Tick tock: the one where Geller discovers Polly is no longer a doormat

AKA Co-parenting: I do not think it means what you think it means

Here we go again my lovelies! Will this be the one where I finally get divorced?!

Previous thread here

I have clock news! Turns out, no one wants it. Quelle surprise. Could I sell it? No, sez I, it’s worth ha’penny tuppence on a good day. Plus, no time.

Ha ha.

I suggested, because I am a kind hearted soul and because it’s already in a box and I don’t know which one that they keep the clock face and I get rid of the mechanism and the case. That appears to be a reasonable compromise. Pass me an axe.

The reason for the clock conversation? My brother phoned. My mother has given away my grandfather’s WW1 medals to a museum. WTF?! We’re going to try and get them back. She can’t see what she’s done wrong.

Solicitors on the other side for the house purchase are useless. Estate agent spoke to them today. They are awaiting proof of ID and funds on account?! WTF. I lost my shit a bit. I’d just come back from having a filling so I sounded three gins down, which I’m sure added to the effect.

Oh, and I haven’t stopped laughing for the last hour. A friend has found Geller’s profile on a dating app. It contains such gems as ‘addressing climate change one word at a time in my career as a professional’ and goes on to claim he ‘always has time’

Given me the best laugh I’ve had since my solicitor said she’d call me just to be sure that I wanted to file for absolute once the finance order is made…

Anyway, buckle up loves. It’ll be a ride, as ever…glad you could join me.

Congratulations, that's wonderful news! You've achieved so many incredible things and there's so much more to come in your new life without Geller.

Oh Polly, this is such good news. I'm so happy for you and the dollies. Hope the move goes smoothly and that you continue to move onwards and upwards. I'm sure it will be a very light and happy home for you all.

For what it's worth, I decorated my bedroom (first time in 25yrs and post divorce). I chose Valspar Rabbits Foot - mushroomy pink colour. Looks fab and it's so lovely to complete another step in getting rid of xh's traces from my home!

LookItsMeAgain · 03/05/2022 13:34

I am genuinely delighted and thrilled and happy for you and for the Dollies @StuckInPollyannaMode and I don't even know you. May you have many many happy years in your new home with your girls and I hope they have and make wonderful memories there too.

Wishing you lots and lots of lovely happy times ahead!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!
