    Oh my goodness the pirate ship sounds shamazing!!! I am very jealous of O and a bit sad that jellytot will not have this experience in her small life as I will never be able to provide this! But I also know I could never build what you are planning so I am taking my hat of to you Mrs DIY!!! :heart2:

    Sounds like a great use for the TC's too :D

    And shyspender I forgot about the notes on things like that. All my accounts are named then show the percentage they give in interest etc! :o my fault for forgetting! Thanks for filling in! xxx

    My mood had been steadily getting worse since I got up this morning and I really can't pinpoint why, other than work boring the **** out of me and being the most depressing place to be presently. That coupled with me thinking about money all day has probably not helped. By 4pm, I was in a foul mood, everything at work was irritating me and I was at war with the world. Had lovely cuddles with O which helped, but then his tiredness too over and he unfortunately had to have time out on the step for a while after being a little monkey, I hate doing that, but it does seem to work.


    Tonight I just feel so incredibly sad and the loneliness is kicking in. Without trying to sound pathetic, I just want someone to snuggle with presently and my boy's in bed. :( Guess it's me and the cushion then!


    I didn't have much of a list tonight, but haven't done any of it, don't feel in the mood and motivation is lacking. I think a bath and bed is the only way forward tonight.


    An early goodnight from me folks

    Sorry for the downer and the time out for the monkey-man.
    Where's that Him character at when you need him?
    Get some good sleep. I don't get lonely often (maybe it's the dog!) but I can understand why having lived with someone for long this will be kicking in for you and is probably a case of riding it out or promptly rebounding heh heh .. but hey duckie.. please don't be saaaaad *snugs*! x

    Thanks Levi ❤️

    The Him now works a 4.5 hour drive away mon-fri, and has his daughter every weekend, so snuggle-time is pretty much non-existent these days. *sigh*. 😥
    Just when it was all starting to feel so lovely too.

    I tell you, life really does have a habit of kicking me in the teeth lately...literally... I just chipped a tooth BRUSHING my teeth!

    😬

    Oh my goodness no!!! How badly? Is it sharp? :(

    Big huge squishy squeeze the life out of you hugs. I wish I was closer :( not that I would be much goo for snuggling, but I could at least throw cushions at you and move your furniture.

    Gutting about Him being so far away and with his daughter all weekends. :( is this permanent? xx

    Tooth's not too bad Lilty, just a tiny slither on one side but my tongue keeps finding it! Back to the dentist for me soon then...

    Oh please come and move furniture with me! I've been looking at a cupboard for two days, deciding in which of two spaces it looks best, but I've moved it so much now I'm doubting my own judgement and no-one else grown up to consult lol.
    Just make sure you throw a small cushion at me though...the big ones are heavy and I bruise easily. ��

    And yep. Pretty permanent. �� Unfortunately, his job is very unique and not many people specialise in it, so he is in demand, but most jobs are far away. To be fair to him, he did try for months to work it so that he would be here more often, but he can't be now.

    As for having his daughter, it's lovely he has her every weekend as that has been a horrible custody case for him, but it does mean there is little adult time and she is a real handful and hard work.

    It's not been much fun lately. ��

    Very sorry about Him. That doesn't sound good at all :(

    And as for the tooth, what a pig!!! :mad: What were you brushing your teeth with hmm? I chomp my tongue stud all of the time and haven't ever chipped a tooth until recently when I did one twice in the space of one meal! xx
