I now declare this topic.... THE NEW PUDDLE!!!!!!!!!

[EmpressOfTheSevenScreams]

With thanks to SPSFanjo for handing it over.

Everyone's invited to our Puddlewarming party!!!!!!!!!!

Haha I thought 'stock' was a typo! So are you selling cable tie bracelets now?

Screamy

I hadn't thought about cable tie bracelets, hmmm.....must be a good profit margin on that!

I just got some 'Fifty inspired' charms, if they don't go they will all go on other things individually. I have had 3 requests for them since I started so what the hell!

bonkey I read 50 shades, its utter shite and very frustrating, 'my sex' anyone? BUT I LOVED IT and didn't put the 3 books down. Its shit, but good shit

I know a few people who wanted 50 shades themed anklets with a little bell on, its all good for business hey bonk btw everytime I think I've decided what to order you post more beautiful things and I'm undecided again!

I am a VERY happy pregnant lady sainsburys has reeces peanut butter cups, pieces and nutterly for 29p each!

Phew. Only good erotic fiction allowed her in The Puddle!

here

I read it too, also had to read all three to see what happened...and your right, its shit but its addictive shit!

State I'm sorry .

Oh dear, i have a incredibly tired MiniBonkey :(

Roll on bedtime!

Oh dear. How old is MiniBonkey?

LL has been and gone and was lovely. I don't know why I am always so scared of when he visits.

He's 4, just started school. This week is his first full week. So far he has had Weds off so we have had a midweek break.

He is curled up on the sofa with a blanket watching Rastamouse. I think he may be in bed by 6!

Visits and things like that always seem so much worse in your head than they actually are. Glad it went ok :)

Rastamouse is wicked! AIBU to have now turned it on so that I can watch it? Oh and 11 month old DD is watching it too.

YANBU

I freak out too shaky when ours visits when he wants to keep us as tenants way more than we want to keep this house --nightmare neighbours--.

Mine are the same bonkey since starting yr1 and nursery 6pm they crawl up stairs, usually arse around a bit but it wouldn't be them if they didn't, but they like a good 13/14hrs a night.

I'm officially at that pregnant and can't stop thinking of food stage --hides huge dairy milk bubbly and giant bag of jelly tots--- and craving chocolate like a mad women!

We've split up.

It's been brewing for some time but it was still pretty painful on both sides. I'm staying with a friend while I flat-hunt.

I'm going to look after DD three nights a week while XW's at work.

I'm a bit numb. I might not post much in here for a while.

As you were.

Oh Empress :(
I hope your ok. Big snuggles!

We are here if you need us!

Oh empress lovely, we are all here if you want to talk, rant or cry. Thinking of you xxx

Oh shit. Hugs Empress.

Thank you

Oh Empress I'm so sorry. {{{Empress}}}

::pours coffee and adds booze to Empress' cup::

Morning everyone.

Thank you all of you.

Fuck knows what's going on atm but I'm certain I'll want to talk at some point.

Take care empress and whenever you need anyone come snuggle in the puddle.

My whooping cough jab has killed my arm I believe, the pain in my shoulder is constant! Rang the drs to check and they said as adults have more muscle it can be quite painful, even walking hurts I have to kind of hold my arm!

Dps just been signed back off work the knee op he had has made things worse and he's in agony, his consultants encouraging him to leave entirely (self employed builder) as they think this is it now, they'll never resolve the issue! He's gutted he loves working and even when home suposedly resting he has little projects he tinkers with, whilst sitting down. His job really does define him. He's only 26 :( its all down to a hip wasting disease he had at 4yo, so now our dcs are being pulled in for tests as despite always being told it is Not genetic, there's been 2 reported cases.

We'll be ok, great LL who's chilled about HB etc and luckily the car we brought for imminent dc3 fitting in is cheap to run.

anyone?

I'm really sorry Empress. We're here to help you get through this. Come here to shout, cry, laugh - whatever you need to do.

Your poor Dh State. :-( Is there any way he can stay in the trade but in a less physical role? A project co-ordinator type thing maybe?

You lot are so lovely. I really, really appreciate it. Thank you.

On the way there now. We're going to talk when she gets back from work. It's not realistic for me to move out until finances are sorted and maybe by that time we'll have found a better way to live together. I don't know atm.

State, I'm so sorry. On top of everything else too. Would Screamy's suggestion work?

Well crap. My step-uncle has just been diagnosed with stage 4 leiomyosarcoma. It is a very rare form of soft tissue cancer.

Nothing really they can do at this point but make him comfortable. I haven't seen him in years since I live in Belfast, but I always liked him.

Stupid bastard disease...

That's shit Tee, I'm so sorry.

< brings and some of State's rocky road>
