I don't right now Confused - tomorrow HE organised that I should be available from 12 midday on for 'Virgin' to fix our land line (there is a fee to pay for cancellation/not annswering door etc)(it's important to him to phone his Mother in Turkey), I have to go and take out a couple of grand to pay for DIY bills (we're doing DIY en-mass right now and the bills, well- they have to be paid for as there'll be no interest as he well knows/wants) plus he has just phoned me to ask me to go with him to his boss' MIL's funeral tomorrow at midday, ok fine, I would - but where am I supposed to be and when? Confused His bosses' MIL died 2 wks ago btw and now he was told to be fair.

BTW I ring my sisters in Turkey often on their mobiles- he may already know this, but,if not: if he calls Phonecheap first 08715510008 then it only costs 8p per min Thumbs Up


Thanks for that - will pass it on Nod Thumbs Up - but because of 'landline' he did use his mobile last night and it cost him ÂĢ2.00 - I'm not getting him excited because they talk c''p anyway. Ninja

I thought I might be DID Ninja Roll Eyes - just wondered where I should be first - (god help the poor 90 yr old MIL died 2 weeks ago and now hubby's boss has told him?. Long time for a funeral imo - but what do I know? Confused


Well, funerals can sometimes take a while, my Friends did the other week Nod As for the question of where to be first, can you not duplicate yourself, rather like a gremlin, I find that very useful when Mr Devil arranges things and I end up doing them Roll Eyes

I might well have to 'duplicate' myself DID Confused as we 'have to talk' when he gets home? Right? Confused Confused Roll Eyes *Waits on stand by* This should be fun! Confused Shake Head Btw, It is a case of hubby's boss being secretive - believe me! Nod He has millions and money talks/dictates if you know what I mean.

I know EXACTLY what you mean, infact, my Boss is the same. She is a Millionaire and doesn't know what to do with herself most of the time Shake Head She is also a very close Friend and it's hard to seperate it sometimes.

I can go days without hearing from her (she spent 3 months in the SOuth of France this year), after a months skiing etc...you get the picture...then, I get phone calls at 08.15am on SUnday Morning asking about work...Confused...it drives me nuts, but, I suppose keeping her sweet pays my bills.

Now, about this dupicating yourself...Ninja Laugh

I think your date will be with the Virgin man.


I think so too Cosmo Nod - I can't see otherwise - most of them are hubby's problems - I'm just there to give into his priorities tbh which is OK, I don't mind helping him, obviously. (he'd better not run up an overpaid bill btw, he never has so that's one's in favour).

Well hubby does what you're doing and I have to pick up his pieces and smile accordingly. I do understand but I'm curious of the priorities which lie ahead - will let you know - he'll be home in less than an hour, should be fun!

Exactly. You're the support system for him.
I'm the same - and I don't mind. But just sometimes.......well you know, it all looks like a bliddy long list of puppeteering! Big Grin

I would seriously give your OH bosses MIL's funeral a miss, apologising for prior engaements you can't get out off. Wait for the Virgin man Nod Big Grin, and can you arrange with someone or leave a key while you pop out to pay the bills Thumbs Up

Is that the fag yer smokes, or the fag that attends the likes of Cameron?

My X expected me to see to the:
House i.e. cleaning(he wouldn't have a cleaner)cooking,shopping, pay bills etc.etc.
Kids
VAT
Books
horses
cats& dogs
not in any particular order, as long as his needs were met first!!!!!!
In my spare time??? I was lucky if I had a f*****g bath..
Hence he is my EX. thank goodness.... Thumbs Up
What did he do??? Get drunk, ran a good business into the ground, which laid off a lot of man power,used me as a punch-bag, guess who's fault it was??? Not his in his mind..By then I'd had enough of multi-tasking..
