cme and give me a kick up the arse. if you offer a shoulder I'll burst into tears. not good.

moan no 1. the house is full of old shite. there's no point in tidying it up because within 10 minutes it becomes full of new shite. there are just bits everywhere.

1. I'm not excited about Christmas
2. the morning routine is so bloody stressful it nearly had me in tears
3. dh is not really all that well. he's hovering somewhere inbetween depression and anxiety - it's not too bad right now but not great either. and I don;t think we've had a shag for about 3 weeks.
4. dd2 is the world's biggest cock-about and I have the world's shortest fuse. not a good combination
5. I have too much work to do and not enough time to do some out-of-work things that I keep saying I will do.
6. I'm an old bag and I don't really have anything at all to whinge about.

Ladies of mn, get your feet ready, I present to you my butt.

Only 3 weeks? Blimey, you're doing well, honey...! I seem to recall having had a shag somewhere back in, um... must've been 2001 - about nine months before dd2 was born!

Your dd2 and my dd1 sound very similar. My dd1 'forgot' to keep putting one foot in front of the other while walking to school the other day and when asked why she had stopped dead in the middle of the pavement with a small queue of parents and children building up behind her, she said 'I was thinking about something'. I love her to bits, but honestly I could just scream sometimes.

No butt-kicking from me. I am guilty of most of the stuff in your message and more... And I am on here in order to put off having to go and do some online Equality and Diversity training -which I have to have done by Monday! Aaargh!

Ellbell... thank you. Check your email.

hatwoman glad you made it through the day. Weekend tomorrow, a chance to do something out of the normal routine hopefully. Good luck.

MARINA
