lol oi!

it needed doing anyway, and xmas is coming etc

anyway it looks lots better but not perfect , thats fine by me though

i think you should give sailor a go too, i am still not convinced by gymboy, he is suspicious to me until i have proof to the contrary

exh is emailing me asking if i will meet him on weds to get the kids xmas gifts from him

dd2 said could he must have got them all from freecycle as he drinks all his money away.....

anyway i said it depended on how the roads are on the day

note he is asking ME to make effort again after saying i dont do anything to help him, i am sure he could have posted them

just heard from my sister and we are going there for boxing day, which is heaven, as its like a day spa going there, the kids disappear into the gazillion rooms she has with her kids and i just get to laze about

mechanic is coming here xmas night after he finishes work

aseriouslyblondemoment · 21/12/2009 14:15

lol lol lol
i do exactly the same!
have a sneeky suspicion that he'll have something decent for the kids lou which will make you
let's face it they usually have some stunt or other up there miserable shitty sleeves
so are you plating up some xmas dinn for mechanic then?

lou33 · 21/12/2009 14:23

lol no i wont be, he is on call but does not have to go in unless he gets a job, so he will go spend it with his mum and come down to me when his shift has finished

exh and i already argued over gifts, if he has spent an equal amount on them all then fine, he can do what he likes

a few weeks ago i was contemplating having him over xmas afternoon but not after how he behaved recently, it would not be relaxing for me even on his best behaviour

he can spend it getting pissed and progressively more angry at some imagined slight i have done

aseriouslyblondemoment · 21/12/2009 14:35

don't blame you frankly after his antics lately
i think they seem to think that we'll somehow soften as it's xmas
you deserve to enjoy the day too

have you noticed lou how both yours and my exh expect us to run around after them esp with lifts etc

Mine also said to me today that we talk a different language - too right we do - I'm from planet normal and hes from planet arsehole.

My dealings with him bring me right down.

And he has also warned me that there 'had better not be a repeat of last years Boxing Day'. This relates apparently to dcs behaviour. FFS I wasn't even there so why's he telling me all this!!

For him it's all about appearances and they will have sensed the tension in him as he struggled in front of his new family. The dcs tell me he is all smiles with them and then talks to them thru gritted teeth. He also used to talk to me through gritted teeth alot of the time.

I had feet up (was ill) and exbf came round to see me.

Good Afternoon ladies

Juice - I had bought dp something a while ago but the surprise was spoiled, (no, not that sort of surprise tut tut ).I will entertain you with the story over the festive season. Yesterday I grabbed a digital camera package in curry's, he has smellies and socks, and the obligatory book. (That Coast tv programme that gorgeous whateverhisnameis does, could listen to him talking all day (and night) lol).
Belle - are you and gb in a committed relationship now? If not, you owe him nothing.

SCL - grrr at your exh and grrr at stalker.

Betty - Mmmm sounds good.

ASBM - grrr at your exh too! But I do think you'll be having a very lovely xmas.

Lou - you have a very well trained one there. You'll have to think about buying him a gift. Lol

I'm at work, despite breaking into the xmas baileys pmsl. I didn't rush getting here though, still snow on the ground where I live and the trains are just... well, trains. [whatever emoticon]. It's raining now so that'll probably clear it.

Oh, and Juice I'll eat my hat if you don't see Irish before Xmas.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 21/12/2009 15:40

you're not drinking at work are you monty
ohh i'll have a lovely xmas alright am making sure of that
btw.i know that i emailed you but for some reason it's not showing on my sent log
quite sure i didn't dream it and i was sober when i sent it?!

OP posts:
lou33 · 21/12/2009 15:51

not sure about well trained, i think he just wanted to come and see me

he is meant to be on call though so i dont know what he will do if he gets a job in the early hours!

he said his ex wife has give her blessing, so to speak, so i wont be getting any death threats via fb (she is on his)

scl our exes are v similar arent they?

last xmas boxing day i recall i burst into tears from the stress of his harassment

fingers crossed i dont have a repeat of that

i could always get mechanic to accidentally run him over on his way to an emergency i guess

LittleMontyontheDustyRoad · 21/12/2009 16:00

ASBM - no I'm not drinking at work just mean I managed to restrain myself with the baileys last night. lol

I have had an email and will answer it forthwith.

The rain here as turned to sleet and snow!

lou33 · 21/12/2009 16:23

oh ffs and as if by magic, he sends me an email being a shit

lou33 · 21/12/2009 17:47

and now mechanic may not be able to come as the weather is appalling and he may have to work all night saving people in their cars by the side of the motorway

he is going to call me in an hour

christmaseve · 21/12/2009 18:17

Lou I am very impressed with your new status and linked aswell.

I went to my new friends lovely house last night. He dug his van out and picked me up. Its a mile uphill to walk back and I couldn't get a taxi so was going to spend the night there. Then DD rang to say a neighbour had locked himself out of this house so we walked back to mine and DD told said neighbour to sleep in the spare room. I didn't even see him but he turned up tonight with a bottle of Rose as a thank you.

