Last train to Loserville Part 2

[LoserNoMore]

After the overwhelming support I've received on my thread I had to start another. Well I didn't have to but I have found all the advice so helpful that even if I only receive one more piece it will help.

I'll try and post the link to the full sorry story. Never linked on my phone before so it may not work.

thats a pain,well nothing you can do about it. Car hunting sounds fun. I'm going to try out my new pond gloves and see if I can get the pond pump working!!

Sounds very fishy cjel.

In other news, my skipping rope came

You are amazing.You are inspiring me to do something about my pelvic floor!!!

car hunting does sound fun but bear in mind the car really isn't 'his' - it's marital property.

my skipping rope came too shall we try them out and report back? thing looks a bit lethal to me

Yes the car is both of yours, if he won't let you have it a new car needs to be bought for you from joint assets.

I've never liked the car anyway. So shall I ask him for a contribution towards the car then? I have no clue.

yep. he should be paying towards it really. if he's taking the family car.

Ask in legal, all the lawyers go there and answer questions.

Swallowedafly, the rope is good. Bingo wings be gone!

Thanks fluffy, I'll do that

ooh if it works on bingo wings i'm slightly more motivated!

Either that, or sell the car and give him half the proceeds.

I jumped on the bandwagon and ordered one of those ropes too. It arrived this morning, very plasticky-looking and very, very red!

I got it for dd. When it arrived I suggested to dh that he could try skipping on the trampoline . He was unamused. I probably can't use it myself much as jumping is a bit of a big deal for me, and my entire skeleton gets shaken up and I end up in pain/exhausted within a few skips. But I am trying to get a bit fitter (I have ms and have gone to seed horribly since I had to stop walking much) and recently have joined a gym too. So I think I'll give it a go.

Wish me luck for when it stops raining!

LNM, exercise makes you feel better. Chemicals rush around your brain and lift your mood. Skip lots! Maybe whenever you're having a bad day you should get that rope out.

Hope your car hunting is successful.

It's much easier than the actual rope ones. It must be good for bingo wings, all those arm rotations. End up with calves like Chris Hoy in the process though. Skipping on the tramp sounds like a challenge!

Both dh and dd have said it's too dangerous! DD listed about 20 awful things which could happen, including tripping and having her hair ripped out on the springs

Jux MS? I've never, ever read a self-pitying post from you. You awesome woman.

So the ropes have arrived?! Mine are blue and yes, lethal!
DO NOT ATTEMPT SKIPPING BAREFOOT! It'll slice it off I swear!

Remember to trim them down - take off handle and trim carefully to size. It's an amazing 'skipper' for the price and lots more effective and faster than rope. Win win.

LNM, hope you're having a mooch around town. Treat yourself to something small, like a good handcream, and slather it on when you get home. In the meantime, pick up a mag (Boots magazines are free if you're an Advantage card holder) and head to a cafe for a nice cuppa tea (God, I'm tight - I always buy tea and nowt else when I'm out, cos it's the cheapest drink on the menu ).

Also, I'd definitely post in Legal re the car. It may afford you something newer and less hassle in the long run.

I'm glad he picked them up & I'm glad your work was shut The car counts as an asset so yes, he either gives you half of what it's worth or he lets you have it completely...for the benefit of your dds. He should be contributing to the financial upkeep of the girls too.

I'd love to skip but have a dodgy back so it's a bit too high impact for me Light jogging and a bit of step is as far as it goes for me.

Linky to the skipping rope?

lazarusb I am not allowed to do anything high impact either. no skipping, skiing, horse riding, blah blah blah. Actually the only thing I can do at the moment is walk and I am walking! Cant wait to get back to my aquarobics.

Here it is Fluffy

My skipping rope is red too! It makes a good whooshing sound when you pick up speed doesn't it?! Amazon must be wondering about the sales pick up on these ropes.

Wrt the car, I'm really not bothered about him keeping it, I can't imagine he'd want to sell it either but halfing me for a car for us sounds like a compromise. I'll speak to him about it later via email of course.

Thanks.

just come in from mending pond pump and pruning in the rain soaking so make a drink and biscuits and came back to see how you are getting on, Can't believe I did it but i clicked on link and have bought a rope. What have you done to me??? I don't even know if I've got any room to skip!!!

it's LittleEsme s fault. You don't need much room cjel. Comfy shoes and a good sports bra.

We'll need to form a Buffalo Girls troop - we need a name ;)
