Ok thanks tired although fed up with this weather, it really makes my legs ache all this constant raining/change of weather - I feel like an old lady Grin

Tiredmumno1 · 23/04/2012 12:40

I feel like an old lady all the time Valium Grin I know exactly what you mean about the weather though, are we back into winter now, is that our summer gone do you think? Grin

valiumredhead · 23/04/2012 12:45

I'm ok when it's either hot or cold - but this changeable weather makes my scars and bionic ankle hurt!

It's early yet - I think it'll get hot later on ( but hopefully not TOO hot) Grin

CheerfulYank · 23/04/2012 17:26

Hi everyone! :)

Lots of breaking things eh? I have neither car nor dishwasher, but I'm sure if I did they'd be broken all the time. I have a terrible effect (affect?) on mechanical type things. I broke two laptops recently. No idea how. Hmm

Teaandcakeplease · 23/04/2012 20:23

As it's St George's Day I have to use the smiley Dragon

Lovely fwb lands tonight, after having not seen him since the 5th April, I am feeling happy. But he has a lot on this week. So I hope he can squeeze me in before the weekend

Tiredmumno1 · 24/04/2012 02:16

Oh dear cheerful 2 laptops that's pretty bad

hope it goes the way you want it Smile

Valium I bet it will be bloomin hot when it hits Grin although I am not looking forward to it Hmm

Teaandcakeplease · 24/04/2012 14:30

Think we should be seeing each other tonight. Unless something comes up, otherwise it's Saturday. But I do not feel worried or worked up. This arrangement is a lot better. Knowing where I stand and no longer having unrealistic expectations is good. Although a friend told me I deserve more Blush But Rome wasn't built in a day and I'd like to be patient, enjoy what we do have and see where it goes. I'm happy right now Smile You all remember how upset I was before. I am glad I no longer feel like that and am now at peace. Iyswim?

Tiredmumno1 · 24/04/2012 16:32

I understand what you mean tea Smile it's good that you have found the place that makes you happy right now, and what suits you best, you are absolutely right Rome wasn't built in a day Smile good luck if you do get to see him. Oh and have fun WinkGrin

Teaandcakeplease · 24/04/2012 20:40

Yes he's on his way. Very happy Smile

Tiredmumno1 · 24/04/2012 20:51

Oh goody tea Smile really happy for ya, have a lovely evening, enjoy Grin ......

Teaandcakeplease · 24/04/2012 21:11

I plan to Wink

Tiredmumno1 · 24/04/2012 21:34

Teaandcakeplease · 24/04/2012 21:36

Not for your ears Tiredmum! I will not divulge Grin

Tiredmumno1 · 24/04/2012 21:40

Lol some things are for your own mind eh WinkWink

GrinGrinGrin

Well have a bloody great time anyway Grin

CheerfulYank · 24/04/2012 22:28

Have a good time Tea! As long as you and he are happy with the way things are for now, that's what matters! :)

Teaandcakeplease · 26/04/2012 16:17

My son fell asleep in the lounge and I've left him there. I'll pay for it later when he won't go to bed though Blush

I'm going to ease off posting on fb. I have had a big family fall out happening in the last 24 hours and things said on my fb are being used against me Sad Anyway I don't really want to talk about it but just wanted to tell you.

So as I adjust to not posting my every thought on fb [fbaddict] I shall come here and natter instead Grin

Tiredmumno1 · 26/04/2012 16:42

I am feeling the same for different reasons tea, I am thinking of taking a break as well, not sure I really want to talk about it either, everything is peeing me off lately, anyhow hope everyone is good.

Tea you will definitely be paying for that later Grin

CheerfulYank · 26/04/2012 18:12

Oh no Tea! Family fallouts are terrible. :( Feel free to talk about it if you want.

Picturing your DS sleeping on the couch...awww! He's such a little cutie pie.

valiumredhead · 26/04/2012 18:52

Oh dear Sad

FB is the work of the devil imo - I would be so much happier without it and limit myself to very close friends and family and things STILL annoy the hell out of me and make me paranoid if I am feeling low

I hope you have a good evening tea :)

:)

Tiredmumno1 · 26/04/2012 21:10

Sometimes it worse than the work of the devil Sad

Feel right crappy, not to sure why, probably loads of things mixed together, I just wanna cry Sad

Teaandcakeplease · 26/04/2012 23:40

What's up Tiredmum? Can you unpack a little on here?

valiumredhead · 27/04/2012 08:18

Oh tired love, wassup matey? x

Tiredmumno1 · 27/04/2012 17:16

It just seems to be one thing after another, one huge problem we have again is ds1 he just hasn't settled in this school he was not to be bad for a couple of weeks just a few hiccups, now he comes home in tears nearly everyday he doesn't want to stay at this school, our only other option is the special needs school, we are worried about whether it's the best option now. He has been so upset, but then I also feel bad for splitting the boys up they'll be going to different schools. We have just been through so much already and another hurdle is here again. He has now been referred for a brain scan, which they should have done years ago, just to make sure nothing has been missed. No one ever offers advice or help they just don't give a toss. thank you for listening to this part anyway, much appreciated

Teaandcakeplease · 27/04/2012 18:02

Oh Tiredmum Sad ((hugs)) lovely.

Elmo I see on fb you have a car again. What happened?

ElmoFan · 27/04/2012 22:45

Waves a big HELLO to everyone xxx

I swear you would just Not believe the week i've had :( i won't bore you all with the details but i picked up my new car yesterday . It's HUGE compared to my old car but also very luxurious. It will take me a while to get used to it . Dd has just started back in school after having a strep throat & ear infection .

Tea lovely i'm sorry your getting grief on FB , if these people are annoying maybe could you block them ? I have hardly any of my family on my FB account , only 2 cousins the rest are my very close friends only .

Tiredmum are you ok ? sorry to hear ds1 hasn't settled into his new school :( it must be so hard for you to see him upset every day :( i went through this with my boy & it broke my heart xxxxxx

Hiya valium , hows things ?

Ds has gone to a disco tonight , dh has just left to pick ds & his friends up :)
