I have escaped back in time to the late 80's today and gone roller skating.

I'm so jealous! We had a brilliant roller rink here when I was a teenager. When L got roller blades last year for her birthday or christmas, I suggested I could get some to skate with her...and she was horrified!

I have had to make a very hard decision this week. I knew deep down I would have to do it and DH said it needed doing. However, because I found it tough I completely messed up how I did it, making it all much harder but only because I wasn't sure how to. However, the outcome was the right one, and I feel relieved, the question is do I go back and try and smooth how it happened or as it's over just leave it and move on.

You could try smoothing if you want to/if you think it's worth it. And if smoothing isn't possible atm, i'd let it be know that you are there and available for future smoothing.
I'm sure you didn't mess up - you did what you thought was needed at the time.


Tia Well done on binning the bottles. My baby girl will have one until she's 26.
She's down to just the bedtime bottle now, and will drink milk from a cup at other times.


Baby girl has gone down tonight at 7pm for the 2nd night running. Straight into her bed with bottle while I sit on my bed and asleep within 10 minutes. I think no day sleep is the answer.

MDW Hope you manage to speak to the union people tomorrow. No job is worth it if it's making you feel rubbish and treating you like poop.

I hope everyone else is ok.

Sorry, should have explained (but dinner was ready), she has refused bottles for the past couple of weeks. I think it's because they only use cups at nursery. They actually had mould round the rims because they had been sitting so long (yucky! I swear I washed them properly).

My head hurts, know that way when the scalp hurts? Was fine till I had my dinner.

Oh that's another rant. Decorator is coming tomorrow, he was supposed to rip stair carpet up and wash down all gloss work. Did he do it? Did he balls! So after doing football, then roller rink i've ripped carpet up on 2 landings and 2 sets of stairs, cleaned all skirtings and spindle banisters on above and cleaned 8 doors and their casings. Plus teas, bath and bedtime, whilst the lazy get sat on his arris ALL day. And this is all because i wouldn't go to burger king, because i didn't have time, so i am therefore deemed to be pathetic all over facebook :mad: And he has been branded a t0sser by someone :whistle:

This makes me so :mad::mad::mad::mad:

One day WM please tell me his redeeming features, because at the moment I want to come up there and kick him out for you :mad::mad::mad:

We are down to 1 bottle a day (most days, unless mum is being a soft touch ) and no matter how much I scrub and sterilise Benjamins bottles (we have 6) if I leave them for more than a couple of days they start to get little black spots on them...

I am considering throwing out 4 and keeping 2....with a view to throwing them out with the dummies at Christmas!!

Well sun is forecast for tomorrow. I for one am off out to make the most of it, anyone else?

Me too, when are some guys going to get with the programme and see us as their equals?

How do you stay calm?

Interesting evening here, my new sofas come on Tuesday and I'm giving my friend my old sofa, he came and collected it tonight and carried it home with his boyfriend, took him 20 minutes to walk :rotfl: then I spent half an hour scrubbing the carpet trying to hide the filthy outline where you could blatantly see where it had been! But ran out of carpet cleaner so will need to pick some up tomorrow. So I am sat on a armchair tonight, and actually it is much more comfy than the sofa, I should have just sat here in the first place, I'd have moaned a lot less and probably not been so desperate for a new one!

I've also bought a giant cupcake mould on ebay :drool: and eaten the last of the Dr Pepper cupcakes. That makes me sad. But the knowledge that I could soon make a giant one lessens the sadness somewhat :drool:

got-it-spend-it

:rotfl: at the sofa Em.

WM- I think you have a lot of patience as I would have been at the end of my tether a long time ago. I am very :mad:on your behalf.

I need my bed now, fingers crossed for a good night all round.

Not worth the porridge :cool: or should that be bird :cool:



Seriously though, if my husband (who doesn't understand FB) slated me on FB I would be showing him the door - public disrespect is a vile thing.
