...s ok?

MiladyBeaWinter · 15/02/2015 11:21

Mine does nothing round the house. At all. But then that is by agreement as a) he is crap at it and I just get annoyed and b) we made a deal when the DC arrived.

He works in a pretty demanding job. We were both at similar levels when the DC came along and both of us were keen to give up work and be the stay at home parent. It was refreshing for it to be an actual discussion fight over who it would be. I won Grin. But the deal is he works and brings in the income, I do the house and main day to day parenting. I do the finances and fixing stuff too, so it's not all the historic sexist usual division on work. Which is good as he is shite at anything involving tools as well. We share the garden just to keep it on the side of not too overgrown

I'm very diligent when it comes to the kids but am terrible at the house bit. I do have a cleaner and send the ironing out, which I point out is my way of managing it. I never committed to doing it, just to managing it.

And it seems that right now we are going out to massacre hedges with power tools. I just want to sit with coffee and wench, FMG.

Morning all.

Have been MIA due to visitors, going out and general mehness which I shan't bore you with.

It was a cracking episode, really enjoyed it. The Catherine/Mavis comparisons did make me smile however I would be a good, kind and nice aristo who likes peasants and with a great cellar so p'raps Athos would have preferred me to Milady instead.

It must be tremendously hard living with someone with MH issues - like you say, when do the allowances stop and the Get On With It You Twat start?

Hope all wenches are having a lovely Sunday. I have Stuff To Do which is why I'm currently sitting on the sofa. Must try to motivate myself fat chance.

MadamedeChevreuse · 15/02/2015 11:34

mavis!!!!! does she still breathe??

MavisGrind · 15/02/2015 11:45

I cannot possibly say Madame....

Enormouse · 15/02/2015 11:46

No, he's off ads at the moment. It's exacerbated by being ill. I've known him for 7 years, been a couple for about 5, so I've developed the ability to know when's he hitting a genuine low. He's naturally a bit of a miserable, but loveable, sod so sometimes it's a bit tricky.

milady if it works for you, and agreed by the pair then it's grand

LetUsPrey · 15/02/2015 11:48

You do know you would have had to let Athos out of the cellar occasionally though Mavis?

After reading the stuff about DPs and housework and shiz, I'm a bit worried that I might be a man.

LetUsPrey · 15/02/2015 11:48

And hurrah the bookmark is working again!

That Athos gif set ... HOW much eyeliner ?!

SparklesRedHotChileLeather · 15/02/2015 12:17

He looks like I do in the morning when I've not taken it off properly the night before.

Does anyone else find all their guyliner really hot?

MadamedeChevreuse · 15/02/2015 12:25

yes

LetUsPrey · 15/02/2015 12:27

also yes

SparklesRedHotChileLeather · 15/02/2015 12:38

LOL. Go Team A

LetUsPrey · 15/02/2015 13:03

To save Team Aramis the trouble of having to scroll back, blowy gif

Baddz · 15/02/2015 13:05

Well...cookies and cupcakes made. Just need to ice them now.
Have still got a headache from yesterday :( really don't need this in half term!
Dh away again on Saturday for a week this time.
Oh I do hate it :(

AnneOfAramis · 15/02/2015 13:10

Rewatched.

LaComtess · 15/02/2015 13:13

Fuck yeah ref the eyeliner. But only on these men. The idea of Mr C.... .

So, one thing that I don't think anyone has remarked upon yet ref The Return was the young lad from Piñon who was focused on a few times throughout. Esp at the end. Is this Athos's son do we think??

I hope you've put those pistols back in the box neatly Mavis Catherine. Shame you never got any wall action with Athos eh. I'd be fucking bitter and twisted too....

team A have you seen the twitter gifs of your man falling out the window? It looks a bit high Shock

MavisGrind · 15/02/2015 13:19

I kept thinking that they boy they focussed on looked like one of the child actors from Horrible Histories.

I have managed to hang washing outside today for the first time since last summer.

There are many, many things I should be getting on with. I might re-watch instead.

Baddz · 15/02/2015 13:19

My one want one?

LetUsPrey · 15/02/2015 13:36

He'll be fine Comtess. He landed on Team Aramis, so the actual fall from the window was the least of his worries.

Ooo thanks Baddz

Why is it not Friday yet?

Baddz · 15/02/2015 13:59

Oh...just in case you think I have emigrated...
I am intending to give up mn for lent.
And sugar.
I know.
Madness.
But I am going to try :)

FancyFancy · 15/02/2015 14:28

Afternoon everyone

ApricotCrush · 15/02/2015 14:29

Ooh, lovely cakes Badders. Giving sugar up for lent, yes, but MN??? Hmm

Ah yes, Comtess, I noticed the boy. I think we'll see more of him in the future, maybe S3. I wondered if he was Athos's son too.

As far as housework, cooking and washing up is concerned, I do the lot. But then DH is brilliant at DIY and finding TB and he's always busy doing something in the house and playing golf. We also have a big garden, and I contribute next to nothing there, except to complain when he chops stuff down.

And what is this bookmarking thing? I often see place-marking referred to and I have no idea how to do that. Confused
