Hi Krystal, i read your orginal post last night about posts being acknowledged. After everything that happened the other day, I'm now not sure what to do about thanking posts? Sometimes I log on and read 5/6 pages and don't thank any, now I feel like I need to thank every post I read in case people feel ignored!! ( Not meaning you btw, its just that you've mentioned it!). When I'm on I thank every post when I'm actively reading so I know where I'm up to but tbh I get bored of thanking.
I was thinking that now I'll only thank the posts that make me laugh, are directed to me, answer a question thats useful to me or has cute baby photos.
I don't have facebook so can only see photos posted on the board, I'm missing lots of cute pics :mad:
Couldn't have put it better myself, I read what NMS wrote and not being thanked for fairy post would have made me angry to. But you don't thank everyone via the button if it's not relevant to you and sometimes there can be several conversations going on at the same time and I will thank the people I'm chatting to. I'm not going to feel guilty for not catching up as it's busy at home and it's just not possible, but that doesn't mean I don't care what is happening to others. I'm often on and just read but don't post as I have nothing to say or being a mere mortal I don't agree with what's being said, so I shut up! I can be completely up to date for a week then go 3 days without catching up at all, I wouldn't like to think anyone feels ignored and I know that when I've asked a question and it hasn't been answered I JUST SHOUT and someone notices, so thanks girls! XXXToo many children, too little time!!!0 -
I sometimes never thank a post because I forget it's there! Plus sometimes Im just too lazy to scroll up a page.
Charger still not here. If it's not here by Friday I'll be putting a complaint thingymabob in with amazon. SICK OF THIS!!!!! Doesn't take almost 2 weeks to get a delivery especially if it's supposedly FIRST CLASS!
Keira has become so annoying at nights, waking up about 5 times in the night demanding her shoes in bed, or more juice etc. Grrrrr. No wonder I cant get her dry at nights, she drinks a mammoth amount during the night.
I discovered what the vomit smell in her bedroom was, a cup of chocolate milk, that had been put inside her toy cooker. No wonder I couldn't see it, but OMG I almost added to the vomit stink, and to make matters worse, the kitchen bin honks of it and some pleb has blocked the chute with Xmas cardboard tubes and what smells like dirty nappies. GADDDDS
Honestly, the chutes arent that big, HAVE SOME SENSE PEOPLE!!!
I woke up this morning to banana all over the floor. That flippin cat had decided to eat one, puncture marks all over the banana, and chunks everywhere. I swear to blog he is mental.0 -

You know the labour will be worth it in the end, and that fergus will eventually go back to sleeping, and you wont have to worry about work again for a little while soon, and your ILs are not as important as your OH and your kid(s) and you are a wonderful person
I know hormones are rife at the minute and you feel like it is all on top of you, but there is an end to it all, and the struggle is just getting to htat end
What she said - it was spot oni've listed the jumperoo as pick up only but have had a large box donated so want to change it so i can get more :money:, plus the currently winning bidder has no feedback so i'm not very happy about it!! i cant find a way to add postage on, so shall i cancel it and relist it with postage? i'm thinking i'll get more plus i'll save having to wait in for a weirdo to come and get it, its at £26 at the moment with 10 hours to go but has 31 watchers?
If you do you'll need to cancel the bid first otherwise that person wins the item
I think ebay has some rules about not cancelling in the last 12 hours but you'd have to look up the Help section to see what they are
Just wrangling my way through the multiple post office trips I'm going to have to make today - seven small parcels, three envelopes and one GIGANTOBOX for my nephews, now mostly filled with chocolate and sugar.

Trying to have some food to regulate my blood sugar in case that's having a bad effect on my mood. Have also put fergie in his doorway bouncer again cos I was a bit fed up of him on my lap!:o
SS it's tricky though to not be able to send books and to have to factor in size and weight for posting... Choccie is probably all that's left!

His wife is pg... I was the only one that knew about it until last night...
This is how the whole 'snogging mfd' conversation started :rotfl:
lol at snogging MFD that was a funny convo!
*makes mental note that if/when I meet Sugar I need to kiss the 'wrong' cheek first!*
Weezl - aww you made me chuckle a bitIf it helps; although my 2nd labour produced a baby 1.5lbs bigger than the first:eek: and required more pain relief I actually think it was 'easier' as I understood the signals etc and listened to what my body wanted (as hippy trippy as that sounds!) of cource its scary to think about doing it again but I definitely want to!
That statement is most pertinent considering I has been in tears 3 times and only had 3 hours sleep in the last 24hrs!!0 -
And as I do have a little experience on this subject Weezl, labour is so different each time, He'll probably pop out!
:D Hope you don't mind me saying so.X
What's up Sami?Too many children, too little time!!!0 -
Woohoo, we're getting middle rate DLA
Letter to follow on how much exactly..
ETA: Still opening post... Woohoo again, got a letter from the neurosurgeon we saw in Notts who has confirmed everything as we interpretted it, that there's nothing wrong right now (:D) and what to do if he starts getting symptoms of problems etc etc.
Best stop there with the post opening.. one is a package addressed to OH and I know he's been ordering presents0
