gingerwine Hi, I love ginger something and whisky, but no alcohol at the moment, actually it seems quite easy not to be able to drink alcohol.
We had a great day today, saw my sister and her family and my mum, the weather was good while we were outside and only rained while we were inside. The kids, my dd and my two nephews, were incredible noisy and we did what we did last time, ran like mad for the last train.
"Do you have Italian blood in your veins?"
- No, I always wanted to have something exotic about me but I am pretty much pure bred English for the last few generations. Although my dad once had an Italian girlfriend and so I think my mum used to joke that I could have been part Italian! I chose the name because I liked the image of the graceful Italian greyhound dogs, and would love to portray myself as that! I was once incredibly lithe and graceful, but of course at the time I was very shy and thought I looked terrible. Now I probably look terrible but I have bags of confidence most of the time! Crazy isn't it. How we spend our 'best' physical years feeling insecure!
Good luck for your trigger shot, all the very best. How old are DSs?
MercenaryMom thanks so much for the special sticky chocolate boobs . I must admit I don't feel an urge to test at all. I kind of don't want it to end so I am almost going to have to force myself to test in two weeks!
"...how did you choose Emerald Jake and Laurel Daisy as names?"
- I?ll refer to them as Emerald and Laurel in future but thanks for remembering their full names! Emerald - I love the colour green, it used to be my favourite as a kid, I chose Jake as it?s a name I like but we won?t use (it?s the name my friend would love and she is unlikely to have any kids). I never usually suggest anyone else should avoid a name but for me, as my dear friend has never had kids and probably never will, I just felt we would not use that name ? not in my top 5 anyway but you know what I mean!). One of the December flowers is the Laurel and if (big IF) we are successful, our due date would be in December (also I always think my dad looked a bit like Laurel out of Laurel and Hardy!). I'm not sure but I think I mentioned before that I chose Daisy as it is also a name I like but we won?t use as DH doesn?t like it and once had a dog called Daisy when he was a child!
Do you think Emerald Jake sounds like a superhero and Laurel Daisy sounds like a county and western singer? I do. I like the unreality of the names for me; it is a rather unreal time. I feel in one sense pregnant, and in one sense not! Maybe it does not help that I have a bit tummy partly due to irritable bowel bloating. So if I said I was pregnant with twins, people would believe me!
So there is the story.
Tyler and Willow were just unisex names I liked and, again, DH would not choose these as he is quite traditional when it comes to names!
Long-winded story but thanks for asking! As I say, some people would not put this much thought into it and would not find it helpful to do this ? but I do! What does that say about me, overly complicated, I would imagine!
sgibbo how are you doing?
fionab I doubt you have got much further on with your investigations into the world of donor eggs, but good luck and feel free to ask anything you want to.
I have discovered caramel eggs and prefer them to crème eggs, now having done the taste test I can confirm that Galaxy ones are my favourite and my dh likes the Cadbury ones! I love doing taste tests! But since I have done the mindful eating of a raison I am actually losing weight! In spite of the odd chocolate hit!
Idreaminlindtchocolatebun... How are you doing? Migraine gone? Could the chocolate be adding to it or doesn?t it bear/bare thinking about! ? Which bear/bare should it be?? I should know!
Mojangles How's it going?
KiwiKat How's it going for you too? Do you feel like you have a super secret at work? Less stressed than before?
Cerubina hi, how are you feeling?
Regards to Horton, Islegrin, riggly and all.
Chocolate to all
