Right, I'm off to bed. I will be awoken by two small people with very sharp elbows very early no doubt.

Night all x

I agree it is fat too early, need to drop DS at nursery and then plod on into work (feels very weird saying that)

Morning all.

mittz · 04/08/2010 07:39

Yes, I decided to not set my alarm ths morning so D woke at 5.45 'muuuu.... I feel sick, I need the buuuucket'

So good morning..

I have tons of work so good to be up really.

How are all?

FluffyCut · 04/08/2010 09:29

morning all. i went to bed at 8pm last night!

thank you for all your comments. i am sooooo confused. you see they really are lovely people, they came and cleaned the kitchen when i had spd, they have dd1 all the time so we can go out/sort the house, they make us dinner all the time so if we're in the area and drop in for a cup of tea they will always say oh stay for dinner. they come over loads and loads to help re drs appts, looking after the children or driving us (i dont drive). I truly think my dad would be horrified if he thought he'd upset me. although now ive typed that i see how stupid it looks when you think about yesterday, he didnt seem horrified then.

BUT, then you have all the comments they make.

i saw a therapist for a while and she said i had an attachment disorder because i never knew whether they were going to be lovely or nasty so was in a constant state of nerves. She said that they weren't evil or wonderful, they were just normal humans who have good and bad in them, or something, it made sense at the time, not so much now

anyway, my dad phoned last night but i was feeding mole. he wanted me to phone back but i didnt so today i will mostly be avoiding the phone. god im like a child

miitz - its dd1 that said that re the screwdriver although actually you have a very good point, she does think im a bit useless and i think some of that stems from hearing my parents constantly say 'mummys rubbish, you ignore her'. they're joking (i think!) but as you say, it doesnt necessarily go over her head.

right. i will stop mentioning it now! (unless they decide to come over and talk to me in which case you'll get a serious of scared posts later, with me hiding upstairs from the door ).

finally found the chihu cant spell that, stupid dog, brooch i made the other day so will photograph later for your amusement.

BitterAndTwistedChoreDodger · 04/08/2010 09:48

Morning.

DeFluff, your last post has made me feel really awful. I understand why you were so upset now when DH was being so up and down. I pray his behaviour was short term enough that it hasn't affected DS on a long term basis or I will never forgive myself.

OP posts:
Lizzylou · 04/08/2010 10:05

Morning, Fluffy, do you think that your Dad has realised that he's upset you?

Bitter, don't feel bad, everything's on the up now and it is all solvable. DS will be fine (though still an eccentric genius I'd wager ).

Mouseface · 04/08/2010 10:06
FluffyCut · 04/08/2010 10:16

i just wrote a long post and mole deleted it

bitter - im sure it wont have affected him, mine was day in day out for 34 years. if your dh is feeling better now then im sure everything will be fine. its good for them to see some stuff if its explained to them i think, like 'sorry mummy shouted she has a migraine' or 'i know daddys crying but its because his friend is ill' etc (my friend is going through this at mo as her husbands dad and grandad died within a week of each other). you could always have a chat with ds and explain that daddy behaved a bit 'off' because he was feeling sad but now is feeling better?

lizzy - more likely my mother has 'had a word', am still avoiding phone, if i answer it i may let out 34 years of ARGHHHH btw your holiday photos were gorgeous.

mouse - brave woman, i havent even bought it.

FluffyCut · 04/08/2010 10:17

i have some diet pills - natural stuff guarana, ginseng and things, i cant take them because they react with ads, any of you lot want them?

Mouseface · 04/08/2010 10:19

Fluffs - wouldn't say no. Have used them before and find they help with the bloating too. If no other takers?

BitterAndTwistedChoreDodger · 04/08/2010 10:23

Yeah, you are probably right DF. We've already had a chat about how Daddy was sad because Nanny died and how from now on we are only going to have kind words.

I guess it just brought it home how I shouldn't have been such an ostrich and let it go on for so long.

I feel like I'm a selfish cow because I was focused on how it was affecting me, rather than the whole family.

I suppose 6 months in the grand scheme of things isn't a lifetime.

DS hasn't helped himself to any food in about 3 weeks, so it obviously was affecting him at the time. His behaviour is getting better and better, but yeah, Lizzy - he is still a cheeky little sod!

I wouldn't have him any other way though. That boy will go far. I think 'eccentric genius' is a nice way to put it.

OP posts:
Lizzylou · 04/08/2010 10:26

See Bitter, it is all OK now and will get better and better, no worries.
I think your DS sounds just fab, so clever and spirited, but then I don't have to live with him

Lizzylou · 04/08/2010 10:27

Have you shredded then Mouse?

BitterAndTwistedChoreDodger · 04/08/2010 10:29

Lizzy!

Mouse - the shred is evil. Please tell me you checked with your physio before doing it, otherwise you really need to 'phone it in.

Lizzy - yes, yesterday. Level 1. My thighs KILL!!! The rest of me is fine though. I have physio and hydro class tomorrow so will just be doing my abs today.

Bitter - agree with Fluffs and Lizzy.....it's hard and you feel guilty when you realise that actually, children pick up more than you think.

And thanks for keeping me company last night, even though I was in bed!!

No harm done. As Fluffs said, this was very short term....not 34 bloody years!!!

DS will be fine. Really, you all will be.

Fluffs - I wish I could say this better but do you think that all of the 'perks' your parents bring outweigh their opinions and behaviour towards you?

Night from hell here, 2-4am spent pleading with DS to sleep. And the DT's kicked in so I have had about 3 hours sleep in total.

Pants.

And MrM is off on a major piss up all day today. Be home very late and pissed. Yuk

DD is out so I am alone.

TODAY MY INTENTION IS NOT TO DRINK!!

Proper AA stylie!!
