    Morning All, how is everyone?

    Thanks Beanielou, feeling a bit better today. OH kept moaning last night about washing not put away and that he!!!8217;s got no storage, he!!!8217;s got double what I and LO have, and that he couldn!!!8217;t get into his wardrobe as there was a bag in front of it! Yet he couldn!!!8217;t move it to one side! Got some Christmas money for LO to get a dress/outfit which I may go get later.

    Mnd the house still needs stuff done before I can sell it. It feels like I!!!8217;m spending money like water trying to pay 2 lots of bills. He keeps saying he!!!8217;ll do stuff then makes excuses or blames me for having !!!8216;stuff!!!8217; (he actually has more than me).

  • Hi, Uniscot, is any of the work on the house stuff you can do? I know it will be tough with everything else and the LO, but you will at least be making a start on it, and you never know - Somebody might actually be shamed into doing something!

    I've retired now so when I've finished my wife's list of jobs I will get the train up and help you with the jobs!
    You will have a long wait though, stuff gets added to my list every day.
    Seriously, good luck to you, you deserve some
