It's hard when the littlies go away isn't it. My daughter went on a trip back in November for a week and I sobbed the whole time she was away. She cried her eyes out waiting for the bus outside of school and gave me this pathetic 'will I ever see you again' tearful wave from the bus. It took me a good hour before I was fit to drive out of the school gates. Ooh I missed her.
SF sometimes it feels like all we do is give give give, and it does get tiring. I have this silly little thing where I make myself do one kind thing every day, you know, help an old lady accross a road, carry someones shopping onto a bus. I think if everyone did a kindness a day the world would be a nicer place. I try to smile at people when I'm out too. But some days, when people are shoving me in shops, treading on my toes and shutting doors in my face, scowling back at my smiles I think... oh sod the lot of you, it really gets me down. So, I think, everytime you do something for someone else, do something nice for yourself too. But you should take pride in the fact that you are a giver, even though it gets rough at times. I do think you'll get your reward one day, lets hope it's in the shape of 2 weeks drinking beer in mexico eh! x
Oh toto, the more of your posts I read and the more I find out about you (petite, lovely and a musician) the more I wish that we were all muslims and could have more than one wife. We could have Mrs Dither wife to clean our house and wash our clothes and Mrs Snaggles wife to cook our meals, while we spent all day making passionate love.
Hmnn, did I just think all that out loud?

I don't see why not, but, judging by how much branson charges for my virgin media package I'm not sure we can afford it. I was thinking more pontins? I have shoes and things to buy too you know!:A

we could convert! Mr toto is quite good at... umm... something... hang on, it'll come to me in a minute
does that mean you would need a few husbands too? Snaggles comes with a Mr snaggles, this could get confusing. But I'm up for it :rotfl: :A

I know what you mean about tired!
My legs are aching, my eyes are tired from staring at a PC all day and I dont' know what to do first! I've done just over 8 hrs overtime since Friday - and it's not stopping anytime soon (get time in lieu in August instead of more money
)
HUGS to you. Have a nice hot bath with some music or a book and lock the door, lol.

My mum still accuses me of running away to London (I left home at 21 - she didn't talk to me then turned up on my doorstep announcing she had left the boys at home) and I'm 38 now! Her latest one is having a go at my OH for "taking me away"!!! cos we're getting married later this year!!!
Thanks to MSE, I am mortgage free!
