Any way looks like the stalker is coming for tea:rofl: so the kids can tidy up for me...I wonder how long it will take before they decide they're not bored any more:eek: Well, I hate to tell you - that is just families...I resent the fact that OH parents retired nearly 3 years ago and promised that they would come over a visit the children every other week ... they've been twice of their own volition and twice helping us with big jobs...otherwise we have to constantly trapse to Bristol and yet - OH sister was forever dumping her son on them...say no more - beginning to feel blood boil - no she has Myeloma so she will be hiding behind that as an excuse now... |

Must be something about other halves, mine was brought up by grandma with mother still around a bit...Grandma (Mam) and grandad (Dad) split up and then remarried so hubbie has 3 random moms... the best has been Dads new wife
His real dad died when he was 16 but left random brothers and sisters every where! his mum (biological) had 4 other kids all with different dads so if we managed to trace them all ther'd be hundreds:blink: Bio mum wouldn't come to visit cos she didn't want to leave the dog with her Husband??? Families are weird and I can't wait to get to Canada so theres a real reason why they don't visit:eek: Dont have a clue who stalker is, It might be fun to find out,:eek::thumbsup: am worried now! |

Whats Myeloma then?
and was thinking more of Jaws - duh duh, duh duh, duh duh, duh duh, da de da!!! Myeloma - it is a cancer of the plasma cell - so effectively you could call it a bone marrow cancer.... Call me mean...(OH felt same), but as she told us in the new year...I don't know if she was doing the reverse psychology thing, but if so it backfired on her...she said "I know you have plans, don't let this change them" (OH is eldest of 3). We talked and I put my stake in the ground from the off (CP- see what I mean - something has happened to me this year) and said I am not prepared to give up on the dream for our children to have a better life...I was very lucky because he felt the same way too. Its funny - we were both bought up very differently in some respects, but in otherways, we both hate the same things about how we were bought up! |

I agree with you, you cant give up on your dream for any one or anything. I know its not the same but my sis thought we'd stay when she told us she was pregnant again, and i'm of the opinion that i'm opening doors for them as well as my family..... Its up to them to take hold of the handle, so we're going.... whatever! |

Well she was so determined to see the girls - could give a sh*te about me - I told her that Puddleduck had a very runny nose and we'd all had a funny tummy - but she was adamant - so that was my very feeling - if she is so determined then if it kills her...I will say I told you so!
