    Krystal - what a very sweet thing to say. Thank you, I needed a boost this morning.



    Don't say JUST Admin!!! Admin is what makes the world go around. I worked Admin for ages after I ran away from the law (not as exciting as it sounds!! I am legally trained but I don't practice!) no high flyer would be going anywhere without a good Admin person behind them :A
    I know, I know :D I'm a very good admin'er if i do say so myself ;)
    I usually say anyone can do admin but only a few do it well:cool: I'm missing it a little bit now :( at least when I was mothering my sales team I got paid for it and didn't have to actually wipe their bums! :rotfl:

    Planning a trip to the park today, I have bottles of juice and water chilling in the fridge, the breadmaker has just beeped so I will make some cheese butties and dh is going to nip to asda for mik and flour, so will get him to pick up some chewee bars, I have also made some fairy cakes that we will take too:money: We are going to take bikes/scooters, balls and the dog, lets hope it stays nice now:D

    ooh sounds lovely, have fun!!

    Edgar slept really well last night, just wish I'd known that before staying up for his midnight/1am ish feed which he didn't want until 2am :rolleyes: and just to annoy me Chris decided to get up 2hrs earlier than usual, i managed to get about an hour while he watched tv in our room with a cup of milk but then he decided he wanted to get dressed so stripped and then just as Ed had woken and he'd just got the milk flowing the doorbell went, pah! I'm [STRIKE]knackard[/STRIKE] rather tired.
    Mum called earlier and was all are you ok? you sound upset... well yes I'm very tired and now annoyed coz your pestering me about a blooming parcel as if it's mega urgent when its just a tv for the caravan!!!!:rolleyes::p

    on the bright side, I've already made tea :cool: Lamb stew, didn't manage yesterday because I didn't want to leave Ed's side in case he was sick again so while he was chilled this morning I bunged it all in the pot so I just need to switch the oven on later:D
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    Do Doctors still do pregnancy tests? I'm pretty sure the surgery I'm at, and the one my sister goes too, don't do it. Apparently OTC pregnancy tests are mostly accurate. I think they are just cheap!

    I had to take one not long ago, as I felt really run down, and had blood tests etc (I was also worried as my hair was thinning V badly) and it came back fine, but I have elevated white blood cell count, next month - same, month after - same. As far as I know, I hadn't been ill, or had cuts. That's when they told me the implanon is not 100%, I could of screamed, so I had to buy a test! I still wonder why I have white cells, maybe I'm super bionic.

    Oh and if you want cheap preggo tests, Semi Chem do them for £1.20.

    I still LOL when I remember me and OH buying me one, we were in Inverurie (town outside Aberdeen) and went to the Boots, OTT prices which I about fainted at, and the woman behind the counter was totally SCOWLING at OH, maybe because he was older than me, and I looked about 12!

    I didn't even know I was pregnant, wasn't till my mum asked me if my periods had came that I even wondered. Mothers know everything!

    Hi all

    Hope everyone is enjoying the sunshine.

    I have a busy day today getting the school uniforms in. We seem to have finally found a rountine that works or me and helps me feel a little more human, im going to bed around 11 and letting DH do the 12 0 clock feed which means I get to sleep till 5 :T:T, oh the joys of sleeping 6 hours straight.

    Tomorrow is my wedding anniversary, so I also have to pick up a little something for DH. We have a lovely night in planned :rotfl:

    For thoose that remember we had a sex ban from I was 20 weeks pregnant and still havent had more than a cuddle.

    All that is going to change tomorrow night :o

    I think its time to start giving serious consideration to contraception, for tomorrow night we are going to be careful but we need to decide on something long term :confused:

    Im not keen on chemicals ie the pill, depo, implants. Im not keen on abortive methods either :confused: Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

    Whats abortive methods :o? I guess the only thing would be condoms? I can't think of anything else, unless you get the coil as thats very low hormone apparently, as is the implant (though I've got that and I don't reccomend it, though my sister has and has no side effects)

    Hope you have fun!

    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.
