Morning all

Been quite productive so far today

Greenbee

Not really looking forward to seeing ex tonight

Is that due to how upset it makes you? Does this mean it is totally over for you? Hope it goes ok

Thanks. Neither of us are looking forward to it very much, but we have to face each other at some point, preferably before we start travelling (March 22nd... Eurostar terminal... Netherlands, Denmark, Belgium, then on Sunday up to Edinburgh and on to Dublin). He's still got a lot of stuff to sort out in his own head and work out how he is going to live his life. He's not excluding me from it, but can't work out how he can fit me and the kids into it. Understandably (although obviously those of you with KHs will find this very odd...) he's putting the kids first. But not finding it easy. And because he wants to be with me, thinks it must be wrong... so it'll be somewhat emotional and stressful and I have to try not to deal with it by pushing him, or being deliberately hurtful just to make myself feel better.

Legwax booked. DW on. Washing almost dry and now on airer. Shirt will need ironing

Need to sort out massage and gym appointments for this week.

Need to shower and dry hair as won't have time after work.

(((((hugs)))) for poohbear. Thinking of you and DS2

Congrats to CY :T:T:T

morning all

just a quick hello before I get going

wilf hello - how's the ebaying going - I am trying to keep mine going - at least this week then a lot of junk will be disposed of.
jjef congrats about the interview :T
vanilla Happy Birthday hope you have a nice day and they all remember. Huge squishy (((hugs)))and oodles of strength and coping vibes for whatever OH has done or not done. You have so much to cope with and could really do with some more support. and do you have your Sis lodging with you now too? Make sure all able bodied people do their share - you are not a housekeeper!!!!

Oohhh... I could murder a ciggie...deep breaths...

have another mint imperial...

oh No you couldnt - you would have horrible stinky breath and clothes and just think of the black lining on your lungs:eek: get busy with your hands and keep thinking how well you are doing - be very proud of yourself for giving up:T:T:T:T
natty good luck with your new schedule of counselling etc - sounds like a good plan.
Cyclingyorkie thats the kind of post I like - a huge well done!!!!!!!! to you - thats brilliant and I am sure having persevered with it you now wont let it slide again.:T:T:T:T:T:T
I dont mean to speak out of turn but I wondered if now that DD is getting up earlier and managing to come down stairs - you mentioned that she has taken over the LR - what about encouraging her to help a bit - maybe she could be responsible for the dusting in the LR - it could take her all week but it would be a huge achievement for her???

pooh I am sorry to hear that DS1 is poorly again - I hope you will be able to help him get back on his feet soon - get well wishes for him xx
Mudbath honey its lovely to see you posting and know you are home - I hope being at home helps with a speedy recovery - lots of love xx

off to put the washing out

Hi everyone ,
So I have not had a list or posted but just wanted to share that I am still doing what I can, back allowing.
While DS at nursery this morning I have:
washed shower curtain, S and S'd loos, S and S'd kitchen, hoovered whole house, put laundry away/into ironing pile, washed woolies, washed shoes (stood in poo while hanging out woolies!)....oh and rearranged spare/craft room, I now have a nice chair in there to sit on and do my knitting .
xx

lostinrates

Hahahaha...I can see the top of my desk! Hahahahahaha! the great thing....it turns out loads of it is other people's junk! Even stuff of my parents' neither of whom live here but my dad spends a lot of time here.


So, stuck in to folders for the relevant people and I'm thinking...and this is momentous....I might fold it up (its like a bureau/writing desk but never gets the writing flap away because my in box is always heaving!)

Now, the thing I haven't found is of course, the bill I have to pay .....

Im going in for a HHC starting now, going to do the dishes and potter and get things done
