Why Walk When You Can Fly

Good morning,
What horrible weather we have today, the motorway was horrendous. I hate driving past the lorries due to the spray :eek:
I went through everything that is due to come out, so I know where we are up to. It usually helps me with the budgeting and when I go through my app too.
I need to nip to Tesco on the way home tonight for stuff for dinner, I was going to go to Asda at lunchtime but I am not going out in this weather unless I need to.
I have my eye on two (possibly three) tapestries on eBay, two I definitely would like to do and one I definitely want to do. My selection of tapestries would be almost complete then of things I want to do.
My lovely friend's wife is in hospital, she is very poorlyI think most of it is due to her age and lack of mobility, fingers crossed she is on the mend and home to him soon.

Hope the weather improves, I drove to a meeting 15 miles away yesterday and couldn't believe it when I saw how much snow had fallen! We had a bit of rain, chilly today though.
Good news on the lunches, and budgeting.
Count down to your holiday, hooray!

I hope the weather was better for your drive home and that you get the tapestries you want on Ebay.
Not long now until you're on holiday.

Dh and I have had a massive argument in front of the kids. Dh wants a divorce. Said to go to the bank tomorrow to sort out my own CA for my salary to be paid in to.
I don't want a divorce.
Dh saud he's going to decorate and the house will be on the market by tge end of next week and I'd better find a good solicitor.0 -
Oh purple had to post now as out in the morning and want to hope that it's all just cross words and things are fixable.
It's so out of the blue and extreme!
Thinking of you and will pop on when I can later.
Take care, H x0 -
Sorry to hear that purple
I hope it was just something said in the heat of the moment, and hope things are better today x

Hi Purple, I haven't been subscribed very long but I have always had the impression from your posts that you and your husband are very much a team.
I hope that whatever caused this is fixable, sending you positive thoughts

I'm so sorry Purplemum. Is that really what DH wants or was it just the heat of the moment? If it is really happening did you see this coming? Did you have any indication that this was in the wind?
I hope you're okay. Let us know what's happening and if we can help in any way. I'm so sorry.

Thanks for the messages.
I'm ok and we're not getting a divorce.
Although we've both threatened it in the past, this argument was different to the others.
Things were a bit strained over the weekend but things are sorted.0
