DEM - are you OK?

DidEinsteinsMum · 12/05/2010 22:42

ah well you've all gone to bed or watching tv.
else the computer is playing up again. i am off to bed. for sleep.

Sleep well all, hope you wake refreshed. and days are good tomo.

but think that maybe i will get my above post removed.

DidEinsteinsMum · 12/05/2010 22:42

? no idea tbh

DreamsInBinary · 12/05/2010 22:45

Yes, you need sleep.

On the other hand, here if you want to chat.

DreamsInBinary · 12/05/2010 22:46

Have logged on if you need an ear/shoulder.

Am worried about you.

YanknCock · 12/05/2010 22:48

DEM, would wave that wand for you too if I had one. I don't know what's happened with DS, maybe I've missed something, but doesn't sound good. Do try to get some sleep.

Fleecy · 12/05/2010 22:57

Oh DEM, that sounds difficult. Your poor DS - and poor you. It's heartbreaking seeing your little ones upset

Speaking of which, DD and DS both a little ill today. Feel very pathetic as nothing I can do but give them lots of tlc and hugs.

Shred seems to be gaining in popularity - someone on here has started a trend! I am still too chicken to try

SaF - I'm a freelance copywriter too, think I chatted to Fluff about it before a few threads back? How strange! What sort of things did you do, and do you still do any?

That's what I love about it - you never know what's next and there's always something new to learn about!

You could try printing off stuff you've done and putting it into a portfolio then ringing round ad agencies in your area. Lots of agencies round my way employ designers but not copywriters and just use freelancers whenever they need someone.

If you don't have a lot of stuff, you could always make up some ads and mock up some design on the computer. Of course, this all takes time which is something in short supply no doubt

I am rusbbish at marketing myself too and reply entirely on people I already know!

Evening! Taken me ages to catch up!

DEM, missed your post, but hope you're ok.

Yank, what co-incidence, I've an unopened bottle of Fenugreek capsules and was wondering if you might want it! FB message me your address and I'll get it posted.

I'm still ill unfortunately, but am going to go to the docs in the morning. I've typed up a list of my problems to take with me as I still can't speak.

DS had a nice day, til bedtime, when he cried for the better part of two hours and needed a blimmin' feed to help him settle.
Think it might have just been too stimulating a day.

And with that, I'm off to bed. Mwah!

DreamsInBinary · 12/05/2010 23:42

Mwah!

Night all

BitterAndTwistedChoreDodger · 12/05/2010 23:44

Hello,

I am obviously doing my usual trick of signing on just as everybody goes to bed.

I have read all the posts, cba to do a catch up, but do want to say,

DEM, anytime you want a human shield, just ask

Defluff, you are very perceptive, but I think you are reading the wrong signs.

I gave up a well paid interesting career willingly.

I have resentment, but the things I resent are

a) doing a mind numbing job that I am massively overqualified for.

b)Having to work at all when I would rather be home playing peekaboo.

Yes, I would like to go out on a date with my husband sometimes, but that's not a biggie.

And repeat: I. Like. Cleaning.

(That aside, send me all the squeezes you can spare, they will never go to waste.

Saf, we haven't decided on a 'code' for tomorrow.

Can I say that I will have the 'Dexter' DVD on the table in front of me (it's red and white) and DD has a stripe bruise on her face and her eyes mostly point in opposite directions.

VinegarTits · 13/05/2010 00:22

mate came round and we drank 2 bottles of wine and watched bridget jones the edge of reason

sorry i bailed on the bnp thread larry, sidetracked by alcohol

Morning

DEM - sorry, I didn't see what you wrote, but am sending you a mahooooosive hug and a squeeze today.

A beautiful day here - sun is shining.

Yogga brekka with strawberries, veggie curry for lunch (should have been chilli ) and umm same for tea!

Oh flip, I have just realised I have forgotten to order icecream and ice lollies from Tesco - shop comes this afternoon.

MitsubishiWarrioress · 13/05/2010 07:37

DEM.... not sure what went on last night but sorry as it doesn't sound too good. Is there anything I can do? I am working away from home today and tomorrow but should be child free at some point at weekend I could come through to B'ton and we could meet for a natter and a coffee..? Take care sweetie, you have been so fab and lovely and supportive for me I hate to think of you not doing so good. ( ) x

Jet suddenly thought about your shins yesterday. Just watch yourself for a day or so, it could be shin splints (ouch) so just don't over do it. Very painful and need rest to heal. Very brisk walking can be just as cardio vascular and puts less impact stress on your legs. But bloody well done you You are amazing and I can't wait to meet you.

Helloooo to all else..

Tea anyone? Coffee? Just opened a new packet of boasters too....mmmmmm yum!

Shiney I am laughing so much about you sending the card to yourself I'm concerned about my water works! Simple things tickle me....

DreamsInBinary · 13/05/2010 08:37

I hate AB's - I know they do their job, but they make me feel so run down.
