Oh, you are all going to change names and I won't have a clue who anyone is for weeks and weeks

AnneOfAvonlea · 13/10/2008 13:37

Jas I don't really know but to be on the safe side i think i should change. I don't know how i will face him Tuesday when he picks the boys up. I was so angry that he left.

EV I have DS2 upstairs refusing to have a nap - I think that the time may have come to give it a miss, although when else will I get my cleaning done - arg

I have spent nearly 40 mins on hold at the
GP's trying to get them to change the date of DS1's last set of injections to the week prvious. I still dont have an answer. I do despair at the lack of communication within the NHS sometimes.

Washing is on the line
Been to the couriers

I am trying a cup of tea and then I need to:

Collect up library books, as we are off to the library after school

Jas · 13/10/2008 13:39

If it doesn't work this time I'm giving up!

Jas · 13/10/2008 13:41

It took me a while to work out Anne

I understand Tortoise It doesn't hurt to cover your tracks a bit tbh. I did have some posts deleted recently which gave my home town as I was feeling a bit overexposed, too.

Are you capable of resting at all GO?

grouchyoscar · 13/10/2008 15:20

No, I think I have delayed ADHD and an OCD

lucysmam · 13/10/2008 15:34

I am back, and confuddled!

I know who Anne is I think but kaplum???????

MIL has been and gone . . . relaying the message from my oh on her way out that oh has gone to BIL's to help him sort the house for when his gf gets out of hospital tomorrow. Not impressed at all!!!!! When I was in hosp for weeks after having the lo he wouldn't do anything for us & still won't. VERY GRRRRRRR!!!!

Whose lo was it dropping naps? Mine dropped them at about 14mo . . .& was a nightmare for weeks as soooooo tired, but bedtimes are now much easier & she's generally happier without the extra sleep

grouchy erm . . . maybe someone forgot to tell you . . . cleaning does not = resting!!!!

Lots of !!!!!!!!'s in here aren't there

tigger I'm thinking I've confuddled you & made you think it's lo's birthday. It's MIL's birthday tomorrow, lo's in January. Sorry about that

I have done . . . . . . . . a whole lot of nothing whilst MIL has been here. So now going to blitz living room I think including shite mountain paperwork ready for taking up & filing this week. It's very boring sometimes pottering around isn't it.

Think I need a more organised list of things to do tomorrow so I don't get soooooooooooo very very bored!

Anyways, off to find a babywipe to dust with & then pop toys away for 5 while I hoover. Catch you all in a while
