't remember how he got there or anything, had been there from the night before and no one from her house went with him or even phoned me to let me know.

I am getting !!!!ed off with him now.

Apocasaver

Oh Caroline that's awful
He shouldn't be worrying you in your condition, I feel angry for you too. I hope you find out where he is soon, and he should come back with a big apology!

kezy- I like the pig, I've never seen/thought of stitching friendship bracelets that's a good idea.
And I did say in a post the other day well done on the piglet cushion, but it seems to have vanished? strange!
I also wondered if there's any chance of a of the mr men (if it's not too cheeky to ask?)

pm2326- hmm, I was thinking a giant mushroom, but I really don't know.

postingalwaysposting- love Ollie even more now he's finished, so cute!

I've done a grand total of 11 stitches today, so my great progress of last week has completely gone by the wayside!
