Trips - hopefully a good night's sleep will help. Try to sleep as straight as you can and maybe it'll be better in the morning. I'm left-handed too, and it's always that shoulder that starts hurting, specially when it's cold.

Now I really, really am going to do the ironing. Salsa classes start again on Tuesday and I will need some clothes!

I'm a leftie too!

Anyone else noticed a few other threads cropping up with D'y Ever or D'Ya Ever that are not multiple ones?

Triplets - his name was George Warner May and he was born in 1874.....I am not sure where but I know by the time th 1901 census rolled around he had left Deal and had moved up to Chesterfield (which is where I was born).

DD is sick today, she has been up in the night with a high temperature for a few days now, not done anything because she has been fine in the day, but last night her breaths were really shallow so I am taking her to the doctors today.

I have just thought of another thread title:

D'y ever wonder why your kids sleep in on a blardy week day?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHY?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They get up at 6.30am-7.00am at the weekends!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is it some sort of secret between wee ones?

Are they memembers of the Free masons?

Someone please tell me!!!!

inamuckingfuddle · 07/01/2008 09:11

morning all, having a gradual start to the working year, I have a meeting from lunchtime at a school near home, but have told work its all day how naughty!

HM hope DD is ok

largeginandtonic · 07/01/2008 09:41

Morning lovely ladies...

Ooogs it sounds ok to me, you will find it will be heavier after you have been on your feet too (which i'm sure is all the time). Try and rest as much as you can and if you get any bright red loss, pain or fever go to the GP. Love and Hug's to you.

Mars bugger on the school disaster, we had a fire here too. The bins outside were torched and took out some of the kitchens and the heating system for the pre school. Bloody yobs!

FG impossible tasks just bring you down but we still dont seem to stop ourselves setting them! I was madly thinking last night i how nice it would be to get up and make breakfast muffins before school. I mean wtf was i thinking!!!

Deal does sound nice, a house swap sounds like a good idea. Not sure we would fit in anyone's house though!!

frumpygrumpy · 07/01/2008 11:32

LG&T, you have hit the nail on the head. Impossible tasks. Of that I surely am queen, are you my king?

Tigger, my children, your children. Up early at weekends, have to be woken in the week Can you lie in a warm bath and reset the day?

HM, how is your DD?

Doris, hope your day is fabulous! Don't even peek in here, you can see us anytime

I am an awful mother

p.s. I have a little parcel of tablet for Kelly but haven't made it to the P.O. yet. Don't let her in please. Tell her we're decorating the hall, til say Thurdsay.

frumpygrumpy · 07/01/2008 11:41

Ooogs, you've maybe seen this but I thought it might help

frumpygrumpy · 07/01/2008 12:43

HarrogateMum · 07/01/2008 13:56

Trioand3 - I have non-id boy DTs, aged 3 and 2 months, and a DD aged nearly 14 months. There are, as Mommalove said, lots of ladies on here with BIG families too - Marsy, Piximon, Estar, LG&T all spring to mind (am I forgetting anyone?). There are several other triplet mums on here too - Triplets, Tripley Tigger and Tripletsandtwins (notice a theme?!).

Anyway - sit back and enjoy - I have stayed away from this thread over Xmas and NEw Year (stress has been my middle name) but even whilst lurking, the multiple mums have brought a smile to my face on many occasions!
