it won't accept any more messages ladies. As you can see I decided it was time to get less picky.
Lou, I hope you didn't leave your phillips

I bought a lovely bra/knickers set from Tescos last week perfect fit.

I have lost the knickers though - somewhere in my bedroom. Weird. When I next went there (Tescos) all the matching ones had aslo disappeared. Not sure they could have really sold out in one day.

lou33 · 07/11/2009 12:59

yes it was me who was braless on the last thread

oh janos, are you ok? he's a nob of the highest order, what a fool

i had a very nice time last night, he got here about 5.30, and left about 10 this morning

we stayed in eating drinking and watching films, amongst other things

he liked the toy

Hi ladies, hope ur all having a good weekend.

I'm off out with the girls tonight so looking foward to that. Went on a date wednesday night which was good, nice bloke but not sure if there was a spark. Prob will go out with him again if he asks cos u never know do u. No more dates planned tho. getting a bit bored with pof not sure whether to try a site where u have to pay?

Janos-Sorry to hear bout u and exbf

Lou-Glad u had a nice night with lb

Belle-Dont know how ur keeping sane with all this with gb, he does sound like he really likes you but is it enough for him to stop messing u about?!

monty- back

Eve-rofl bra less!

Scl-Did u reply to samename yet?

Hi to anyone else Ive missed

A little update and apology for absense....
We move house on Tuesday. It's a bit mad here..

.. and ex is more unreasonable than ever, if that's possible.

NM is coming over tomorrow to meet dd we are going to the park with bikes, and I'm going to cook a (fairly easy) roast dinner. DD will be fine as we have people over all the time to do this or similar things, but BF is nervous... bless...

Mum thinks he sounds lovely which is great, tbh in my whole life she's never said that before!

Work is busy, fingers crossed the move is straightforward.

notevenamousie · 07/11/2009 14:35

By "people" I meant other friends, family, colleages, not people Mummy is madly in love with going out with.

lou33 · 07/11/2009 15:33

i meant to add i may go over there tomorrow night, exh will take kids to school monday morning for me, if i do

notevenamousie · 07/11/2009 15:37

lou, I really hope you enjoyed sharing it too xxxxx

lou33 · 07/11/2009 17:57

oh yes

Remotew · 07/11/2009 18:58

Think I remember you going braless Lou, but mind made the talk roundup so there.

Glad the massager was useful.

I've just let DD snip my hair ala moneytail cut. It look great, dyed it too.

Going out for a meal with platonic friend tonight. Shame it's not with some hunk. Oh had a new message on POF, tall, 41, lives quite near sounds very interesting perhaps a bit bohemien for me (sp) will see!!

Remotew · 07/11/2009 18:58

ponytail wtf did moneytail come from

lou33 · 07/11/2009 19:08

lol eve

have fun tonight

lou33 · 07/11/2009 19:14

i thought i was just over tired from last night, when i felt crap this morning, but i have had TWO naps today and can feel my glands up round my neck and hurt in places i wouldnt expect to be hurting, tbh

i was going to take the kids to the fireworks but i feel really ropey

they are all being fine about it aside from ds1 who is screaming at me telling me i am a useless mother and always letting him down

of course he forgets the fact i have had a weeks of them being sick and ds2 is recovering from sine flu

i'm just rubbish and lie all the time according to him

if i feel like this tomorrow i wont be going to see lb

thesouthsbelle · 07/11/2009 21:52

lou - glad you and LB had fun with the massage toys.

eve - you'll have to pout a pick on with your new hair do!

mousie - glad you're still getting on & loved up with NM.

betty - I don't know what the hell is going on with him. after last nights going's on/todays. He says he's 100% but then he feels low, and when I said right well if thats the case then why won't you just leave me alone & let me walk away he snapped at me was heart v head. - and he usually (typically) listens to his head and not his heart. anyhow hope your date's gone well.

what's everyone else done? next door sounds to be having a right party. lol. and x factor was a bit crap today as well.

thesouthsbelle · 07/11/2009 21:56

(that's me saying that him listens to his head btw not him saying it)

thesouthsbelle · 07/11/2009 21:56

(put a pic eve! lol)

Remotew · 07/11/2009 23:05

lol might do on facebook. Not on here!! Noooo.

Tied it up tonight with a side fringe. DD's friends, (they are next door at a party) said it looked great. Platonic friend said he didn't like it tied up, hello it wasn't for his benefit, peed me off though.

Well this is the first and last time you will see me mention the unmentionable but DD is at the neighbours, they have an annual firework party, I'm never invited as the neighbour is a cousin of the sperm donor. I came back early tonight and just knowing he is a few feet away makes me so annoyed. Bless her, DD deserved so much better than that excuse for a dad. I would love to go over there now and tell him what I think. It's been years since I've spoken to him.

Just needed a vent.

lou33 · 07/11/2009 23:27

vent away eve

i want to see a pic of the new hair too!

lb just called, i was debating about whether or not to go over for the night given the distance and the amount of time we will have together, but i think i will

he briefly met another couple of my friends last night too, he got approval

Remotew · 07/11/2009 23:56

It's a pain the distance thing isn't it? When they are on your doorstep it's too close for comfort and when they are far away it's too far. Why is life so complicated.

Guess you have to work out if you want to make the effort. Yeah of course you do. Get yourself on the road tomorrow.

lou33 · 08/11/2009 12:30

it was because i was feeling a bit achey and knackered last night

i have had a good sleep though so i will end up going

i wont get there til about 8.30/9 though, and will be leaving at 7.30 (tho he looked at me in disbelief when i said i would go when he did, he knows what i am like about early starts lol)

i could sleep in if i wanted to i guess, and just wave him off from under the duvet

lou33 · 08/11/2009 13:23

though maybe i wont be going now, ds1 is giving me such grief about going away it doesnt seem worth the hassle

Remotew · 08/11/2009 13:36

I feel your pain Lou, you know how it is for me.

Ended up chatting to a friend on fb last night. DD was still at the party and he told me where he lived. I said I could chuck a stone from here so he invited me round. Told him to come here instead so ended up chatting till 3 in the morning. DD was home by the time he found my house and gave us a good telling off for keeping her awake. Think this might put him off! As usual.

Anyway it was nice to have a bit of company even if nothing comes of it.

I've got one abroad, one 30 mins away and one a few streets away!

lou33 · 08/11/2009 13:57

good for you eve, why not eh?

i am planning on going but i am in two minds, i have to admit

anyway i have to get on, do some food shopping, get dd1 and exh, come back and get dinner ready uniforms washed, shower etc, all before 7

at least the house is still pretty tidy from friday night

Betty79 · 08/11/2009 19:10

glad ur house is tidy lou, mine looks like a bombs hit it and I've felt soooo rough today after my night out last night! Did have a good night tho only just managed to eat something, and realised I didnt put school clothes in the wash yet!! So got all that to do before bed.

Belle-I wasnt on a date just out with the girls!

Lou-hope ur feeling better

Eve-Sounds like u had a good night, how old is ur dd? I'm assuming teenager? Ive got all that 2 come with 2 girls only 20 months apart lol

Mousie-Hope things went well introuducing nm to dd

Janos · 08/11/2009 20:44

Oh lous orry you are feeling crappy but hope yuo have a good eve with lb

I'm feeling very much better and kind of relieved about the exbf, with a little residual sadness. A good sign.

Glad you had a nice night with your friend eve. Sometimes it's nice just to have some adult company. I have a few years to fo before DS hits teenager-dom
