Yes please ... In fact, do you want to come and stay and look after me at the weekend? I need someone who won't fuss...

Welcome home Thrifty. As you will have seen we have had a change of leadership as Pigpen and Toots have stepped down. The new coalition consists of myself, Kaz and JulieJim.

Time to do the stars. Waiting for DH to come home. Very excited as I think I've managed to halve our house insurance but want to check it with him.

Thanks Dusty! Nice to be back The kids came home today and said "Wow the bathroom is clean" I clean the bloody thing every week cheeky beggers!

adamantine

hello everyone. ive been AWOL for a couple weeks coz my dad has been in decorating my hallway for me making all sorts of mess and smell with the paint and gloss so ive been out as much as possible then doing the bare min till he starts again in the morning but most of the mess is over and done with till i get my carpet laid in the next coupe of weeks so im going to try to get some sort of cleanliness back here over the weekend.

ive had alot of fun recently. my life would put some of those on jezza a run for their money atm!

about 2 weeks ago i was informed that i had sent a letter to an aquaintence's girlfriend telling her i was having an affair with him. i dont even know her surname of their address and i havent seen him in over a year so that is pretty impossible. i also apparently named another couple as knowing or being involved which lead to a pretty nasty argument in a pub where the aquaintence was kicked out and banned for life from his local pub on the day the other couple announced their engagement. none of them have actually came to me about this but have been spreading the rumours around town which is pretty bl00dy annoying to say the least! those that know me properly know i wouldnt do anything like that so unlike me totally ive just let it lie. i was ready to go and speak to everyone involved and find out what is going on but i realised they are just not worth it. i have my suspicions as to who wrote the letter and the reason behind it and lets just say jealousy is an extreamly ugly emotion.

saturday just past my ex who has been trying to win me back was out with his mates about 150 miles away from me and i was out with a mate. ex called me and left me a voicemail saying he had kissed another girl that night and i deserved better, he always f*&**d everything up when it came to me blah blah blah blah. i answered a later call and he told me that it wasnt true he just said it to make it easier for me to move on (i had no problem moving on it was him wanting to get back together!!) anyway later on i was getting texts saying all sorts like i just used him for sex, i was selfish and treated him like carp and he knew i had cheated on him coz someone told him. all of this was untrue and when i asked him who i cheated on him with he backtracked and said that we were not together when it happened so technically i didnt cheat on him. later on again he said it was just a lie, no one told him anything but he had cheated on me and it was his guilty conscience making him say those things. again the story changed and he hadnt done anything with the girl except sleep next to her coz he wanted to feel close to someone. then it changed again and it happened when we werent together so it wasnt cheating but he lied to me when i asked him if he had been with anyone during the breakup. it changed again and was nothing sexual just her trying to do something to him with her mouth (sorry TMI) but he couldnt manage it. where is that not sexual?!? then he said he had waited till she fell asleep and hot footed it out of there.

needless to say i do not know what version to believe and there is no way on this earth i would ever take him back now. not that i was planning on it anyway and made that clear to him a few times but he still tried.

then a friend of a friend added me on fb and we started chatting. he seemed quite a nice guy till i got a picture of his "appendage" in a text! then the convo was all about sex. told him i wasnt happy with the way the convo was going and if he really did want to get to know me better like he claimed he needed to stop it. he appologied and all was fine then it all started again later on last night. he asked me to call but i was busy so he called me, i answered, we chatted and said good night. he text but phone was on silent so he called again. then again. then again. with 3 texts in between. all in the space of 10 mins. told him this morning i wasnt up for it, it was too clingy and i dont have time for all that. he said ok sorry. then another text saying that was just his way to get to know me better. then another text asking for another chance. i havent replied. hopefully he has the message now.

boy can i pick em!

but ive got my vax carpet cleaner back off my parents and ive cleaned my lounge carpet and im a happy bunny. ill still clean it again tomorrow. and maybe the day after that too. well it hasnt been cleaned in over a year and its filthy!!

Evening all

Was too dark when I got home so unable to clean any windows. Lost 2lbs at SW so total weight loss in 3 weeks 5 1/2 lbs

Emptied DW
S&S kitchen
fed cats x2
cleaned cat litter tray

Missions - decluttered - well I have my shredder in hallway and use it whenever I get addressed junk mail etc. Most of my paperwork is in ROD but that is choc full of stuff from the lounge (in middle of redecoration). I'm quite ruthless now about takeaway menus etc and they are put straight into the recycling. However I have plenty of gibble hanging about (non-paperwork!). I did re-direct some mail for the previous owners so I did declutter some paperwork today! :rotfl:

Health check - I did book my :eek: test, but then remembered that it needs to be done mid cycle and I'd booked it when I'd just be getting on the bike. Need to change it tomorrow.


Forgiving myself - not something I can do. I'm very hard on myself

jojo - looking foward to kitten pics

Hugs & spoons to all xx
