Blardy hell, thought I'd posted before about going to wrap pressies, the post was still waiting to be sent when I just came back!

Have wrapped some, but I got a hard arse so have come to let it plump back into shape before hitting the floor again. I farking hate curly ribbons, bows, wrapping paper, scissors, selotape, everything to do with wrapping!

Have got him a card though from DS2 It says 'Happy birthday Thomas' on the front and when you open it it sings "Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy to Thomas, happy birthday to you" How cool is that? He is gonna love it

Star, shushhhhh, I am cleary on the wagon, look>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

LG&T poor Hugo bring on the (non-fictational) sun I say, get rid of the bugs for a while. Hope he get's over it quickly.

We getting a new thread then or what?!!

LG&T - his legs hurt? oh bless, he did try! Soo much sympathy coz there's so little you can do except chase them with bowls and towels - at least that's how it goes here. That said, once DS has been ill he normally collapses so said towels are normally all over me! Hope your day gets better.

calsworld · 12/03/2008 11:18

Kayz...she's just jealous, ignore her. You deserve a break!

Mine's mostly OK, her heart is in the right place and she adores both DH and DS. Mostly she ignores me as much as possible - including when I'm giving her instructions on how to look after DS.

She also has this really, really annoying habit of saying things to DS that put me in a negative light - I know he won't take any notice, but its the fact that she does it all that bothers me. Things like, "you're not tired are you, what does mummy know" as he's collapsing on the floor with exhaustion or "wicked mummy to take that glass/battery/the dog away so that you can't smash/eat/batter it"
etc etc.

However - she does get FIL to do LOADS to help us out round the house and garden, always brings the most wonderful steak pies for lunch when they come to visit and makes sure I get to do nothing whenever I'm here or there so that she can get max time with DS.

MIL's eh! They wouldn't be without us you know!

Just contemplating between having a last indulgent day of doing bugger all, or actually getting off my backside and doing something useful - like all the washing and cleaning that still need doing...

And I haven't been to the doctor's yet - got sidetracked - best go now or they'll close.

kayzisbroody · 12/03/2008 10:57

Poor Hugo!

Can you divorce MIL's?

Mine is horrible, she keeps being nasty about us going to London.

Starshinetiger · 12/03/2008 10:51

Poor you and Hugo, LG&T. Everyone seems to have that at the mo, but is no fun at all being housebound.
I've got a famous person's autograph!

largeginandtonic · 12/03/2008 10:39

I will be housebound AGAIN. Just shoot me someone please

Starshinetiger · 12/03/2008 10:37

Hi Heron, how are you?

ohjoy · 12/03/2008 10:22

hi all!

BigTeuchLittleTeuch · 12/03/2008 10:17

coo-ee! anyone still here or have y'all disappeared onto another thread?!

Hullo Pinkgirl, been visiting the other threads you are on...good luck!

I was floored with horrible migraine yesterday then upset tum

Was meant to be working as well, so still have all my hours to do but with DS as DH can't take him again.

I'll catch up properly in a bit.

Starshinetiger · 12/03/2008 10:16

Morning all,
Listen, how many times have I mentioned it, I've given up chocolate for Lent - it's a banned word!
Only 11 days to go until DSis and I can gorge on choc on Easter Sunday at my Mum's and we have the extra celebration that my DB and DSIL will be over from Australia too!! Yippee. Am confident that all that excitement will get me through this cycle of not trying, but not sure about next cycle...
Disenchanted - CONGRATULATIONS! Agree that a faint line is still a line. How exciting!
NJ, you are clinging on to the top of the wagon by your fingernails and you know it
Welcome pink - sounds very promising and like you and Cal are in the same place, so we'll keep everything crossed.
Okay, so maybe 10 days and 22 hours until I can eat chocolate, if I get up and eat it at 8am on Easter Sunday - me counting, surely not
Didn't really miss it after 2 weeks, but this week I really need it (must be linked to OV or something ), shall have to have some practice GOFs or something! On the plus side have lost 4 pounds in the last couple of weeks, so on my way to my target before TTC.
Right, enough waffle from me...
Ooh, nearly forgot - LG&T, can I have your autograph?!

kayzisbroody · 12/03/2008 10:00

No Cal I don't, I might have to go and buy some.

kayzisbroody · 12/03/2008 09:59

Yeah thats fine, I like it

calsworld · 12/03/2008 09:59

Oh Kay, I really, really feel for you . Do you have access to chocolate for a quick energy boost?

I'm off to have a shower and go get my 'return to work' note from the doctors. Catch you later...

NatalieJane · 12/03/2008 09:58

It's OK, I am sure we will think of another Easter themed title if we do need it before Easter.

Is everyone happy with 'Eggstra special treats for Easter'? And who is doing the new one? LG&T?

OP posts:
kayzisbroody · 12/03/2008 09:58

OMG Cal, it could be history repeating itself.

kayzisbroody · 12/03/2008 09:57

I am so tired today that my brain wont work

calsworld · 12/03/2008 09:57

Its my birthday on the 21st - I was pregnant with DS this time in 2006 but only just! I found out on my birthday...

calsworld · 12/03/2008 09:56

Surely not Nat, don't forget Easter is early this year! Good Friday is 21st March which is week on Friday!

Disenchanted · 12/03/2008 09:53

Hey pinkgirl, hope you are well

calsworld · 12/03/2008 09:53

I like...."Eggstra special treats for Easter"

NatalieJane · 12/03/2008 09:53

I am sooooooo still on it, just not in it.... my halo is still here...... just

largeginandtonic · 12/03/2008 09:52

Welcome Pinkgirl have lurked on some of your threads, bizzare that you still dont have a bfp. It could be your cycle all screwed up though.

Cal my symptoms have been no different really with each of them. They were worse with dd and the twins. Your body still has to do all the things to get yourself ready for having the baby regardless of weather you have done it before or not

pinkgirl30 · 12/03/2008 09:52

morning kb and nj thanks
