Well...I am only just about to type this friggin message as the kids are climbing all over me and fighting and moaning about eachother...Karl shouts instead of talks and goes on about somehting over and over and over again until i lose my rag and send him to bed.
I am really thinking this is one of the worst christmases i have ever had. I have no support here since family all lives across the harbour and if i wanted to see them it would be a 2 hour trip in the cold with this three dragging along. then 2 hours to get home there is no point.
And a certain someone is working EVERY DAY pretty much. if he does get a day off, they cancel it. I am soooo MAAD. We have no time together until christmas day as not only is he working every damn day, but he works until 10 friggin PM. I am starting to forget what he looks like. It is getting harder with these kids always fighting and i am alone :(
Then they are having breakfast and get out a load of clean things and make them dirty so that's more work for me to clean it all. Not to mention spreading the stuff all over the damned house. I am going crazy here. Oh, and then on top of it we get ppl expecting us to do loads of work for them on here and moaning when they dont get instant help. I'm sure they'd like it if we shut the whole lot down then they would have no ppl willing to help them.
When do i get MY turn? I feel like im taking the butt end of everything at this moment. Lonely, stressed, kids driving me crazy.....well I dunno what else to say. I am not happy right now.

Nope at 10pm i doubt that. But u right. There are worse things to be concerned about than this. They're all semi healthy - no disabling illnesses. I found the greatest love i could ever imagine. My dearest can do all those htings sprock - thx for the offer :D i just get so mad when i'm hardly seeing him at all now, and the only day we did have before christmas, he's being called in :( Management has such big drawbacks :( But it still not fair.
Well, i have alot to be thankful for. I think i shall try to cheer up.....the large quantity of sweets and jumk i just went and got should help hehe

Sit down Aristia, take a breather, put kids either to bed early, or send em to a room away from the lounge...lock em in for 1/2 hour.
Have a coffee, play some music, better still listen to a relaxing voice on your music system, loads of relax tapes in the shops !
Lie on the floor, hands on midriff, breathe in, feel the breath part your fingers :o then let the breath out slowly...i'm falling asleep here... :lol:
Get up let out kids give em a big hug... :wub:

or just take a vacation away from NBS for a day...that always helps...I do that from time to time when I just decide not to get on the computer because I have so much I have to get done. Hope it all gets better for you, and I'm sure M3NF isnt happy about it either...

Ahh babes, i know what its like, i know its not easy when on your own, no adult conversation most of the time, apart from the internet, when i do have a normal day i know i still end up working late, but its all for a good reason, (not saying here :P) But i know its never easy with our kids, why you think i work hehe (j/k).
Its a bad time for work as you know, retail has some big draw backs, with xmas, as there is so much to do, and so many sales to make. Its the busy time for shops, and it only gets worse, But once the new year is over i know it will get back to a normal time, to what we are used to, and we start to enjoy the huge payrise, and the time we get back again.
A part time outlook for a new full time life :)
Worth a few weeks of hard times, to get a life time of good times. :)
And just to make you smile..........
I Love you so much

Thanks my hunny. I LOVE YOU TOO.
I guess i get more depressed and pee'd off at times. Cos we have got no christmas presents yet, monday is his only day off before christmas and he phoned me saying he has to go in :S
Mat told me that the guy he works with heard me shouting over the phone lol. oops. But mat didnt blame me, he might not have to go in if lucky. and if he does - it's only to open up.
Poor mat had to go to work in the rain today :( has his waterproofs tho. But still pretty yuk. Kiids quiet in their rooms so far. And i am reinstalling my computer so doing this post on me darling lappy which i love loads.
Ah well. The price of tea in china is ok.

Retail sucks at xmas.
All you do is work work work. No time at home and endless complaining and whinging customers. And not one Happy Xmas... :(
Still just think like this it lasts for about one month then all goes back to normal.
You will then have to much time on your hands and Aristia you will be ranting here for him to go out... ;) ;) (j/k) cos he is doing your head in

...hey! guess what. It's still friggin happening. Not so many late nights now. he's usually home by 8pm. (leaves at 7.30am). But Days off keep getting cancelled. This wednesday (tho he got to come home at 2pm), and friday we had plans to go shopping and also to buy our wedding rings. I can't get down to the shops by myself and getting our rings was a pretty special thing. Wankers at his job :( and wednesday was his first day off in 2 weeks. and guess what! that week they cancelled a day off too. and the week before that. Not like I have anyone else to help me sanity during the day. Kids driving me potty and I'm wondering the value of living now. What's the point. I been depressed for the last 5 years (except when I was actually SEEING Mat). I spose I have another 10/15 years of depression to go and they can be booted out the door :D