New friend walked home in the early hours. He must have slipped on the ice and broken his finger because he's gone silent!!! Damn, even DD was OK with him last night as he made her toast. I'm annoyed as I want to know he is OK, do I text again and tell him I'm worried so reply?

thesouthsbelle · 21/12/2009 18:38

you lot have been off agian! lol.

monty - he introduced me to his friends as his GF, but we've not had the 'can I be yourr boyfriend/girlfriend chat' (think he just assumed i'd have him - which I would. )

have you texted today eve?

lou - lets hope you do get to see mech.

really feel for those of you who have v bad snow/are snowed in. looks like mums gonna be snowed in in blazingstoke so it's dinner & quality streets with dad which will be nice as we don't often spend time just us 2.

sin who's the drama queen? are we still adopting the silence approach or can we think up a good rev up n fuck off response for you?

lou/sin - sorry to hear your ex's are being bellends. hopefully they'll let you have a quite time over the xmas period - don't these muppets realise it's the kids who they're hurting as well?!?

juicy bet you do see him as well.

have cancelled tonight with sailor - as tbh I can't be assed to go out & thanks to the jack asses who pinched the last of my £13 out of my purse i'm not broke until tomorrow morning. still he says not to worry cos he'll still be there whenever I want to go out. we shall see. right now could just use a hug from GB. had some concerned texts thou.

Betty79 · 21/12/2009 18:55

eve-hmm men and their broken fingers!! drives u mad doesnt it! glad dd was ok with it this time tho

lou- what is exh playing at! and hope u get to see mechanic tonight, must be busy for him tho with this bad weather.

monty-i got myself some baileys after all ur talk this weekend

I went out in the end at lunch, and it took me 45mins to do about 5 miles but had promised to take kids somewhere for lunch so was stuck in it. anyway braved asda, and got a few bits mostly alcohol lol some of it was gifts tho honest

mrjack is over about 8 so must go get kids in bed early lol

Betty79 · 21/12/2009 18:57

belle-sorry to hear about the break in on ur car

thesouthsbelle · 21/12/2009 19:14

betty.

the car thing was my own fault really. it's just hte audacity of some people as it was on the drive (well out the front but in the garden which is paved iycwim) but was there literally under the bay window so the sods came up the drive in front of the hosue to try it. least htey left the malibu even if htey did take my money!

LittleMontyontheDustyRoad · 21/12/2009 19:20

Betty - we'll have a 'chink' later.

Belle - sorry about your break-in

Lou - hope he makes it, you need distracting from nob exh.

Eve - hope you hear from new friend.

Well, looking out of my office window I thought it was raining, went outside to go home and it was a winter wonderland!!! At least some people maintained a modicom of humour on the trains. May not make it tomorrow shame. lol

lou33 · 21/12/2009 19:33

mechanic is currently towing a car stuck in traffic with a van full of people and not happy

now, may i present, in a shortened form (tho the other bits were only about the post and whether dd1 will be meeting him to get the gifts), the email i received from my exh who seems to have regressed to a 14 yr old school boy

"I have printed all the kids their own wrapping paper because I wanted to do something for them
it took a lot more effort than me just buying the normal paper, SO please don't deride it as " look he couldn't even buy paper for them" OK???????

between you and me i have used a week of money on these presents and kept nothing back for bills so I am sorry if they do not meet the exacting standerds of people with cash."

this is a reply to him being told by me that i may not be able to meet him on weds to get eh presents off him for the kids, as he suddenly demanded, because of the roads

he had been arranging to see dd1 to hand them over, but for some reason said he wanted me to take them, so i said i dont know and THAT is his infantile response

lou33 · 21/12/2009 19:35

oh and update re mechanic

he has struck a deal with his boss that if he does one more job (he was meant to finish at 6), then he can have the evening off as tomorrow will be busy, so he is going to try and get down here straight after

christmaseve · 21/12/2009 19:50

I did text this morning to ask if he got to work. Heard zilch back and he usually replies straight away. Haven't sent another one, will have to just leave it and wait and see.

I'm really tired after last night, won't feel human again until I've has loads of sleep. I'm working tomorrow but facebook is full of people saying the roads are treacherous so not sure if I will get there.

Belle sorry to hear about your break in.

DONTtouchMUMSfestiveJUICE · 21/12/2009 20:00

cor your ex's are being right twunts. mines is behaving for once.

even says he might take kids new yrs eve so i can go out

belle - fair do's re gb. as long as your happy. sorry about your car.

so.... seen irish this afternoon. took him some scran and gave him a lift to his 2nd job as he's still sobering up from his bender. he's currently on the text trying to convince me to go over to his after his shift.... and the text are defo not that of a friend

and.... he's offered for me to go over to his on xmas eve and stay over till he has to go to work on xmas day and i need to pick up kids which is about same time. i've said he's free to change his mind and go out with his friends if they end up going out. so we'll wait and see what happens.

eve - i'm confused with your friends can we have nicknames.

scl - jeeze cant believe he's not given up yet.

lou33 · 21/12/2009 20:06

does anyone else love hearing irish updates as much as me?

christmaseve · 21/12/2009 20:38

Doesn't look like there is any point thinking of a name now promise to do better next time.

I'm confused as to the nature of Juicy/Irish relationship .

DONTtouchMUMSfestiveJUICE · 21/12/2009 20:59

juicy and irish are also confused by the nature of the relationship

but.....in his still partially drunken state while texting he has declared he had "stupid moral highground issues".....not sure if he means just the not having sex and being "friends".. or if he's talking about him and saying his ideal was someone with no kids. we're not talking about kids.. but get the feeling he's trying to put feelers out in that sense.. eeeeeeeeeeeeek....[juicy slaps herself before she gets any whimsical notions]

christmaseve · 21/12/2009 21:04

So he's trying and failing to keep it on a friendship level because he is worried about not being able to comit to you as his ideal is someone to start a family with?

At least he is trying to be honest.
