Tiger they look yum . Nice to see you xx

Thanks cjj. How are you? Nice to be back, albeit fleetingly.. Just cant seem to find time for elite at the moment - since our office relocation, various family birthday celebrations and parties, family visits, DS starting school and a boss who keeps giving me work... i promise i will be back, it's just a bit bonkers really.

On a more ironic note, re: those chocs I found, i joined the gym 10 days ago and have just booked my induction for 9am tomo :rotfl: I've already done a body pump class (was brill) and a resistance class (ex army instructor, bonkers but so motivating and i could barely move on day 2. But I'm doing it again this week :T)... strong is the new skinny

I know I shouldn't feel like it, think I have had too much time to think this week with no adult company and this just touched a nerve as I was already feeling down.

Except for couple of phone calls with Mr TS, the Elite are the only people I have in essence spoken to all week.

Oh and DD1 and DD2 but that was mum stuff.

Hello TS (and little tweets). i have thought about you all loads, isn't it odd how we've never met yet i think about various elite a fair bit (not in that way Nerfy, just in case you are reading this!!!!):rotfl:

Something in your post says so very much about your Dad and what a gent he is :A
Speaking from my experience, the male dignity thing is a really big issue I felt exactly as you do. I would have done whatever was needed but it wouldn't have made my Dad feel comfortable. As it was other events took that decision out of our hands at the time.

He sounds like a very proud man who wants his family to remember him at his best. That's so hard for you and your family but understandable too. It's very touching that (it seems) he is protecting the people he loves from seeing him at his most vulnerable. :A

I can say this after feeling a bit shut out myself in my situation a while back and thinking my Dad was being grumpy and unreasonable I think I realise now it was more about his own dignity and trying to protect us. Especially the kids. He really was adverse to the kids visiting him at the end

Your post says it all FC. Thank you for your insight.
The grumpy old man thing is Dad playing up to a tee. In fact I have purposely sent his birthday cards late for the last 3 years as he likes something to moan about, so much so he thanks me every year. Not heartless as always phone him on the day.
The dignity thing is typical of his generation and yes he has always been the perfect gentleman.
I would love to marry a man just like my father as I would be so lucky.

dgc can't visit anyway due to germs. My boys go over to do jobs or just knock door when passing. My dd has understood about visiting which is why see is seeing dad tomorrow.

I understand the shut out thing which E has explained to me her own heartbreaking story.

Dad has grown up only every remembering one hug from his own mum. This he told me earlier this year when my uncle died. He and mum were always hugging. We make sure we hold his hand and kiss him every time we leave the house. No hugs as he is in too much pain.
We feel loved even when he says upsetting things.

He has told me how marvelous my sister has been to him but never told her. I did though. We are close sisters.

Oh course he is protecting us. That has been his job since the day we were born and he has done it very well. We have had the trauma of our parents divorcing and dads depression to deal with in the past but to be honest I didn't get to know my dad as a Man until they divorced. It bought us closer together as you will understand. He has also always been a great babysitter and a very confident man with newborns and apparently after we stopped night feeds he was the one who always got up in the night to us. Simply because he wanted to.

I have been chatting to my kids alot about last xmas as my sister and her family went skiing and I took dad to dd house for lunch and then we visited my ex husband in the evening so I could see ds2 and spent a lovely couple of hours chatting to ex, his wife (dd godmother) and my ex mum in Law.
We have some really great times to remember to help get us through the harder time ahead.

Hi tiger. It's good to hear from you hun. Miss the tales of your boss whatever next him keeping you busy.

oh the tales of him are still there, i just dont have time to regale you lot of them:D... although i'll tell you one from Thursday. Our new office has strip lighting in. one starts flickering and is quite annoying. He pipes up "will you sort that?". Yeah, course, cos i can jump up onto the ceiling and whip it out, shall i stick a broom up my behind and sweep the floor whilst im at it sir?? Obviously, they were just my thoughts, not spoken words :rotfl:. Reception tell me their ladders were stolen (!) so i then have to mess around finding some online at B&Q. They were over 1m in length and i wondered if i'd get them in the car. He then tells me that of course i will, just put the back seats down. I tell him I dont know how to do that.... so he openly laughs at me in front of people :eek: Until i wipe the smirk off his face by telling him I've never had a need to before, anything large to be transported was in our other car and i just took the roof off as it was a convertible. The doofus then tells me he'll "show me" how to put the seat down, whilst rolling his eyes...

We get to the car, and it turns out the back seats don't come down :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: He's a @@ck sometimes :rotfl: Water off a duck's back now though.

I did get the ladders in the car by the way, and left them beside his desk, for him to deal with the lighting on Monday morning when I'm not in :T He he, it's making me chuckle thinking about his face on monday morning, when the lazy git realises he has to do something himself

How rude :eek:
I was in Sainsburgs, and happened to pass the reduced section, and there was something in the chilled section that was reduced 50% that I fancied. So I put it in my trolley.
Later on i was passing again, and the lady had reduced the same items to 75% off, so obviously I popped the one in my trolley back, and picked up one of the further reduced ones.

She turned round to me and screached 'You cant do that!'
So I politely informed her that it was obvious that I was going to do that, as it was cheaper.
She then told me she would have to throw out the one I put back.
I informed her that if she reduced that one, I would take it instead, she just barked back saying she could not do that, and then proceeded to throw it in the bin!
Stupid stubborn cow! All to prove a point that was lost on me
Not what I would have liked to expect from Sainsburys.

Peeing in your own shower I can sort of understand if necessity requires it, but not in a standard uni shower-over-bath which is usually shared by at least 5 or 6 people _pale_

Far more harmful and potentially dangerous bacteria on every door handle or computer keyboard they're sharing/toching. They could kill, whereas a naturally produced bodily fluid is highly unlikely to do so.

Far worse things happen in hotel bathrooms across the world.

Mind over matter
