Lists for the Slatternly - May edition

[TrillianAstra]

Okay, I am clearly worrying way too much about this but there are only a few spaces left in the old thread!

(What do I think will happen if we finish without a new list? We'll just make a new one. Relax woman!)

Thanks to alicecrail for the title.

Please finish the old thread before starting on this one - there could be a prize if you are number 1000.

Good morning slattermly ones

Talking about pg bumps, when i was about 12weeks someone said to me "ooh, you are really getting a bump aren't you?" I have always had a pot belly and had actually lost half a stone with morning sickness, but what do you say to that?!

trillian good luck today

Morning everyone, when I had DD3, I proudly walked her downtown in her brand new pram, people asked whether I was minding for someone, when I replied that she was mine, they would say 'I didnt even know you were pregnant' including the chemist where I had bought all my iron tablets, steriliser,bottles etc. I went to WW with DSIS a couple of months later and I was heavier than the morning I had her, turned to my sis and said no wonder noone ever knew .

Thank you MM

Sun sounds good, can I pray for sun solidly from, say, tomorrow until at least Sunday?

I did indeed make it for 9. I actually left abut 20 minutes to cycle a mile and a half, so was there early.

Did about an hour and a half's learning/work, then got free coffee and toast (they don't pay for the trial but they will give you food). The cakes there are amazing. The woman who owns it has an awesome situation going on, she owns it and bakes the fantastic cakes at home and brings them in, but the cafe part is run by a manger so she dopesn't have to deal with the boring stuff.
