Wasting - I have been making friends with all the loos in our house since Monday night, alot of people I know have a bug so probably that.

I can't wait until bathtime and pyjama time which should happen very soon. DH is going out tonight as I am feeling much better and he has been an absolute star with looking after DC's.

Shiney - have you weighed today?

wastingaway · 05/02/2010 17:20

Thanks. He's been off his food since the oral thrush started a fortnight ago, guess he's run down.

Think they're at Flamingo's.

VinegarTits · 05/02/2010 17:27

Had a bit of a tantrum on an ironing thread before

have had a shower and put some comfy clothes on (trackies) now, god i feel so much better, water is like therapy isnt it?

Sorry about your job Yank, look at this way, is wasnt meant to be, you probably would have hated it and you would have be underpaid and over experienced, something else will come up im sure

Sorry you had a bad day Bella, thank goodness its the weekend eh?

Wasting poor ds, hope is gets better soon

I need wine now soon

YanknCock · 05/02/2010 17:29

aww wasting....hope he feels better soon.

As I promised, I have kicked my arse into a better mood, helped greatly by making a WW recipe chicken/mushroom shortcrust topped pie for dinner. It said to use the scraps to make decorative leaves, but I did something else to cheer myself up. Will post a picture on my profile. Also did the cha cha in my kitchen in front of DS, who laughed hysterically.

wastingaway · 05/02/2010 17:37

Yank, I love it!

Vinny, I read the ironing thread with amusement interest.
I really want to iron.

Alicetheinvisible · 05/02/2010 17:39

Hello lovely ladies

Scan went really well, got loads of scan pics, and they have put me at 13+4 weeks, so nearly out of the rubbish first trimester

Lizzylou · 05/02/2010 17:39

LOve the COCK pie, Yank!
I love that photo of your DS in the Santa hat as well, he has a lovely cheeky look.

VinegarTits · 05/02/2010 17:44

shiney said she is banning me from ironing threads, i think its probably for the best

your fella is very yum devil, and such a big.....sax

YanknCock · 05/02/2010 17:44

Alice, fantastic news!

Lizzy, if I hadn't eaten the rest of the raw pastry scraps I could have fashioned a comedy knob too. Ah well, always next time. The pie was a hit, DH has requested we have it again.

VinegarTits · 05/02/2010 17:47

thats great news Alice, are you going to find out the sex?

bellavita · 05/02/2010 17:48

Great news Alice.

I think Shiney is avoiding our questions as to whether she has got weighed today. She is doing a !

Lizzylou · 05/02/2010 17:55

Alice, oh that's good news, a relief for you.

I am going to the gym straight after work tomorrow, I may have a go on that Powerplate thingy (or fat wobbler as my friend calls it). Only thing stopping me is that I've seen even seemingly slim people go on and their arses have wobbled all over the shop, what the heck will I look like??????

BitOfFun · 05/02/2010 17:57

Ooh, nice work on the hot musician, TDWP, veru exciting. If you were Shiney, I would be waiting for the punchline, but he might actually be normal

Have had a bit of a tricky day- no sleep at all last night with dd2 up a lot, and having a cold and snuffling too much to drop off, but I went to bed while she was at school. Have been running round after her and needed to venture out in public to buy her school shoes earlier because somebody has nicked her boots at school and she only has plimsolls otherwise. She has been a "challenge" this week, hence my relative absence on MN.

How is everyone else?

bellavita · 05/02/2010 18:00

I am tired, but I have no excuse really like you do.

YanknCock · 05/02/2010 18:04

BOF, yes, been missing you, sorry you've been having a tiring time. I might have a little something to cheer you up....check my profile pictures.

BitOfFun · 05/02/2010 18:08

Oh I LOVE the cock pie , fantastic!

VinegarTits · 05/02/2010 18:13

Haha Yank that is genius

What did your DH say?

YanknCock · 05/02/2010 18:15

VT, he just laughed and said I could tell 'the ladies' (what he calls you lot) that he 'enjoyed his cock pie, wasn't too salty'. We are purile and well matched.

Lizzylou · 05/02/2010 18:16

BOF, hope you have a chance to wind down soon, sorry it's been hectic for you.

DS1 has just said that I was fat, but only a little bit........not sure how to take that as he is whippet thin! He was blowing raspberries on my tummy. To be fair, it did wobble a fair bit.

Sorry you had such a bad week bof? do have vodka relaxation time sorted out for the weekend?

i dont get to have my childfree weekend again is it too early for wine?

MyCatIsABiggerBastardThanYours · 05/02/2010 18:22

Evening all. Today I have mostly been eating CRAP! Got on the scales this morning and had put on 2lb and instead of sensibly thinking it's probably just water retention or something I've eaten like a horse instead!

Such is life.

Loving the COCK pie Yank!

BOF - Hope DD2 is a bit (lot) easier tonight for you.

DS is a lot better today, although is currently fighting sleep even though he is desperately tired. DH is on bed duty so I'm not too stressed.

Someone give me some dieting motivation please. I have been hovering around 12st 13lb and 13st 2lb for bloody bloody months and it is getting to me! 2 weeks til the big 40 hits and I would really really like to be 12st 10lb.

she sounds very unpleasant Shiney, i will refrain from posting or might get accused of ganging again

bellavita · 05/02/2010 18:39

Your pie likes delish Yank as does the "cock"!

Shiney, that has tres amused me about the head's lunch! Do you and he get on?

I think working nearly all day Tuesday has done me in.

You have got to admit though Shiney, staying the same on the scales is good considering you had a couple of wobbles this week and also, the weight coming off will slow down too.
