you've hit the nail on the head pigpen...yes some kids behave like that but most parents would half lynch their kids if they did. the other parents don't give a **** so of course the threat of 'i'm going to phone your mother and father' is met with 'go on then'. i'm about to stop being a quiet parent who helps out and accepts what's going on. i'm going to go and kick !!! as i've had enough.

chicken dinner was yum yum yum !

flying has been minimal xx

Right dog biscuits...

ooh.. I have marrowbone treats... you know the ones that look like mini sausage rolls.. posh stuff tonight... (they were on offer!!)

*chucks treats to.... Raphael... cos she will moan if I don't... one for natty.. it's a good start.. keep it up.. one for Nicki.. turbolister is mindnumbing!!!... Mudbath can have one for putting up with a class of scrote-sprogs and not killing them.. one for Michelle to make her sit still for a few minutes.. and a second one for raphael to spoil her weightloss and for doing her list yesterday too!!*

*emo-sniff*

I need a doggy biscuit....

Michelle, hope the pains either stop or lead onto something quickly. With DS2 I had braxton hicks from about 24 weeks. Never had any with DS1. I did get a labour scare with DS 2 though. All I can say is I knew they were labour contractions. Not only were they on teh moniter but they took my breath away and i couldn't think of anything at all while I was getting one. That was triggered by dehydration and I drank like mad to make it stop. Midwife thought I was mad but it worked!

Can I shove my brats to bed now? They have been... trying... since I collected them. DS1 was a little !!!!!! at the podiatrist!

pigpen

:eek: .. Tia.. you braved the podiatrist????? Defintiely needing a dog biscuit.. here you go... *chuck* .. enjoy!

Mudbath - it sounds like a day with my class when the teacher is off and me and a HLTA have them!

She was off Wednesday, Friday last week and yesterday - I had such wonderful days at work!!!!

Don't you just hate it when you're told someone will turn up at such and such a time and they don't?

DS has just found an Easter egg from the egg hunt we had at - Easter - I thought there was one short but just assumed there was one missing from the packet. He now wants to know if he's the winner!

Michelle, hugs and excitement coming from this part of the country.

Make sure you have something to eat NOW just in case....

Everything crossed for you
