Evening all..

I came in from work thirsty and was drinking wine at 5.40pm.. is that bad? :cool: (coldest thing in the fridge! :whistle:) *ahem* Anyway...

Had a quick catch up..
Welcome jolene!
I agree with Glam about bettering yourself at work... and being a nosy bint! That's how I did it
Happy birthday lexi. Any recent pics, Sparkle?
Special hugs for always xx
:T for MDW giving blood.. Rhys had about six transfusions but I can't give blood (they don't want mine ) so I have to applaud those who do instead


Rhys has been fine at Mum's all day. He woke up about 15 mins before I left for work so I got chance for a cuddle, yay! Mum came here because the play specialist was coming round. Rhys almost fell asleep mid play session when she was here and completely zonked out when she left - so Mum did the washing up for entertainment! :rotfl:

Work was a bit boring.. Was clearing out the backlog of stuff and filing for most of the day. All the interesting jobs didn't actually take very long at all :cool: I went for a walk in the end to see my new boss. My office has been cleared and looks fab, total blank canvas. Spoke to one of the guys I'll be working for/with and I'm going to one of his meetings tomorrow to meet some of the others (contractors, not guys we employ so I don't know them already) and to get used to their terminology. He sent me the minutes of the last meeting and it's like a whole new language :cool:

Lots to do tonight but we had early tea so at least that's out the way Time for more wine, methinks..

:TFrom me to MDW too :T. I've always given blood three times a year since I was 17, except when I was TTC, pregnant and now since I have had H. I will be going back when he is 9 months though, to help out people just like Rhysy.


Thanks for that link Becles, it made me :rotfl:.

Had yet another lovely day today. I feel like I'm making a habit of it. We went to the zoo with my step sister, two friends and all their littlies. The weather was divine and I am a little bit sunburnt. We walked miles and took a picnic so it was very :money: and also good for the diet.

I always vote- I know it's a cliche but women died so we can vote and that means a lot to me. FWIW I definitely don't see this as a two horse race- in fact as the chance of a hung parliament is a very real one, it's even more than a three horse race really.

I always vote.

Had a nice day out with Fitz and Holly. Couldn't beleive it started snowing when I got home!!! While the sun was out!

Look at Kierens new trick

Pink_Princess_1

Im ashamed to say I know absolutely nothing about politics:o so I went on one of the survey websites recommended by beanie - my result was 25% for each party so none the wiser really! OH is currently trying to give me a lesson but its so boring iv switched off :cool:

I've always voted in the general elections (all two times since I was 16/18, I think!) but not in the local ones since I moved in with OH. Need to find out where the polling station is.. I've got my card so I know the address, just not actually how to get there! :cool:

Lovely pic csh.. is that K's "what, of course I can do it?" look? We get that a lot *rolleyes*
PS, was it def snow and not cherry tree blossom?

Jakesmummy

Evening all, hope everyones well?

a third:T to mdw from me too for giving blood, i needed 2 transfusions after having jake, i remember looking at the blood feeling v grateful that somebody went to the trouble of donating and poss saved my life! i would donate myself but now that ive had a transfusion im not allowed:( and i hate needles with a passion but still wish i could give something back.

im gonna vote as well but not decided for definite who for.. think il have a read tonight! saying that a leaflet came through today from one of the partys, it wasnt exactly convincing!!

OlipopsMummy

Hi just thought i would pop in and introduce myself! been lurking around and post on the pregnancy thread occasionally but you all seem so nice i want to join in!! Im 6 months pregnant with no2 atm and have a gorgeous little boy Oliver who is 19 months.

Glamazon

Welcome Olipops!

I've not been able to give blood for ages - had 2 operations a year apart, then the next time I went to go I was pregnant. Will start again soon.

Aw csh - what a big boy! He's really developing quickly - bless him.

aless02

yay for blood! I also used to donate regularly and did plasma (i think u call it platelets here) twice a week my last yr of uni!! I miss doing and hate that now have to wait 9 months

Just tried on about 20 things and only just barely managed to pull together something vaguely suitable for my interview tomorrow (!!). It was really depressing and even though i did some cardio today, it really hit home again how much work i need to do to fit into my work clothes again

tarajayne

Hellooo, back again. I'll have to look up about giving blood, think it's when they're a year old??? I wanna get my next badge!

Politics, hmmm, not sure yet, just not Conservative, no flippen way!!!

Edit. hi Olipops! XXX

money_maker_3

I cant give blood because I have had 4 transfusions, and am ever so grateful to everyone who does You all helped save my life xx
