Hope this is ok ladies.

KSal - That the coconut cake is just delicious. CSWS's D even does a special dance of joy when he knows he's getting a piece. I am thinking more and more that men should just be kept in some sort of communal area and only let out for procreating and heavy lifting. They seem to be bloody useless at everything else and only succeed in making the better sex miserable.

I bet pregnant and American got you all kinds of passes

Can I join the grumpy wives club?
DH has just left to go to his mums bday bash. He is a bit sheepish but there still hasnt been any thing from him about it. We had a big fight a couple of weeks ago and he said I was overreacting (of course). I told him he could move out as he is obviously an emotional retard and I dont want him damaging my children. Things have been a bit better since then but even so he just doesnt understand at all how upset I am by this whole thing.
I am going to write an email to his mum, I dont want to cause a big family rift but I do feel that she should be told what has happened.

I have heard there are big delays at gatwick due to French air traffic strikes. Brilliant. I am evil.

Ronshar - for you, and I completely understand where you're coming from. I can't fathom how Mr Ronshar could NOT understand how upset you were about it! Why do men always think we're over-reacting about things? I've heard that from my DH, Mr Ronshar, I'm sure Mr Star has said it at some point too.... I am PMTy but I was NOT over-reacting, Ronshar, you were NOT over-reacting and Star you are often UNDER-reacting to things that I would have killed over! I wonder if lesbians have the same problems.....

I bet they do because one of them always thinks she is a man

I always thought lesbians had it easier...

You wouldn't though Star. You won't even go near your own vagina!

Have you missed me and my evil gentle ribbing Star?

Pistachio - Can we clone your man and have one each please? DH is usually lovely and fabulous but drink makes him nasty. I think my Latin blood makes me more volatile when provoked initially but I tend to be very reasonable when I've had time to calm down a bit.

of your dh pistachio

Afternoon all. I've been following but too tired to post anything coherent.

Eek to all the injuries.

Ronshar -I hadn't realised the birthday bash was so imminent. Honestly, I'm shocked that your dh doesn't realise what a big deal it is for you. I'm be seriously pissed off if I was in your shoes.

I have to join Pistachio and Myjob on this one. My dp is much better at saying sorry than I am. I'm a lot stroppier than he is and I'm pretty sure he would have refused to go to the birthday do if I wasn't invited.

at the vagine comment. Lesbians don't always have it easier. My best friend's mum is gay and her girlfriend's a complete nutter.

Given all these American jokes, I'm slightly concerned at being thought of as 'on the same wavelength' as one . I must try to tune out more.

CSWS.

Myjob. You are not a bad mummy. You are right to point out to DS that his behaviour is sometimes not acceptable.
Schools dont really enjoy children turning up who are completely unprepared so you are taking the right approach. imvho

DD2 told me she hated me the other day. So I very grown uply replied that I would sometimes like her to go live in the shed with the spiders. I then said I still loved her but that she can be horrible at times. She replied "that sounds just like you mummy". Brilliant.

50ft re your message. Too damn right we are.

Pistachio. Ouch.

Ouch ouch ouch Pistachio. That made my toes curl. M has started feeding for 25/30 mins at bedtime again! I got really fed-up with it last night.

Myjob - Oh I've done that to DS on a few occasions, certainly don't feel guilty. You've not said anything wrong, I think they sometimes need a little dose of reality.

DH has groveled sufficiently (well my mum's heating is broken so it wasn't really that comprehensive but I was cold so I forgave more swiftly than I would have otherwise done .....)

Ha ha ha ha Ronshar! Boys don't say wonderful things like that to their mummies. DS did once say he hated me and I said that's ok, I don't like you either. Then he stopped in his tracks, burst into tears and said "I love you mummy, I don't hate you. I'm sorrrrrrryyyyyyyyy!"

Hi all, have only read this page, what's the situation with your MIL's birthday ronshar?

I'm thinking it's time to stop BFing, are you still going CSWS/ 50ft?

In a nut shell HMM.
DH sister phoned to say that she was arranging for both DH & his other sister to go to France for MIL 60th bday party. It was made very clear by DH sis that I was not invited as I wasnt one of MIL children. Not part of the family!
So I have told DH to inform his "family" to FK off and not to ask me for a favour again(which they do alot). DH completely let me down by showing his lack of back bone and not standing up to the *. Sorry bad language but still really mad about it.

What??????? Do you not get on with his sister? Is she and his other sister taking their DP's?
