Yes - you're quite right, thomasalfie2. The cleaning will wait (unfortunately)!

Welcome thomasalfie2. I`ve just got eldest daughter, aged 49, living here, but even she`s a trial at times!

Darling (or Dearest) Daughter. It took me a wee while to work it all out as well. If you click on Acronyms at the top right-hand side of the blue bar, it'll give you a list of what they all mean.

hi could you tell me what DD means etc not used to this ha ha

Hello thomasalfie Pleased to meet you. I think you'll find Gransnet a good place to come to for a chat. So many discussions about this and that, and also lots of support when things get the better of us sometimes!

welcome from me also I'd much rather have stroppy babies anyday than stroppy teenagers at least you know how to handle babies and they don't answer back.My DCs have never been that stroppy DD a wee bit more outspoken than her brothers but she is a carbon copy of me so what do you expect says OH.I would tend to remind DD when she is in a strop how lucky she is to have your support and to make sure she finds playgroups etc for the babies so they will be getting the pleasure of playing with other children before they go off to nursery this will give you a fab break so you can join us here on Gransnet

Welcome thomasalfie2 I am sure you will find plenty on Gransnet to keep you coming back. Although I do not have GC living with me I lived alone for 16 years while DH worked away

(smile)

oh thanks for that i just thought it would be nice to come on here and have chats when ihave a bit of time to myself smile

Hello thomasalfie2 and welcome to Gransnet. People dip in and out during the day, so sometimes people take time to respond to posts. absent's advice is helpful; if you click on the Active box (scroll up to top left) you'll see what topics are current and you can just click on the links and join in the conversation.

Glassortwo lives with her children and grandchildren and when has lots of twins in the family. I'm sure you'll soon get to know regular posters and find a listening ear.

My husband often works away and it can be a bit wearing at times, but fortunately the youngsters still at home are of the non-stroppy variety.

thanks will people see my message and reply i am new to all this ha ha

Hi. I know that there are other grandparents in Gransnet in similar situations who will be able to share stories and advice. I'm just saying hello, as my life is very different from yours. While you're on here, why don't you have a browse round and see what else we're talking about and you might find something that interests you and makes you feel less alone.
