    Why is it the lovely guys who have to leave their families not the to$$ers who don't actually give a fook about them and dump them at every opportunity?

    KH excelling himself again... I am supposed to get 2 days off a month.. 2!! last time DD2 refused to go to KH's after he said she wasn't allowed to stay at her friends and he threatened to go for custody.. please do!!!!! the time before we were at OH's mothers. This time he has dumped the boys back here so he can go firkin shopping!!!! Shopping I tell you!! Why can he not do that the other 29 days a month he can't be @r$ed to see the children??????? I shop online because I am not allowed out of the house!!

    I am so angry I am one step away from a blubbering mess.. and now Dot just woke up so no lunch for me.. again..

    OH is doing nothing and moaning about Squeak talking to him and asking for stories while I have made headway in the kicthen and hung out washing and put Squeaks clean stuff away.

    The boys are changing their bedding.. if they have to be here I will make them work!

    I am TOTALLY pee'd off..

    Piggers I feel your pain - not least because I've had similar.

    And a poster on another thread has accused me of rudeness and it was the politest (IMO) postshrug.gif

    Just popped in to give a:grouphug: I hope the weekend gets better for you all.

    Not got 'Flying' as we have a minipeople invasion this weekend. We are having a 'Proud to be British Day' and we will probably head out to see the Olympic Torch tomorrow or Monday:T

    Piggers the Almond Loaf was divine, truly scrummy, definitely become a family favourite.

    While DH was feeding the animals I had a little sort out in the bedroom while I was waiting for him to get me downstairs. So another little victory in the fight for space:T

    Hello again, well living room vacuumed, shopping done including some reduced bits towards meals for week after next so not bad. Have made some croutons and just simmering a batch of minestrone soup.

    Next thing is to get out in the fresh air with the dogs.
    Spend less now, work less later.

    Kitchen is abit tidier here and i've watered the polytunnel, hung out 2 loads of washing. I think i might just carry on in the garden, there's so much rubbish with broken toys and all.

    neveah big hugs sweetie, i know what it's like to stand in your steps. Hopefully the anti-d's will kick in soon and things start to settle. What age is your DD?
    Pigpen i'm livid for you, what an !!!!..:eek:
    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 :j
