evening all
been a hectic day but rewarding too. dd had a lovely afternoon with her "special" friends. it doesn't seem real that they will all leave on Weds or that today was the the last time they will see dd for who knows how long.
tried to explain to dd and she seemed to get the concept. especially as her auntie lives in Aus. we will keep in touch via the web and i will save for a trip in 2009.
i am going to the airport on weds when i fully expect to be a wreck! they are such special special people and we have been friends for so very long.
preparation for MD is going quite well. DB actually appears to be on the ball and (dare i say it) might even be helpful! he is coming over mid arvo in order to get "nicely settled" aka pissed! Ginned, perhaps he is your ex-dp!
glad to hear your dc have been busy. i had a huge packet of "work" to bring home from pre-school "a-day" (as dd says today!) including a very interesting lump of pink clay lol
we are off to an art session in the morning so dd can make grandma a card. i am hoping this home made offering plus lunch etc will suffice as don't think i can run to much more.
having said that i had my pay review details earlier and they're not too bad altho boss didn't have bonus figures. honestly i am very about this guy. at leat it would seem i am getting a bonus which is a bonus (scuse pun) on the last 2 years.
mac, don't know what to say really. i do empathise with you wrt to the wondering what's going on elsewhere iyswim. i hope you manage to enjoy lunch etc but if you've had enough of him being around then you should articulate that. it is good that he'd rather be with you and your girls than anywhere else but if you're not comfortable with it then you shouldn't have to tolerate it either.
Baffy, i'd like to be but actually i am not. the ow is clearly a complete skank. i am glad to see how well you are handling it all. focus on yourself and ds now mate. i am feeling benevolent (sp?) so all i can feel for her is pity. what sort of life is she facing at such a young age?
anyways, i hope you all have a lovely weekend.
