skintscotslass

Evening all

Managed level 1 today I've not even made the bed yet. At least I've replaced the sheets, so I might take DDs downie (she's at her Dads, I'm not that mean!) Toothache is really bad. Have taken more drugs and am now drinking cider. Have finally found my dentists phone number (how couldI not have a note of this????), so will phone first thing in the morning.

No nap for me today, so feeling quite tired. Heading to bed very soon.

Pigpen - your bunnies and children are sooooo cute.

Cant remember what else I was going to say! Probably something to do with my overuse of !!!!! and ?????

Night night xx

Michelle... PICS ARE HERE... the beige one is spotty and we think the other one is Humbug.. they are so tiny and really huggy.. the black and white one tried suckling from the cat earlier and our older bunny loves them.. she keeps rounding them up and nuzzling them.. its really cute!

Jill.. make sure you wake him up EVERY time you get in or out of bed!!!!!!!!!

Doh! That'll be the footie your DH is going to on Saturday then? I'm not the brightest....

Right, you and G&B must promise not to gang up on me tomorrow night. She had such great fun at the last Hearts/Rangers game. Grrrrrrr....

Does anyone know if i can freeze savory eggs

Not sure on the official line but I have many times and they and those eating them have been fine.

PTA stuff all handed over so that is nearly it.

MS and trip to ASDA in the morning then hopefully some flying catchup before a friend comes for coffee

Yes.. but it is a little hysterical and a total over reaction IMO.. some of the parents were carrying on like it was cholera!!!! One little boy was really frightened begging his mum not to take him to the doctor.. surely it is simpler to go to the minor ailments thing and get a bottle of vermox.. one spoonful and they are dissolved.. honestly is there really any need to frighten the poor little things?! (children not the worms!!) .. it was probably one some child had dug up outside and dropped in the loo for a laugh anyway!!

I've found the easiest way to get rid of the head lice is to shave said child!!

Big worms or thread worms?

Thread worms are just tablets for adults and liquid for kiddies, I have some in the cupboard!

Total over-reaction, I agree. Got the same chance as getting them from a nursery with an infected child as walking into McDonalds... or anywhere else for that matter.... A big 'hand washing' drive would be better!

Would be funny if a kid did dig up a worm! Was it all the 'soccor moms' who were going mental?

New bunnies!!! cutttteeeee!!!!!! How old?

mojt - I let my DS (age 4) play upstairs on his own now, not that he wants to :mad: I could use the peace! DD (age 3) does as well. They went through a spell 6 months ago when he was just turned 4 and she was not yet 3 where they used to just dump toys out of bixes and play with the boxes. After one spell with 2 friends where they emptied all the drawers too I TOTALLY lost it and they havent done too much OTT trashing since then touch wood.
They also know they only play in their bedrooms, not mine or the bathroom or spare room or the baby's room, and they do observe this rule too :T Their windows are locked and the key is close to the window but up high so they can't reach. (This is the same with all the upstairs windows actually).

kdean - I have a MR fastbake and I love it :j Its about 7 years old now, probably a lot better now (certainly a lot cheaper) but I do love mine

Pollybear - are you a techy ? Usually only techies talk about blue screen of death :cool: What OS do you have ?

judi24 - working single mum of 4 - respect! Have fun on here its a great laugh

Mudbath - :rotfl: about your car missing from the drive you twit:rotfl:

Keep telling me i can do it please

Michelle - not long now.... hang in there ... soon pregnancy will be a distant memory .... and you will have new LO and it will all be worth it. As soon as you stop work things will be soooo much better ((((hugs))))

vanilla - well done on your exam :beer:

Tonight I have...

• Pegged washing out

• Loaded washing machine
• Filled up dishwasher
• Picked up stuff lying around on the stairs and put it away
• Put 4 pairs of shoes away
• Cleared dining table
• Emptied 3 old kilner jars of mincemeat into the bin (they've been staring at me for about 3 weeks :eek: )
• Walked dog

Michelle, you can and will do it! You’ll do great aswell because you always do! Oh and yep, closed the doors, it seems to have held together while we were out and going to phone landlady in the morning.

JillD **passes wet smelly kipper for slapping DP with** know how you feel and how tiring it is, my partner never did a night feed ever, was lucky if he did a day one, maybe it’s time to stamp your feet and tell him straight? Hope little DD behaves herself tonight for you. I agree with pigpen, try and wake him up every time you get up, never worked with mine (I used to have to push him with force to stop him rolling on a feeding baby!) but worth a try.

AnW’sMum wohoo for the new DW is it working ok? I love mine, even when we move I will HAVE to buy one!

You’ve probably guessed I didn’t get out of going, but only because DSs screamed the place down wanting to go, grrrr, could have done with an earlier night! Anyway wasn’t as stressful but no doubt I will be in agony tomorrow with all the lifting and carrying. Cooking dinner at 10pm not my idea of fun, have had to do an emergency washing aswell because DS1 has no clean uniform for the morning after destroying another jumper this week so waiting for that to finish so I can sling it on the radiators before I can get to bed.

Bedroom day tomorrow here, need to try and figure some way of getting my sheets to stay on as that memory foam widget (which is lovely t sleep on and makes me want to stay in bed on a morning ) is making them come off all the time. Much more studying needs doing, got a little done today but not as much as I would have liked to.

Right that washer must be nearly done now, will go and tidy the kitchen while I wait for it to finish off, night night all x

JillD_2

right just fed her first of night feeds. Hopefully it will be 3ish then 6.30ish but it could be 2am and 5am Actually that might be better at least I will get back to bed after the second one ...... We should have a sweepstake on when she will sleep through. Am beginning to think it will be NEVER
