Well, he's found this site so I expect he will now read this thread so of course now I will put nothing but compliments Perhaps I should change my name to Mrs J, LOL, or even 'Andy's ex', that has a nice ring to it.
Darling, if you're reading this, what do you reckon? How about 'Lunatic ex-wife?'
Anyway, update. He phoned this morning in response to a text I sent him asking for those work files I need for my Christmas newsletter. He said he thought I would be out. I was supposed to be out but when the alarm went off at 7.30 this morning I just couldn't drag myself out of bed. It was cold and dark and raining and DD4 was still asleep so I figured we'd miss dance class for today. It just didn't seem tempting.
He said he had the disc and could bring it round this morning.
He arrived at 10.30am and that's when he found this thread as I'd left all my windows up from the night before He smiled at me and said 'Divorce Busting??' I kinda laughed and shut down the window. Lets hope he doesn't ban me from the house when he reads all the fallings out we have had, on here
Oh well, he can't ban me as I'm paying for the Christmas dinner
He started installing all the programmes onto my computer and we chatted about some pre-Christmas publicity I'm planning for my books. Then DD4 gave him a card she drew for him this morning and sat on his knee.
I got him a coffee and we sorted out times etc for this weekend. I asked him if he'd pick me up from the bus station on Monday night as I will be loaded with presents and won't be able to walk up the hill with all of them.
He said yes. Then he warned me 'not to go overboard' with the present buying and not to get him anything expensive. I told him I wasn't going to as I don't have the money to go overboard, just a couple of things for each girl, something small for him and a couple of photographs of me after my makeover, which is my present to myself
I told him not to worry, I have sorted the food - it will all be delivered direct to my door and I'll take it to his on Christmas Eve. I just need him to buy the alcohol as I'm not getting that as well (money won't stretch that far).
Dear, if you're reading this, please buy me a large bottle of Bailey's (and some Irish coffee and some chocolates ).
Anyway, while he was here, my post arrived, including some balloons and stuff from the Homeless Charity, Shelter. I am going to make the girls donate their pocket money to Shelter this year to help the homeless and other needy children so we are going to have a themed Shelter Christmas Party. I will be asking my friends etc to donate money to Shelter instead of giving me a present.
The trouble is, both me and Andy can't blow up balloons (don't ask me why, we just can't), but DD1 can so Andy said that she could do all the balloons for us.
Andy missed his college this morning (freezing, horrible day - he couldn't get out of bed either), so we chatted for a bit. Then he had to go because he's running another home ed meeting now. He said he'd install more programmes another day. He hasn't explained how to do it so I hope I figure this out as I have hundreds of e-newsletters to send.
I said I'd call him on my cell phone to let him know what time the bus arrives back on Monday.
Then I took DD4 to nursery and it downpoured on us. My hair is soaking, my coat is soaking, my jeans are sticking to me, they are so water logged. The poor thing looked like a drowned rat when we got there.
Perhaps I should change my name to Mrs J, LOL, or even 'Andy's ex', that has a nice ring to it.
He smiled at me and said
