enjoy your night lou.

whats everyone up to this wkd. i'm studying like a demon.

bf away to silverstone.girls have asked me to go.. but i've been really hammering the alcohol lately. thinking i might drive if i do. my skin looks awful due to it.

DONTtouchMUMSspecialJUICE · 02/10/2009 16:49

and.... properly finished things with beachbum, tbh i must have only done half a job as he was still in contact.

.... why does it smart a little to have to finish it 100%!!!

feeling a little after having to spell it out that there would be absolutely no future meet ups after he asked if we could hang out and watch dvd's as friends this wkd

think i really need a shake... my AF is due must be the reasoning.

Are you feeling that you should have left your options open Juicy? If not then don't feel bad. It happens.

thesouthsbelle · 02/10/2009 19:36

agree with eve juicy.

least it's done now and is final.

i'm doing coffee tomorrow with a friend in town. then seeing gymboy apparently. Coming home while he's at hockey & not sure if seeing him sunday at all.

Had a few texts today but nothing since about 1pm, is prob busy, is out at the running presentation today, but usually get a text, so a bit but trying not to be as he knew i'd be going to combat.

what's everyone else up to - oh and have just agreed to do a july butlins reunion

Remotew · 02/10/2009 20:38

belle, butlins reunion? Was that a hol or where you a red coat in a former life.

I've nothing planned for this weekend. Mines is usually 3 days long but I have to work on Monday.

Got a date tonight with a bottle of Pinot but it's already half way through. Bit of time to myself tomorrow afternoon, probably sleep. Nothing except X factor tomorrow night and Pinot's long lost sister, unless anyone rings to invite me out.

Sunday lunch with my sis and nephew, they are going to the social club afterwards so I might slumit grace this dive with my presence if they invite me. I only go once or twice a year if I'm so hard up socially.

notevenamousie · 02/10/2009 21:06

DD with her dad
BF on a night out with friends, planned for months, fair enough with me. Seeing him tomorrow, I hope.
Need to break my not-too-fast cycle.
It's hard tho.
Done lots of work tonight and had a drink with DD away. Seems strange - early night seems wise!

Remotew · 02/10/2009 21:26

Agree Mousie, catch up on some me time and sleep.

passmyglassplease · 02/10/2009 21:31

I have been at the "millionaires boot camp" today at the O2 and will be there tomorrow, am hoping that I get an idea that helps me make a million!

Since starting work at the beginning of Sept I feel like I haven't had any time to myself, but tomorrow eve am out at a black tie event sans bf, should be a good laugh.

bf has been allocated Sunday as his day! he has very gracefully accepted his allocation for the week

I believe we have reached a happy compromise.

Remotew · 02/10/2009 21:40

pmgp, your life sounds very glamourous compared to mine this weekend.

Hope you have a good time on Sunday. PS any pics on fb of marathon man?

passmyglassplease · 02/10/2009 21:53

yes eve he is on my list of friends (at the bottom), the clue is that his name is very american sounding!

Remotew · 02/10/2009 21:56

Will check it out tomorrow

thesouthsbelle · 03/10/2009 07:36

eve - yes i was a red coat - well I worked in the ents dept, and also behind the bar as well. we worked 40 hours in 3 days at one point was a killer! lol. can't wait now i've finally decided from fri to monday am getting severly drunk with the girls! just hope I can keep up still - althou we're all mums now, but back in the bay we would go to work for half 8 come home for 5 and get out drinking at 6 latest, then fall in the door at about 4/5am. best 6 months of my life (well I think it was can't really remember it lol)

pmg - glad you sound really happy.

I ended up having 2 texts from gymboy, last one said he'd ring later but he didn't - good job didn't wait up lol. still turns out he's won a metal in the running club for best improver so am dead chuffed for him (found out via FB thou). phone's really playing up at the mo, took me 2 hours to get each message thru.

DONTtouchMUMSspecialJUICE · 03/10/2009 08:47

morning belle - i had skin full last night. so tonight i think i will just lay low and study. have a night to myself. dvd's chill out.

i'll add you on fb too.

DONTtouchMUMSspecialJUICE · 03/10/2009 08:56

belle - have emailed you - hunt me down on FB so i can be nosey put a face to the name.

thesouthsbelle · 03/10/2009 08:59

ok will do hang on - jsut playing about with my farm at the minute.

you must excuse all of the random drunkard pics! lol. (and i'm not that fat any more - only 1 more stone to go until I'm relatively happy with my weight)

DONTtouchMUMSspecialJUICE · 03/10/2009 09:16

belle - my photo's have ones of me 8 stone heavier

and... not to mention drunken noir photo's

lou33 · 03/10/2009 15:58

well i got back about an hour or so ago, and i have to say we had an absolutely brilliant time

it took me half an hour longer than normal to get there due to traffic

i met one of his closest friends who was a really nice guy, he stayed chatting for about an hour or so , then sent lb a text saying he approved of me lol

he cooked me dinner when his friend left, which was v tasty and plied me with alcohol , not that it took much persuading

we had lots of laughs and some serious chats

during one i mentioned i was aware that i was most probably a rebound thing cos of his wife, but still thought it was worth it cos we have so much fun

he was horrified that i thought he might view me in that way and said i was very definitely not, then went on to list why i was wrong

so i guess he should be promoted to new man?

we didnt get to sleep til 4am , and he had to go get his son at 11, but i was still too tired to make the drive home, so he let me sleep in and i let myself out when i was ready to go

i feel absolutely knackered but smiled the whole drive home

OP posts:
lou33 · 03/10/2009 15:59

oh and his friend invited me to go along with lb to a party that way in november

OP posts:
DONTtouchMUMSspecialJUICE · 03/10/2009 18:13

oh sounds fab lou - glad you had a good time even with your injuries

lou33 · 03/10/2009 18:45

funnily enough my back didnt bother me at all, his abscess was playing up on and off but i distracted him

i just realised i left my jacket there, so i have to go back and get it at some point

i didnt do it on purpose honest lol

i really did have a great time, he said he wished we had another day together, so at some point once my kids are able ot stay with their father we are going to arrange that

i drove home smiling the entire 90 miles lol

i got told off for trying to help with the cooking, he said it was my time ff from doing anything but being looked after as i was his guest and he decided i needed a break from anything but having fun

OP posts:
lou33 · 03/10/2009 18:48

i am repeating myself i just noticed, i'm still tired

seizing up lol

thesouthsbelle · 03/10/2009 19:47

woohoo go lou you have a NM!!!

have spent the afternoon with gymboy - who caught me on the hop so had to run out sooner than I would have done. have just come home for a bit to let him get his flat tidy n stuff & then back off over to his/out for the night. possibly might keep him as NG but still deciding might keep him back as gymboy for a bit longer.

Remotew · 03/10/2009 20:03

Lou congrats on getting to NM status.
