Good morning all,

I also fed the birdies and the cat. Oh and put a little note pad and pen in the kitchen and started a list of things I am running low on. Rather than random shopping I need to be a bit more organised.

Ooh I moved..
Toilet cleaned.. it was full of kitty footprints!

3rd and 4th loads in WM's.. 1 duvet and a full load of towels!.. a load of jeans and towels for the next 2 loads!
2 loads of towels on the line
Baby up, fed, dressed and going wild in her jumperoo.. she is still snotting but seems much better today thank goodness!!!!
My house is a pit.. and I feel like poopsies...
I just need to offload my paranoia and insecurity on you.. I'll keep it brief.. If your OH had 2 FB accounts and chat windows open to the same person in both.. 1 all perfectly innocent but wrote in the other to someone they were his valentine and told them several times he loved them and when they were off for a snooze said he wished he was right there too.. would you be !!!!!! off??? Bear in mind he hasn't said any of those things to me in a while, if ever..
So.. do I have a growl at him, in which case he would know I had sneaked on his lappy and read his chat with this person.. He did say this person was nothing more than a friend in the beginning but I can't help but think that is not his doing and she is stringing him along and he would be there in a flash if she asked him to be.. in spite of the plane fare!
See, they are essentially all exactly the same.. and I am VERY much on the verge of booting him but I may be over-reacting due to KH's behaviour.. I feel really unwell and am being a little unreasonable and irrational and hormonal anyway.
I may be really sneaky and leave this post on screen so he can read it and he'll know I've read his and I'll know he read mine.. no communication or confrontation needed..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 -

HHC starting now, got to chat to OH on messenger for a few mins :j he now needs picking up at 11am rather than 8.30 so thats better for me. runs to do HHC0

Oooh Piggers I would be !!!!!! off. Whether it is just a fantasy thing i.e. distance makes it impossible or some sort of escapism maybe? I dunno. I would try not to fret about it at the moment and focus on getting well then think about it/talk to him about how you feel. You don't have to mention what you have seen just that your feeling a little unloved?
*just by tupennies worth*
Ok.. while i waited for my coffee to cool I did my ironing (quite a bit from going away and things building up) which is now all done and folded undies/socks etc.
I need to think about having some lunch now.. probably soup and toast as its quite chilly here and I need warming through.
