Oh dear Bianca

BiancaCastafiore · 14/04/2008 17:43

We were given a digital frame for Christmas, it's great but we don't have a digital camera atm so haven't got many pictures to use.

Ludaloo · 14/04/2008 17:44

Oh your poor DH It is really awful to have nothing...I know you have your own memories and stuff but nothing quite compares to phot's and things.

DontDreamItBeIt · 14/04/2008 17:45

BiancaCastafiore · 14/04/2008 17:45

Had planned an outing to a farm with a group of friends tomorrow - we were all looking forward to it. Don't feel I can take her after the way she has behaved today Why the hell should we all miss out though?

I would never throw photos out, what about those over the door things that hold loads like this

DontDreamItBeIt · 14/04/2008 18:14

Bianca I know you aren't a terrible mother, and the house will get sorted when you are ready. Your outing tomorrow being called off is a real shame. Is there no other option?

I have lots of photos in the loft to sort at some point in the future, too. I need o write on the backs of themso my descendants don't ave the problem of not knowig who everyone is, too.

My cousin and I went through grandmas old photos with her when she was in her 90s and wrote on them. There is no one left who remembers some of them now.

BiancaCastafiore · 14/04/2008 18:21

Dh has come home with chocolate so I'm feeling better already

I have been and spoken to dd (they are both in bed - ds is already asleep!) and said I will be thinking very hard this evening about whether we should all miss out on the trip just because she was grumpy today...she said she'd "triple promise" to not be grumpy in the morning....we'll see....
Not sure what else I can do. She has been dreadful.
I spent suppertime crying, I feel so guilty taht she feels so angry sometimes - what have I done wrong?

scattyspice · 14/04/2008 19:13

Hi All.

Haven't been around for a while as have had horrible virus thingy (DCs had it too). Still feeling pretty flat. Not up to flying just now so will drop out for a while. Hope you all ok (esp Bianca, sounds like things getting on top of you too, take care).

Scatty

DontDreamItBeIt · 14/04/2008 20:18

Scatty - I hope you all feel better soon. You don't have to actually FLY to post on here you know. You're always welcome for a chat, too

I hope you do go tomorrow, Bianca, even if it is on the understanding that the fist sign of acting up means you will leave.
You can't be responsible for someone elses emotions....even your own child. All you can do is keep helping her to deal with it more appropriately.

DontDreamItBeIt · 14/04/2008 20:22

Evening all.
Haven't read the thread, sorry.

Not got much done this morning as usual!
DD's had a party to go to this afternoon so i was hoping to have a couple of hours peace to clear up! DD1 kept crying so i ended up staying. She really struggles with me leaving her. Still have tears at school. it isn't like it was a stange house either. It is her best friends house where she has been a few times.

tortoise · 14/04/2008 20:49

And i discovered someone i thought was miss perfect house keeper with the perfect house, isn't so perfect lol!
There were loads of dusty cobwebs behind their massive (god knows how many inch) plasma screen!! And it is low enough on the wall to see and remove them easily!

DontDreamItBeIt · 14/04/2008 20:53

Tortoise

Your dd1 is still only a baby....she will get more confident.

tortoise · 14/04/2008 20:57

I hope so jas. She always says she will miss me. I guess some of that is down to her Dad leaving.
