    I hope wee Fraser is doing o.k now, must be scary when something like that happends to your kids. I don't blame him for liking his own bed, if I could get away with it I wouldn't get out of mine!! Any idea what it was he reacted to?

    Back again :)

    Spent most of yesterday in A+E with Fraser, he had an allergic reaction to something and his face swelled up so much he couldnt open his eyes. It got to evening and we were starving so I went to get us some food. The WRVS was closed so I had to go to Costa(all that was open), 2 sandwiches, a coffee, a drink and little fruit salad bowl were just over £15 :eek: - and my sandwich was horrid!

    So we are spending a day at home today as he is still swollen and dosed up on anti-histemines to try and bring the swelling down. They wanted to keep us in over night but I explained that Fraser wouldnt settle and it would be an absolute nightmare. He has to have his bedtime rountine and all his bedtime things otherwise he will have a massive meltdown :(

    Might go to the park later though as it always cheers him up.

    I can totally relate to the changes of routine causing meltdowns! Though, interestingly, with DS it was changes of route (e.g.walking a different way into town) that always caused the worst ones!

    Hope Fraser is better soon. xxx

    We think it might have been lanolin from some handcream that his keyworker was wearing. He is doing much better now, but still very tired :)

    He bit the nurse trying to take his temperature because she got into his face. I had nipped out to go to the toilet - stupid b*tch. She has such a cat bum face when she left.

    Hi everyone, hope there is room for a little one :D Sarah directed me over to you. Believe it or not I joined on the first thread (last post 28.8.08) but it fell to the side pretty rapidly! However I am back with loads of enthusiasm. I am not in debt (as such) so all my PAD's will be going into my isa savings. So far (only started yesterday) I have payed in £4.02 and today I am putting in £2.79 :j I aim to put at least £1 a day in :T

    Thanks for all your support guys, you seem like a wonderful bunch of dfw's _luv__by_DruEmotes.gif

    Edit ~ Oh btw I am known as Pap around mse, saves you writing my whole name :rotfl:

    Yay PaP!!! :D

    Omg.. so many pages.. so little time:confused:
    Thought things in pipland were chugging along nicely.. OH had full week of work.. then the rains came again...
    Our roof now leaks and it was too wet for him to do fencing & gardening jobs..
    My wipers packed in on the way to work .. rang the breakdown service ('cos I pay for it!!) told her the problem .. ie wipers not working.. she said 'is it raining?'... No, I said, I just thought I'd pull on to the hard shoulder & test them & sit and wait until someone comes to fix them!!!.. is it just me???
    Got a temp fix.. so need to buy a part to fix.. now indicators are going off and on.. omg I know they are suposed to do that..lol.. but they not doing it right!! OH's car loan finishes in August & I was hoping for a at least 6 months clear to zap the ccs..the way this is going I will need to spend on my car or buy new:confused:

    Ok rant over..
    PAD 12.00 to holiday fund... i so need that holiday!
