Dearly Be-Chucked, we are gathered here today because, for whatever reason, our man has dumped us!

Starting, musicman defo fits your criteria. I'd better have a go I think

Evening ladies, I was wondering where you'd all disappeared to. Thanks for doing the link Happy. Am I the only one who still goes into slumps of depression?? I don't mean real depression, I just mean depressed about being separated/on my own etc.. It's not that I want exh back, or want anyone else, it's just more being on my own raising dc's. I think I get triggered on some Mon's as I have to drive past where exh works.

Just to really help cheer me up I just had to type out 500 words detailing my most significant & traumatic life experiences ffs! All this for some stranger to ponder & decide if I cut the grade for a place in college next yr. I thought 500 words will be a doddle after all the assignments I've done to date, ffs ended up checking word count every two mins!!!!!!!!

Ahh that's a lovely link. Right off to bed. Been sucked into threads again for hours when I was meant to be switching off PC.

startingovernow · 10/05/2010 23:28

Nite Tea, it's nice to read something nice & gives us hope.........

ChairmumMiaowGoingItAlone · 11/05/2010 07:20

Morning all,

scan went well yesterday. Placenta has moved so no CS! Was knackered as DS keeps waking in the night and not settling so was asleep by about 9 after a ling soak in the bath! (h has DS)

all your talk of men is making me jealous you are all so much further down the line! Despite being so huge and pregnant I am getting rather desperate myself with no hope of anything for a long long time!

Starting - I know what you mean about being sad about being alone with DCs. I have decided that if H and I decide to divorce I am going to talk seriously to another single friend about moving in. It would be a bit of a squash but our DSs are the same age and get on well and it would make life a lot easier for us both financially! Being alone is nice sometimes but it is losing it's novelty, and with a friend there wouldn't be the pressure I felt with H that I ought to e doing things with him rather than whatever I wanted.

Happy - keep us updated about music man please - it would be nice to know one of us is getting some!

DS due back at 8 although no word that is he awake yet, but i ought to get out of bed. It's too warm and snuggly under this duvet!

Got the midwife at 10 too but at least she is coming here

startingovernow · 11/05/2010 10:14

Hi Chairmum, that's great news about not needing the cs. Great also that your getting a break from ds before new arrival. You often hear of people meeting someone new while pg, so there's always hope if things don't work out with h. Living with your single friend sounds great, you'd both have a permenant babysitter!

I'm feeling a lot brighter this morn tg.

IfYoureHappyAndYouKnowIt · 11/05/2010 21:59

still working but hopefully nearly done

no time for music practice tonight so may be whipped in my lesson ()

glad to hear you feeling ok Starting

glad you're back Chairmum and yes, defo good news on CS .......

IfYoureHappyAndYouKnowIt · 11/05/2010 23:17

Right work finished

Big storming row between DC's - me stuck in the middle trying to mediate - one at fault really but then other now being silly so grrrr

Oh, my breaking news...........contacted a service provider today to have exh's name removed from bill. Got an email back saying "Thank you for contacting XXX. In relation to the below email, In order to remove Mr.XXX from the address I will require his permission to do so as he is also listed as a finanically responsible bill payer at this address.Can you please request he contact us directly or on the number below." Have had a belly full with this provider as had the same crap after my brother died when I was trying to get bills redirected despite faxing copies of death cert & letter for sol. Anyway, new proactive me replied as follows "I had to have Mr XXX removed from the house by barring order due to horrific violence. I can fax you a copy of same. I obviously would not be in a position to contact him in relation to this. I have been paying the bills solely since Sept 08. You may of course wish to contact him directly yourself on XXX to discuss same.

No reply so far but if they don't remove his name I am not going to pay the next bill & I will tell them since Mr X is also on the bill they can contact him about payment.

IfYoureHappyAndYouKnowIt · 11/05/2010 23:21

Please could you come and sort out my DCs they need someone tough

I wouldn't mess with you myself

startingovernow · 11/05/2010 23:22

Christ, I've only lavander & vanilla candles in this house, am obviously missing out on the whole stem ginger zen so will have to go shopping..........

Happy, wise move to remove yourself & let them at it methinks...........

IfYoureHappyAndYouKnowIt · 11/05/2010 23:24

Thanks for the advice Starting

Am hiding under duvet and letting them fight it out

startingovernow · 11/05/2010 23:28

Happy! I swear to god in all my years dealing with difficult clients etc I never came accross a company more difficult to deal with. They actually caused me horrific stress when I was trying to sort out my brother's stuff. I had no issues with any other company, only them. When I got that email today, I got a blood rush & I said to myself ok let the fu*kers have it this time. I was actually got so much satisfaction sending that email. Small bit of revenge for the pain they put me through previously. I was only trying to make sure they got paid ffs but didn't want to have to go to my brother's house to collect bills!

IfYoureHappyAndYouKnowIt · 11/05/2010 23:31

Is good to get some revenge sometimes

I think they will be pretty embarrassed now

OP posts:
startingovernow · 11/05/2010 23:32

Lovely "welcome home mum"..........
