    I agree with the sisterhood, Birdie! Boys aren't renowned for the imagination skills when it comes to dresses, so just ignore him and find a dress that you love and that you feel happy in. The girls are right; he'll be blown away on the day :)

    Zig, congratulations on baby Quinn! Glad all is well and hope you get to see him soon.

    We are pretty close, we used to be at each others necks growing up but now we have more in common so do a lot together. She still bullys me though, but then she's the big sis so she's allowed to!
  • Exactly, just ignore him. My OH always says I dress like a middle-aged woman but I don't care I like librarian chic! :D:o

    Love that necklace Cinny!!

    Hehe, just like me! I've got some thin stretchy type turtle neck 'jumpers' that I wear under wrap-over cardigans some times and whenever I do he calls me Howard (from The Big Bang Theory) I don't care though, I'm warm!
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

  • Haha - is Howard the little one? I was watching a bit of that last night, I don't find it very funny :( Ah I do have a penchant for cardigans :)

    Yeah, he always wears brightly coloured turtle necks under everything. There's one episode where he's wearing a t-shirt with his turtle neck underneath and he takes the t-shirt off and all he's got under it is the neck bit, hehe!

    I love Big Bang, it's bad that I get the Star Trek jokes thanks to OH's tutelage!

    Thanks for the Tea Tip Tete! Just ordered some, I'm hoping I can actually stomach it because I know how good fruit/herbal teas are you me!

    I didn't used to like Big Bang but I watched it the week I was off sick and love it now. Kind of love Sheldon.

    My OH says I dress like an old lady, but I'm not aware of any old ladies that wear skinny jeans, uggs & vest tops! I think it's cause I have so many cardigans!

    Congratulations Zig! Hope both mother and baby are healthy and you get to see them soon! I'd be all excited too.

    Feeling very proud of myself! My best friend lost her job at the end of Nov last year and has no luck finding anything. Well i've been asking around for her and today i got her a job! :D
    My next mission is to help OH set himself up as Self Employed and then i will continue to focus on getting me a job.

    I have one of my nieces tonight, and got all three of them for the rest of the weekend, but still intend on sorting out my money and getting things paid/sorted. Feeling positive :j
