in your dressing gown I've been to the gym - preen- and am now slumped here thinking of what I ordered in this weeks shopping which should be here in a mo - chiefly ice cream and pizza

omg iggy so thinking of you and your dh today. Go girl. Horace?

well my tuppence is this - wierdly nothing upsets me about babies/ lack of them anymore. I know that No.5 was due after iggy around mid august and No.6 is in early december. The rest of them are in a foggy jumble except the first one which will always stay fixed in my memory.
There have been times it hurt of course we have all been there and sometimes it has been a thread of diverse eggshells as we all shift places but that is the circle of life.

Most of the reason I have come through this is because of you lot and I can't thank you enough for all being there at really some of the worst times of my life, especially recently.

monkey I don't think it has hit me yet, in fragments it has but not really.
Your mum always had the magic words to say and that must be such a terrible void that no one can fill but please stick around if you can bear too. Can definatley relate to someone else carrying everything for you, this is going to be a hard few months lovely lady, I am so sorry.xx
You are doing better with the water than me btw. I am back on treacle thick coffee and spritzers

ps doodles rock loved them and you can wash them, what more is there to love and the shoe box it's dinky.

qa your posts are lovely, so thoughtful and very wise. So if you can write a small thoughtful and wise sentence you will at least impress me

where is my ice-cream?

barbie1 · 24/07/2010 11:59

drinks
soda water
cream
decaf tea and coffee
herb tea lemon or lime juice
spring water
water
mineral water
