    In fairness, if I could, or worked as many hours as she does, I would too :)

    So what keeps you up kitten? Insomnia? Brain too full?

    Think I have turned topsy turvy, not working at the moment (still on maternity) so not getting up till about 10 so not going to bed until about 4.

    Will need to change it at some point especially with OH going back to work next week but liking having the world to myself at this time.

    Don't blame you. It can be lonely or peaceful, depending in your mood, being up in the night. Great time for christmas shopping though, online or in larger supermarkets... ;) how long do you have off? Or is it more about when you're ready?

    I have been off for 6 weeks but legally i get the full year if I wish so have left it open. I am hoping to get a new job in the new year so that I don't have to go back. Don't think I can face going back, the only reason I stayed was to qualify for maternity leave (never thought I would be going back with twins :( )

    I have put together my CV so just need to get applying so I can qualify for MA leave for future bear cubs.

    Don't have any supermarkets open round here (London is so backwards)

    I reckon both need some bear cubs, pronto :o

    London is backwards. I couldn't live there, it has to be said.

    I don't think I could bear the cv lark, but what sort of thing are you thinking of going for?

    Definitely with the bear cubs for both :)

    Just think I need to get an admin/pa job fairly close to home. I currently work in international events which takes up a lot of time and energy along with being away from home which doesn't help with TTC. (Plus it is a 4 hour commute of a day)

    You never know ebay may be my future, although it has taken 4 hours to put on 6 items. Any suggestions?

    And that is why my spare room is still full if ebay stuff ;)

    What about hotel/corporate/gig/celebration events planning? What do you enjoy doing? Or what about the job did you like most?

    I currently work in corporate, think I just want out now. It was great when I was younger (staying out till 3 socialising etc) but I just want to get home after work now. An office based 9-5.30 job. (Last April I was away all month as I was travelling) It always sounds great but I just spend all my time in hotels :(

    I have time to decide though. I am hoping that I get a BFP before new year then I just have to work out finances after which wouldn't look great but I am happy to deal with that when I get there. Poke fate with the big pointy stick :):)

    I ask also hopping that you get your bfp before then :D I know they said you'd struggle to conceive naturally previously, what have they said since? I can't remember why that was now either...?

    Re job, I'm not surprised, I'd hate being away that much, I'm a homebody.:) plus I reckon you need will the company, love, cuddles and support you can get for a wee while

    I've just taken out a medicash scheme, which means we've only get the birth of a baby payout after 12 months...hoping I'll have to miss out on that one ;)

    Not fancying my chances for this cycle though. I've got cm with red flecks in today, same as I did 6 days before real af past cycle...:cool:
