Hello to the newbies & delurkers.
I can't find my washing machine's filter and there is no mention of one in my instruction book. Do they all have one. As I'm missing a wedding ring?
Back later folks :j0 -

More washing in here and more washing out. I love seeing the pile go down..:D I've sorted through the boys pj's so that everything fits, seems they have about 4 pair each. I think thats enough to do them.
I did have a snooze too, feeling less tired now so i shall carry on.
Dusty when i was out putting the washing on the line, i was thinking that you would be out gardening today with the lovely weather.
toochoosey i'm sure you'll catch up, you take care of yourself first.
adamantine, big hugs sweetie. Please don't go on his facebook anymore, it will only continue to upset up. Remember anyone who knows both of you's will know that your not them vile names, let him blow of his steam but you need to ignore it. Just concentrate on you and the kids, have a relaxing bath tonight and have an early night. When your so tired things always seem so much worse.Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.And things go wrong no matter what I do.Now and then it seems that life is just too much.But you've got the love I need to see me through.:j :j0 -

i know it shouldnt bother me and i should stay away from it but there has been threats of violence towards me (which i think is behind the dream of me kicking the carp out of him last night came from) and apparently now he knows where i live so ive been told to keep an eye on it so that i can be prepared for if he does come up here.
trying to get hold of the army welfare atm coz his new batallion dont know the situation and i need them to be aware that i need papers served on him but they have knocked off for the day.
i just want it all over and done with finally.
but on the flying front ive managed to wash 3 loads and 2 are dry. just hung out the 3rd and with the severe winds it taking about half an hour to dry so bonus! i need to make up the beds now ive stripped them though. hate that part esp with 2 kids bouncing all over the bed :rotfl:
need to dye my hair tonight defo and sit and watch TOWIE!0 -
Ex hubby has just seen my new washing machine, and rung me up to critised it!! !!!!!!, he didn't buy it, why carnt he just keep his mouth shut......he claims it is not energy efficient as it is only a cold fill, so why does it have a low energy rating on it in the form of a large stick label thing!
Hugs all round back later.

For some people, being a KH is the only thing they're good at!
Do try to stay away from FB though, as it will only upset you. If you feel a need to keep an eye on the threats, maybe you could ask a trusted friend or family member to keep an eye out for you instead?

according to him im the KH :rotfl:
i dont want anyone on my side to have to read what i do tbh. i dont bad mouth him to them and i dont want to involve people who it doesnt concern. marriage is between 2 people so why should divorce involve more then those 2?
i did have a "trusted friend" do that for me before but that ended up with her spreading lies about me and passing on info about me to KH including my phone number, address and the kids nursery! not making that mistake again!0 -
Funny I've been thinking about my KH today. Married him 26 years ago and it was a glorious sunny day like today.
It's also my BFs 50th, and my DH (I must stress the 'D') has been away and I've just felt a bit sorry for myself. No idea why really.
I've done lots today including tidying the garden.
Just off for a shower as I need to go out later.
Dont know what's for tea. Will go and ponder ....Yesterday is history
Tomorrow is a mystery
Today is a gift
That's why we call it 'The Present'0 -
Interesting day....
Brief skittle around first thing, scooping washing up off the floor and the like, WM on, etc, then off for Minion's paediatrics appointment.
Paediatrician seemed quite happy with how Minion is doing, is sending her to a geneticist and ophthalmologist, and then at the last minute, decided to give us a slip for an ECG. Well, we've had the EEG and EKG, so we may as well go for the Full House
After waiting for a bit, the bloke doing the test decided he wasn't, and he would get a female member of staff to do it instead - which was considerate of him. At this point, Minion decided to mention to the woman that she gets fluttery feelings sometimes before she faints. I do wish she would mention these things without my having to second guess and ask her stuff. It's like getting blood out of a $*@&£$*£ stone sometimes.
Anyway, once the paeds trace had been taken, she decides to take an adult style trace as well. And said;
'I'm sure it's nothing, but there are some little changes there, are you going straight back to clinic?'
No, and clinic's finished now.
'OK, well I'll send the traces through to them, I'm sure they're nothing, but I'll send them through in any case.' and pegged it out of the room doublequick.
:cool:
We now await any contact to see whether the Something that is Probably Nothing is actually Something or Nothing.
The Attendance Officer is rather lucky that she decided against calling me up at one o'clock to see where Minion had got to. Otherwise I might have been tempted to tear her head off and hand it to her in a carrier bag.
***************
She got a super duper expensive slice of toffee fudge cake and hot chocolate with cream and marshmallows in Marks and Spencers for lunch.
I am pretty sure that the changes will turn out to be a Nothing, especially as the EKG was normal.
****************
Then we get back and I get lumbered with a snap inspection by the surveyors for the Housing Association - a bit of notice would have been nice! But, fortunately, having picked up the washing first thing, they didn't have the joys of seeing my dirty undies and socks in the linen bin.
But they did have the splat do something evil in the litter tray as they were checking the showerroom, poor blokes!
My jacket potatoes have pinged, so I'm off for a bit - should be back here rather than flying soon enough though!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
