Hi all..in as much as I can manage this week...BabyDs birthday party on Saturday so need a tidy house for that..Teens WILL be helping.......
Fell off track last week due to the dreaded Menaires..really knocked me for six on Thursday.... was in town when it hit and had to come home thankfully I was with DD1 so she could cope with the LOS...
Today...Been out with OH and got a new DW:T:T:T:T..its a Bosch...reconditioned with a 5 year no quibble guarantee for £209 thought that was a really good price and it has a quick wash feature which I really wanted :j:j
Oh has fitted it so we are up and working thankfully
he has also fitted a new dimmer switch in the bedroom so another job off the list.
Made a scrummy lemon cake which was very well received...washed boys bedding and 4 more loads of clothes
Did all the ironing:D:D
OH has packed ...hes away to the Lake District for a week...wanted me to go as well but LO has an hour at school for the first time on Tuesday:eek::eek::eek: and DS2 has an appointment at Charles Clifford on Wed to look at his broken tooth...that will NOT be fun...he is totally needle phobic...
Thanks to all at FCC for keeping me on the straight and narrow

I'm in again.
But I'm feeling a bit down now. He sent a text saying that he had changed his mind and was going to move in properly until I had a go at him for something he didn't do. Yeah, because he drove here, parked up outside the front window then hid in the boot and necked a can before he came in, rather than drinking it before he got into the car, didn't he? His niece is friends with Minion and she said something about him having Nanny in tears when he got there, but won't say why, whether it was because he was upset or being horrible to her, I don't know.
I am so feeling crap right now. I really didn't expect to find he had done something so f&^&*&* stupid and ignorant and dangerous and for him to still insist he did no such thing? I'm not going mad.
I am so lonely. It would be madness to let him back, even if he wanted to.
But I so need a hug.I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.Yup you are officially Rock n Roll0 -
*hugs Jojo super-squishy tight*
And what about if he had that drink and then took minion in the car.. Who would drive you mad then?
Says a lot if he would be mean enough to go and upset his poor mum like that too. You cannot build a forever on a bed of lies and deceipt. You REALLY don't need another loser dragging you down, you are doing so well. Let him stew in his own juices and I'm sure someone far more deserving of your time is out there somewhere!
Go hug a splat.. and I'm sure tomorrow things will look different! And if it doesn't I'll give you a slap with a fresh kipper so the splats leap all over youLB 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 -
Morning all. Windows open cos its hot but noise from outside makes sleep impossible:(
Was here last week but lurked-did more flying as a result.:o Now have a working dishwasher so kitchen looks remarkably better without dirty/drying dishes everywhere.
JoJo - Hugs for you. You are better off on your own than with someone who feels it is their god-given right to behave exactly as they please regardless of the emotional stress they cause in the people they supposedly love. He probably enjoys the feeling of control it gives him. - you need to take control - bin him!
