aww I love seeing the comparison pics!!
Ashley - sounds like it's been a busy week for you! Am so happy about your mum's results! You must be so relieved!!
I'm having such a rubbish day - I'm now sobbing my hormonal eyes out because it's just all getting to me and I really can't deal with it at this moment in time.
1) OH left his phone here nad FIL called and left a voicemail on it. So I listened incase it was urgent and needed to phone his work. It wasn't - but his friend left a voicemail on Friday at 7pm saying "Not being a c**t mate but I'm leaving your restaurant in a minute, where the f**k are you?? Come on need a beer" ..... Now I got a call from OH Friday night at 11pm saying he was having to get the bus home from Chelmsford (a town near us) as the trains were messed up and weren't going to Wickford (where he normally goes on his train route), so they all got diverted to Chelmsford. I said to him "What a coincidence you're in Chelmsford and so is *your best mate*" and he promised me he'd not seen him, he had JUST gotten into Chelmsford and was waiting for the bus in the pub next to the bus stops. So like a mug I believed him ..... well he LIED to me. He clearly had seen his best friend and didn't tell me he was having beers. I keep constantly finding texts from his mates saying about coming to the pub after work (in our hometown) and I know he does because he comes home usually smelling of beer. I'm sorry but what an INCONSIDERATE idiot. I spend all day on my own with the boys, I still have no friends here, because my old friends ditched me when I got pregnant, and all teh mum's at group tend to be people I know from school who used to bully me ... so I don't have a life outside of this flat. Yet, he gets to go and play football and the pub after on a Wednesday night ... how is this not enough for him? Why should he then get to do this behind my back? Can't even text him to say how mad I am at him because his phone is here ... I just don't trust him because it seems to be constant lie after lie - whether it's about seeing his friends, finding cigarettes in his bag (which apparently weren't his), gambling etc etc - he just lies and to be honest am totally fed up of his shit. I want to move nearer to my mum, but we can't because he wants to be here near HIS family and HIS friends.
2) My Nan is traveling down from Sheffield to my Mum's this weekend Thurs - Monday, as she wants to do a meal for my youngest brother's 21st (albeit a month early she hates traveling in October!). Plus, she hardly ever sees the boys because she is a 4 hour trip away and it's too much in one day. So, we're going up on the Thursday and staying until Sunday evening with my mum. Now, we were supposed to be going to a wedding on Saturday and well my family come before my OH's family friends wedding. Might sound selfish but, whilst they're all getting drunk and there I will be a heavily pregnant woman dealing with two small boys by myself and then driving the 2 hour journey home at midnight or later is not on. I can't afford 3 suits and a new dress and can't afford a gift or a card. So I asked OH to tell his parents we were not going weeks and weeks ago ..... he did it LAST NIGHT. Now since 1pm today I've had MIL, FIL and now SIL calling me every hour to talk about it ... texts saying how I need to tell teh couple NOW, how I'm letting them down, how the couple has paid for all our meals, how they were expecting us, how the boys are missing out etc etc ... It feels like they're all ganging up on me and trying to pressure me into changing the plans. Then I just get a text saying "oh don't worry you're just down for the evening" ..... the evening starts at 7pm - the boys are going ot be ratty by 8pm, they'll be moany, whiny, tantrum throwing - Stephen will probably be okay until 10pm, but Henry likes his early bedtime and he is hard work when it comes to trying to settle down. It's just more hassle.
Sorry know this is one big ramble and moan but I feel totally isolated right now and ganged up on, and have no one to turn too
