With the exception of the two bedrooms that are being wallpapered the entire house is painted and looking lovely - thanks have to go to my two friends Joester and Chellester for their amazing hard graft. DH and myself can hardly walk I dont care if I never see a paint brush again.

Going up to Chelles for a 'de-briefing' after so much hard work!! Will come back later on - internet, phone and tv all being switched off tomorrow and put back on early Tuesday - Tom may have a nervous breakdown

FG - you could have written about how I feel there. Only I dont have any support (mum or MIL to say I am doing it wrong - big sis has been known to say things that make me feel like a complete novice though)other than DP who seems to have endless patience with DTs whilst I feel like I am floundering at times. I did wonder whether I had PND or something like that as I have had a whole heap of crap going on, but then I thought you selfish cow you should be thankful for DTs and just get on with it. Only sometimes I cant

Hi all,
Oh Frumpy we have missed you, I have thought of you walking on my beloved beaches, slurping sangria and lusting after the locals Di you go to PP? We had a big row yesterday morning, which made me feel really awful as it has Becca in tears. I spent all week feeling sick in my stomach watching H get weaker and weaker, then he ends up in hospital and I have to tell the children he will be fine. He comes home Frid at 6pm, downs 2 G&Ts and hardly any other fluid for the next 12 hours, we have just been on a fluid drip for dehydration!!Then yesterday morning, he looks washed out and awful and says he is going to the allotment!! To cut it short I stormed off with the kids and didnt ome home until 7pm. He was in the garden working and just to prove his point worked out there until almost 10.30pm!! Today the atmosphere has been decidedly frosty, he went off to the allotment again, so as Becca was out at a party I sent the boys with him so I could have some space!! He didn`t like that as they are a pain down there!! Then some terrible terrible news. My friend came this morning to tell me that another friends daughter committed suicide on Frid morning. Georgie was 14, lovely lovely girl, lovely family, just cannot understand why. Her poor mother found her hung in her room, my heart is breaking for them. Things are awful here, but it makes our problems seem so much less, I cannot stop thinking of them, knowing the pain and hell thye are going through right now. Its so dreadful.

MERLYPUSS · 20/07/2008 21:18

Hi Trips.
Your poor friend

frumpygrumpysooksgin · 20/07/2008 21:34

Oh Triplets darling what a hell of a time you are having. And your friend what a living hell. To have to live with the knowledge your child was hiding a deep hurt and then ....... I don't even want to imagine that pain. A young life.

Trips, you are doing your best for H. He is being bullish and all you can do is let him if he won't accept the situation. Please try to stand tall and don't be dragged down by his behaviour. Lift your chin and take care of you xxxxxx. And love to the kids. Becca is adorable. Do you get girly nice time just you and her?

frumpygrumpysooksgin · 20/07/2008 21:36

Merly....talk more. Always happy to hear it. Or by email xxx.

Shabs, good luck tomorrow darling! I am signing off soon as I have the mother of all headaches for the second night in a row, thrush and I feel sick. JOY!

MERLYPUSS · 20/07/2008 21:37

Off to bed. Night xx

frumpygrumpysooksgin · 20/07/2008 21:37

BTW, does anyone know why Mars is walking around with bright pink nail varnish on her face? Should we tell her?

frumpygrumpysooksgin · 20/07/2008 21:38

Merly......are we sleeping together???

triplets · 20/07/2008 21:48

Kale Nits you two, hope your headache goes away Frumpster xx
My two boys are really winding me up tonight, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

frumpygrumpysooksgin · 20/07/2008 22:47

Trips, my one boy is winding me up atm so I am sending big empathy with your two. My boy has suddenly decided to give up weeing in the loo.........3 pairs of trousers and pants and two pairs of jama bottoms today......... not to mention last week. He is also majorly bad tempered and shouting at everyone, walloping everyone, and generally just being a massive PITA. He is 4 next week. Is it too young to send him down the pits? He looks so angelic. I might email you a picture of him......I might even send you one of me on holiday. I DON'T EVEN LOOK LIKE THE SHE-DEVIL IN IT!!!!! Its the first time I look ok. Mind you, I had blow dried my hair and I had an inch of slap on.....

triplets · 20/07/2008 22:55

Frumpy, you have all my sympathy, it drives me insane, they go on and on until at least 10.30pm, then Dh gets cross with me for going to bed so late, but I need a couple of hours on my own!. So was the weather not too good? What I wouldn`t give to be out there now, soooooooooooo regret selling our little dream home

accordiongirl · 20/07/2008 23:08

A couple of hours on my own - with you guys!!!

triplets · 20/07/2008 23:11

Hi AG, its abit quiet on here tonight, must all still be down the pub

frumpygrumpysooksgin · 20/07/2008 23:13

Weather was scorching when we arrived, 35c (following 6 weeks of rain apparently!!! I have never seen the place so green and lush!), week 2 was cooler 30-32c, our last week broke and it was sunny with clouds, couple of rainy days and a major storm. Goes without saying that it was glorious and hot the day we left!!!! [rolls eyes]

Had a great time but my young boy and DD1 both had a bug and tempers were frayed.....the usual......childcare in the sun.

frumpygrumpysooksgin · 20/07/2008 23:16

I like a bit of quiet time at night too Trips. Which is why I'm here instead of sleeping like I said I was doing about 2 hours ago!!!!

Haven't been MNing all that time mind you.

It's echo-y in here tonight.

triplets · 20/07/2008 23:26
