I'm home but too lazy to start the daily chat today.

Today is the anniversary of my mum's and my nan's death. Usually I make the 2.5 hour each way drive to go up to the grave and put flowers down. But this year I just don't feel up to it. So, I hope they forgive me but I'm just going to nip into town and get some flowers for the house. I do feel as if I should go though, so feel a bit guilty.

other than that, just a quiet day here. Yesterday was reall busy and I feel the need for a chilled out day. That said I need to go into boots and have an argument with the pharmacist. Amber has just been put onto new tablets and her consultant said start week 1 on 10mg a day, week 2 on 20mg a day then from week 3 onwards 30mg a day. So, I got the prescription from the doctor who understood that the correct ongoing dose was 30mg and gave me a prescription for 84 tablets to last a month. I put the prescription into boots, had to wait for them to be ordered. Yesterday hubby went in to collect them, which he did with no problem. Only when I checked they had only given Amber 10mg... 30 tablets with a new repeat prescription for 10mg a day. Grrrr. I am really irritated, they have obviously had a conversation with the doctors surgery who had only half read the notes from the consultant and decided to cut her dose between them, without mentioning it to me.

Flippin heck, it's hard enough dealing with her various problems and getting the medications down her without having bloody chemists messing us around.

Ok rant over :rotfl:

Hi There, Its my Brothers Ana today also so... BIG HUGSS to you, I could not afford flowers so I picked some out the garden, I think If you take a moment to think about them and remember happy times I am sure they wont mind,

OMG red, um NO

it's a nightmare, yesterday hubby and I had a 3 hour conversation where we must have thrown 5000 names at each other. We just can't agree. The problem is, things that are really old fashioned in french are cute and modern here and vice versa. For example... Maude is a very trendy name in montreal... No way on god's earth is any child of mine being called bloody Maude!!

Then we have the kids who are quite vocal about what they don't like, we almost agreed on Amelie but Jasmine absolutely hates it and is showing no signs of coming around. We want the kids to have a say so it looks like that one is out too. Olivia was my Nan's name so that was always a maybe, but it's on hubby's old fashioned list. So that will probably end up a middle name too. My top 5 are Scarlett, Brooke, Rose, Ruby and Olivia which he hates x 5. His are Zoe Genevive, some bloody french version of margaret, magalie and I can't remember the 5th horror.

So, there you go :rotfl:

:rotfl: Dearie me! Hopefully you'll be hit by inspiration (that you all agree on) at some point!

Luc - Joshua is my top 'boys' name should I ever have one, can't remember when or why I decided that

BB - there's 26 in it now on that thing that we don't mention Or even less now since I was so slow posting

Joshua and Grace were completely out of the blue - they just 'feel' nice/right if you know what I mean.

Audrey is my maternal grandmother who is senile and doesn't even know she has children let alone grandchildren and great grandchildren which I find terribly sad. I also liked Alice (how does that sound Toto?) but Hubbles wasn't as keen for a middle name although it might make the short list if I ever have a second girl.

Eric was my maternal grandfather who passed last October.

Leonie is another we considered (again, how about it Toto?) but then Grace popped in our heads and nothing else has trumped it so far (although I quite like Ruby...)

I think there might be quite a few Rubys around born this year/ last year thanks to a certain catchy song!

Well, funnily enough Alice is hubby's grandmother's name, she is 93 so I wouldn't mind but... there is a tune Alice Alice who the F is Alice... know the one? Being in the industry we have to think about this stuff so that name got rulled out.:rotfl:

Well I was named after a T-rex song. :eek: Not even one of their better ones. i was almost a Jane until Dad was listening to that LP:p

Alicia? kinda alice but kinda franglais too?

I like grace, we worked with a band called Grace though so for us it has other meanings. Lovely guys but a sad story which ended up with them being dropped from the record label.
