d`y ever wonder what life was like before Mumsnet?

[triplets]

Boring............you have all been my life-line........just wish we could all meet up occasionally, I could bring the trolley:)
Scrap my feeble first attempt, tired .........very tired............yawnnnnnnnnn

33yrs....................where have I gone wrong

Doing some late night shopping, really stuck for my mum, 83 and needs nothing, usually buy her clothes but she says she doesn`t want any.........help!

Any news of LG&T?

Hops just reading back I noticed you discussing height issues, please be sensitive, it upsets Shabs, my dear dear friend..................
btw I am 5`11

Wasted on my ma Rubes, she only gets out twice a week, in a taxi straight to the cafe, sits for an hour and cabs back.................every week.......whilst she is on her second pot of tea I run round getting her shopping!

Nice one ......................better get back to my shopping before the shop shuts.............................bonne nuit xx

Trips, same height as meee!! Do you wear heels then? dh is also the same height and really dislikes me being taller than him in heels.

hmm one of my friends is the same age or thereabouts as your mum, trips. Amazingly fit though - she comes to the wholesalers with me. Helped me lift a 40kg shelf into the car! I hope I am half as fit by the time I reach her age. Anyway, she got a kindle for her last Xmas pressies - does your mum read?

I'm up very early, dh has been snoring and I thought might as well come down and get some comping done. trimmed up yesterday, so the house is all festive now! Anyone else done there's yet?

Morning!

Evening girls................another blissful day in Peace Towers...............what is it about Sundays that brings out the worst in my house? Still feel grotty, kids hyper and dh as miserable as hell.Cant wait to get to my bed, shut them all out............ Hops, only wear heeled booots, fell for some black leather ones last year, knee high with buttons up the side, takes me to 62, lurve towering over dh:o He is bawling now at the boys, why don`t they ever learn, she has her ipod stuck in her ears, singing blardy Jedward tosh, she is off to Hammersmith on Tues night to see them. Its me who needs a treat

Morning girls xx

I am ignoring the hailstone that has been waking me up all night...and the fact that we have about an inch of frozen hailstone on the ground... I HATE WINTER!!

Now I'm lurgified! Fighting it all weekend, as it was the boys birthday, but finally had to give in yesterday evening and go to bed. Couldn't go to work to today as feeling as if I have been hit by a mack truck! Hubby commented to me that the "Carrie" look isn't good on me, but has come home from work to make sure I'm ok.

Noo to lurgy's Bloody season of it. Hoping we stay free for a few weeks.

I am a short arse, 5'4 if i stand on tip toes. Dh is 6' so i am mostly heels. Flipflops on summer though and he laughs at me

I am still farcking here. The head is actually getting higher. I see the consultant today. Who knows < rolls eyes > what will happen. I just want him out 40+5 today.

Trips - Lews parcel has arrived and has been 'sent to Father Christmas' - thank you sweetheart.

I've told all of you - G&T's baby is waiting till the early hours of Friday morning to make his appearance....

No, rubes lol, the Stephen King version, greasy lank hair and White face, combine that with red runny nose and bleary eyes and you have got the picture! [csad]. Mind you,despite the sneezing, coughing and headache, sitting here wrapped in a blanket watching Christmas movies is still better than work!

Thursday works for me Rubester 50 bleedin 5 - it was only last week when I was 17 and being dumped by the ginger pig!!

...........................evening girls, feeling slightly more human tonight, think I am on the mend. Went out today to try and do some xmas shopping, wanted stocking fillers came back with a t shirt for one of the boys and 4pts milk! Anybody got any ideas for 14yr old boys?? Just in abit of shock, had sad news last week from my American penfriend of 47yrs her lovely mum died two weeks ago suddenly. Just opened up my box and another message from Karen, her brother died on Sat morning at home, its unbelievable. How strange life is..........
Becca has already trowelled on the eye make-up for tomorrows gig in London, I am trying verrrrrrrrrrrrrry hard not to say anything to her, feel as though we are always at loggerheads.
Went to the docs this morning, review meds, inc citalopram, down to 10mg every other day, feel not ready to come off completely, levels of stress here are constant.
So what is everyone up to for Christmas? I know I shouldnt be miserable but I am dreading it. Kids want a gang here on Christmas Day, everyone though is going their own thing this year which is fine by me. Dh is being shirty saying "oh why dont we forget it, Mummy doesn`t want to cook anyway" ....................bloody true after 33 years. Kids are not interested in sitting down with a roast, esp Becca, she hates trad food. So I suggested nipping over to Calais for a day when the kids break up, we have a free car ticket to use up, buy masses of prawns, cheeses, fizz and just sit and pick....................bliss, bloody bliss..................garlic mayo and crusty bread........dh said, " well I suppose that would do as a starter"
