    Bum missed post #1000 - well done mhagster.

    Big hugs mel - it amazes me how kids can just bounce back after causing moments of complete horror and it's us that are left battered bruised and shaking :confused:.

    WOW this thread has been chatty lately I am most impressed. The sun is shining blissfully and you are all focused on Christmas more than ever.. that is dedication! I salute you all my Christmas nutters :T

    Mhagster I LOVE your names for your children.. Untidy Daughter and Grumpy son.. BRILLIANT :rotfl:You are such a wonderful mummy doing that for her and I just know when she is my age she will cherish that. Me and my mum used to cook a lot when I was little and if I had those recipes now it would bring back a lot of fond memories.

    Pips mum Oh Thank you so much for replying and letting me know about that.. everything I have read suggest scary things and this just puts my mind at ease :AIt's lovely to have you on the thread and I hope you love being a part of our Christmas madness. This year will be a magical one for you won't it with your new son :j Oh and P.S You could have took me a pic of the cake before you ate it :rotfl:

    Anglea Thank you xx I am really giggling about all of your folders and notebooks. I see that I am not the only notebook addict around here.. they are just so pretty aren't they ;) Maybe the best thing to do would be to choose your plan and print off the necessary sheets and then have a think how you think would work best. I am going to put mine in a ring binder and add additional lined paper notation pages.

    Chocolate Orange You spending money on crafts? Surely not? :eek:That doesn't sound a lot like you hahah!! I am still addicted to the Gorjuss stamps right now but Magnolia, Sarah Kay and Rachel Ann miller still make my heart race un-naturally for a rubber stamp. :D I also once tried nostrils.. and it was pretty scary.. no noses is the way forward :rotfl:

    mum2one I shall pm you in a bit about the mystery shop :j

    TBC...

    Mel: If you saw daughter's bedroom you would call her Mhaggie's untidy daughter too! and if you had a conversation (all be it one sided) with my son you would say gosh, he's a grumpy son isn't he?!!
    then there is dd2, 9 going on 19........can I wear just a touch of eye shadow and will you please do my nails!

    Hi Mel, I've just spent the last few hours or whatever it's been, printing off the 18 week plan, the factual parts, not the forms.

    Probably finish doing it tomorrow as I spent a long time trying to fix my printer which was playing up and still got some to do. Annoying as I had to copy and paste it into a different programme as it wouldn't print off the main site.

    You mentioned ring binders - I bought a couple of huge ones right at the start of the year. Before long I could probably start a shop with all these folders, notebooks and files!

    At least I'm not the only one.

    I promised to carry on replying to everyone but I just realised the deadline for my work is monday and the weekend doesn't count so I have only got tonight to get it done and sent with fingers crossed it gets there.. OOPS!

    Went to the doctors bright and early today but the results hadn't come back.. WASTE OF TIME! The doctor called me back later in the day to tell me my kidneys are fine but I am anemic. My blood count is eight which is apparentely dangerously low but I have just got to take iron and have regular blood tests now to see if I can get them up. I didn't ask what the next step would be if I couldn't.

    little PinkLadyMel is very happy today and has been a very good girl. Would you believe it though.. she still had to be told off today for sneaking off to go upstairs alone! Never learns! She had a huge bump on her head yesterday but today it is non-existent so I am very greatful.

    Thank you very much everyone for your love and support you are all fabulous.

    I'm sorry if I got any of you addicted to notepads and ringbinders.. it's an obsession I have always had. Lee's mum always makes fun of me because I have to have everything planned and written down in my notepad.

    I have had the last laugh on many an occasion though when they needed some info.. MWAHAHA!!


    WELL DONE MHAGS on the 1000th post.. if it was going to be anyone if would be you LOL I should have took bets ;)

    Don't forget everyone to be doing your folders ready for Rudolph day ;)
