    Aless i know, i can't fnd part of the item which is why i didn't cancel it sooner:rotfl: Really need to hunt for it now, i know it's in DS's room somewhere but all his stuff is still packed from decorating. I thought he was gonna send me a postal order whcih would have been easier if not crossed.

    Just let the dog in the flooded garden to do her deed and didn't shut the door properly, and she just jumped up onto the couch with me and DS, i didn't even realise til i noticed the blanket is now muddy and brown :eek:

    I don't know why i feel i should iron stuff really lol, i don't iron anything at all - only DS school jumpers if the dryer hasn't made them nice enough... I'll probvs just leave it tbh, nother of my bright ideas :rotfl:

    I can't stand other people's kids, i can't talk to little kids without feeling like a total idiot so i just don't :rotfl: I'm ok when they're about 6 lol. Think i'm just a social phobe in general though cos i hate taking DS to parties and making small talk with parents, i never know what to say :confused: All his friends mums talk to each other in the playground whereas i'd rather pretend i'm in a rush or didn't see them lol. I'm such a loser :p

    gas 4 fold....3 weeks has cost me £120 in gas on the prepaid card, YIKES and she is still blimming cold. Lol, i really am not having a good time at all. :(
    !!!!!! get her to buy a jumper or a cardigan on her next shopping trip and if she's still cold do what i do to OH put the heating on till it heats the radiators up then turn it off lol
    I think i could run my heating 24hrs and i wouldn't use 120 in 3 weeks whats she doing running the hot water to heat her feet to keep warm at night. Think you need to have a word before your another 160 in the 4 weeks left can you afford it, no point leaving yourself skint just trying to keep her happy and failing by the sounds of it.

    Mum fell out with my aunt through the heating too, aunt lives in a new house that's pretty small, Mum has a Victorian house thats cold and drafty even in the summer. All she ever said was i'm cold put the heat on even when it was, i even gave her a heater for her room that kept reaching it's maximum temperature and clicking off, cue her down stairs complaining it was broke, erm NO you just have your room like an oven you @@@@@. god only knows what mums bills will be like.

    Well see that's what we usually do, stick another layer on, the only one who has the heating on at night usually is DD as she doesn't know how to stay under the covers, lol. We usually do 3hrs morning and 2 or 3 night and in winter this costs £80 max usually. Granted the house gets very cold very quick but we can usually cope. Thank god i am having a May babe again, lol! I think the problem is her flat back home is small and very warm, wheras our is a slim 3 story victorian house that is always cold, with high ceilings and all. That along with teh very cold spat we have had - the sea winds are horrid :eek:.

    She generally just doesn't notice the cost - that was until i actually freaked when i realised OH had ran out of money and i was fuming - looking at his statement its all gone on day trips, gas and food so it's not him spending excessively at all. She has now started to put in for food shopping and even offered to buy this weeks whole weeks food lot herself. But she did make me laugh when the £40 food shop to last just a couple of days, she said ''i'll get it'' and pulled out a handfull of change. She really doesn't realise everything costs so so so much more than back in China. Whenver we tell her the cost and she works out the exchange amount she gasps in horror, bless her. Everything is costing a bomb as in winter i usually just stay home or local if i'm not working.

    Grrrrr....i am really looking forward to my brother getting him bum over here and doing some of the day trips with her so i can stay home and relax :p

    I'd tell your OH he needs to have a chat with them about manners when they come in YOUR house or they won't be welcome anymore.

    That's not good at all!!!

    Hiya :D

    4d scan in 7 days! :D
    Kindof - I see on fb yours went well, im hoping to see some pics later :D

    Beenie - Your little light is still on! Does that mean your not being productive? :p

    MGEB - Hello! Been worried about you! lol. Glad all is ok with you :D

    Nikkit - What a little cow. Sorry, but thats just rude, especially when its not even her house!

    I couldn't sleep at all last night, didn't help that me and OH spent until 1:30am talking about when we first got together and how much we liked each other but didn't say anything in fear of rejection lol.

    Didn't come on y'day, i was lurking via my ipod though lol. Many of you that are on my fb may of seen my rants about waiting for the mw.
    Those that dont know, she made an appointment with me for the 4th Dec, but didn't tell me a time. So i left a message for her at 11am asking what time it is, and got no reply. So i called her again at 1:30pm and she answered and said "Your probably wondering where i am?" I said yes, and she said that another mw was covering her shift and was meant to see me this morning! And if she doesn't show by 5pm, then she'll come round and do my appointment.
    That p!ssed me off as i had a fair bit to do that involved leaving the house and now i couldn't.
    At about 3.30/4pm, the doorbell rings, it took me about 30 seconds to get to the door (I ran :rotfl:) by the time i got there no one was there :mad:
    So i went outside and looked up and down but couldn't see anyone who looked like a midwife lol.

    At 5pm, my mw shows up saying that the mw did show up earlier but no one was in. I was in all effing day! So my whole day was wasted!

    She didn't even do my bloods, which was the whole reason for the appointment. And told me to tell me gp to do them at my 31 wk app.
    If he says no, she will do them at my 34wk app.

    She couldn't tell me anything about anti natal classes, just to call hospital at 32wks. And didn't even know when the 3rd trimester started.

    (is it 27 or 29 weeks anyone? :D My books all say 27 but i've read online its 29 so im confused)

    Sorry for the rant. :o
    In other baby news, the baby is sooo active all the time, i swear she'll break through the sack one day with her kicks lol x
