    Ive literally had to grow a very thick hide this year and specifically over the last few months, they are literally living their own lives now and we are not a part of it anymore.
    Eldest son will occasionally ring but mostly out of a sense of duty or if his GF has reminded him
    Eldest child is much better, rings and messages a few time each week for proper chats and catch ups but she has been left home for so long now ....

    I know that as soon as they are born you are preparing them and yourself for fledging into the big wide world but even so you don't ever imagine what the reality of this is ...

    I can imagine him doing exactly this, and I doubt we will see him very often when he moves.

    Yet the youngest we wont get rid of him :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Hello, hope everyone is OK.

    Quite a few weeks since I was around due to Mum's fall.
    She came home from the Care Home last week, but wasn't at all well. On Tuesday just got her to bed and was about to leave, when she started screaming my name over and over again, then where am I ? and what's happening to me ? It was so scary, but just tried to reassure her saying she was safe, in bed and I was with her.
    Rang 111 and ambulance arrived in about 5 minutes. after an 8 hour wait to get seen in hospital she was admitted, with very low blood pressure dizziness and dehydration (can't get her to eat or drink much)
    Investigating problems with her heart etc. She is aware of what happened and says she thought she was spinning in the air and was going to fall on me.

    Now back to visiting twice a day, but on Friday got a phone call from hospital. Her bay of 4 patients had been put in isolation as 2 of them have Norovirus. No visiting allowed until they say. so only contact is by phone. So far Mum hasn't got it.

    Sorry to ramble, but feeling very stressed!

    Thinking of you, hope she does not ger Norovirus

    You've missed out, bubbs.:D
    Def not:p
    I totally do not agree.

    OH took me to a Liverpool and Everton game.... board silly.

    Although I did once to to another game and was in the owners box (not sure what it is actually called)....... that was rather different free alcohol, lovely food and no football....
    Not y cup a tea at all:eek:
    Evening luvlies, only one more day to go before DD1 picks up DGD, I am absolutely shattered :rotfl:. Thank gawd she's not crawling yet as I don't think I'd have the energy to get out of bed tomorrow. She's a little doll bless her, such a cutie. We're off to the canaries on Monday for a little bit of winter sunshine, can't wait :)

    ''Twas me re the tape dispenser, they're really solid aren't they. My store has the leaflets in a large display outside the shop so I grabbed a handful as I was passing :D

    Off to bed now as she doesn't always sleep through.
    Have a lovely holiday

    Do Ts BG match Morrie's?
    Just thinking Malibu again. After TM pointing out the extra in mls of the fairy the other day I didn't get any Malibu.
    So I'm thinking 6 bottles of spirits matching Morrie's 2 for £20
    https://groceries.morrisons.com/webshop/promotion/buy-2-for-20/1002526863 then I have a conditional spend so I would have to spend my other £6 on my items making up the numbers probably 11 items to be on the safe side. Although the Morrie's offer is capped at 4 so would the BG know this.
    TIA if anyone knows this info I would be very grateful :D

    Good Morning :)

    Enjoyed my weekend so far , tomorrow back to work and visiting.

    saversue (((X)))

    Not all DS are the same I have only had a couple blips with mine.
    Saying that I didn't want him growing up like I did.
    When he lived at home and went out I didn't want to know where he was but just a text if he wasn't going to be home so I knew he was ok :)

    Last week he was on standby to get home to visit his nan on Saturday night if needed but wasn't but came Sunday even though he needn't have :A

    Been nice having him here this weekend apart from seeing his dad he not told his mates he was up this end :T

    He went visiting his nan yesterday and had a word with male doc/nurse about that female troutface upsetting me. DS got an apology and said she shouldn't have spoken to me like that. I told DS he didn't have to do that but thanked him. He said he not having folk upsetting his mum :D

    Opinions needed as to what is an acceptable time to wait for payment for a eBay item. Auction ended week last Saturday, have contacted buyer who told me they were waiting for orther auctions to end so they could forward them together. Contacted them again and now say that the cost of forwarding has gone up 20 euros and can I wait.
    Told them payment by next Wednesday or I will relist. Am I being fair enough or too soft?

    I dont mess about anymore, i wait 3 days open a case, they either pay and receive item, you cannot relist unless you open a case becuase if they then pay unless you have 2 of the same and omeone bids on the other one you are boogered, also you will get fees back
