    Seventh Anniversary Debt-free and Proud!
    Mr B , you're a blooming martyr to that family, your ds needs a boot up the bum, and told to contribute some time and effort to helping around the house.
    If you don't get him moving, confiscate his computer games !

    You take care of you, cos from here it looks like you're doing everything for everybody and no-ones looking out for you.

    Downtime sounds like just what you need at the mo, you can't keep on keeping everything running so smoothly without it

  • I think you need to put your feet up for at least a morning Bonnington. I did that yesterday and today I feel fit for purpose :)

    Enjoy the peace and quiet of your home and recharge your batteries.
  • Buy her a set of earplugs Bonnington :)

    Hard to keep everyone happy all of the time.

    Enjoy your day.

  • Damn it Bonnington, have been reading your diary from the beginning and have come to an obvious conclusion - the answer to your problems and mine ....

    ... will you marry me?


    Despite my title I do have a few bob, live down south in an AONB and you are just what I need ... no strings ... you need time out, three cooked meals a day, clothes already washed and ironed for you and your weekends free. In exchange, the odd job and and a bit of lawn mowing!

    Suggest you show this offer to DW and children and then they just may grow up and take a bit of responsibility --- kick up bottoms time I think!
