Anyone?

I will start off with a link to my latest post, a part of the story of Beth (formerly known as Dora) who moved to Geneva to escape a relationship turned sour.

This is NOT me, by the way. I have drawn on my knowledge of Geneva but it is not an autobiograpy :)

Shirley, I meant to ask you what's up? You've been low on a few threads lately...

Stitchthis, sorry you are feeling crap too. Why are you waking early? Anything I can do? Knitting group must start again soon! You need to swing this way and see my yarn bomb!

stitchthis · 03/09/2011 23:00

Just stewing probably. Can't wait for knitting. Need. Cake.

I can't bear to yarnbomb cos I'm so slowwwwwwww at knitting...couldn't say goodbye to a year's Work! Wink

Shirley I love your blogs.

Good night's sleep to all.

Angel786 · 04/09/2011 12:22

ShirleyKnot · 04/09/2011 12:27

I'm ok dilly. Had a bereavement, have some serious fury issues surrounding my ex ATM, and just generally a bit down.

I'll get over it. Smile

Thanks for your concern. X

DirtyMartini · 04/09/2011 13:13

Oh no, Shirley, I'm really sorry to hear that ... all of those things.

Sending you good thoughts x

Hullygully · 04/09/2011 13:16

Shirley Shirl, do you only hang here now?

Sorry you're down, gel

stitchthis · 04/09/2011 13:39

Feeling more constructive today so here's a quick crafty idea

Hang in there Shirley

ShirleyKnot · 04/09/2011 13:47

Thanks lovelies.

Hully, I'm still around the boards, not been feeling the love lately though - that's because you've been away! Heh!

ScatCatShoo · 04/09/2011 18:20

Hi everyone, I want to share something rather special with you. My first ever article for the Daring Kitchen is up and published now. Please do read and let me know what you guys think.

You can access it through my blog here or directly on the Daring Kitchen

Please do offer me some feedback, all criticism is very welcome as I have been seriously thinking of getting into food writing and I do need all the help I can get :-)

Cheers!

ScatCatShoo · 04/09/2011 18:58

Doh, wrong link for my blog. The article is here

Cheers!

DillyTante · 04/09/2011 19:08

That's really great scatcat, lovely article. Much more eloquent than my recent meditation on tea. The problem for me is I write as I talk, quickly, without thinking very much, and without clarity, with non sequitars and verbal fillers. Any tips on improving writing?

Shirley sorry you are having a shit time. Let us know how we can cheer you up.

Hi, I hope you're enjoying my blog if you've had a chance to check it out yet, and if you haven't please pop by distinctsingleparent.wordpress.com

I'm 27, I have two kids under 2 with the same babyfather, who isn't currently around. My life is pretty comical, even though it doesn't always feel very funny, and I'm a bit of a mix in terms of my background, which you will get to know if you keep updated with my blogs..

I just wanted to ask if there was anything that people would like me to blog about. I'm always giving friends advice about potty training/sleeping through/weaning/tantrums etc. I don't always get it right, but i have got a few tried and tested methods that have worked for me and my friends. Please give me a shout on the blog site if you'd like me to address something and I can dedicate a blog to it.

Hope to see you there soon :D xx

Sorry for being AWOL. Guests, dizzy spells and lots to do these past few days. Did manage to blog today though back to recipes with cookies and chicken&ham pie. #bogof

Dilly, your blog post was really lovely... it was weird, but I'd literally just submitted my article, and then I read yours and thought, hey that's such a co-incidence :)

MmeLindor, hope you're fine? Whats with the dizziness? Have you had your blood pressure checked?

MmeLindor. · 05/09/2011 10:18

Don't know what the dizzyness is, am going to phone and make an appointment with doc. I do have some neck stiffness, so it may be due to that. Or I have a stiff neck from holding head still.

Shirley
Sorry to hear about the bereavement. Hope you are ok.

Off to catch up on your posts now.

Here is my latest post about teaching of foreign languages in schools]]

If you've got a stiff neck too, could it be migraine, MmeLindor?

Was going to say anaemia or overtiredness, but stiff neck a bit odd.

FlamingoBingo · 05/09/2011 11:10

Stitch - love that wrapping paper idea :) I've used tissue paper before, with silver stars added to it.

FlamingoBingo · 05/09/2011 11:11

Blogged about when I think mums ought to stop breastfeeding this morning.

MmeLindor. · 05/09/2011 11:26

Flamingo
Have had it for days now, so I don't think it is a migraine. Although I do have a bit of nausea. I had this a couple of years ago, not long before we moved to Geneva.

Good post, on bfing. What a plonker that Hilary Jones is.

Labyrinthitis? But migraine can last days too. My DH gets headache, nausea, dizziness and stiff neck with his. He had labyrinthitis once too - was awful :(

Cheria · 05/09/2011 12:21

Blogged about there still seems to be one rule for those with power, and one for the rest of us here
