  • Going to walk to the shops later, Mum took all the nice food on holiday with her! And I went to two supermarkets yesterday and couldn't find sparkling flavoured water, do they not drink that Oop North?

    We do drink it, I currently have 3 bottles in the fridge

    Wi3adora - what colour are you going? This is the shortest I've had my hair since I was about 13, so my Dad asked me if I was going to dye it bright red like I had it then :o

    I'm sticking with blonde, had highlights done at the hairdressers last time but I can't afford that now so I have a box upstairs of a nice blonde so I'm hoping an all over
    colour will freshen it up??

    Tempted to write back, 'Dear baby, I was feeling that I couldn't wait to meet you, but after your last email I'm not so sure...'

    meant to be a laughing smilie here!


    Supermarkets have something similar at a more :money: price - I bought Andrew a Santa babygro in Early Baby size in Mr T's

    thanks, i'll have a look. haven't forgotten about the stuff for Andrew, my sister us due in 2 weeks so just waiting to see if she needs anything before I package it all up.

    decided not to bother with dream feed and Jack slept from 10pm til 4am! Bit worried that he's missing out on a feed if he carries on like this so I'll have to try and get him to take more during the day. Has just peed all over my bed so need to strip that now :rolleyes:

    We have a pregnant lady joining us at sling meet :j(Hi, SJ :wave:) Lots of new people for Jack to meet and have cuddles with!

    3 - ar u joining us?! (I will text u in case u don't come on)

    Where does the time go? :think:

    Asda George also had cute Christmas clothing, but I'd already bought in Tesco by then!

    Don't fret about the stuff - to be honest, the Fairies have been sooooo good to me recently that I've lost track of who sent what! :o Andrew is just about to grow out of my <5lb stuff :j and into (mainly Asda) Tiny Baby <6lb clothes, so I can move down a drawer in the chest! If anybody hears of someone needing teensy-weensy <5lb clothes in the next few months, can you let me know so that I can re-gift? :money:

    morning/afternoon.

    i came back a few times last might to catch up, just didnt feel like posting.
    so, Weezl; i wasnt ignoring you hun, thanks for asking about me. My money problems just seem to be dragging me down at the minte. everytime i think i get somewhere, everything seems to take 3 steps back. its katies birthday next week, and then my sisters birthday in dec then the dreaded christmas, and then my mums birthday 3 days after! meanwhile, struggling to live day by day payng bills, rent, elcetric, oil.....i guess we will get by somehow!? I know that we will surivive christmas with the help of MSE, im just fretting!

    there musta been something in the air last night - me and OH had a bit of a falling out too. well, actually, i fell out with him and became very withdrawn and he didnt know why, and I didnt tell him! it was because i was feeling angry at him for not getting off his bum and getting a job; this is main reason why we are having money problems - a year on. he is a plumber, and will not take any other job on as he got it rough through his apprenticeship. but no amount of persuading can change his mind that SOME type of job is better than none!?
    However, he has a few jobs coming up through friends that will get us some dosh over the next couple weeks.

    hehe, Katie just arrived into the living room with her baby in her pram (upside down!!), my sunglasses on her head, her little bag over handle of the pram, my umbrella over her wrist and on her phone saying "hiya daddy. love you. byeeee!" so pleased i have her to cheer me up! :)

    Feelie: wow on your megapost! How on earth do you rememeber so much!!??
    Weezl: hope you had a lovely romantic anniversary night!
    SM: hope your friend gets in touch soon!
    Mooki: Thats real unfortunate about lil Leila, hope she doesnt scar, and i would be exactly same as you checking up every chance i got!!
    MM: enjoy your relaxatino day!

    i cantremember what else i anted to respond to.
    Am gonna get myself outta the house today; will go visit mum. gotta go get my hair brushed and my slap on make myself look presentable! :)
    Hope everyone has a lovely day. xx
    Carla-Farla!! :)

    Mummy to Katie (27.11.07) and Christopher (05.08.09) ♥♥

    Grrrrrrr, why is the meet this Monday and not next Monday:( I will get along to one eventually!

    I have just looked out the back and there are 3 dead mice on the patio.....The cat was obviously busy last night. He normally just brings us 1 every couple of days. I only looked out because I was thinking of cleaning the windows;)

    Becles - glad you had a good night, sounds like it was great to see:)

    Weezl - Hope you had a nice anniversary meal:)

    Bruno - I don't like you;) I mean, I am jealous that you live near Brighton:p When we were there the kids schools took part in the festival of light parade it was fantastic:)

    I am on a mad tidying/cleaning mission today ready for ds1's birthday tea party tomorrow...I have done the living room and most of the dining room, just need to do the hallway and kitchen. I will check around upstairs but to be honest it never really gets too messy upstairs, probably just a few bits to move and hoover(well apart from the boys room, but I will just shut their door:o)

    I have already had a shouting match with dh this morning, I am getting so fed up with his stoppy moods, and he has the cheek to blame it all on me:mad: anyway, going to try and ignore him for the rest of the day......oooh also need to pack the little case for ds1 going away on Monday:(

    Any news searching?

    We just walked to the shop to buy food, and have potatoes baking in the oven. It was very windy and cold out, so Toby wore his hat:

    Toby is sat on the floor playing with a bottle of water.

    Carla - I just read back and I missed you! Please know it wasn't intentional, I knew I meant to say something! Sorry you were feeling Meh yesterday, I hope today is a better day. Have a nice time out visiting :)

    Morning all :o
    .. Its morning. How quickly does yours calm down? :o It's still quiet here :o I left Andrew downstairs with him overnight, figured they still deserve time together, it's not fair to let our row affect that

    He's at work. Didn't come to bed last night, nor sleep on the sofa, must have stayed in the comp room. As I expected, he txt me this morning. We don't have many falling outs (and last night is the first shouting match we've had in three years - thankful for deaf neighbours! :o), but when we do, we don't speak unless we have to or usually "Do you WANT a cup of tea?" (still nice but not nice with it, iyswim!), and then he txts me mid-morning while at work, as if he's testing the waters for when he comes home.. The txt was asking if we slept well and if Rhys slept through and gave me some rest. Also mentioned how Rhys was sleeping so he must have been in to check on us in the night :confused:

    Am tempted to be out when he gets home (or not be where he expects me to be) but to be honest I can't be bothered with getting dressed yet :p Am sure it'll all be fine by tonight. He'll probably come in all sweetness and light, making me lunch, doing the washing up and telling Rhys he's going to look after him this afternoon to "give mummy some peace" :cool: (it's not peace from Rhys I want!)

    Anyway.. on to brighter things.. (kinda!)

    *hugs* to Mooki and Feelie :(

    Feelie, that post was awesome :D Will you be around and keeping up to date next week? You've just volunteered yourself for doing the catch up while I'm away :p
