Oh I want a mug Envy

tee christmas name! Back! NOW!

SantaKissedBonkeyMollocks · 24/11/2012 21:48

And shakey it does look fab!

DreamySleepyNightySnoozySnooze · 24/11/2012 21:50

Has MaryZ convinced you it's too early for Christmas names Tee? Glad you're feeling better, and that you've had, er, a good evening!

Shaky, your conservatory looks so cosy and stylish. I wish I had one. I love the sound of rain on the roof. Envy

Empress, you were lovely on that thread, one of the few who didn't jump on the band wagon of OP bashing. If it is real, then hopefully the op will understand what's gone on thanks to you.

Hope your Dp is off the twatbench soon State, and your dc's are better behaved tomorrow!

YankTeeDoodleDanTee · 24/11/2012 21:53

I'm kinda enjoying this name, Bonkey. Sorry to be a traitor to the cause. Grin

How are you Dreamy? Do you want me to hold the baby? ::begs::

DreamySleepyNightySnoozySnooze · 24/11/2012 22:21

He's great thanks Tee, I'm just about to feed him (hot water bottle at the ready for my poor nipples after!). Do you want me to give you a shout at 4am when he wakes up?

I don't think our health insurance is going to cover the Osteopathy. :( Hopefully we'll be able to use some savings to pay for it, as everyone I've spoken to who has experience of it says how much of a difference it makes. I hate to think he's in pain, and I would love to be able to feed him without it bloody hurting my nipples!

StateofConfusion · 24/11/2012 22:28

I think its a reasonable place to sulk off to, she is a mw after all and that conservatory looks so so inviting :)

I love the new name tee

dreamy I really hope something helps soon, ill be awake around 4am for the hourly pee, ill give him a cuddle!

I've just had a bit of a funny turn, calling my mw tomorrow, felt very hot all of a sudden, then dizzy, then sick, then desperate for a drink and food, so had toast and a banana and then the same again feel a bit better now but I think I'm going to head off to bed as I'm feeling shaky, had this with ds once but it was July and very HOT, dp has had the heating on all day... Hmm who knows, anyway mw tomorrow!

YankTeeDoodleDanTee · 24/11/2012 22:35

Sounds like low blood sugar, state. Have you had a GTT for GD?

dreamy if I'm up, and I often am, I'll be glad to have him!

StateofConfusion · 24/11/2012 23:21

I have, had GTT in september all came back well within normal, strange thing is I'd ate well today, and just had an hour nap, I'd have understood had I been really busy and hungry, will ring MW first thing tomorrow.

Did you have your iron levels checked state? Are you taking iron tablets?

giraffesCantFlyLikeReindeer · 25/11/2012 00:02

Hello. Just home from a ceilidh - danced 2 dances and now my lungs are fucked!

You could call it "bonkeybracelets"?

showtunesgirl · 25/11/2012 00:17

Right that's it. Done and dusted. DD's first birthday party and DH's 34th all in one day. I have cooked for England and now I'm knackered.

giraffesCantFlyLikeReindeer · 25/11/2012 00:59

I did the dashing white sargent and the slosh!! Grin Chest and shoulders ache and am wheezing and coughing my guts up! I wanted to dance so badly - I love ceilidhs and the disco music was fab! I should have stayed at home, but had already paid for ticket and it was a charity night. Plus I wanted to show off that I fitted in to my dress now have lost 2.5stone.

show I am impressed!!

showtunesgirl · 25/11/2012 01:20

Things that I made for DD's party:

A cake spelling out her name made from individual molds
Lemon drizzle cake
Vegan chocolate, lime and rum cake
White bean and roast garlic dip. DSis made an enormous focaccia to go with this.
Egg sandwiches - home baked bread
Tabbouleh - DSis made this
Butternut squash and cheese pasties

Things I made for DH's party:
Butter chicken
Chickpea and mushroom curry
Goan style lentil curry
Rice

13 people ate the latter and we all sat down and crammed round our extending table and tucked in.

At DD's party, the flat was rammed. DD wouldn't stop eating either today and ate a hell of a lot of her cake which was basically made from blueberry muffin mix which I know she loves.

This is why I'm tired as I spent all of today and last night cooking everything from scratch and now I need to wind down enough to sleep!

YankTeeDoodleDanTee · 25/11/2012 09:28

Showy I may have to go lie down after reading that list and I've only been up for an hour!

Today is operation move the books. If I don't return by lunch, call in the bloodhounds and a search party...

StateofConfusion · 25/11/2012 09:40

I've not had any bloods since about 25wks shaky no reply from my mw, will keep trying though, I do feel better today after a good sleep but I'm being cautious.

show glad dh and dd had a lovely day, that sounds some glorious food!

Were meant to be off to the uks 3rd biggest christmas market today, dd isn't right though and I feel pathetic, I may dust off the maclaren strap her down and have something to lean on, dp won't approve though!

DreamySleepyNightySnoozySnooze · 25/11/2012 10:21

Wow, show! That is impressive!

Baby skipped the 4am feed, and woke at 7.30! Grin Unfortunately I've hardly slept all night. :( Dh was out training, and didn't come to bed til about 3am, and I just can't sleep when I know he's going to come in and wake me up. Grrr.

Hope you're ok State. I had a funny turn in Sainsburys when I was pregnant. GTT was fine, and iron levels were good, so it was just one of those annoying pregnancy things I suppose. Hope you get in touch with your MW.

Shaky, you seem to have a puddle in your conservatory! Wink

YankTeeDoodleDanTee · 25/11/2012 11:40

I have returned from completing Phase 2 of the great book organisation of 2012.

Phase 3 on hold until I can get the new bookcase put together.

::falls over::

StateofConfusion · 25/11/2012 21:34

How's it going tee? All my books are lonely and boxed in the garage as when we moved here we knew it wasn't forever and it was a case of leave what we don't need boxed, I miss them though.

Feeling more human today, but crikey are my legs tired, had a nice wander at the christmas market but i realised I HATE crowds! Dd has a rotten cough and was up most of last night but dp dealt with her thank goodness, but tonight she sounds awful, may be a trip to the GP first thing I think!

SantaKissedBonkeyMollocks · 25/11/2012 21:45

State Both ds and me have the buggering cough! Its awful! Good to know your feeling better!
I hate crowds too. I avoid them as much as possible!

I am brutal with my books :( I have too be, we have no space - t'is why i love my Knidle so much!

DreamySleepyNightySnoozySnooze · 25/11/2012 21:55

Ds1 has the cough too. :( He really wanted to see 'the big truck' though (he loves trucks), so we went to the shopping centre to see the Coca cola truck. He couldn't stop staring at it! He's feeling rotten now though, didn't want any dinner so he's gone to bed dosed up on calpol.

SantaKissedBonkeyMollocks · 25/11/2012 22:02

Theres so much going round this year!

I haven't has a week where i have been compleatly well since the middle of Oct. Always seems to be something!

Hope your ds is better soon Dreamy .

DreamySleepyNightySnoozySnooze · 25/11/2012 22:05

Thanks Bonkey. Think he'll probably be staying home from school tomorrow, as he's coughing away in bed and he's red hot. I'm sure it won't be long before he's sick. Hopefully he'll fight it off quick!

EmpressOfTheMadBoxOfFrogs · 25/11/2012 22:24

DD and I have the cough too Hmm

Loved the pic of you and DS1, Dreamy. I hope he's better soon.

I need a Christmas name, any ideas creative Puddlehumpers?
