Hi all. I am having the best of days. Its yuk weather here today, DS1 is being very loud and pushy today
I have been awake since 5am, DS1 wakeup and would not be quiet and woke the other 2 up. DD is now sleeping and ds2 is not far off. That if DS1 does not wake her up/stop him going to sleep. I dont know what has got into him the last 2 mornings. He waking up very early and then waking everyone else up

JARM, you have been busy you have put me to shame
I have just done what is needed to be done and thats it.

Tortoise, Can I have some of theat chocolate cake please. I am in a choclate mood but dont have any I am going to get DS1 some lunch, maybe that will shut him up.

Hope you all have a good afternoon. I just want to sleep

TortUREoiseChamber · 22/10/2006 13:06

Awww HN. The weather is yuk isn't it?!
Hope DD gets to go to sleep. Can you tell ds1 if he is quiet and lets them sleep then he can have/do xxxx later? A little incentive!

TortUREoiseChamber · 22/10/2006 13:09

Ive just ordered my Mums xmas present! Thats 3 ordered last night for dc and mums ordered today!

theHAUNTEDhazelnut · 22/10/2006 14:17

I got kicked off line Hope its not going to be like this all day. I cant get on MSN either

I like to wrap pressies up too Don't know why but I always think of the person who has to unwrap it. I think the hardest thing I have had to wrap was been chairs for my DC last Xmas. I found the best way to wrap them was to leave the bag on them, then the paper did not brake so much when you went to pick them up. I would like to know why they don't put the clear plastic sheets on the boxed bits now. I know its good to see whats inside a box, but why leave the window to the box to be fully open. Now they leave it out, its so easy to brake the wrapping paper as there is nothing to stop it anymore.

I have let DS1 watch what he wants to watch on TV, its keeping him quiet at the mo. The only thing is, its a robot wars video, he tends to act out the same thing with his toys and ends up braking them

DD is just waking up now Ds2 is fast asleep.

QuootieSpookypie · 22/10/2006 14:28

I keep getting booted offline...

Shall I do the towel rail?

TortUREoiseChamber · 22/10/2006 14:29

Go Q, go Q, go Q!!!

HN glad DS is watching tv quietly!

QuootieSpookypie · 22/10/2006 14:30

ah, go on then....

be back in abit then

QuootieSpookypie · 22/10/2006 14:34

cant decide where to put it....

theHAUNTEDhazelnut · 22/10/2006 14:54

I would put it on the walk Q lol

It needs to be near a heat source so it can help keep the towels dry.

Its really slow today with loading pages too.

Ds2 is now awake. He seems happier now hes had a little sleep. I am just hoping that DS1 stays asleep tomorrow morning and does not get into a bad habit of waking up early in the morning.

TortUREoiseChamber · 22/10/2006 15:04

On the walk HN?? pmsl!
Yes best near a heater or by the sink so you don't drip everywhere!!

HN glas ds2 is bit happier now.Least no school for a bit.

QuootieSpookypie · 22/10/2006 15:10

only one place it can go - back of door. But it cant go in the middle, as its too wide and the hande is there...

theHAUNTEDhazelnut · 22/10/2006 15:18

lol tortoise wall would be so much better, but I see Q has said its a door anyway lol

Its nearly as good as your glas lol
