Find 5 items to sell/give away.. and list for sale if necessary - got loads mainly home ed / teachery stuff no longer needed - books.

Other stuff I want to do like language courses, piano, drawing, learning a bit about web design/photography but only when house is sorted - given myself til end of Jan to have been through every room with a binbag:) Started this at the beginning of December so it's getting there as far as getting rid of rubbish - though my idea of rubbish and OH's idea don't always match up - I'd quite happily fling more out but it's his stuff "that might come in useful". He has actually been proved right once or twice but we don't talk about that :rotfl:
Other stuff today - shopping / curtain rail / bin for DS room

Piggers - has this been brewing or is it just an argument that will blow over? Hope it gets sorted out.
They are both behaving like children which 18 and 19 is fine.. but I have been expecting this and can easily sort things (with the aid of the security deposit set aside for a flat if needs be.. sshhhhh)frugalbrunette wrote: »MorningSo pleased it's Master Bedroom today as was just about to post that I won't be following you all today as bedroom is desperate. Now i can post with you.
It was requested.. plus I read minds as well as spy on you via my flycamsockdrawer wrote: »I did nearly post just to vent about KH who decided to contact DS1 via FB (for the first time in about 10 years) with a "happy birthday, I've not been in touch because your mother would rather I didn't contact you or the other children. Now you're a big boy you can decide for yourself" message.
Totally untrue, KH has always known where we live/had the phone number/could always visit if arranged first, he chose not to, and the children have always known that, but it still upset me. Oddly as well, that same morning, got a CSA reassessment, phoned them up, and they have actually caught up with him. (after years and years of him eluding them/not paying child support) Bit of a roller coaster day emotionally for me- not that I let it spoil DS's day, but I did stay up rather late with the rest of the wine and fret about it. Typically selfish dramatic gesture from KH though. I'm so glad to be away from that relationship!
Maybe he should message back
'Did you know where we lived? Did you have a phone number? And surely if you wanted to see us you would have made the effort even if it meant getting a court order':p
It is water under the bridge now and even if the children do get in touch with him it'll take about 5 minutes for them to form an opinion
And.. :T:T re CSA hopefully you will get a big fat cheque and KH can moan about that too!!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 -
For my HHS I am going to take a walk to the local library, not sure they will have what I want(and I'm not fussy on the woman who works there!!!....very friendly but far too nosey) but I have seen a book on Amazon that looks good and don't want to fork out for a book I may get in the library.....catch you all in 30....xx0
