    I know she didn't but as a Mum of lads, it's hard to even envisage how manipulative girls can be:D

  • Candy, I thank my lucky stars everyday I didnt have daughters. I was raised with two sisters by the world's most manipulative woman, so I know exactly what you mean. I went against the grain, too. Just like your dd ;)

    Just spoke to my gdad, he's not good and it won't be long now :( is it selfish of me to just want the worst not to happen on my birthday?

    Dinner was good, pup isn't feeling v. well and is snuggled on my bed, his tummy is really hot, hope he's not getting sick :(

    Someone on my FB put the most disrespectful thing on her status re: Gary Speed, and I applaud the person who is currently ripping into her.

    Thank you so much for the kindness I've received in your posts :A, I picked DGD2 up today at 2pm, DD2 is again full of cold and has a raging temp. She has baby Olivia whilst we have Charlotte. Didn't really feel up to looking after a 2.6yr old but in the end it's proberbly done me good. No wallowing, no self pitty, yet still lots of ??????? :o
    Nothing I can do about the situation, I was told that I would have an MRI scan but the Dr said it would be wasting time so just go straight to the "C" unit.
    Really sorry to moan but it's just hit me and DH as to what it might be. I know everyone fears the worst, only normal eh?? :o
    Hugs and high 5's to all.x

    Wits end, here I come.
