    the debt i have is slow built up stuff which started when i was on smp for my ectopic and i just never recovered ... what a !!!!!! though im a strong believer in karma x

    Karma really will bite him on the @ss one day. Ive never had a credit card nor overdraft then met ex and stupidly got a loan in my name for his car as I was being offered far better rates. We had bought a house together so didnt expect to be lumbered with the car loan but we split and I was. I see it as I had to go through that to meet current wonderful OH and have my gorgeous princess Isla :o
    Wooooooooooooooooooooh! I go through Longsight on the way to the hospital - yes, Andrew was born at St Marys about a month after the new hospital opened, and that's where his regular consultant appointments are too. You realise that we're actually obscenely close and should get together occasionally?

    Yay :j:j That'd be fab Tigs. If you've ever been in Asda Longsight or past it your at my house :D Feel free to pm me if you want to meet up sometime, you can try Andrew in my mei tai or stretchy sling too if you like.

    Hiyah :wave:

    How's everyone? I love flex time, finished at 3.30 and was home for 4.30 :D left early today because of the Manchester derby, no way was I getting stuck in that traffic.

    Does anyone know a cure for getting rid of a stiff neck/shoulder? Must've slept funny last night and it blimmin hurts. Took some strong pain killers but felt woozy?

    OH left earlier because of the derby, Ive been winding him up that City will win anyway :rotfl: I always find a hot shower directed right at my neck/ shoulders when their stiff really helps.

    MOTM - the tshirt is off my brother and appeals to his sense of humour. He's bought her one which says 'does my nappy look big in this vest?' because I use cloth nappies so she looks like a fatty. Sorry to hear things have gone wrong again at the school, it had seemed like you were getting somewhere with them.

    SS - I think that was a troll xx
    I'm actually a regular poster on here but didn't want to admit to attempted suicide and self harm on a public forum which could be read by anyone. It hadn't occurred to me that anyone would think I was a troll but on reflection I can see it is quite an obvious conclusion to draw. If you want to know who I really am, you are welcome to PM me and I'll PM you back from my regular account.

    I love Karma, good and bad. Your good Karma was getting your OH and Isla :cool:

    Always good to have a sense of humour. Think that's where I went wrong with the mothers of my girls - rude slogans and teaching my girls naughty things :rotfl:

    The school will work out. It may take a while, but it will and hopefully Karma will get them ;)

    If you feel comfortable anonymous, not a problem surely?

    Went in once, didn't find it particularly "nice" (or am I a snob? I'm used to the huge Asda at Eastlands) :rotfl: But I drive past every fortnight to go to the hospital, that's my chosen route except at rush-hour. Will PM you.

    How about the list of names/babies goes at the beginning of the thread ie: 2nd post after the BG's post, and is kept upto date by PM. Like in the grocery threads on the os board. ??
    I think that sounds like a really good idea - that way it isn't repeated a million times throughout the thread and people can find it for reference really easily.

    :eek: Still snowy? Is that all over the country? It's warmer here now. Not warm, but not that cold either.
    It'll be snowy till March or so. I used to be able to see the Alps from my apartment, but then I moved into the city centre and now all I see from my bedroom window is the tree with the berries on in our courtyard.

    Hopefully the governor will be able to speak sense in a way they'll hear and understand.
    Hey, if I put Andrew's comfort blankie over his head, he goes quiet ... and not because he's being smothered either ... Am I a bad mommy?
    No, you're a genius!

    BeenThereDoneThat - it's totally understandable that you'd want to remain anonymous, and I'm sorry I gave the impression that I thought self-harm is always simple attention-seeking behaviour. Sometimes - almost every time I go to work - I wish it was. But we have a three-month waiting list for people whose self-harm is genuinely dangerous.
