    Wow girl.. sounds to me like your having a bit of a shocker
    We had to move out over christmas and it was both really stressfull and really exciting at the same time . we had no money for the move either and were at the time trying to get my son in with specialist all over to find out why he wasnt growing.. I guess when things are out of your control, try to see them as a blessing in disguise. If you get kicked out maybe its because there is a new house around the corner that you are MEANT to be in and bring your new lil one home too It took us months and months to find a place, and everytime we got knocked back I thought I couldve tore my hair out.. but then as it turned out we got this place.. which I now call my white walled palace Its simple and pretty close to a main road..the rent is higher then the last place and its by no means secured to us (its a demolition site they are planning to knock down when they get the go ahead for a new highway, tho its most likely not going to happen or affect us for at least 5-10 years..well heres hopeing) But ive never been more fond of a house or felt more at home in my life! and Im soo happy this is the place our little jelly bean is coming home too

    Whos wedding is it that your going too? It sounds pretty ugly to be having to face such heartless women.. Maybe it would be better if you just didnt go, if thats an option I mean.. If they were that horrible to you and you havnt spoken since maybe the bride and groom will have to understand that by inviting them its made things too hard for you at this crucial time to be stressing yourself out to make an appearance? Do they know what happened or are they oblivious? I dont know.. It sounds pretty dodgy to me.. If you do end up going I suppose just ignore them and remember there attitudes are just reflecting on there own problems, stand by your husband and talk to everyone else.. make sure they see just how happy you are and just how invisable they are to you

    If it makes you feel better our old heap gave way last night too!! haha! Im the only one with a liscence and will to drive out of me and DH, and on thursday nights he works till 9pm so I put Sleeping DS in the car and pick him up at about quarter past.. Well we made it there last night... he hopped in and .. .. we didnt go anywhere! LOL. The steering gave way and basically fell out of the engine as I was backing out and made the entire steering wheel completely stiff!! (not so surprising as the car has done over 500000k's!) So we only got home at midnight last night and now we dont have a car at all! We also have absolutely NO savings to get it fixed or replaced :s MIL and DIL are comeing to the rescue for us but it still is going to be a few weeks before we have it back! So today I walked down the shops with my son and the tandem pram to pick up some groceries.. And tell you what.. a tandem pram with a 3 yo.. full of groceries and with a 29 week preggers belly on my front.. well it isnt easy to get 2km in the sun up a hill! But hey... I guess it will do those ever growing thighs of mine some good!

    The stove story makes me cringe a little.. You are lucky to still be here!! When we were living in our last place which was a wooden highset.. I took my son out one day after makeing toast and we played int he yard for half an hour or so... When we got back I could smell plastic burning.. So I put DS to bed but i couldnt figure out where the smell was comeing from.. By the time I realised it was the kettle and toster cavity I opened it to see melted plastic everywhere (from the chord which was wrapped around the metal, a small flame coming up OUT of the electrical chord and the top of the cavity catching alight......

    I was really happy we had an electrical fire ext that day.. It happens sometimes.. Spose to keep us on our toes.. glad to know we both made it through tho huh!

    Hope this all makes you feel better.. I know its not always easy to have a whole heap of crap hit you at once.. But just think.. pretty soon you can have the last laugh and realise just how lucky you really are when your holding your healthy lil baby in your arms. I promise It makes it all worth it! Take care hun <3
