    Evening All,

    Just come on here for a quick rant so excuse the not having read through the whole thread and the lack of OSiness! I'm about to go and punch my husband :eek: I may hurt my hand, but I'm sure I'll feel a lot better. He's just "helpfully" commented that it's "not the right thing" to try and get a baby moving before it's due date, and obviously, because he had his last child 16 years ago he's right. Needless to say, I'm going to have to go and kill him :mad: preferably by making him give birth to a watermelon.

    Rant over - thanks for the vent xx

    Hope everyone is having a better day than me xx

    Evening All
    Hope your day has been OK JackieO and glad your brother has been there to keep you company, hope you enjoy his visit.
    Welcome to the new folk and glad those with car problems have them sorted without too much expense.
    Lowesy, deep breath and remember it wont be long!
    Good news Bitsy!
    Someone mentioned an interview (sorry, can't remember who) but hope it has gone well.
    Enjoy your evening FB!
    JackieG Glad the visit went well, always a relief.

    Sorry if I have missed anyone/anything.

    Lots of tidying up done for the Estate Agent's visit, another one tomorrow and then have to decide who to go with. Trying to catch up on the washing mountain but drying is another matter. It keeps on raining here! OSness stops me from using the TD! Tea was mexican type chicken and veg followed by yet more Baileys cheesecake left from the weekend!

    Take care. XX

    Ooh, so sorry, Happy Birthday Cheepskate!!

    RIP Iain

    Awwww bless you but babies come when they decide. The exact mechanism of labour is so complex that it's not fully understood. However you could have fun trying in the meantime xx
    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

    Evening Guys,

    Just a quick update. Thanks for all the positive vibes. The interview went ok and now have to wait to hear about a possible 2nd interview. To be honest it sounds like a really full on job and a heavy workload and I really don't know if I want to take on such a big role again iykwim. Will just wait and see if they call me back. In the meantime I have applied for a couple of other things that are part time which would be better so hopefully I will hear about them soon.

    Ok, am shattered and need an early night, have a good evening all x
