Am just updating from BF's. Its been quite a destress, as I forgot to bring my mobile phone so the kids cannot get intouch with me.!
I didnt bring any sewing with me, and am already champing at the bit with ideas for other things.
I am sure that Molly will be very touched by all the well wishes.
Twin2's BF has gone. My BF had a text message from Biggest of Mooloo to say she was at her house, and that they need the washing machine. (Well as she is useless at doing the washing, she may just have to bring it around to my house and do it until she is sorted, its not the be all and end all is it!). She is on anxiety tablets, I hope she will cope better then I give her credit for.
MattyMoo I have some really nifty ideas for some more personalised bags.
Molly when I get home, I have ideas for something for you as well!
DGD and my BF are makiing chocolate crispy cakes at the moment.
Ebay has stopped at the moment, but there are 7 days to go, so I dont really expect much activity.
I will be aiming to see if I can sell of some of my clothes that havent seen the light of day since I finished work! If I dont use the fabrics in another project of course.

Not sure a cottage industry is in the making, but it is the only thing that is keeping me sane at the moment. Focusing on making things takes my mind off of the calamity of the twins.
Twin1 has a lift to sign on tomorrow, from an old school friend. So I am so far, not in demand tomorrow. When DGD goes to Nursery I have a dream to sew a bag that has been going around in my mind, and start on the moses basket form Biggest of Mooloo's baby.

Its good therapy for you that your sewing keeps your mind off all the worrying things going on at the moment Mooloo. Good luck with your venture - I hope you do really well. Take carex

Molly41

Oooh Mooloo you are keeping me is suspense. I too have an idea for something you could make too. Wonder if it's the same thing :T:T:T

Many thanks for all your good wishes. I hope to get the transfusion on wednesday but am now worried that I will have a reaction. Too much medical knowledge goes a long way!

Glad you having a de-stress this weekend x

Well I am home. Found my mobile on the floor under the coffee table!
Did Sausage and chips, easy for DGD and myself.
Twin2 sounded terribly distraught on the voice mail, and had tried to contact me 7 times on Friday night, when her BF was leaving her. I think I am glad that I had left the phone now. Is that called provenance? providence? something like that?
Anyway, Biggest of Mooloo has kept me up to speed with it. Apparantly the girl from the family from hell and her BF have actually been helpful? So I will keep my mouth closed this time. But I believe it to be too good to be true and expect a demand for repayment etc ?
I am tired, and hope I get some sleep tonight.
I had wanted to do some sewing when I got home, but after the drive, I am not so sure now, and My eyes are tired.
Oh well.

Molly I hope we can catch up soon.
I think that DGD needs an early night she too looks tired. I hope that she will sleep till morning though if she does.!

Well I followed DGD to bed last night. I was in bed by 7.30. Late nights catching up with me, and an achey back I didnt want to get worse. So I went to bed.
This morning we have been up for an hour plus, but just been writing my diary, and my todo list.!
Eek, lots of little jobs have suddenly become urgent ones! Thats what prioritising the family has done for me.
Oh well. I will just have to tackle them as best as I can.
DGD wants to go to school,(Nursery), on her scooter like her friends do. But I cannot walk that far, (and back again), carrying a scooter.! So frustrating.
The sun is coming through the front room curtains, and as they are orange in colour, the glow is lovely.
Time I had my shower, or we will be struggling to meet the schedule for the rest of the day.
Twin2 is feeling very sorry for herself, and will need lots of prompting, help and the like to get moving off of her sofa!
Not what I need to add to my routines at all.
Will try the phone first. AS I don't really want extra driving, or visits that cost me in fuel and in other ways.! Healthwise, and financial wise!.

Mooloo,
It's most likely DGD just wants to arrive on her scooter like the others rather than having to go all the way there on it - Can you fit it in the car and park a couple of roads away and let her arrive on it?

Maybe when I go and collect her, I can park in the carprk by the shops and do it that way. Thanks for giving me the most obvious options. Mind you, thats still a walk for me, even if its only a little distance.! I will be so glad when this bout of sciatica eases! thats for sure.

Biggest of Mooloo has another appointment at the hospital, tocheck the baby's heart beat. Fingers crossed that its going to go OK. She will have the rest of the day off, and is coming over to see me.

I never managed to get my shower earlier, so I am going to try now!. Its my hair thats needing it.! I hate it when I am so slow.

Savvy_sewing

Well as usual the plans change at the last minute.
Biggest of Mooloo was kept at the hospital to see a consultant as the baby's heartbeat is still irregular. Every 3rd beat is a bit like a double beat, so its beating sort of douf, douf, da-douf, which could be a sign of a faulty valve? So she has to be monitored. They then decided that the "bump" was not growing so she had a fetal heartbeat scan, etc done.
She came "home" to spend the rest of the day with me. Hence I didnt do much, except sit and talk baby, moses basket fabric, etc etc etc. We have decided that it might be a good idea to have some Premature Baby clothes, on standby just incase. If they are not needed we will just donate them to the Prem baby unit, where the twins were as baby's anyway.
She came with me to collect DGD, and she walked back with her, so she could ue her scooter.
Molly is going to take it with her today, so that she can use it coming home tomorrow with her daughter, who helps me on a Wednesday.

The twins are doing what they like again and both are now in the "clutches" of the bad influences from the past.
The girl who lived with us, in Oxford, and disappeared the day of my breakin etc, in 2008, and has been on and off friends with twin1, has suddenly re appeared with Twin2. Twin2 has gone off with her in Northampton, and didnt go home last night. Last heard off she was in a pub in town
Now on Anxiety tablets thats no such a good idea! Also it meant that DS couldnt get his buspass or college pass from her house, where he had stayed on Friday last week. So he then got annoyed etc etc, and when I called him, he was, once again with the friend I do not approve of, staying at his parents house, but at the time, he was in the pub. By the sound of him, at about 8pm last night he was well on the way to being drunk.
Then just to top it all up twin1 rang me to tell tales on them, and she herself was with "the girl from the family from hell", and intended staying at her place last night.
So we have a switch of allegence between the twins and this girl, and she is the girlfriend of twin1's ex BF.! Confused.? So am I.
Then twin1 dropped a sentance into the conversation.
"I am thinking of moving back home for a while".??? Er, excuse me? Do I get a say? Well my say is a resounding NO!
Much as i love my children, I really do not think that I can cope with anyone else coming to live back home. (She thinks that DS is moving out, and moving in with her sister). I am aghast.
I cannot envisage anything good coming out of her coming home. Only extra work, and costs for me? I want them to be self sufficient not relying on me for god sake? Is that too much to ask/?
If she did move home, then there would be problems with DGD playing her off against me and with Twin 2? Oh I just do not want anyone else home. I want my home to be my home. I am getting used to DS not being here, and it being just DGD and myself most of the time.

And my BF, ? I doubt I would see him for dust.
