    you're only human its natural to lose it every now and again ... sounds like you need some down time for just yourself even if its just a cuppa in silence ... helps you put your finger on whats really bugging x

    CAFC, I've been feeling that for a while too, it's why I'm so often edgy and angry. The counselling has helped a lot, as has realising that it's ok to take some time just for me - if Husband has the baby it's ok for me not to clean the bathroom/organise things.

    Hugs.

    I've been poking about on dealextreme.com for an hour and have filled my basket with things that everyone I buy birthday gifts for will love - so I can completely sort 2011's birthday gifts for £64ish. Am I being ridiculous?

    Hammy, is that a new profile picture? It's beautiful.

    It is, thank you!
    Hammy- I love the new avvy. That's a great hat!

    Actually, I must confess, we saw the hat whilst browsing GAP in Cheltenham - I tried it on D , took a cheeky photo and put it back on the shelf - it was £18!!!!!! :rotfl:
    Lots of lovely photos recently :grinheart - Hammy I especially like your avvy pic

    Thank you! It's nice to see you posting :D

    SM - thank you for organising today :T. It was lovely to meet you all. If I get the chance tonight I will post a pic or two but it might have to be 2moro - I am shattered after D's lack of sleep last night :o

    CAFC - hugs

    Caz, I hope you enjoy your new pram :D

    Choppy - I hope C is feeling better now
    The one thing children wear out faster than shoes is parents ;):o:D

    Glad you all had a good time at the meet. x

    CAFC I know it is easier said than done but can OH have Landen for a few hours, you are doing incredibly well to recognise that it is lack of sleep making it difficult to cope with everything.:grouphug:.
