Just went to post on my other thread but it's full already!

I'll attempt to link it but I'm on my phone so probably won't work.

Excuse the cheesy title, my brain won't work. Just going to read last few replies on old thread.

Hope the cleaning is going well and you can enjoy a nice snuggle on the sofa this afternoon Smile

ScarletWomanoftheVillage · 02/05/2013 11:41

Incredible that he feels entitled to ask you if you are going out on the pull! Hmm He sounds like a right knob.

themidwife · 02/05/2013 13:03

Yes just keep on keeping on - you're doing great!

LoserNoMore · 02/05/2013 13:17

I know, the guy is unreal. Why he thinks he can fire questions like that at me I'll never know. I could be shagging the entire Celtic football team I wish and it would have nothing to do with him.

Grin I hope he didn't ask that in front of your dds? Arsehole. You weren't even on the pull in the first place. Not your fault you're an attractive woman!
LoserNoMore · 02/05/2013 17:27

No he always waits until they're out of earshot, I'll give him that. So thoughtful...

JaxTellerIsAllMine · 02/05/2013 17:40

ah how considerate of him! NOT! hope your house is sparkling clean now, not sure about Scotland but today has been HOT where I am. I was out with a friend today getting birthday gifts for DD and a couple of my friends and Rita Ora was opening up a new shop.

That was the highlight of my day. Grin I had to tell my friend who she was. It was hilarious, not a clue. And she isnt much older than me. Oh well, I suppose there are benefits to having a teen son and a music loving daughter! Im down wiv da kids. Wink

LoserNoMore · 02/05/2013 17:52

Not so hot here, bloody miserable infact, didn't get any washing dried on the line :( was sunny this morning but as soon as I hung out all the bed sheets a black cloud appeared.

You are indeed down wiv da kids Grin

One of my dd's has a birthday in 2 weeks. I've lost count of her ever increasing list! She's getting a bike, like it or lump it.

JaxTellerIsAllMine · 02/05/2013 18:42

Mine has new Ugg boots (sale) and some silver earrings from DS. She will get money from family, gift vouchers etc so she can buy whatever crap she likes from Claires. My baby will be 10 tomorrow.

LoserNoMore · 02/05/2013 19:06

Ah I love kids birthdays, funny you should mention Claire's. dd is desperate for her ears pierced, every day she pesters me but I think she's too young. Her friends all have them done, it's a daily battle.

LittleEsme · 02/05/2013 22:08

Hope your DD is feeling better LNM. Bless her. And you? How are you doing?

I'm brighter. Still spluttering and grabbing for asthma pumps. I think I've bust a rib, I've coughed so much Grin Want to go back to work soon but family are putting pressure on me to stay put. Work keeps piling up though.

Anyway, You are doing well. So, so well. And I do agree with everyone else who've said about keeping a little eye out for other job opportunities. Out with the old... The timing is right for you so just keep an eye on things. I shall have a few choice words to whoever 'up there', as well. I reckon they bloody 'owe' me a few favours after this stint in hospital.

who the feck is Rita Ora

lazarusb · 02/05/2013 22:22

I was just wondering...ex used to point men out in town to ds that I'd slept with....except I hadn't & ds was 10 Angry He just became so focused on scoring points that he forgot about the effect it would have on ds.

Been cold but sunny here.

LittleEsme · 02/05/2013 22:27

lazarusb Shock Angry
There are no words...

CabbageLeaves · 03/05/2013 07:15

Hope DD is feeling better LNM

Bit grim Lazarus :(

It's Friday!!!! What's everyone doing for the weekend?

Pannacotta2013 · 03/05/2013 08:49

I've only just found this thread! I tried looking not very well apparently but couldn't find you. Anyway, I'm super glad you had a lovely birthday, and sad you are having work trouble. Your manager sounds rubbish and yes they are relying on your wanting to do things properly, to get you to do more work than you should. Gah! Anyway, really good to catch up, you are, as ever, fabulous Smile

LoserNoMore · 03/05/2013 09:05

Dd is still a bit unwell LittleEsme, and has lovingly shared the stomach bug with me. Been up all night with stomach pains not knowing what end it was gong to come out of. Sorry tmi! Threw up at 6am and twice since.

