I wish I had a hobby, I couldn't collect owt though, it would get lost in my hovel of a house.
Don't collect stamps - they take up loads of space. I recently bought a bookcase to store all my collections and half of it is stamps. Coins, bookmarks and stamp books are fairly compact - all you need is a shoe box.

EA ((HUGS)) I hope you are OK now
Yeah, keep having weird anxious feeling type things, i googled how i felt and it came up wih anxiety attacks, but i dont think its that.
Its probably my own mind making things 9999 times worse than it is, plus that combined with pregnancy hormones is never good :rotfl:
I just didn't want to say because it seems nothing compared to what GISI and CAFC are feeling currently0 -
tried telling DH last night and got "i think thats just what being a new parent is like"......... and "i dont think you are"

Buttons, I think you write really well. You are really funny and you make things both poignant and funny and interesting.:)
The above as a standalone comment. However if you did want to do any hobby writing ever I do happen to know of a fledgling frugal eating website which would be chuffed to bits with any bits of writing you might be willing to take on.;)

I am shocked and saddened to learn that my gorgeous little boy did not win the photo competition :eek:
How VERY dare they :rotfl:
Ah well we all know he was the cutest in the comp :cool:
and you can still get adams clothes online
Well I was all depressed but my boys have cheered me up with snuggles
My plan was to go to a soft play place straight after picking up Christopher, I never carry cash so had to get some out, I put the joint card in just to see what was in (thinking there was £5 ish) but it was overdrawn :eek: we don't have an OD facility on it so will get charged stupid amounts like £20 a day, put my card in at I'm over drawn on that which I knew I would be but I've still got over £400 OD unused OD but it wouldn't let me take any cash out ??:( so no soft play , thankfully I hadn't told Chris my plan so he wasn't upset or anything. I've transferred some out of my savings so not OD on the joint anymore but I'm :mad: with myself and felt poop that I always do stuff wrong.
I was supposed to get my hair cut next week (don't had it cut for at least 8mths) but now I feel like I shouldn't because its money spent on me - bah, why is life pants
we've spent half the afternoon snuggled up in bed watching kids tv and napping, Chris kept kissing Edgar:grinheart too cute!

Aw thank you Weezl
I think I'd be really apprehensive about sitting down to conciously write something, but actually it would perhaps work if I actually got off my bum and made any of your receipes lol.
Tell you what, I shall have a gander on the website, try something, and write a wee review
Has anyone on here used crest whitestripes? I know they don't sell them in the UK, but I was staring at my slanted front tooth earlier (its probably not but its me) and I noticed that smoking has taken a toll on the whiteness of my teeth, and so has all the spewingI am making a concious effort to stop myself, and has been working so far, because I really don't want spacey teeth and eroded gums, I already have a bit of bone loss.
Anyhoo, I want a brighter smile at a fraction of the price.
PLUS!, if my teeth are white, no-one will notice all the other flaws :rotfl:0 -

Since you don't seem like the self-centred melodramatic type, I'd say that the fact you think there's something wrong means there probably is. (But obviously I'm a random person on the internet and not an expert - you need to see someone who knows about these things.)
thanks hun.....
im watching L sleep on his daddy so its making me a bit glowy...Wealth is not measured by currency0 -

Do you collect notes at all Susan? I could probably get you loads of weird notes from all over the place, Idris' dad travels with work and I once went in his room and saw this HUGE pile of notes, I was like OMG! Then I looked and it's all yen, polska monies, russian, malay etc etc everything, though he did let us take the Us dolla dolla's and we exchanged them to buy Keira's moses basket :rotfl:0
