Sit there - - >
And let me give you a good kicking.
It seems to be the day for it :)

I am a SAHM of school age children.
I am a student with the OU ( in Scotland I get my fees paid as I have no personal income).
I run and walk the dog.
DH, bless him, thinks it's all nonsense, people should do what they like!
Oh, and I used to be a doctor but stopped because I hated it - cue DM 'Well that was a waste of money wasn't it'!

Ready for kicking now...

NataliaOsipova · 19/02/2018 19:23

If I have sex with my husband on a Sunday and then I transfer money from his bank account to mine on a Monday does that make me a prostitute or a escort??

It makes you a banker!!! Always ask for cash. Cash is king 😜

AlcoholicsUnanimous · 19/02/2018 19:31

Don't kick me too hard, I don't want to end up in hospital given that I'm a scrounger who contributes nothing to the country.

MrsKoala · 19/02/2018 19:33

I'm the worst prossie ever. I don't even have sex with DH (much) and i still take all his money! Poor poor DH. Cuckolded into marrying me

Oddsocksforeveryone · 19/02/2018 19:36

Signing in for kicking and DC swap to legitimise my choices.
4dc here. (Baby, toddler, 6yo, 8yo, including housework etc it feels like more of a zookeeper role than childcare to be honest)

DuckAndPancakes · 19/02/2018 19:37

Oh hello.

Stay at home Mum here. Also getting benefits but OH works. Technically I’m entitled to sick benefits but I don’t claim them because jumping through those hoops isn’t worth it.

Where in the queue am i for my kicking?

RemainOptimistic · 19/02/2018 20:16

I'm part time wohm so one of those uncommitted ones, if I get my kicking on Thursday how long will it last me for? I'd like my full time wohm colleague to stop her attempts to make my job horrid

Afreshcuppateaplease · 19/02/2018 20:19

SAHM since christmas! Havent been kicked yet am i missing out?

bettytaghetti · 19/02/2018 20:44

Is there a ticket machine so we know where we are in the queue or is it like one of those embarrassing signs in the doctors' waiting room that announces your name to the whole world that you're in for your haemorrhoids to be looked at?

MrsKoala surely the ones with cleaners, nannies, gardeners etc are managerial level SAHMs because they have delegating skills? v jealous since I'm absolutely hopeless in that department

I don't watch daytime TV so am I even a real SAHM? Am I a sham sahm?!

Re Open learning, just been browsing the courses and there is one on Analysing Skidmarks Grin.

mrsreynolds · 19/02/2018 21:10

I don't watch daytime tv either
But I have Netflix, Amazon video and now tv 😁

NataliaOsipova · 19/02/2018 21:25

'I've been recording the first series of ER on CBS drama'

Guilty as charged....!

JustTerfingAlong1 · 19/02/2018 21:38

I had a look at that open learning as well - sorry to detours bit, but am I being thick as I can only see it teeny tiny (only have internet access on my phone) it won't expand or zoom. Would love to occasionally do a bit of self improvement if trapped under a sleeping toddler instead of endlessly MNing

cannotmakemymindup · 19/02/2018 21:58

I never knew that I needed two kickings due to bring part-time! Please assist me and let me know when kicking is due so i can sort my work out.

JustTerfingAlong1 · 19/02/2018 21:59

Ooh much better thanks Flowers

I obviously need a free course in how to access a course.....Hmm. Grin
