i just went for the six month option of car tax too, but it does take us to december as the due date for the next lot and it will be christmas so dont know if its was a good thing, but had to pay for ds2's party so needed to cut back on something and car tax lost out.
so, last night, i was up till 12.30 writing my essay, dp was meant to be home as he had to look after ds1 this monrning (as he was sick every where last night so couldnt go to school today) so, dp was meant to finish at 11 as he said he would get some one to cover his sleep in night duty. so it gets to when i realsie it was 12.30 and he wasnt home, so i go to bed and lay there listening for his car (he was meant to be staying in ds1's room as ds's were with me as sick bug) got to 1.10am and ds1 awake as he cant sleep, i had been ringing dp, no answer and texting, no answer. so im laying there feeling rreally sick, thinking ok, maybe he just hasnt got any one to cover his shift, but as ds1 woke up i said to him, come on, lets go out (it was 1.20am by this point) so he agreed as he thought it would be fun ds2 had woken up by this point and so i bundle them all in my car, i had jeans on under my nightie and drove to her house/road. so i drove up and down the road and see his car parked away from her house, at this point my blood is boiling!!! i was gonna smash his car up but thought, no cause im the one that will end up paying for it, so bent all his mirrors and windscreen wipers back (ds1 is going to me, mummy why are you doing that to daddys car) and so i figure out which one is hers, (as didnt know exactly) and by luck a bloke walks up the rpad to the house opposit so i asked him if he had the right house!! and i did!! so as the lights were on hammered on the front window (my hand still hurts) she comes to the curtians, pulls them back and sees me!! que out comes dp looking really ashamed.
and i stand on her driveway going completly mental at him, i was shaking i was soooo angry (normally i dont say a word to anyone and am v quiet) telling him he was out, if we had ever had a chance of fixing things it was gone now he had totally f**d up big time now. he saidgo, i will follow you home to which i replied . no you fing wont, got in the car and pulled away (she was hiding the entire time) so i see him go back into the house, which pisses me off even more, so i drove round the bloke and back in the road, to see his car still there so i sat outside her house with my hand on the car horn for what felt like ages. and then drove off. it was about 1.40am by now.
so get home, chuck what is left in his draws in the washing basket and through it outside at him (as he had now arrived home). after me giving him a mouthfull through the front door, as i wouldnt let him in to talk, he went and slept in the car.
he says it was the first time he has been back to hers scince i found out (i know thats a lie as he went back when we thought it was her doing my car in)and he only went to talk to her as he had no one else to talk to and we had had major arguements that weekend. there is no way i am believing this, he never expected me to come looking for him, dragging my poor boys out at that time of the night (we saw some foxes though!which made ds1's night)so i have told him to go again, and go move to hers if he has to i dont really care so long as he just goes.
i dont know how we managed to end up here!, now im going to have to tell my parents which i didnt want to do, and i feel such a gullible wally. im quite normal usually, and only read about these things in the trashy mags in the staff room!
lord, my arm aches now from typing so much!