Lazarus, that's terrible. What a lowlife.

Cabbage, my plans... Crossing my fingers that the girls all don't get the bug or I'll spend the weekend up to my eyes in vomit. If we are all better might go to the cinema, need to see what movies are out though.

Thanks Pannacotta, glad you found us!

lazarusb · 03/05/2013 09:22

I know. I found it so difficult, tried to bite my tongue at first, while reassuring ds that I hadn't shagged half the town. I think it showed how desperate and pathetic he was, especially as it started 5 YEARS after I left him! Now I look back I find it quite amusing that he had to sink that low to make himself feel better. I could you tell you other stories....!

themidwife · 03/05/2013 09:57

Hell hath no fury like a twunt called on his bad behaviour!

My ex even 2 years after HE divorced ME (on made up grounds which I did not contest but because he was abusive & took my chance to escape)
was still online dating & telling the poor women nasty stories about me & detailed info about my son's mental health issues & my kids' names & schools etc. One told her brother who was a copper who knew me & he kindly went round & had a word about slander & confidentiality of children's identities online. They will say anything to justify their behaviour to themselves & others!!

JaxTellerIsAllMine · 03/05/2013 10:25

morning everyone! I am very hungover tired today. Out last night for friends' birthday celebration, my plan was that I drove... then DH offered to take, pick up the friends and drop us off, so I bit his hand off agreed and drank too much pink wine.

The Thai food was absolutely delicious, but not entirely Low Carb friendly and I am supposed to be bootcamping ... Its all gone a bit wonky.

So sorry you have bug lnm - that is my worst child related illness, I just cant cope with it. Hope you are all better soon, I prescribe nibbling on biscuits crakers/toast, some flat cola to help hydrate and lots of water.

lowercase · 03/05/2013 14:44

I prescribe a huge dose of pleasing yourself.

Any plans for the weekend?

Regards to the LNM fan club

DonkeysDontRideBicycles · 03/05/2013 15:46

So clumsy on my phone, must have pressed Hide Thread by mistake.

Sorry your manager and work are hateful otherwise what a birthday, what a berk your ex is. My DSis is a big believer in Cosmic Ordering, Hmm I don't normally subscribe to it but if it's possible to request for others, I'll ask for a better job for you just for starters.

Hope you and DD2 feel by this evening, take it easy. Flowers

CabbageLeaves · 03/05/2013 17:08

Squity guts Confused. Long time since we've been afflicted in this house. Thank gawd

I've come home to find DP has arrived to spend a long weekend with me and he's filled my fridge with yummy food, prepared dinner (+ pud yeah) for tonight and has plans for rest of the weekends food as we have lots of family coming.

4 yrs ago I would probably have found the fridge bare, the house filthy, the husband moaning about having family visit and he'd spend most of the weekend with a tin of Stella in his hand

Now...things aren't perfect as a single mum but there are some advantages!

LoserNoMore · 03/05/2013 18:07

Jax, I love Thai food, very jealous. You can keep the hangover though Wink

Lowercase, no plans as such, dd1 is away to a birthday sleepover at a friends. Me and dd2 and 3 won't be moving from the sofa for the rest of the evening. I'm so hungry but scared to eat. I haven't been sick since 2pm.

Thiemidwife, what a total arsehole. Some men never fail to amaze me.

Thanks Donkeys, it's worth a try! A new job would make me so happy right now.

Cabbage, he really does sound lovely, hope you have a great weekend with family.

I sometimes daydream about all my family being here. Parents, grandparents etc. I always imagined a close busy house, big family get togethers. Ah well no point dwelling on the impossible.

Oh here's a cracker. Went to pick the girls up at after school and bumped into my boss picking her daughter up. She said ' oh feeling better then?' I said unfortunately being a lone parent, even if my head is hanging off I still need to drop off and pick up my children. She forced a laugh and walked off.

LittleEsme · 03/05/2013 19:01

She forced a laugh and walked off.

LNM, your boss is a Twat. How on earth could she not turn around and squeeze you with a hug, I do not know.

Vom or not, I'd hug you right now.

Try to resist eating til tomorrow LNM Sad but lots of sipping of flat coke or flat 7up. Keep up your energy levels.
