[Mrsmadevans]

Well l had to do it lol
Morning all!

301 Vindicated!

No snow here

Teeny bit of snow here.

Have left my long term DP but it was just not working....

Oh hairspray I'm so sorry it'll be hard to start with but things will get better

Oh no, Hairspray.

Did you have your OH check yesterday? Hopefully getting into the new job sooner rather than later will help ease the transition a bit.

Yes had the OH check yesterday and everything should be going through smoothly now - fingers crossed for a start date soon!

I agree, there is so much to sort out now though

Don't stress; you'll get there!

At least you rent, so it will be easy enough to get rid of the house (are you tied into a contract though?). Maybe make a to-do list so you can tick stuff off and see your achievements.

No we are on a monthly rolling contract so I can ditch the house in a month or so
I have so much furniture and stuff that i need to get rid of/store/sell eurgh this is such hassle! Honestly I go through waves of being angry, then upset and then just resigned at how much hassle this is all going to be!

Oh bless you Hairspray.

Hairspray omg l am so sorry this is happening. You are / have been going through a lot lately , look after yourself my dear. At least your job is sorted and you rent so can cut the financial ties quicker.
No snow here and all agog waiting for it .
Have a mega shopio to do today to prepare the elderly NDN and Ma & Pa for the cold weather and snow, must make sure they have their tablets in too. A bit for us too but not a lot really . We can manage, it is when you can't get up to them that you start to worry. If they are ok for food and tablets they can just chill in the house and watch the snow and squabble amongst themselves lol .
Going for a walk just now so will l walk first or shopio first ? What a decision lol.
Take care all have a great day x

I know I never have this much drama in my life! I don't like it I want to go back to being boring!

It will all calm down soon enough, he was seeing someone else and I just didn't have the energy to fight for him any more.

Plus I am still young and pretty big headed so I will find someone new in no time!

My Christmas countdown app must be wrong then? 🤔

Good for you hairspray

Sorry to hear that hairspray, I'm sure you will be much happier in the long run

Shop first Mrs then you can enjoy the walk .

I am eagerly awaiting some snow but there is none yet . My DC are quote "not bothered mum ".....

Hairspray - sorry to hear that, but brave and good decision I am sure xxxx

Hairspray you are still in the bloom of youth , plenty of time and fish in the sea and you are doing the right thing my dear. If he is two timing you now before you marry the rotter ,then you married him and had children it is so much harder to leave then as you know l am sure . Onwards and upwards ! Massive hugs too , l know it must have upset you sweetie .
Done the mega shopio , thank God DD came with me or l would have got myself in a pickle we had 2 trollies and about 20 carriers later lol the NDN and Ma & Pa and us , are safely tucked up with a groaning fridge, freezer and cupboard lol , phew! l supose it is a bit like prep for Christmas, just dawned on me lightbulb
No snow yet we are waiting with baited breath. fully expect to have wasted today preparing for the 'beast from the east' who no doubt will be a NO SHOW lol.
Went for a lovely walk ,beautiful sunny day, very cold and bracing, lovely, came home and scoffed a pile of Braces Welsh cakes and a very strong cuppa tea, gorgeous. It is just beautiful here now the sky is so blue and clear. There is a hang glider taking off on the Blorenge mountain, just opposite our house , he must be absolutely freezing but looking at the perfect conditions l cannot blame him one bit . am slightly but can't bear heights so ......MEH!
To the 'Beast from the East' in the immortal words of Delia Smith my favourite cook of all time 'Let's be having you ' lol !
Hope all ok, take care in this weather .

Blacksmiths, sleeps and days are different, I think!

Hairspray, what a twat. You're well rid of a cheat.

I think we are going by sleeps on the countdown and it is 301 sleeps today . Am I right in thinking that ? On another note..... we are nearly in the 200's!!!! Hells bells where is the time going?

Fluffy l thought it was sleeps thank you !
Yes to him being a twat too.... with knobs on !

It's his knob that was the problem, Mrs!

Here's why...until you've completed a full day, it's the whole day plus x hours, so the extra hours kind of add a day!

Yes to the knob being the problem Fluffy!
Meanwhile in Abergavenny ........

Ours is almost melted now!

Hahahaha thanks fluffy that really made me laugh!

Glad to be of service! 😁
