Sorry my angel,
i dozed off, oh yes i could imagine it was a big shock for you with your mum driving into the house.
Wow 25 years without an accident, so their is some of us out their 😄
i will probably have to go into spotlight and bunnings as i need speaker cable and mum does not know what type.
it should be ok as Sunday is usually quiet.
hugs my angel, i hope you managed some rest this afternoon and the giirls calmed down a bit.
Jacques

Hi my angel, sorry i missed your post 😞
yes we went out for dinner, we had chinese in the car at the park, it was nice and quiet and we enjoyed ourselves.
the shops where a little busy and mum and i got into an argument about what size photo frame to get, i let her chose and told her she got the wrong one, i bought it and she came back into the shop and agreed she picked the wrong one, so i had to get a refund and buy the one i picked out ![]()
No Karen, not more speakers, the main ones in the loungeroom i had the cables going directly from the speakers to the amp, it did not look nice, mum asked me to run the cables properly along the skirting boards, and i did not quite have enough cable, so i had to buy some more.
hugs my angel, i hope your afternoon went well and the girls calmed down a bit, i am sure they are getting restless too 😞 , just this time of year i am sure a lot of mothers would agree.
missing you my angel, thought of you all afternoonn, i am home now, back to my safe place, back to my prison.
Jacques

Hi my angel, i know it is an oasis, it just feels like i am trapped, i never chose this house, it is where i have to be because of my seperation anxiety, that is why i refer to it as my prison, i feel trapped.
it was very nice in the park, it was just mum and i, and about 8 mag pies 😄 all fighting over who was going to get some rice 🙂
Oh my mum already approves, i got one side done, it was just the left side was not long enough, their are 5 speakers in all, and only one about 10cm to0 short aaaaahhhhhhhh, it is always the way, so close, yet so far 😄
how are you my angel? how are you feeling?
maybe a little hug is in order 🙂

Oh great then hugs to you my friend 🙂
I know my angel, i should not be so selfish, i know your situation is way worse than mine.
It sounds like your mother is trying to stall the enevitable, please Karen, i beg of you, you know what you are doing, so do it your way, it is your house, your life, she has no say anymore over your life. it sounds like she is scared of losing you and the girls, or scared of losing control over you. Karen, please always keep in the back of your mind this is your life now, not hers.
your girls want to move in ASAP and so do you. please don't delay, i think it iwll be better for you and the girls and better for your mother to let you go, sort out her problems.
I so know the feeling of having no where else to go, i have been trapped here since 1995, i like the house i like the yard, but the town is horrible, the people are horrible and i feel like i am in enemy hands, like a prisoner of a town that hates me 😞
