Uni's going to try and change her life for the better.....

Ok nearly all the bills paid. C1 and Opus not changed, Egg is now only £340! :T so nearly there with that! Thats a big change from when I first started noting the figure down.
Beans is slightly lower than last month but only by £30ish.

I bought a top at lunchtime from the CS for £4, its M&S and never been worn! Its a size larger than I normally take but its cut small so its a perfect fit. I love M&S stuff but a few of their items in the per una range are really small cut.

Also helped a friend at lunchtime sort out her Arial the mermaid costume for a halloween. Managed to get something she would wear again and adapt it using items (scarves) she will wear again! Three of the scraves (used for the tail) we got out of Poundland. She's going to pleat them once she's finished with them and use them as a winter scarf, and tie each end to stop it unravelling.

Having a bad evening, need a hug. Feel quite emotional and getting no support from OH. He was messing about and I wasn't in the mood as was trying to get a card made for tomorrow for an order and he just yelled at me, not once but twice and said I was as bad as SD. Nice, eh?

SS asked me to sort out his car tax (he's given me the money), and amazingly he didn't ask for his change (50p)

Give him it back anyway. It gives you the moral high-ground.

The only thing in common between you and SD is him.

sending you hugs Uni, hope you're being offline means you've got your card finished and OH has appologised and is finally being nice to you

((((((Hugs)))))) Unix, hope you managed to get the card finished and had a good night's sleep.

Did DH apologise? Sounds like he sails pretty close to the wind sometimes...does he realize how horrid he is being?? :mad:

Uniscots97

No he didn't Keiss. He said it was my fault for making him angry, I'd been working with my lightbox (which I can only do for short periods as I find my eyes stream) whilst making the card when he decided to annoy me. He's then went off on one accusing me of crying. He knows the truth but is just being horrible. He thinks he's done nothing wrong. And as for saying I'm worse than SD! That really hurt.

I did get the card done, I didn't take a picture of it as the woman that ordered it wanted the front incorporating a family photo so I thought keeping a record of that one would be an invasion of privacy. I also need to get sorted out for the display cabinet I've booked at work to show off my craft stuff. I hope it pays off.

Whilst driving to work I realised that with the amount I've paid towards my debt in the last year alone (not made much of a dent as the interest is so horrendous but at least Egg is nearly done) that I'd have enough to buy a decent sized car brand new. Its a horrible thought. I also realised that OH keeps hampering (no pun intended) my time I want to do tarot, surveys etc.... but I don't know why?

Well done on getting the card finished, hope she likes it, sounds like you have a few orders for things you make, well done. A display cabinet for your creations at work is a brilliant idea, hope it pays off for you.

Honestly, words fail me with your OH, he is being such a prat. Has he always been like this, or has he got worse since he lost his job? Either way, he has no excuse to treat you the way he does, and he needs to realise this. You are doing your best to earn money to live, as well as pay of debts, and all he seems to be doing is thwarting all your efforts.

Sorry if this sounds harsh, but it is begining to look like he will have to go. He is making your life worse, rather than helping you and making you happy. I know it is hard, but you have to think of yourself (for once?) and rid yourself of things that are making you miserable. Sounds like he is living off you (any sign of a job that he is planning on keeping?) and instead of helping about the house, he is leaving everything to you and doing nothing but complain and making you sad. He needs a reality check, and if being shown the door by you (with his son ofcourse ), makes him sort his life out, then so be it.

Not sure if I really have any real authourity to say this as I have a wonderful DH, who I love to bits, but I have seen friends and family go through similar things over the years, many wished they had acted sooner in leavign/getting rid of the abusive partner (and he is, mentally, if not physically).

My heart goes out to you, sending you yet more ((((((hugs)))))). xx

Does he bring you in treats from the shops as well?

Uniscots97

will post tomorrow, too tired tonight. Craft fair was good and got £10 for the bags of clothes, including a few of SD's.
