Coffee queen - that sounds like I've been feeling. Go back to bed. I was worn out after a shower today.

Trust me i would love to go back to bed but i have dd2 home(she's 1) so i have to wait till tonight.

I have cleared out the cupboard with the pans and baking trays in and made dinner and now i'm going to sit down. My legs are really aching like restless legs. Really starting to bug me now

JUST CSA HIM!!!!!

I have a mate whose ex was unreliable at paying for his kids - he'd gone off and joined the RAF and because they weren't married she had no chance that they would deduct the money for her!:mad:

She got fed up of living on the breadline whilst he lived the life of a single bloke so she CSA'd him. She now has a regular income to look after the kids with .... and she smiles too!

My sister came to her own agreement with her ex - he didn't get a solicitor. But he felt he didn't need to pay maintenance for the weeks he took their son on holiday! She regularly had to point out to him that he paid maintenance to ensure that there was a roof over their head - and that that didn't change when their son was at his parents caravan!:mad:

Sooo right, what she said...:T

you can delete them now, but I'd agree that a varied career is important in bringing experience to whatever you do
