Ok, so I am ready for tomorrow. I have my best underwear ready so that if I get scored again I feel suitably attired.

I have used a quarter of a tub of body butter , which is a bit silly as this guy will be interested in my dry skin.

It feels a bit like getting ready for a date you are going on out of duty rather than desire. .


I am sure I said I was going to do less of this this year?

Is it the same doctor? He might find nipple tassles an interesting change from the last underwear?

I asked DH about this earlier. We both agreed we would assume that had we not brought something like this to work/ or back in the day school/college we would not assume the other would have dropped it off for us.

Its not an automatic assumption what ever your age and whether neuro typical or otherwise.

We might have tried to negotiate some loan from school or friend on the basis of having forgotten it and having good record, but I am guessing that might be a neuro typical view of the options available. In any case, we both thought we would have gone without too, and got on with the day.

During exam time that's a really silly tactic though. It really wouldn't have been hard for a school to see where he was timetabled to be and deliver it to him, where as he cannot have known, no kid could have, that his card might have been there.

With youngest, it is well known (and in his statement), that he needs food regularly as he has a stuttering pancreas (as the doctor explained it, sometimes it produces insulin, sometimes it doesn't and sometimes it provides too much insulin but not enough of either for medication or diet, just regular mealtimes and testing of blood sugars). If he goes without, he either gets very angry or he falls asleep and is exhausted ....yesterday was a falling asleep time thank goodness.

He's been like it since he was around 2 and ever since, we have been waiting for it to stop altogether...just like his father.

Good luck tomorrow lir.

TMI alert...

I went for a slightly overdue routine smear test about 10 days ago. Afterwards, when driving to work I was mildly horrified to remember that I hadn't epilated my legs for almost a month:o

Love that view but I couldn't live there...I would be forever in a panic about flooding!

Flooding and fire are my great OCD issues, I could live on the sea front but only if the property was higher than a Tsunami could reach.

Nope, another new one.

Here's an interesting thing.

Any physician I see asks how old I am then says ' oh I don't need to check your breasts then'.

Well, for a start, its not ego boosting that people can no longer wait for any excuse to grab the things, but also......you'd think if they thought it might be a possibility they'd have grope regard less of age?

( fwiw I check my breasts regularly, but, you know......I just think that's odd.

So, unless I wore a pounce, Demi cup or quarter cup bras or something sheer, nipple tassels would be a bit of a wasted outing.

I have considered marking up areas that trouble me with arrows. :rotfl: save time and effort.

Edit, pounce should have been plunge.

Seeing as I've been away for a couple of a days, just been to say hi to my plants... One of the Courgette seeds I planted a few weeks ago has sprouted :j

My solicitor's not even got all the covenant/title bits and bobs to invite me to the first meeting to go over them! If I complete, it'll be sometime around Xmas 2017 I think

There's a local auction house that's supposed to be really good ... so it's definitely "the best" in the county (if you read their website etc), so I popped in as it's viewing day .... what a bizarre and random collection of old tat. Nothing there worth having - I'd entertained ideas that it might be good for a few house essentials; it's not got anything I'd ever give house room to! Really shabby, dirty stuff - looks like the bailiffs turfed out squatters to be honest. And, let's bear in mind that's not me being snobby; I've rarely had anything new in my life - and always bought cheapest, with nothing matching ... srsly, this stuff was DIRE!

I also bought a small handbrush and "plastic garden tub" so I am ready to sort out the garden etc - and that's where the grass cuttings will go so I can take them to the tip

My grass cuttings will go into the composters, which I sorted this weekend. Way to go jelly, pick mega hot time to do exhertion like work! :doh:

Exchanged on Friday - completion date is 9th June. It was all rather stressful! Good luck with yours - nearly there and sounds like you'll be moving in before us?

I'm guessing that solicitor is looking for exchange & completion same day, next wednesday is the earliest possible, as 1 weeks notice needed for the mortgage funds. Will transfer deposit tomorrow or thursday I guess. Easier for me to get the time off next week (no students...)

LJ, that's brilliant! I have just moved meeting a friend from next weekend to this weekend if you want some help, or someone to watch you and drink wine . I'm quite good at putting things in alphabetical order. Not as practised as viva, perhaps, but acceptable!

Looks like it'll be a midweek move, but that's better for me. Try & get it all done in time for the bowls match saturday!
Currently trying to get hold of a mate who is visiting midweek to get him to bring his strimmer. Grass needs a trim! :eek:

Doozergirl's just asked that. This is what I told her:
Awww thanks - both to you and to lir for the original comment.

Yay! Exciting. Hope it all goes smoothly from here on.

Thanks for the update. To be fair, I've had it pretty easy I reckon. The support of nice people has made it a relative walk in the park!

I've had to re pot my toms twice!
Planted lettuce seeds last weekend as I got fed up of delaying doing them. 2 trays now, so I can take them up & plant extras shortly.

I did that too in similar circumstances. It's nice to know everything's definitely OK rather than only probably OK.

If they are anything like teachers then it has been hammered into them that they must not under any circumstances touch the things unless they will, if necessary, be able to produce legitimate medical reasons for doing so. Don't take it personally!
