    SS- any update on hubby's ultrasound?
    They've not found anything but want to observe him on nil by mouth for 48 hours and do a CT scan. This after giving him a laxative (you know, because diawoowoo wasn't enough) and refusing food since yesterday. He's angry and miserable and I don't blame him.
    I went for job interview yesterday and they phoned today offering me the job!

    Its less than an yr old you muppet so I wasn't accepting that! Hence after a few words with retailer I have a new one being delivered on Friday. Can someone remind me to take the door off on thursday to make it easier!!

    My Nan is in hospital unwell.

    Congratulations - I hope you can get childcare sorted :)

    What a muppet re sofa, well done for getting it replaced.

    Sorry to hear about your grandmother. I wish I knew a magic thing to say.

    3, Do you or do you ever plan to....hit your child, stub out cigarettes on him, throw a hot iron at him, lock him in his room for days on end throwing him only water and bread to eat, kick him out of the family home while young, take him and dump him on your parents to look after forever, take heroin/cocaine,or other drugs around him, feed him only chippy chips and then only 1 bag to share between him and a few other kids because you want the money for alcohol/drugs, get him to go into town and steal his own clothes from the age of 6 again because drinking/drugs come first, ......

    I only plan on doing these things every now and again Mel :D I figure that's ok?





    no?

    Baby napping, he will now until about 12.30/1pm but nee to wake him at 12.30 today so he has time for lunch before we set off to hospital for 1.30pm!

    MFD - Yay for hubby coming home today:)

    SM - Keep forgetting to reply, I am not nr MH unfortunately...miles away in fact as I am nr Chester (think cheshire oaks/coliseum shopping outlets) I would have loved to have met up with you otherwise..

    Weezl - So sorry to hear about work, I really hope your manager can do something about it, I have no idea how you would fir 4wks work in when you are getting so close to your due date, do you have any holidays left to use up that could maybe account for some of it!!

    edit - weezl i am fine thank you for asking...bit nervous about later tho.

    Mel: I thought your post about breastfeeding was really good - whilst I do think that breastfeeding is important, you managed to illustrate very eloquently that it is not the most important aspect of parenting. I can see how the enthusiasm some of us have can make people feel like it is much more significant than it is.

    Do you have a Bad Twin too? Wouldn't that make you triplets? Or are you the Bad Twin? Or have I completely missed something and just made no sense at all?

    Yes - love to. We've got no plans, Gymbabes closes for the holidays (doesn't it?).

    And i'm going over to Warrington Friday if you want to come and meet Sami & Glam. (They're quite normal, honest :p - seriously they & their boys are lovely).

    Good luck with the scan - find out the flavour, I can't wait. :D
