Tia sounds like you need some jaffa cakes.

I had a glass of wine at lunch (not to mention lots of lunch) and could really have done with a nap, but never mind. We are working on colours instead. Whenver I ask what colour something is she says blue, and if I shake my head she tries pink instead. I don't think she quite understands yet

Would be a nice big payout if I did't have extortionate excess Maybe my daddy will buy me a new netbook for Xmas then, and I can use the money I get back to replace my make up and clothes. Just stings I'm still paying off that netbook, bloody littlewoods and their tempting offers and deals and cashback

Where is that police! Im wanting to go lie down and they said they'd be here at 1. I'm going to bill them for my time I could of been cleaning up you see

Instead of asking what colour something is, try asking for things of that colour... e.g instead of "what colour is the pencil?" try "Pass Mummy the green pencil" she might understand more than you think

I've had apple danish... All is well with the world

Jaffa cakes and sweets, anything with sugar or carbs will send my psychotic. I cleaned. And cleaned. The walls looked dirty so I had to scrub things till I almost passed out. Now I feel okay. Too tired to care now

Haircut needed here too. Infact when I took Joe for his cut today I booked myself in for next saturday. Hairdresser that comes to the house is very poorley with shingles, so obviously can't do it. And i dyed mine in the week and I hate it. My own fault didn't have the one I usually get in Asda so bought another because i'm far too lazy to go to another shop to look for it. This is very dark. I am/was a natural red head until the grey took over. I want to stay a red head but the dyes never come out the right colour. I want Bree Van Der Camp Red!

I worry about Mel does anyone speak to her outside the PT, who can confirm she's OK? It's been weeks since she posted, and the last post she made wasn't a goodbye-type post either...

I'm wondering where Becles is allowed to get her nipples out.... lol!

Update: it's naughty to get your nipples out in Homebase, but I still don't know where you are allowed to get them out.

I've no idea why she said Homebase as I've never got my nipples out in there before.

I have no intention of ever not having long hair. I like having long hair and I'm too lazy for all the work of having short hair.

Same here!

I had long hair until I was about 13, when I went through a rebel phase and had it cut really short. Hated it and started growing it back immediately.

Got it mid back level and had kept getting it permed and it was in awful condition when I was about 17, so I got it cut back to a chin length bob to get rid of the mess. Grew it back and have had long hair since.

I've started to notice grey hairs. I'm fair and they're pure white rather than grey though.

My Mam had a friend and she had beatiful straight white hair that sort of shimmered like silk does. I'd love it if my hair went like hers.

Me too, I hope they use an infected needle and die of Aids, all alone with no friends at Xmas.

Here's a tool to generate more insults

Sorry to hear you've had a crap day. I'd be gutted if someone stole my pics of the bairns.

I was thinking of Kiera earlier when we were in Asda and Charlotte insisted on buying these slippers. I bet she'd love them!

Bruno I don't think she is ok fb is she? Mel we are talking about you, helloooo!!!! (That normally does the trick )

You lot are making me paranoid with your grey hairs. I'll be in the bathroom later trying to look at the top of my head in the mirror.

Mel is ok i have been talking with her recently, think she is a bit busy with kids etc but she does lurk. We miss you Mel xxxx

BrunoM

LB, she removed her FB (or removed all MSE people from MSE? I think the former though) a few months back I think

Things my FIL does which are very small but annoy me:

brushes his teeth while wandering around the house with a towel draped over his shoulders, making sure he at least sticks his head in to see us so that we are aware of what he is doing

comes to the door of our small kitchen and hovers there while I give Elijah a meal, saying nothing, occasionally leaping forward to 'contribute' (puts the lid on the humus while my back is turned... picks up a wet wipe that fell on the floor...)

when reading books with Elijah, won't just read them, but stops and spells out every key noun (not a bad thing in lots of ways but a) we will decide if we want to teach our child!, and b) not all the time - sometimes he would just like to read a book please)

I had a £150 food shop order arrive yesterday, he is babysitting tonight while we go out for a meal, but he keeps repeating "I bought a tin of beans yesterday, I'll be fine!"

this morning the first thing he did after getting up was to find me to tell me that he had managed to discover which terminal his flight takes off from 4 days from now

ETA when shown a video of E looking at some chickens in a coop, responds by asking "has he had a tetanus shot?" and telling us how people can catch tetanus from chicken pecks

I am grumpy, hopefully going out for a meal will cheer me and make me a bit more charitable
