West London Thread August continued...

[Kewcumber]

shiny new thread to sully.

Hi, oxo

Ros,
Would you like to come over tomorrow morning? Dd normally sleeps in the afternoon.

SJ,
Wed morning is good for me.

Foxie,
Can I use your comments about the products on the site?

Btw, I texted you.

Mellow - 'course you can!

I will keep the suki eye cream, as I think its a lot richer than Clinique, so I'd like to try it out. Thanx though

xoxo - know how you feel! Am also a bit rubbbish at keeping up on mumsnet but am more determined this time round! I also only go on this thread!!

mellow and fox - see you thurs!

Wish I had a garden big enough to house a playhouse, if we built one there would be no garden!

hey west londoners
coming to the xmas meet-up???

I know i am shite at coming to the w london ones but am making up for it by organising the xmas one!

We need a few more to make the venue viable, would so love to meet you all (think I am coming in sept to w london if it is still on btw)

sign up here!

Mellow - Weds morning's perfect, thanks

Yingers and OXO I know what you mean, each time I log on the conversation's moved in so fast, hard keeping up isn't it?

Mellow - I've remembered I've got a hospital appt tomorrow so don't know when I'm going to be around. What about Weds or Thurs?

SJ - Same applies, am free Weds & Thurs

Ros,
Are you around Wed morning?

good morning all

what dreadful grey uninspiring morning!
must kick self to go for a walk

It really does seem like October doesn't it?

Morning all.

Have switched the CH on.

Mellow, I think I'd like the carrot serum (?) if you have one. Are you free this weekend? BTW, the eczema is completely gone!

dd just wants to curl up on my lap and such her thumb
was planning on popping to Richmond partly to get some paints and paper and other craft stuff for dd indoor activities, might just go to mothercare and see what they have

morning all, I've got my winter boots out today

Sfx - Mothercare have some craft sets in and so do Boots.

Mellow - I am free tomorrow am. Would you like to meet up then? Am happy to meet at either mine or yours, whichever's easier. Though ds does tend to get a bit possessive of his toys if other children are around.

Think I might take ds to Syon Park this afternoon and go to the aquarium or the butterfly house if they're not too busy.

Hi all

Ros & Mellow - Why don't we meet up together on Weds am then as it looks like we're all free then?

Sushi - we lit a fire on Sat night it was so cold at our friends, a fire in Aug, shocking

Sushi,
I'm free this weekend. I'm glad to hear your eczema is gone.

I've sent you an e-mail.

Ooops, lost this thread for a while.

SJ and ros,
The weather does not look promising tomorrow. Would you like to come to mine if your ds don't mind playing with dd's toys?

Anytime from 10 am would be fine with me.

Lemonaid - how are you feeling?

Mellow, I've replied to your email.

and can I say again how awful and grey it is today!

we got a puzzle and some paint not forgetting the fairy wings

at least we are getting on with potty training, even with nappy she sits on the potty then looks puzzled she can't see itI have also been patted on the knee and told how well I am doing

That's funny sfx

We went to the Ealing Broadway Shopping Centre at lunchtime 'cos dd was whining all morning and ended up with two cans of baked beans and a bag of french beans.

I completely agree. It's a really miserable day.

Foxie,
I finally read The Small Island yesterday and I had a good cry afterward, partly to do with the mom giving her babe at the end and partly my depressed state (with the weather).

giving her babe away, i mean

sfx - you are doing well

Mellow - this weather is making me feel very negative too. I hate this type of weather Its so dark

Have you read any other Andrea Levy? Her other books are great too! I can't remember if I lent them to you or what LOL!! I still have your two pearls upstairs

Have just written to work asking to work 4 days (one from home) and am getting cold feet about returning to work. I've ask for a room and breaks to express milk in and I get the feeling no one has ever asked before - the whole ecpressing at work bit is making me feel very daunted.

I need a pep talk...

foxie - when are you going back? when I went dd was 1yr so I did not express just fed am/pm
about being the first someone has to i guess.

btw dd says well done when I am in the toilet

mellow am thinking of going to ealing maybe thu to meet dh for lunch. my friend moved meet up to friday, have not been there in ages
