Morning all, well the cafe thread is just about full so here's the new thread.

Just a reminder Florence has made pastries over night, the garden is open with the sensory garden, the cat area (with catnip bush) is available and feel free to cool your feet int the water feature.

Chocolate....orange....cheesecake Cake ....wow that sound amazing mog!

sashh · 17/06/2020 04:53

Morning all.

@mogloveseggs can you get the recipe? It's for Florence of course?

I think we all need cheesecake so lets have that for breakfast.

Morning sashh.

Does that mean Florence gets to eat it all if she makes it?

mogloveseggs · 17/06/2020 07:26

Morning
I will ask her sassh

NoGravyForYou · 17/06/2020 07:33

Morning all! Cheesecake is amazing idea. Didn't sleep a wink.

Frownette · 17/06/2020 07:36

Are you feeling a bit better?

sashh · 17/06/2020 07:40

Oh no @NoGravyForYou

I'm sleeping much better since the bedroom aircon broke. I swapped the living room aircon, it is much quieter and the thermostat works.

NoGravyForYou · 17/06/2020 07:44

@Frownette - honestly no. Last night I found the social medias of the BF of the other woman and I'm literally sitting on my hands to stop myself messaging him. He has no idea and it's making me feel sick.

NoGravyForYou · 17/06/2020 07:45

That's great @sashh! Glad you're finally starting to get some decent sleep!

sashh · 17/06/2020 08:55

@NoGravyForYou I first read that as 'best friend' then I reread it.

Not sure I could sit on my hands.

If you were him would you want to know?

OP posts:
NoGravyForYou · 17/06/2020 09:02

Yes I would want to know and I feel awful that he doesn't know. It would very obviously be me who told him. At current ex and I are being civil and working together to get the house sorted. I'm not sure if I can deal with the fall out of ex finding out I told the boyfriend. They are also in a long term relationship by the looks of it, even longer than we were I think.

I shall ponder it some more over cheesecake. What flavours do we have?

Frownette · 17/06/2020 09:51

They both sound as bad as each other, what utter shits.

Will you be able to have a catnap later?

NoGravyForYou · 17/06/2020 10:03

I was doing really well up until today 😭 Sick to the back teeth of shitty people.

Yes hopefully should be able to get a nap later on, the kids I mind go home early today 🤞🏻

sashh · 17/06/2020 12:26

@NoGravyForYou I think you need a Bailey's cheesecake.

OP posts:
NoGravyForYou · 17/06/2020 14:26

That sounds perfect! Thanks @sashh

mogloveseggs · 17/06/2020 14:37

@NoGravyForYou they are utter tossers. I think I'd wait until I was sorted though and then tell him.

NoGravyForYou · 17/06/2020 14:44

This is incredibly revealing in case anyone I know is in here, but we seem to be regulars at this stage. They're a pair of tossers who live in different countries and have never even met each other, yet are so madly in love that they think someone should write a movie about them 🤮🤮 I can't ever imagine throwing away a 10 year relationship for someone I've never even touched!!

Thanks so much for all the kind words and cakes and pastries in here, it's really been keeping me sane! I'll be in garden eating all the cheesecake 🤣

crazycatlady7 · 18/06/2020 03:34

Hello all,

Is there any cheesecake left? Baby has had an awful night the night before- ended up using my phone for white noise... tonight is much better but he's still up a lot, and I charged his batteries for his white noise machine.

Glad to see your sleeping better @sashh and sorry to see your having a rough time @NoGravyForYou. Hoping today looks better.... although the weather isn't looking great.

Frownette · 18/06/2020 03:58

What, with these greedy gullets? Hope baby settles soon.

sashh · 18/06/2020 05:19

Morning all.

Good morning, still sleeping a bit better?
