    mummyroysof3 big hugs that must be hard to hear even if you had your suspicions, hopefully they are geared up to support you x

    Well I have done naff all today, I think I deserve it. My mum has been over to keep me company and help with the children, one of whom is in bed, and the other one almost ready for off.

    My inlaws sent me some beautiful flowers, red roses and white lilies, what I had in my wedding bouquet and his funeral arrangement. The card said hope you're not too sad today, we love you. It's lovely but i was caught off guard when they were delivered, and did have a bit of a blub.

    I was in the card box, and found our anniversary cards from last year, so I've put them up on the fireplace. It's odd, but the cards we got each other were almost identical, as was what we wrote in them... We were just in tune with each other. I miss that xxx

    Oh Boosymoo the day is nearly over and you've done well. I'm glad you have the support of both yours and your DHs parents. I hope having the cards up can bring you a little smile xx

    Well done.
    Got my first payslip today. Despite clocking in and out every day I've only been paid for 16 hours. According to my records I've did 18.5 last week. I will let it go for now but will try to do stick to my allotted hours in future. That tends to be the usual - you only get paid for the hours that you're supposed to do.

    Lamewolf - what a lovely thing to remember. I've know my DH 24 years on the 23rd of this month. We realised we liked each other on 29th July - our WA! So you only decided you liked each other after you'd got married!

    Yorkie - hope your DD's have plenty of spoons.

    Been to Beavers - I'm ready for bed now but DD is at Scouts so won't be in for about another 40 mins.
