  • So as I've mentioned, today was a NSD. Grandma being poorly and DS1 being asked round to a friends house meant that we changed some plans. We have been to my Mum's for a bit but obviously that didn't cost anything :p.

    DH and I had a bit of a fall out this afternoon. I didn't want him to do something but he did it anyway. :mad::mad:. Bit fed up about that, but otherwise today has been better mood wise for me.

    Hi Lucky, I had a set-to with DH this morning because he wouldn't bring me a cup of tea. He boiled it up into a mess of stew. I said it was unfair to block my small pleasure because he wanted to watch the ****ing tennis. I know it's minor stuff, so why do I expect him to see how much difference it makes??? Tell me to stop whinging, I know you have much more to put up with!
    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?

    Just caught up with this, as not read a lot the last few days. Well done on so many NSD's, I am hoping to have a few for the rest of the week, as didn't manage one today.

    Hope everything is good with all the family now and grandma will soon be on the mend. It can be worrying, my mum had bad chest infection a while ago and it does seem to take them a while to pick up when they are elderly. Sending her hugs and good wishes anyway. Don't know if she would inhale oils, but T Tree and Euculyptus are very good fro chesty complaints.

  • Heh heh Satchmo, no point crying over stewed tea! Annoying when you feel undervalued though!

    Ploppy, thank you for your suggestion, I'll pass the info on to Grandma.

    Today has been good so far. Gym this morning then Mr T's and home for lunch and a shower. DH then went to MiL's and I went to a friends for a cuppa and a natter which was fab. I'm off to Clubbercise in half an hour too! Get me with 2 lots of time to myself in one day! I'm usually lucky to get that in a week!!

    Hope you had a fab time at Clubbercise. I so like the sound of it. You sound so much more positive I'm pleased to see x
    I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)
  • Thank you both Xx

    Clubbercise was awesome, a real boost :D.

    Forgot to say earlier, I decided I would try to do something nice for others every day. Today I bought some extra things with my shopping and put it in the Foodbank collection area instore. Xx
