Bandit's Blurt and Vent Thread

Oh cool, thanks. Putting on normal weight sounds good. :) Hope she enjoys her visit.

Normal weight - he put on 350 grams (12 ounces) in a week :eek: He's finally got the hang of breastfeeding (with mum using nipple shields). Even in the few days I was there I could see him filling out.

And he reserved his first smiles for me! :D
 
Aww! Glad things are going well and your got those smiles!

:heart:

Fabulous! Those early days are so nerve-wracking. Glad everything is going well. :heart:
 
BANDIT:heart: is having a great time spoiling her grandson & her brother, family & her mum will all be on the farm over the weekend as well as her son so she should really enjoy her time there, back here Wednesday afternoon & it can't get here quick enough, I'm missing her greatly:(:heart:

plus I'm out of clean dishes to eat off. :eek:

Wow, Gil...Is this some sort of weird Aussie joke, or are you in that bad of shape that you can't clean up dishes after yourself anymore?

Fantastic!

He was joking Noor! :D I got home to a clean kitchen and bathroom, partially vacumed house (His shoulders gave out ;) ) and a lovely "welcome home" :devil:

Oh I am glad! I was hoping it was a joke.

welcome home!
 
I'm sorry but you might be happy to know I did get a lot of others concerned BANDIT:heart: would come home to a disaster.

Well there was blood on the carpet in the bedroom and some on the wall plus the bed linen....;)

*Sir had a fall when He was hypo and scraped His elbow and knee. He blacked out and bled all over the carpet* I've googled ways to get dried blood out of carpet - the simplest way seems to be with dish detergent in cold water, soak with a sponge then blot with paper towel.

Yikes! Everything okay now?
 
Went to the doctor last week to get a repeat prescription for HRT. Doc suggested I go off it for a while to see how I go.

I lasted 4 days :eek: I started bleeding heavier (I was having some spotting anyway), feeling more tired, joints started to ache a bit, and Sir had noticed my moods weren't as good.

I took a pill this morning and we both went back to bed for a nap. Now I'm not sure if it's the pill or the nap but I feel lots better - so bugger listening to the doc I'm back on it for another year :D
 
No one knows your body and how you feel like you.

:rose:

The pills are costly & when the Doc said she might find no difference off the pills to when she was on them it made sense to at least try a break from them but it didn't happen so back on the pills.

Up side is now we know that now isn't the time for BANDIT:heart: to cease the treatment.

Noor, All is back to our type of normal apart from the above.

Good to hear! I am also experimenting with hormonal drugs...
 
I took BANDIT:heart: out for a loverly grilled fish meal at one of our favorite spots, a great place to watch the world pass by. :D
 
Sir is really really happy :)

A friend of his has offered us the use of his corporate box at the speedway for the rest of the season - which means we can get in for free :nana: I know He has really missed going so this will be good for Him to get out and watch something I know He loves so much.

Although I might have to restrain Him if there's a crash....:D
 
My daughter has decided to separate from her partner. There have been problems with gambling and lying on his part, he told her he'd paid the phone bill when he hadn't and it was in danger of being cut off when she found out about it - and she had to pay it out of her savings. Can't be without a phone when you have a young baby and dodgy mobile reception :mad:

He also came at her as if he was going to hit her but punched the wall instead - it's still just as bad though. I think he would have if she hadn't yelled at him as he came up off the bed "Don't you bloody dare hit me!". He's got a criminal past and some dodgy associates and she doesn't want to be mixed up in any criminal activities he might get involved with.

If she can't trust him it isn't worth staying. She's moving back with her dad for a while and hoping to move into a house in that area and apply for the single mother's pension (DPB - Domestic Purposes Benefit it's called in NZ). I've sent her $500 and if she needs more she only has to ask.

I'm pretty sure you didn't think he was good for her a while now. It sounds like you were right. Hopefully she will be far better off without him.

:rose:
 
Bandit, I am sorry to hear about your daughter's ex. I hope she is safe at her dad's now.

She's not there yet, but will be in the next few days. She can go to her brother's if it all gets too much before she gets time to organise the move proper. He's only about 20 minutes' drive away.

I am sad that it hasn't worked out for her but she has done her best and I think she will be much better off out of there with family close by.
 
She's gone already. She couldn't put up with any more of his shit until Sunday. It sounds like he's getting more and more back into the drugs and criminal activities that involves.

This is a man of 32 who seems to have the emotional maturity of a gnat.:mad: She now realises that he's been taking advantage of her and probably telling her lies throughout the whole 16 months they've been together. She's insisting that he pay her back the money he's "borrowed" (what she can get out of him anyway) and make an effort to see his son - she's not going to bother running around after him if he can't make an effort too.

She rang on Tuesday night while I was at the gym, and she and Sir had a long talk. I rang her back yesterday. She was at her brother's but going back to her place to pack up more stuff and head off to her dad's. She'll stay there for a while and get herself organised to move into her late uncle's vacant house.

She's very hurt and was blaming herself but we both have told her that HE fucked up not her and she has no reason to feel guilty. He said much the same thing that my ex said when I left him..."I didn't think you'd really go" LOL isn't he the stupid one!
 
Just heard that all went well with my daughter's appointment with Work & Income NZ and she will be getting a weekly benefit starting next week. Some good news for a change in what has been a rather crap couple of weeks.

My son put up some more pics of the baby on Facebook yesterday. He's grown, and has a lovely cheeky smile! *clucky nannie posting* :D
