Wednesday 23rd March - What small DFW things will you do today?

SailorSam

I've just been trying to chat some girl up on PoF, when i realised it was the bank holiday weekend, i asked how i could email her an easter egg, she said to keep it in the fridge and we could share when she comes here. I told her that was better still, Tesco will probably have them 75% off next week.

Urgh....have inadvertantly gone over broadband allowance for last month. £30 extra charge pending. Oooft.

Thanks for all your kind words. Didn't get home until 7pm as had to wait for OH to finish work so I had someone with me. She tried intimidating me on the school run today which wasn't very nice. Trying very hard to convince my mum to take us in, I know it's a lot to ask but I am desperate. She doesn't seem too open to the idea just desperate to leave but don't have the funds to do it. Will continue with begging until I am blue in the face. Dreading being on my own tomorrow for school run as OH has to leave to work at 7.15am I haven't eaten properly now for 3 days and constantly feel on edge.

Hi all,

Sailorsam live the Easter egg idea.
Lambing here chugging away. 4.30am arrives daily but the weather has been kind so far. Could do with some warmth on the ground to get some grass. Farmers, we are never happy.
Real work is madly busy.
Staying on budget apart from my crafting splurge. It was very cheering though.
Happy Easter all.

When she walked past she made a point of coming closer towards me, staring at me as she went passed and then continue to watch me walk with my DD. I know doesn't sound much but when you experience that from someone who threatened you not long ago... It's not nice and DD has just thrown up all over her bed not long ago

Really sorry about your daughter. Is she poorly or do you think she is picking up on the situation and feeling worried?
It does sound horrible having someone who has been a bully watching you. From a practical point of view I'd get yourself a personal alarm of some kind. If she does anything you can at least be sure of drawing attention to the situation.
Is there any way you can leave your house at a different time to avoid her?
Please try to eat something. You will only feel much worse without fuel in your system.

Sorry, DD has just thrown up all over her bed for a second time. I am drowning in sick and sheets and towels full of it

I leave my flat earlier on the way to school to avoid her but on the walk back home we seem to always bump into each other. Same as collecting them, the walk home we always bump into her. It's unavoidable in the school grounds.

Lately I go to my mums which is in the opposite direction and wait for OH.

Oh no poor DD. I wonder if school could help in some way if you explained. Like letting your child stay in a bit later so you could pick her up without bumping into the other party.
I wonder if it would calm you (once sick gate is over) to write a list of anything you feel you could do about the situation. It may make you feel better.
