Just thought I'd start a new thread, general chit chat, moaning, skipping etc before I go to work and incase the other one fills up.

Me again - I've just read your PM. Not overreacting at all! Please make a formal complaint to the Head/ Chair of Governors/ LA. Totally unacceptable. Angry

LoserNoMore · 21/06/2013 20:56

Yeah Lazarus., I think it is related to seeing him and thinking about work on Monday, your physcology is about right i think. At least I don't need to worry about work for now. Just that arsehole to see.

Weather turned out lovely this afternoon, was sitting in the garden catching some rays and a bird shat in my glass of wine! Pity it wasn't my head, that's meant to be lucky.

I'm going to see the head teacher on Monday and just bring the whole thing to her attention.

Sorry but lol at the wine!

Friday night and I'm beat. DD has just started watching Shrek and I'm too tired to argue

lazarusb · 22/06/2013 11:00

Can you take a friend with you for support this afternoon? If not, don't worry, he is less likely to do something unpleasant in a public place with your dds and others around. I remember feeling like that with my ex, it's horrible and you have my sympathy.

When you see the Head it might be worth questioning the accountability of the Manager. She seems a bit too quick to pass the buck and dismiss responsibility.

School fair today, chucking it down! First time I can remember in nearly 40 years. Yep, I went to that school as a child too!

whitesugar · 22/06/2013 11:34

Just wondering if your work has Occupational Health dept. if so you could contact them & they could liaise with your line manager instead of you doing it all. Seems crazy that you should have to negotiate with them whilst you are off on stress related illness. Take care of yourself and don't underestimate impact of stress. You probably need a month or more off to get well so that you can get to a point where you can return & get back to a routine.

Your boss sounds like a witch. Maybe when you are in the mood whilst off you could see if there are other jobs out there. Part time would be great boosted by tax credits etc. Look after yourself!

LoserNoMore · 22/06/2013 14:38

Thanks whitesugar, I'm desperately looking for another job. Even 30 hours pw would be better.

Lazarus, he was ok. Quite civil actually. Now I'm going to meet JD for lunch.

Our school fair was yesterday, sun was shining. Today the heavens have opened. My washing is dripping on the line.

Have a nice "lunch" Wink

swallowedAfly · 22/06/2013 16:46

you have inspired me with all your JD talk and i seem to have, erm, gotten back on the horse at last Blush shocking behaviour.

hope your 'lunch' is lovely.

LoserNoMore · 22/06/2013 17:02

Ha lunch was actually just lunch. He has to go and see his mum for her birthday so he's coming round for "dinner " Wink

SAF, good for you.

HenWithAttitude · 22/06/2013 17:20

Ahem SaF. Tell us more!

Dinner... I'm home alone with DD and a school project. I have always been the same with their school work-I can do either complete takeover this is all my Mum's work or complete hands off negligent is another word for it

I'm aiming for the middle ground and she has been tasked with planning but is itching to just do. Just doing, invariably means scrappy, badly spelt and careless

LoserNoMore · 22/06/2013 17:28

Ahem SaF. Tell us more!

Exactly!

HWA, homework and projects I'm the same with. Biff, Chip and Kipper drive me nuts. Dd3 gets so much homework it's unbelievable.

Loulybelle · 22/06/2013 17:44

Yeah, tell us more, and i'll fill you in on my dirty weekend when it happens.

swallowedAfly · 22/06/2013 18:05

massively inappropriate but lots of fun and much needed! Grin he's actually the younger brother of someone i went out with years back which is terribly incestuous but obviously didn't bother him. best stomach i've seen in a long time.

HenWithAttitude · 22/06/2013 18:43

Enjoy SaF.

I am barely keeping my temper here. I think I'm quite mild and not easily roused but supervising 'projects' makes me twitch. I can't bear the wonky writing, slightly askew stuff and anything less than publisher perfect...

Plus...glue, remains of cutting out paper, the little bits of rubber you get after rubbing out....and DD thinks you sharpen pencils leaving the shavings wherever they land. I feel barely contained anger. She is a normal child so bloody messy. I'm sat at a table that seats 12 with just enough space for the iPad. Table covered in her pens, school bits, scrap book, glue, sun cream, pencil case, two games, drink cup, another game. Rest of the room similarly messy. Frequently find 3 or 4 pairs of shoes in here because she just dumps stuff as she moves around. (Am I ranting?)

I'm not that much of a neat freak. I suspect my friends privately mutter about my house being untidy, covered in dog hair and chickens running amok all over the garden. But her mess is TOOOOOOO much (am I ranting?)

And breathe

swallowedAfly · 22/06/2013 18:52

ha! i'm about to have a beer. children are monsters and your house and garden sounds much like mine Grin

i don't know if i'll do it again - no i blatantly will. am going to attempt to do the ah just enjoy the sex and giggles and it doesn't matter if realistically it's all bit random. i don't have to marry the guy. and the sex really was pretty promising so it would be good to have at least a 24hr re run sober and without a hangover. only fair to try things out properly isn't it?

swallowedAfly · 22/06/2013 18:56

i am so cringing though at the fact we were snogging in the pub garden therefore everyone knows and i have flagrantly been with two brothers. there was a five year gap mind so i don't think that's quite jeremy kyle material is it???

lazarusb · 22/06/2013 19:42

SAF - you don't have anything to worry about Grin I know a woman who had relationships with 4 brothers over 20 years. She married 2 of them and has children with 3....they all get on and everything...I'm not judgy but I struggle to get my head round that set up.

swallowedAfly · 22/06/2013 20:45

blimey! i wouldn't touch brother number 3 with a barge pole nor would i touch no. 1 again. and no.2 has had a vasectomy so no chance of things getting anymore JKish Grin i've never slept with a man whose had the snip before - it's quite liberating.

LoserNoMore · 22/06/2013 21:06

Haha SAF, way to Ho!

I skipped dinner and went straight for dessert so he's away for dinner Grin Sat outside for a bit and the midges were terrible! Going to watch a DVD and drink some wine. I actually love that. Snuggled under a duvet watching a movie and eating pistachio nuts. My favourite thing in the world.

LoserNoMore · 22/06/2013 21:07

Way to GO! Not Ho ffs.

HenWithAttitude · 23/06/2013 07:19

I like drinking coffee under the duvet listening to the birds first thing in the morning

swallowedAfly · 23/06/2013 08:36

she called me a ho!!! Shock

HenWithAttitude · 23/06/2013 08:41

Rude eh!

After all the support we've given her....

Grin

But then again.... You did sleep with the brother of an ex....

Grin
swallowedAfly · 23/06/2013 08:49

i actually started a thread to see if i was a dirty ho or not. the jury is out.

Areyoumadorisitme · 23/06/2013 08:58

Glad you're all enjoying Smile

SaF - I went out with two brothers many years ago, both fairly long relationships. Was a bit awkward meeting the parents again as the elder one's girlfriend for the first time! When I split up from the second one the joke was made on more than one occasion that I'd have to go for the stepfather next! I didn't!! At the end of the day you're consenting adults so no problem (as long as it doesn't get too JK ish which is doesn't sound like it is).

LNM - hope you had a good night.
