Newbie's first post

[sharksandflamingoes]

Like to lurk but have never posted,never been brave enough I suppose. Love the humour, am in awe of the support offered and a little bit frightened by some of the flamings (even when they might be well deserved).
So a bit about me, I'm 22 work in Local Government have a dp who's 32. As my user name suggests I like sharks and flamingoes and I like to crochet, to draw and watch Netflix.

Hi there!
Thought I'd just pop in to say hello! I'm not a newbie but the first time you post can be a little worrying.

Hi OP!

not a newbie but welcome to the boards.
The flamings scare me as well, but the support you can get is breathtaking.

Hello I'm a newbie and trying to understand my way round the mountains of ideas, info, help that mumsnet provides. I want to start a new thread about my DD and something I'm really worried about but don't know where to start?

[Sazzles1]

Just left work as came to a choice point.
12 hour days regularly working in excess of 60 hours week. Plus a 2 hour round trip of 65 miles a day. I'm knackered
Family got pissed off cause I'm never home.
Work refused to compromise or provide support so I left.
Finally slept a full night!!
Chilling in the sunshine refusing to clean while just recover.
BOLLOCKS to it. Housework delayed for last 18 months so 1 day won't make a difference

[Sazzles1]

P.S.
I'm new here.

[VCoughlan]

This is my first post, so just trying it out really. Just had my 3rd child, already have a teenage girl and a toddler 'roaster' son lol. I work in Education and value the ethos of this site

[VCoughlan]

Och I'd definitely put the housework on hold and bollox to it all indeed, my house is a riot and you need some serious agility to move around with all the clutter, gotta be good for you really

[Sazzles1]

Sat and watched catch up TV most of the day instead.
Sleepy lazy day till 14 yr old home.
Now it's feeding time for the bottomless teenage stomach

[Painting2016]

Hi like it says on the tin newbie well that's me I guess I was just reading what some painters charge and its quite scary stuff. I run my own painting company and I keep my prices down and take on lots of jobs that others don't want and I am always busy so how can people justify high rates there is lots of work so why get greedy?

[BeccaMumsnet]

Hi Stressedmum123 - perhaps take a look at our Mumsnet Local site in Essex and pop a post on the talk boards over there.

You could also post on our Special Needs Chat board. Some parents on there may be familiar with the school.
