Long time no speak......

Post by Zed2003 »

I have no idea if any of you remember me............

Life is so busy these days that I never seem to get on the computer. I pop in from time to time, but never seem to post.

Anyway, it's good to see you all still on.

Shell, can you believe that Sam and Alex are two? Where has the time gone?
Sam's doing good - becoming a wee cheeky monkey and sitting on the 'naughty step' a lot :lol:

Hope everyone is well

Lovely to see you back, Zoe. I can't believe that little Sam and Alex are now 2, but then Daniel and Charlotte start school in September so I guess that time is moving pretty fast. How's work going? I'm now teaching full-time, which is very tiring - do you work full-time?

Take care.

Hey Jules -

WOW, starting school..With Sam turning two last week we now have to register him for nursery - have to really get my act together on that one...

WORK - OMG, wrong thing to ask. I went back teaching full time from the start and have not enjoyed it since. I'm a Head of Department so my stress levels are continually going through the roof - mainly with staffing issues - and my promise of not staying late/taking much work home etc lasted about 3 days...you'll know what it's like.

I'm off for 3 days though - hence coming back on here...Trying to make the effort and not let work rule my life - it's hard though eh??? What age group do you teach?

Zoeeeeeee

Hello mate, how are you? It's lovely to hear from you, I thought you had left us, its so nice to hear from you.

Well I can't believe that Alex and Sam are two, did he have a good Birthday?

Alex is my world Zoe, not sure if you know but I have been going through so much hell, I am a single Mom now its crazy!! but I am getting stronger.

I have also put Alex's name down for Nursery which he starts next year its so scary!!

Alex is so much into Thomas, Brum, Fireman Sam and thats just a few, what is Sam into?

Hope to hear from you soon, oh and guess what in between doing work and looking after Alex, I created my own website, take a look www.eternal-love.co.uk

Love
Shell

Hi Zoe, lovely to see you back on here again. Also great to read you're off for an apt. with the clinic. I'm still trying....this is our final fresh tho, we've 2 frosties from this round so 2006 will be it, no matter what.

They are little monkeys at 2 aren't they? Maya's night time strips are now a regular event and she doesn't care that it's cold. Maybe it will all stop when she turns 3 this summer (as if!!)

I admire you working full time. I really enjoy my part time work but I miss the extra income.

Take care and pop on when you've the time.
hugs

Shellllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll :D
Hey buddy - do it all not seem a lifetime ago.

Sam's birthday was last weekend and I'm still recovering!! :shock: He's a Thomas and Balamory fanatic - the same 2 dvd's :( :? :( :? :( :? ......

Not fully up to speed with what has happened with you - figured out that you and Lee were no more a while ago - hope you are coping ok and life is becoming all you want it to be. It must be hard being a single mum - but just think of all the cuddles you don't have to share :lol: Sam's a major daddy's boy which did my head in no end for a while, but he's coming round now.

How's Alex and his speech - Sam keeps us amused no end. We bought him a wee drum kit for his birthday - how mad are we???????

Debra - monkey is not the word!!!!!!!! He's not stripping yet though!!!! All the best for this year. I'm really nervous about tomorrow - cold feet more like as I swore that I'd never go through it all again. Anyway, we'll see..........

Can't believe I mamaged this for two days running. LOL

Zoe

Its lovely to hear from you, well Alex has been with his Dad today he went at 10:00 and come back at 16:00. Things can't get any worse for now then what I have been through I have been through hell and back Zoe but there we go, Lee is going to be a Dad again which annoys me cus he is still married to me but at the end of the day there we go.

Alex is very good with his words now I am so proud of him and each day that goes by he just gets better and better.

I know what you mean about the same dvd's I have just brought Alex a couple of different ones but then he just says tank or sam or brum the others may just stay and collect dust.

Hope to hear from you soon.
Love
Shell.

Shell, I was shocked at your message re. Lee. You must be amazingly strong to take it so stoically. Talk about thrown in your face. I'm sure you've got someone (a solicitor?) on it already, but make sure his child support doesn't suddenly dry up when this other child comes along.

I have learnt to become stronger, my Solicitor doesn't know at present about Lee and his situation but it just annoys me so much. I didn't find out through Lee either he was too much of a coward someone else told me which made the whole situation worse. When I confronted him he said it wasn't true the liar but I knew he was lying and then he eventually admitted it. I don't think he could do anything else lower then what he done. The only thing he could do now is beat me up which would be the lowest of the low but what he done anyway I didn't have scars on the outside butI am truly scarred on the inside for life.

Love
Shell.
