ThatVikRinA22 · 18/03/2013 23:19

Of course you can be the penines...I was just looking for big rocks...and the penines...well they are surely a bit of a damp squib compared to the mighty urals...but if that's what you want I'm not going to argue...

bassetfeet · 18/03/2013 23:24

I like being a big rock actually . The Pennines are a bit damp [Cue Miranda and her rude words Grin .

EdwiniasRevenge · 18/03/2013 23:27

24hrs after my drunken ramblings I can't believe we are still musing tge pros and cons of different mountain ranges....

Can't say we don't have variety on this thread :o

ThatVikRinA22 · 18/03/2013 23:34

funnily enough....i am once got called the Pam Ayres of mumsnet on account of my penchant for rhyme.....so Ayres rock suits me just fine. Grin

there once was a lady on meds
who friends languished at length in their beds
'til hellesbelles came along
and made us get on
despite all our heads being sheds!

bassetfeet · 18/03/2013 23:42

Mmmm . Maybe this mountain range thingy could be the embryo of a new thread title ?

Like your poem Vicar Grin

EdwiniasRevenge · 18/03/2013 23:48

Ayres rock. The himalays. The andes and even the pennines. If you need a rock to lean on we're all in here....

Or maybe not...

ThatVikRinA22 · 18/03/2013 23:49

i thank you....

Hey all. Haven't been around since the last thread. Having another depressive episode right now and just wanted a bit of selfish hand holding. Know it will pass but Jesus I feel low.

Hope you're all okay.

boobs we are just contemplating our 3rd thread....i hope you feel free to join us on it when we think of a title....

so sorry about your dad UA....hope he continues to improve. x

right. must get to bed now. last day of bathroom fitter being here tomorrow - cant wait to get it all finished, and have a lie in!

UA I hope your Dad is settled down and comfortable and I am glad that the pneumonia is responding to treatment and retreating.

Sir good morrow!

Bassetfeet I am across the Atlantic. I moved there because I loved my work so much (moving continent was an after-thought) and the place has kind of grown on me.

Quick wave to all at the moment. I want to move into Vicar's bathroom! Hugs to SnowyMouse and NanaNina.

I promise to come back and write more but I need to try to get to bed at a reasonable hour this evening. Good morning to all when you're up.

I did my ironing pile! I tidied one paper pile! The laundry is in the machine (I forgot to switch it on but it is poised for action), dishes are done.

DD was well but had a little fever spike later on today. She appears to be on the mend and she is generally a happy little thing.

I will wash the floor in the hallway tomorrow and put a fresh tablecloth down in the dining room. Amazing how table coverings change the aspect of a room.

EdwiniasRevenge · 19/03/2013 04:31

Evening all.

I'm awake and ruminating. It was brownies this evening and as many of you know recent clash makes that stressful :(

Hello sirboob. Passes a hand to hold. ..

Thoughts are with you UA. We lost my stepfather almost a year ago to pneumonia as a secondary complication to cancer so know of the roller coaster you are on.

I think we all want to move into vicars bathroom...I'll bring some lovely Soap & Glory bubbles...

mama glad I didn't tell you off for posting at 4am yesterday. Didn't realise you were in a different time zone.

EdwiniasRevenge · 19/03/2013 07:54

And now I foresee a crash day.

Exhausted

EdwiniasRevenge · 19/03/2013 08:59

Back in bed.

Freezing

Nausea and wretching (think related to tiredness)

Whole body aches.

Can't keep my eyes open.

Dont want to silence my phone tho in case school ring re the bullying.

ThatVikRinA22 · 19/03/2013 09:13

sounds like a bug ed - a brilliant excuse to stay in bed if ever there was one. get well soon.

im attempting to tidy up. I need to do another coat of paint in the bathroom - you can see the brush marks, fitter says i need to us a roller so when he is done i will be donning my B&Q see through overalls and cracking on again. i look like a transparent telly tubby....they are see through and dont actually stop paint going anywhere.....

right. must crack on. Floors desperate for a wash.

EdwiniasRevenge · 19/03/2013 09:19

Image of a transparent teletubby making me smile.

Oh and one ear itches badly inside and I have earache on the other side. Im truely broken today.

Dtds are eventually at school nearly after bus dramas (main bus route vlosed due to road works. Substitute bus route flooded. 2nd substitute route partially blocked by an accident due to being inappropriate for the traffic using it...). Think I'll set my phone to block mode...

TheSilveryPussycat · 19/03/2013 09:36

Boobs sorry to hear this, glad you know it will pass. Remember the power of the duvet, and don't be afraid to use it.

UA glad the treatment is working for your DF. Time together is so precious. I had a tendency to fall apart at trivial things, but could rise to a crisis - I think things become clearer in a crisis, so I could just act iyswim.

Ed think of it as recovering, not crashing. Am lucky that I have the luxury of spending v slow days, much of them in bed, when I need my jangled nervous system to quieten down again.

See-through overalls vicar? What level would that be I wonder?

EdwiniasRevenge · 19/03/2013 12:12

I've woken up feeling much much better physically. Still sleepy.

I guess the leveling would be dependent on what is worn underneath...I do assume there is something underneath if they are see through :o

ThatVikRinA22 · 19/03/2013 12:12

they are made of paper SPC but really quite useless. They are porous so paint goes straight through, so you have to strip....thank God im not near a window or i would be scaring the neighbours, dogs and small children. They are totally see through.
and as unflattering as its possible to get.

boobs how you doing today lovely?

hope everyone else is ok today. I feel a bit odd today - not heard a peep from work so i guess that means i will need another sick note until they decide to grant me audience....(thats how it feels)

my towels have arrived. thats my excitement for the day. want to get on with another coat of paint now....cant while fitter is still fiddling about up there.

just had a bit of bad news re the roof - typical. fitter said while in the loft he noticed the felt is totally sagging, DDs roof is going mouldy so that expains that....called a roofing firm, ust had a quote to replace that felt at the edge....£600!!! wish id known this before i did garden and bathroom.....

im in limbo with work so feel i cant plan anything. I will be on half pay soon too. bugger.

OP posts:
ThatVikRinA22 · 19/03/2013 12:14

ed....cant wear anything underneath due to the fact they are rubbish and porous....

so its old undies that i dont mind getting painted along with the rest of me....i had a lovely serano red stomach last night.
it was quite fetching. Grin

OP posts:
EdwiniasRevenge · 19/03/2013 12:14

Oh and I do have one spot of confusion I need clearing up...but I may have been dreaming...

I thought we had a new thread. I thought I had posted on it to put it into tio. But now I can't find it. Was I dreaming?
