Hubby's got a job interview... On Caitlyn's birthday! It's the first interview out of about 40 job applications... It's a way away but the actual job is based more local... I might go with him and make a day trip out of it...

Mfd, did you see my reply earlier?

I did....I just needed to check out the website before I said 'how about shouting me lunch on 19th?'

Yay - go Dave!! Good luck from MFD Towers. I don't actually know what he does...other than he travels all the way to Dudley to do whatever it is!!!

hi glam - hope you are feeling okay. i asked anyone with your number to text you my love when i saw you were in hosp.

still having trouble with LO's sleep. what about you and jack? LO slept for two hours today (she never does that). she was having her bottle tonight, but got a cough and then ended up being sick all over both of us. of course, it then took ages to go down. resulting in both of us crying. i'm not at my strongest at the minute (bad work day) so it didn't take much to get the water works happening on my side.

I was able to browse from my phone but I can't post for some reason!
I did see it - thanks

Aw big hugs. Jack was sick all over OH when they were playing and I said 'Oh, no Jackie went bleurgh' - to which we had full on belly laughs at the word Bleurgh. I was trying so hard not to laugh cos it hurts so much but it was so funny watching him!

Well, we seem to have gone backwards even more at night - he was quite bad when I was in hospital but last night I tried to put him down at 7pm and he was having none of it so I brought him in with us and we just all chilled out in our room. He fell asleep around 9.30pm, popped him in his cot and he woke up at 6am :j

Today we went with the let him fall asleep as and when rather than each time he rubbed his eyes - so he fell asleep playing in his cot and then again in the car this afternoon. At bedtime he fell asleep in my arms then went straight in his cot but he's just woken up!! Agghhhhhh

To sell our bodies and our children on the Manchester streets

oh no, it's no good when laughing hurts.

now that LO is on cow's milk, when she's sick, it's not pretty

i wonder how you are getting on with jack, at like 3am when i am woken up. i have been letting LO come into bed around 3am which i know still needs to be sorted out.

sorry he's just woken up. hope he settles better. sounds like he did well going off when he wanted, but you just wanted it to happen time after time dont you.

Krystaltips

That's OK then Mfd... As long as I get a good price...

AF, if you both get some sleep when she comes into bed with you then it's sorted enough for now

Well OH just went up and he had stopped on his own so I put his lullabies on and now he's snoring.

Going here on 19th

Booboo, the joolz is heavy and although they show it folding down really small, it ends up just folding in half and getting chucked in my boot to take up the space of a seat. You can fold it down smaller but I've found that due to it being heavy to lift in and out, it generally gets chucked in and out. So maybe not so good if you have an awkward boot and have to lift it in and out.

But, I do love it big much

Hey chick - is it a change of direction or just another firm that you need? I have a good format for an interesting CV if you want me to email it? As an employer it is always nice to see a CV which is not a run-of-the-mill-pulled-it-off-a-website standard blurb. I get very bored of looking at the same thing over and over

i'd love that MFD - i get what you are saying about the 'run of the mill' type CVs as i have seen those myself when we were looking for someone to help me and then my maternity cover.

i am thinking a complete change of direction. i just cant see myself working in a different area of law to what i do now, and therefore the opportunities are limited. we have our new head of department and i'm just not happy with how things are going and how i am treated. been through all of it when i first started working.

you have my email, and i'd be grateful

(oh, i promise i didn't move my b'day either )

Dunno what to say to help, but just wanted to send *hugs* and let you know I'm here if you need anything. Take care xx

Cooking: tend to cook from scratch here and I'm another fan of quick and easy meals. I've got two books - Gary Rhodes 30 minute meals (or something like that) and Faye's Family Food. There's masses in there that you can cook quickly and easily while keeping an eye on dogs and children
