    Oh hello Glam! You must be delighted your BIL is gone! Hope the doctor can help.

    Bruno, hope your wallet turns up.

    Salesshopper, closed/private/secret groups need to be searched for; they don't show automatically normally.

    Hugs for your bad night Mel, we had one here too :(

    Jabs this morning, Wee Beastie needs a bath first but I just CBA.

    Big hugs Aless, you'll be fine and hopefully the relief of the money coming in will make up a bit for the whole working thing.

    :j for Ladybird's cashback.

    (((hugs mel for rubbishy night)))

    happy holidays GISI!

    DP gone to work and little man still snoozing - can't cope with the quietness, very unusual! We've had 4 nights totally slept through now, it's wonderful. That's probably well jinxed it

    Productive weekend here as started grouting the bathroom and can see one room is nearly dragged from the 60's - we moved in over 12 months ago!

    Been looking on ebay at double buggies (again! LOL am only about 6 weeks!) - lots of side by side ones for not much money so thinking get one of those, flog it again when we don't need it and revert back to my nice xlr!

    Morning

    Hope you found your wallet Bruno.

    Ladybird - have a look at EA Active rather than Wii Fit. I've got both and Wii Fit isn't really that good for fitness. It's more for fun and messing about. If you want to get fit and tone muscles, EA Active is a better choice.

    Busy day at work and I've got James parents night this evening.

    Have a good day all xx
    Here I go again on my own....

    Bruno, hope your wallet turns up soon.

    Glam, hope the doctor gets you sorted out.

    Mel, hope you get some sleep.

    I too had an argument with DH last night. But got it sorted out ;) Then had an argument with the boys and threatened to Cancel Christmas because not everyone wants to be up from 5am! A new game they bought yesterday is confiscated for good after they were told not to ask for it till after school and ended up waking me up 3 times to ask to play it and threw a tantrum when told no.

    Amber is still sleeping. Today I need to sort out washing, do some ironing, clean the kitchen properly and study biochemistry which isn't as bad as I thought, I know most of it already. I said I'd go visit my mum later too, so will head over at lunch time for a wee while. So I need to get my stuff done in the morning. 9am is time to move.

    I've not done my JSA application I'm waiting to see what happens tomorrow, plus I'm not sure if they suspend my claim until I've used they money I've been given.
    Since you're been paying NI contributions, you should get contribution based JSA rather than income based JSA so any savings or other money/income you have shouldn't affect it. (Assuming it hasn't changed since I had it five years ago.)

    Also on another note, how did you manage the transition from bottle to cup for milk feeds? He has moved onto cows milk but will only have it out of a bottle and am not sure how to move him on!
    Alice only had one bottle a day but what we did was try her with the cup first and if she wouldn't drink from it or only drank a little bit we would pour it into a bottle to finish the feed. After about a week or two of doing that, she was happily taking it from the cup.

    Thanks guys :) Thought I should come back on and let you know how I got on.

    Seems I have post natal depression :( I think I've been hiding from it for months and my own low mood (prior to having J) hasn't helped any. I have a blood test booked for tomorrow and some anti-depressants to take. Feel like a weight is lifted just by telling someone and getting help.

    I'll try and get back on later, but if someone sent me an MSN message last night OH didn't tell me until bedtime!!! :o
