just wondering if this has been done before...

I have 2 Dcs (2 & 5) and am bringing them up by myself (H allowed to have phone contact only due to his fuck wittery {I love that phrase Blush Grin})

Sometimes its soooo hard doing it by myself Sad

DS had parents evening today and although his comments from teachers were fab most all of the other parents were couples.

Sometimes it hits me that I have to do everything myself Sad

Funeral is thursday, Mum & Dad back to France Thursday night. Sad

Have heard from D already....good yes? OMG this is bad isn't it....but in a hot way Grin. He's gorgeous, about 6'3, dark skin, hair etc...sigh. But he's very shy...i may need help with this one!

simpson · 21/02/2011 12:44

my onlinelover has disappeared Confused

Scorps · 21/02/2011 14:20

disappeared?! removed a profile you mean? How odd. no other way of contact?

Jellykat · 21/02/2011 16:25

JFTO Hiya!
Huh? What a weird thing to do..Were you chatting regularly up until then? Hmm

AAaaaww Scorps,that's bloody lovely!
Take no notice of me and my 'be careful' advice, i'm a right cynical old bird at the mo. but i certainly wasn't when i was younger!! and i bet if i met someone now,i'd go for it with wild abandon! - Grin

Scorps · 21/02/2011 18:30

Yes, everyone says it's good i heard from him so quickly, it was nice and chatty. He's very shy so it's hard to read between his lines, but i know lots of people that know him so i know enough Grin. I'm scared though after being treated that way before, I'm scared that i really like him already.

Jellykat · 21/02/2011 19:02

Well if you have mutual friends,and you know his previous history - which is positive, that's one hell of a good start! Grin

simpson · 21/02/2011 19:40

scorps - when are you seeing him again??

Good day here, potty training going well (no accidents today Grin) and I took DC to a class at the local childrens centre to keep them busy.

DD even managed to say she needd a wee right in the middle of the sing song at the childrens centre so was not too distracted iyswim.

Unfortunately nothing much planned tomorrow so think it might be a looong day

Tom Clarkson = too short for me Grin
Lovely twinkly eyes though..

simpson · 21/02/2011 23:00

nice arms, nice eyes, nice chest....

Jellykat · 21/02/2011 23:32

PMSL ... Grin

Scorps · 22/02/2011 10:17

No I can't do shortness - you need someone to talk to Wink

Seeing him again - I don't know. He's working long shifts this week and away on the weekend. He's really shy and so am I....I'm the more forward one which is very odd! I keep having flashbacks......did I mention how hot he is?! Grin and sweet. Oh no, I think I like him, as in actual like. Oh dear.

Not much going on today again, tesco delivery, new phone, that's about it. Kids are being great this half term. I even cleaned out my monster size fridge!

simpson · 22/02/2011 16:21

scorps -Envy on the new phone....

Have had a rethink on the shortness thing Grin as H is short so maybe that should tell me something!! Grin Grin

Jellykat · 22/02/2011 17:03

Yes, DS2s dad is short..now i don't mean to be heightest but some short men can be right nasty buggers,like little Jack Russells they are! Grin

I don't think i will be hearing from XP again,he texted a load of crap this morning, i finally snapped, and very articulately went for his jugular, metaphorically speaking..I can guarantee he won't be back!

Oo I saw this local guy on a dating website,but he's not logged in since Nov. I swear i was walking behind him in town today-(i'm in Wales, there aren't many 6'2" tall men here)..So i'm walking behind him,pushing old ladies outta the way to keep up..but then i realized if i did overtake,it would be impossible just to casually turn around and see his face,and even if i did spin around like wonder women,he'd only think i was deranged!

So i had to let him go Sad - maybe next time cupid can plan it so that i'm walking towards him!..Oh, and am having a 'good hair' day too.Grin

simpson · 22/02/2011 17:57

"little man syndrome" Grin Grin Truely horrid men..

Sorry but I did PMSL at you pushing old ladies out of the way Grin Grin

Scorps · 22/02/2011 19:24

Short men always have flashier cars than most - penis extensions Grin

Anyway, good day here, kids been great. Seeing Mum tomorrow and then funeral Thursday.

Am still giddy in my mind from the weekend Grin Grin. I think I'm driving everyone mad!!
