    Yes I was wondering about the latter.  He has to go @efes_shareholder love Humdinger xx 
    Yes , he hasnt discussed with me anything about staying - only his father who batted it to me

    His father has said he will talk to him but potentially the absence of an approach to me since the convo with his dad may mean he has a plan B - Either way I have made it perfectly clear I do not wish to be approached with any such request , I have already said WHAT I NEED and now wanting to push this is in my view disrespectful

    Either way , his dad has to tell him its not on option.

    so yesterday did end up as a spend day , my friend told me about the 50% uber fresh deal on mondays so I ordered quite a bit of fruit and veg.
    We get through a lot anyway with meals and more so since the juicing. I will remove what has already been purchased from the weekly shopping basket and think going forward the fruit and veg will be coming on a monday.

    My account is looking healthy as my sister owed me a bit of money for our trip away next weekend which she has now paid but I havent started shopping for the C word yet.

    Dinner tonight , Chilli pasta bake - I didn't cook last night as my stomach was playing up ( I am pretty sure STRESS is playing a part in this) and instead had a bowl of carrot and lentil soup that I had knocked up during the day - MC  snored away in his room ALL afternoon yesterday , only emerging to eat left overs with his dad and then went back to bed. I am now so cynical that I am not sure this was not done for affect , to add weight to being down and needing support , not being in a good head space but its much more likely to be a come down after too much sniffing over the weekend !!! A couple of weeks ago , he sat at the table sniffing so much we thought he was crying , when we asked about his welfare he said he was coming down with a cold ...................as if by miracle the sniffing vanished and the following day nasal sprays were delivered......................I'm not always right but you can't kid a kidder mate !!!!!!
    He has gone to work today , thank the lord 

    This evening I will try and make the gym , and then I need to go our local curry house and pay a deposit for Xmas day - its just me , NM , my two youngest and one of their partners so we are going to try something new and head out for curry  - its walking distance and really reasonable and takes all the stress out of making sure there is a xmas dinner in the house etc.
    I was waiting on my sister to say whether she was coming , which they are going local so hopefully the place can still accomodate us
