Ah ha! I knew I could get it to the two thousand posts!!!!

Hi Ladies - Sounds like you all had fun on friday night Pee'd myself laughing reading the messages - the typing got worse as the evening wore on !!

Yes it was great fun

How are you?

Sorry - had to do some work !! Yeah fine - wouldn't be dead for money as they say !!

Hello all

Glad to hear the job is going well Squirrel. Had great fun on Friday night and actually felt fine on Saturday . Very surprised at my typing being okish considering, tho my punctuation seemed to die a death completely .

Am soooo tired today. dd was up half the night on Sun for no apparent reason and was moody all day Mon. She spent mon night puking up and most of yesterday either sleeping or being quiet. She seemed well recovered by yesterday evening and of course having slept all day was raring to go last night. ARRRGGGGHHHH. Need a good night sleep soon

Hello everyone

squirrel hope your jobs still going well

tarantula I'm tired too, always am when DP is on nights - think I go onto autopilot

How's everyone else?

Hello everybody! Why is this thread gone so quiet?

It can't be just because I can't be on during the day anymore, I don't talk that much do I?

I hope I will be able to be on here tomorrow I've got a day off! Yay! But the electrician will be here to finish off the job he was supposed to finish ages ago, so I may have to have the electric off for a while.

I'm here but being told I spend to much time on here so trying to cut back and and I have gone back to work.

Hello all

squirrel you can't murder her - you won't get on here from prison

Mitigating circumstances?

lol

Don't think you'd get away with it somehow, unless you claim you're insane - but then you'd still get locked up elsewhere

I've got an almighty hangover today, had a (relatively minor) problem with dsd yesterday, DP buried his head in the sand as usual so I thought it was a good idea to drink loads when he'd gone to work. I was wrong!!

Know any hangover cures? I really do feel like poo, I've taken some ibuprofen. Trouble is with me I have "backwards" hangovers - instead of getting better it gets worse! So by midday I'm going to be feeling more yucky than I do now - help!! Just want to go home and lie down...

But I am insane! lol

Hope the problem with dsd will be easy to sort out, we had the stepkids last night and we have got them right throught until Sunday evening, I can see me drinking vast amounts of alcohol myself.

I don't really suffer from hangovers (unless I have really over done it) make sure your drink loads (non-alcoholic of course).

Morning all, Actually have a bit of time today. Am feeling soooo much better as got a decent nights sleep last night. Also managed to get some stuff sorted at work yesterday that has only taken 2 WEEKS to sort (having thought it'd take a day or so). You things are going wrong when you ring up the helpdesk for the software and they have never heard of the problem you are having.
Anyway hopefully today will be good tho I do have loads of meetings HATE MEETINGS. the best cure for a hangover is a hair of the dog NAAM but not easily done while at work. I get hangovers like that too. they are the worst!! Hope you feel better soon and get things sorted with dsd.
If you do go for it Squirrel check out the local pigfarms first Apparently its the best way to get rid of hte body Gosh what a mine of usful info I am arent I

Mmmmm, I know some farmers who would welcome some extra food for the pigs.............

Yes I am drinking plenty. Debating whether to have something to eat or not

Blimey, skids till Sunday - definitely get the booze out

It was something and nothing with dsd (as is often the case!). My nephew says she's been saying things at school, she says she hasn't. Long story but on this occasion I believe my nephew. DP obviously believes dsd so it's stalemate. My sister and DP are both now saying that we should drop it but I'm not happy - someone's lying and I think we should find out who. Dsd is coming on Sunday evening, might speak to her myself

Is it home time yet??

Actually dp is p-ing me off too, I wonder if I can kill two birds with one stone?.............

Hello tarantula

lol at the pig farm

I hate lies soooooo much!!!!

My stepkids are always lying, you can actually see them doing something, then they will tell dp they didn’t, of course dp believes them or sys "well they say they didn't, what can I do?" and I get sooooooo .

When my kids were young they knew that if they had done something wrong it was better to tell me the truth because if I found out they had lied about it they punishment would be much, much worse. But dp seems to think that its ok and normal for them to lie to him about things.

Squirrel that's exactly what DP said to me last night - "she says she hasn't said it - what can I do?" GRRRRRRR

Definitely going to have something to eat, got some sandwiches from Tesco this morning for lunch but I'm going to eat them now. Boy do I feel rough!! I don't learn though, I'll still do it again

Infuriating isnt it!

I beginning to remember why I was single for so long before I met dp, he is winding me up so much lately. Since I stopped the training and started work he has decided that he isn't going to help out around the house (personally I don't think of it as him helping out, more like him doing his share) he and his kids make most of the mess and its left to me and my ds to clear it all up. I'm going to work then coming home and working here until 10pm, going to bed because I'm shattered, then getting up at 6am to go to work and do it all over again.

I know that if it was just me and my ds the housework would decrease by around 80% because dp or the stepkids will not clean up after themselves and they are particuarly untidy (I've never met people like it before in my life, it must be a family thing, I can't really explain it).

Rant, rant, rant, I'm getting so p-ed off with it and dp is annoyed that I am getting so wound up about it, dp had a day of work Tuesday and he did bugger all in the house he just slobbed about all day and I had to do it all when I arrived home from work, today I have got a day off but I will be cleaning the house from top to bottom, got to admit I feel like just slobbing about myself, but it needs doing. Why are men so bloody usless?

Cor, what a huge rant! Thing is I still don't feel better about it.

That's not on Squirrel. Totally agree, he's not helping out - he lives there too, and him and his kids make most of the mess. I'd like to say I'd go on strike if I were you but I just know I wouldn't be able to sit in a mucky house. But I really would speak to him and tell him he has to help out. And I'd make him get his kids to help too - they're plenty old enough

Oh dear, I haven't stopped ranting yet,

and...and because we have the stepkids I haven't got anywhere I can have a good nights sleep (dp's snoring problem) so I'm doing it with hardly any sleep and an aching back because I have to sleep on the sofa...

and dp and I have had no physical contact (no cuddles or kisses or anything for two weeks) and....

The reason we have the kids for so long this week is because BM and her dp have gone on holiday again, dp and I have only been on holiday without the kids once in the five years we have been together because we can't afford it, yet BM is moaning because she wants more money from us!

[angy]

DONT DO it Squirrel. Put the mop and bucket DOWN right now!!!!!! Leave the housework. It is NOT your job to clean up after himand the kids. If you DO feel the need to clean then GO OUT somewhere instead. Honest you need to go on strike for a few weeks or so and not do anything esp his and the kids washing.

OR do as I do If its on the floor it goes in the bin!!! Dss learned that the hard way as he had to rescue his newest computer game from the kitchen bin (Actually I wasnt really goingto throw it out which is why it was in the bin when he went to look rather than down the tip)

Mind you I have it easy cos dp is MUCH more houseproud than I am.

'angy' whats that? lol

I've tried to talk to him time and time again about doing his share but he just gets p-ed off, feel like dumping him and going it alone TBH.

I totally agree with you tarantula, but I just can't sit in a dirty, mess house, I just can't do it, I wish I could but........

One of dp's arguments about the housework is "you want it done, you do it, I don't care if I sit in a messy house." and I supose he knows that I will do it because I can't leave it.

I know a couple of people who went on strike and it did solve the problem but I don't think I could do it either TBH. And it doesn't sound like your DP would care less about the house being untidy or mucky anyway does it?

Do you really feel that bad squirrel? Are you seriously thinking of splitting?
