Piggers Sorry your MIL is a PITA. That's very sad. I'm with Lil_me on this, I'd rather keep a special time at home, than be around hideous relatives. I am sorry for you troubles though.SarahS sending super woman vibes your way to cope with the family of poorlies, put a big 'do not enter, infected area' sign on your door and all hibernate until you're all better....my DS2 tries to deal with it himself (walls, doors, carpet everywhere!) ***hugs for you and your little munchkin**
It's dreadful isn't it! You're there in the middle of the night 3/4 asleep. thinking if you'd just called me, I could have dealt with this far more expediently, and we'd all be back in bed now. No floor/door/carpet etc cleaning necessary.That stuff makes me sad, it's a reminder of her "specialness" IYSWIM
Thanks Dusty and Pollybear I hope so tooHey all!
I can't do anything :mad:Off to the doctors in a bit about my back. Got out of the car earlier and one of my legs didn't really want to support my weight so I nearly collapsed on the wet floor! Hobbled very slowly to where I wanted to go thinking it was just a dead leg and it would sort itself out and whilst it's not slightly better I'm still wobbly walking
Really need to get this sorted though as my lower back is painful to touch and I'm fed up of getting pains down my legs, also it started hurting last Thursday and it's still not completely right!
Fed up now
Sorry to hear this Gryfon Hope your Doc has something sensible to say. (((hugs)))OOh Sarah forgot to say (((hugs))) for you and DD - glad it wasn't mine...I haven't got that much bedding:rotfl:
I hope she is settling down now...
PMSL Valli. Thankfully we've got loads of bedding. I could do with a few more mattress protectors. I've got 2 spares, but she went through both of those.
Soappie That sounds so exciting. How lovely to be looking forward to work on Monday. With a new challenge, and a boss that really values your skills!!! ACE!!!!
Thanks too Vanilla.
She's looking a little brighter now, and was asking for a McDonalds Breakfast!!! :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: Right before she vommed again!! :rolleyes: She currently tucked up in the sofa with a medicine drink' (dioralyte) that she's not impressed with AT ALL!!
*****************************
Typed too soon! She's still chucking poor baby. She's like I was about 10days ago. Evil bug.
Heigh-ho. At least I can be here with her without any drama. There are pluses to being a SAHM. Cos to be sure there's enough minuses to being a one income family!! :rotfl:MMSSB Club Founder Member

I heard on the radio sometime ago that cats do better with an 'y' sound at the end of therir name! Apparently they can hear it better - so Phoebe fits that one (or socksy but you could just bet it would end up sexy).

Afternoon all -
wow! A couple of night shifts and I miss 25pages worth! Hugs to all poorly and worried people, esp lady-liberty. Hoping all is well.
I'm doing the "if I pretend I wasn't working all night I'll make it through to the evening without falling asleep in my dinner" thing. Thus I am flying in style and my list is done! I've also achieved a WM load and having dug out an old slo cooker from student days I've discovered I can feed myself for the week on seemingly just one chicken...
Grey day in the Bay here and the decorators are glossing the communal areas of the block. Thus I think I'm disappear into the sofa for the afternoon and think clever dissertation-related thoughts :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
I must resist the voice in my head telling me I've been up for 18 hours and it must, therefore, be wine-a-clock...
