Morning all ladies!! I have a beautiful clean house, a line FULL of washing (and i mean i've got no more space whatsoever left, and i have the old hills hoist!) and kiddies in bed (apart from Xander,who's refusing to take naps now!) SO im treating myself to some relaxing time until the kids get up, then off to do the dishes and make bed (and put away all that washing LOL!

hey rory - you can pm me that link if you want didnt know guys b*tched?! interesting... i like the idea of an s&m holiday, im in desperate need of one of them!!

IK - glad you enjoyed camping, you need to live closer so i could take the little man while you go ride your poor pony

Nickel - my XBIL and his gf drove us all home (i was only about 2kms away anyway) I would love to be able to afford RACV but im living from week to week as it is, thats just another expense i cant afford... XH shouldnt have a prob, ill just get himto call his mum, she can come get him, then he can find the keys somewhere in there (cant remember where i left, them, think in the boot where i was fiddling around in Allies nappy bag) and drive back here. I had to put daycare off until tomorrow (luckily there was enough spaces!) since its too far away for declan to walk (dont have the toddler seat for the pram).

Well, i was talking to this agency i am with thats been giving me a big hand (putting me onto counselling, helping me with extensions for daycare for the kids etc etc) and they think hthey may be able to get some funding to help me get to perth. Im going to try and get as much as i can together, but i need a few thousand dollars, easily... They think also because there was violence in the realtionship, we will also be able to get a few different agencies to help. I just have to show t=its the best for the kids. Whcih i can show, easily. Over here, we have noboday visit anymore. my MIL never see's the kids, even though she goes to see my SIL everyday, and take treats to my nephews. and she babysits non stop. My poor kids miss out... but if i go back to perth, i will have alot more family support, and my family will LOVE having the kids back. Mum actually writes each of them their own emil and asks that i sit the child on my lap, and read them the email, and follow the instructions (big kisses and cuddles sort of thing.) they love it! and then we write back. So they take more interest in their grandchildrens lives and they are 3000kms away... MIL is less than 5kms away. Sorry to ramble on, it just really upsets me that my children are missing out, because the IL's believe everything is y fault, and their son is not to blame for anything...

BBL, Anneliese is up...
