Sorry for crap title, my first time

Roundup of today:

shiney, hope you and J have a wonderful weekend together.

Queen, yuck. I hated nearly every minute of my pregnancy. Seriously, if you search my name from about Jan-Aug 2009, it will all be me moaning about how much it sucks. Sympathy for you from another hyperemesis sufferer.

DIB, my stomach leapt a bit reading about your DS, how scary! Glad he seems to be ok.

Alice, your DS is very curled up in there and you've got a ways to go (sorry!) so wouldn't worry about bump size at all.

VT, I think you should prepare for the camping by ceasing all ironing now

BOF, what the hospital appt for? You ok? Hope you feel better!

ABF, hello and welcome! I also think of Carry On films when I see ding dong, DH has forced me to watch them as part of my education on what it means to be British

DI, I am jealous. Tell me next time it is 'dress like a pirate day'.

SAF, my mom believed in benign neglect and got two very self-reliant and capable children. I don't go for doorstop selling of anything, I have a very comprehensive sign that seems to be keeping people away and stuff out of the letterbox.

bitter, I'm sorry, but at your DS being a bottom-flasher!

GetOrf, so giving up diet coke makes you lose weight? Might have to try that one!

bella, glad the cake situation was sorted. I am jealous, I want ducks to come to my house. We just have the neighbourhood cat who leaves us dead stuff [boak]

Goober, yay for another pound off!

korma, flylady is the way forward.

Sazz, that doesn't sound too bad, 4lbs can come off in two weeks. Good job on all the exercise.

Jet, hello! You just reminded me to check my BMI, and I have JUST graduated from 'Morbidly Obese' to merely 'Obese'! Hooray!

Mitts, at least she is your XMIL

hells, good luck with the nits

ScreaminEagle, I'm another who joined late (though it's been nearly 6 months now!).

Norma, hope your DS's finger is ok!

Defluff, at 'yo homies' I feel 12 again.

Went to pick up DS at nursery today and was alerted to the possibility he may be developing chicken pox!! ARrggggghhhhhhhhhhhh I really really hope not, I've only been back at work a week!

My luck is seriously shit. On the positive side the nursery worker thought if he had it the spots would be showing up faster instead of the very gradual increase over the day. So either he doesn't have it and has some weird other rash thing, or he has a mild case, or it will be turning up with a vengence tomorrow.

Either way, it is wine o'clock, DH is going to Spar now to fetch some in.

Yay for Yank

Sympathies re: CP, DS1 has shingles and we are just waiting for DS2 to get CP, he's never had it.

traceybath · 30/04/2010 20:36

Lovely opener

Hows the job Yank?

wastingaway · 30/04/2010 20:36

Good post Yank.

Congratulations on being 'obese'.
Hope Ds is ok.

I forgot to say earlier how glad I was that everyone liked my shoes.
I am the habitual sock/Birkenstock combo girl, so your praise is high indeed.

traceybath · 30/04/2010 20:37

How did you get on at the Drs with ds1 Lizzy?

My ds's had chicken pox last year and were both quite poorly with it. Arthur was at the height of contagiousness with it when I had Bea which was rather stressful.

Now where is that wine?

DH came home traumatised. He went to the Spar and parked outside was a stretch hummer with 'at least 3 gaggles of women' (not sure how many that equates to in real numbers) and they looked like 'a travelling hooker circus' due to all wearing skirts barely covering arses and truckloads of makeup.

It is definitely shingles, she gave him some antivirals and had another GP look at him.
I think because he is so well in himself they are a tad confused by it all, to be honest.

Yank is Carry On your How to be British training.

New shoes.

Lizzylou · 30/04/2010 20:43

DH is dragging me off to bed

To watch Ashes to Ashes

Ah well, it's a start

Have a good evening lovely ladies.

Lets try very hard to be especially vacuous this evening, can we?

Night all

YanknCock · 30/04/2010 20:45

Job is ok but not what I want to be doing. Just saw the system I'll be training people on and it is utter crap, but I can't say more than that. I have to keep looking for other jobs too due to some news about mergers which will most likely mean us moving, and I don't want to commute any further than I already do.

wasting, I'm so pleased to be 'obese' without the 'morbidly' in front of it! Can't believe I hadn't check in ages, Jet's post reminded me.

YanknCock · 30/04/2010 20:46

wasting, I like those shoes too, they are very much something I'd wear!

No Sazz, I said Clarks is the only place I know of that DOES do half sizes! So if you are 6.5 too, where would you go for shoes to wear with a brown dress with cream flowers?

OP posts:
wastingaway · 30/04/2010 20:50

Sazzles, those are heels for me!

YanknCock · 30/04/2010 20:51

I will post a pic on my profile of me in the dress in question, and then will someone just find me some shoes? I need something for a wedding on the 15th in a 6.5!

BitterAndTwistedChoreDodger · 30/04/2010 20:51

Hellooooo.

How is everybody?

Loving the shoes.

Fleecy · 30/04/2010 20:55

Oh! Was the last thread deleted?

bellavita · 30/04/2010 20:56

Yank, fabulous round up - hope you are blighted with the pox

After my initial weight loss with the bread.. I seem to have come to a standstill. Will have to start exercising me thinks to shift the last tiny bit.
