I wish - I'm getting very broody because ds2 starts big school in January. Can't have one though, things are too unstable with me a dp to even consider it atm and the old clock is ticking away too

I put this in chat but I thought I'd paste it on here too because I've been chuckling to myself about it all day ...

We were watching ds1's school play today and sitting next to us was a lady with piercings in her nose, top lip, eyebrow ... you name it - everywhere.

DS2 (he's 4) says very very loudly

"Mummy, why has that lady got nails in her face!!!"

Luckily she saw the funny side

Baffy · 07/12/2007 08:47

Yep I wish too! Not going to happen for me at the moment is it!!

ginnedup at ds. they say the best things don't they!

macdoodle, hope your last day at work goes well today xx

hmm:

The Chariot
The Chariot is the representation of victory and a reminder that, through dedication and perseverance, great obstacles can be overcome. This card indicates that you are in control of your destiny and that your will is strong. Your refusal to surrender is your great attribute at this time. You will soon find yourself in a difficult situation that requires you to be in complete control of your actions and confident in your abilities.

removal firm 15 mins late!

Paddlechick666 · 07/12/2007 19:57

evening all from Chez Paddle!

well, i kinda liked my tarot as copied to you all earlier. but, i have to say that i am pretty much all out of perserverence now!

we are in, the beds are up and dd is sleeping now. the phone and broadband work - whoo hoo! the TV does not

was really looking forward to a quiet TV night tonight!

there is still some stuff back at the old house and it is in a completely untidy state. i hafta get back there tomorrow to tidy/clean up but in all honesty, i soo cannot be arsed!

H has had some pretty full on ranting texts from me this week. Especially when DD was throwing up the night before last.

the removers turned up half hour late but they were fabulous and took a shedload more stuff for an extra £50.

my mum and step-dad have also been great this week. they're in their 70s but they'd done so much.

i think i will go to bed soon! doubt dd will go thru the whole night in her new bedroom tbh. she was up for an hour or so last night - think the wind woke her.....

roll on 2008 eh? i feel like i've made a start even if i am scared to use the microwave in case it wakes dd and i have no dishwasher

macdoodle · 07/12/2007 20:23

Well done PC you have done amazing not sure I could have done it so good for you
I have had crap day - last day so was hoping to get through sort out last bits pieces...suffice to say one partner off sick did not help so I took TFM advice and just "broke down" spent half hour sobbing at my desk and only just managed to get through the day....
DD and I have just scoffed large pizza lounge looks like bomb site (opening pressies from baby shower at work)..small glass wine and feeling better if little shell shocked....off to bed with DD need cuddles and early night...
Hope everyone is ok nighty nighty ...

OhComeLetUsADiorHim · 07/12/2007 21:04

MacDoodle - I'm glad you had a good cry, I hope it did you the world of good. I also hope that you manage to get plenty of rest before the new baby comes. Enjoy your maternity leave!! Sod H! You bask in the remainder of your pregancy, you can be mad and angry at him later xx

Fubsyinapeartree · 09/12/2007 18:27

Hi - dont suppose anyones around?

For some reason I feel really crap. Its like getting the puppy on Thursday has triggered something. Eveything is going ok with him, but I feel really anxious and tearful.

Went to Christingle with DD, could hardly sing any carols as I had such a lump in my throat.

I know my problems are nothing really, but I wish I didnt feel like this when Ive so much to do before Xmas.

OhComeLetUsADiorHim · 09/12/2007 18:40

I'm here for 5 minutes while ds is in the bath...

mummyofaprincess · 09/12/2007 19:28

Im due april the 9th Baffy you know when i said he wouldnt let her down on her birthday he did big time, but after all the upset of friday me and my family made her birthday party on saturday so special she was over the moon, DD really wanted a "in the night garden cake" and guess what she got an "in the night garden cake" made by me and my sister and step mom, she was over the moon, pitty the stupid idiot of an xdp missed out (but if he had of been there he would have ruined it). DD was dressed as a fairy princess and she looked so beautiful, i`m a very lucky mummy

Fubsyinapeartree · 09/12/2007 19:52

Aw MOP - how could he do that to her? Glad you were able to make her day so lovely.

Dior - sorry, just as I was typing that, XP rang to see if he could use my shower as he has no water at the moment. Couldnt get back on here after that.

It didnt really help, him coming round. Theres still so much unfinished business. I havent felt like I missed him at all until this WE, Im sure its just because having the dog is such a big change.

But I think part of it is because I always wanted us to have a house full of animals, and he always had some excus why we couldnt.

Paddlechick666 · 09/12/2007 20:25

fubsy, i understand how you feel. it's a weird feeling that you are achieving things alone that you wanted to have together. mixed iyswim.

my friends had a baby boy yesterday, their dd is 1 week older than mine. i am so happy for them but it tugs my heart that it could've been me just as much.

MTAP, well done for putting on such a great birthday for your dd. My h has missed both dd's birthdays and one Xmas so far. Looking back I should be grateful he made it for her birth seeing as how he'd been awol for 6 weeks and only returned 3 days before she was born.

I find it difficult these days to even talk about or mention Daddy because I dread the questions. I have got to face that one tho.

We're getting slowly unpacked and sorted. Wish I didn't have to go to work tomorrow tho.

Paddlechick666 · 09/12/2007 20:26

sorry MOP not MTAP

mummyofaprincess · 09/12/2007 20:36

fubsyinapeartree he has changed so much since he walked out the door, he always used to put DD first no matter what but now shes second best and it really tears me apart maybe in the future he will look back on this and see what an idiot he is! He couldnt even spent the day with DD on her birthday as he had plans "her" (as i call her, beats the bad names i could call her really lol)
PC how could he miss these special days? i think some men are born without hearts! I know my xdp wont be at the birth of this one, he has turned into a nasty piece of work and thats not the DP i knew and loved for 7 years

Fubsyinapeartree · 09/12/2007 20:59

PC, dont know what to say. Its that sort of thing that brings it home how pear shaped your life is, isnt it.

MOP, I just dont understand how so many of the men on this thread can put a new girlfriend ahead of their own children. I think its so sad.

mummyofaprincess · 09/12/2007 21:07

i didnt think he would ever do that, honestly hand on my heart he was the best dad in the world untill he walked out on us, now he doesnt give a monkeys and that hurts it really does

Fubsyinapeartree · 09/12/2007 21:15

I dont think it matters how old they are, I think they have to do this young free and single thing - like they have to throw off the shackles of responsibilty and pretend thet nothing holds them down.

They dont have to worry, they know Mummy will always be there, being responsible.

Paddlechick666 · 09/12/2007 21:42

spot on fubsy! i don't think H is especially doing the young free single thing but he is most definately counting on Mummy always being there for his kid

mummyofaprincess · 09/12/2007 21:52

I think he is loving this being free thing because it shows in the way he is, i wouldnt mind but he wanted all of this, me DD and my bump i just cant get my head around it i really can`t its as if someones taken over his brain!
