    It's hard to say goodbye to a relationship that has lasted that long tea.

    He isn't going to change and you deserve better. Xxx

    BMI is 15 this is very bad I knew it had dropped but hoped would still be OK. I need to get to 16 by next Wednesday or there is a very real chance they will take me in

    Good luck melly.

    I personally think it would not be so bad if you were to be taken in, except that I know you will be worried about the animals.

    Sorry if the above sounds horrendously insensitive. It isn't supposed to - just meant to say that you need a break from your head!

    Elsien, if you look at the blog on the bottom right there is a little white button that says Follow. Click that and enter your email address and then confirm you have received the subscription email.

    Big hugs tea, you can do this. Don't worry, showing spiteful behaviour towards him doesn't mean that you as tea are a spiteful person, it just means you are hurt and angry which is totally justifiable right now and a natural reaction. Big hugs.

    Big hugs for you too, Melly. You know I understand.

    Well, the tree is up, the lights are on it. Not a single bauble is up though. That will be today's job. WaSp is out visiting Milliefleur who is showing every sign of being immensely happy in her care home but still insists to her relatives that she wants to go home asap. As someone wisely said to me on here we think it is her way of making sure she still has control of the situation because everything else indicates she is having the time of her life. She is in the bar most nights until closing time! She has three firm friends and is also helping out with, and I quote "The old dears who need a hand". She is 91 and they are younger than she is. We really hope she can stay and continue to enjoy herself.

    That sounds wonderful, WaS!

    I bet Christmas in the home will be the making of her!

    What a relief for you and WaSp!
    Is BIL still living in her house?

    I'm in a clique! It's a clique of one! It's a unique clique!
    I love :eek:



  • Yes, unfortunately BIL is still there. We think this might be another reason why she is still saying she wants to go home, her house is rented so when she says she won't be returning they will take the house back. It is annoying, he has his own house!

    Well, she'll need her stuff sorted at some stage. Can you trust BIL not to go flogging it all? Sorry if that sounds beastly.

  • Not in the slightest, he is likely to take what he wants and sell the rest. We are hoping social services will get involved and put a stop to that.

    Sounds like your WaSmas preparations are coming on nicely. Also sounds like MF has found a good place there and will have a very enjoyable festive season.

    Currently watching Labyrinth and shouting "you have no power over me" like a lunatic :rotfl:

    Labyrinth! Fantastic!


    I saw it at the cinema the minute it came out.
    I immediately went to a shop and bought the soundtrack and the Video. Still got both!

    Am now going to call the cinema the china me, which is what autocarrot called it.



    Jeez! Can't believe it was 30 years ago! :eek:

  • Can I watch Labyrinth?

    I am still giggling a lot at Wasmas :rotfl:

    The tree is decorated! Only our food order and wrapping WaSp's gifts to go!
