D`y ever wonder how we managed without the shag pile?

[triplets]

Well...............?

Grr at the old people in Starbucks today saying "well they are beautiful children, but I'm glad they're not mine". Well I'm glad too, because they'd have a miserable old bat like you for a mum and not me (my muttered response).

Double grrs at all the "you've got your hands full comments" I had to endure, esp at the one from the chugger (charity mugger) collecting for Oxfam, who could see me weighed down with bags/children/buggy/DT1 screaming her head off and still wanted to stop me.

Poorly DS1 couldn't even muster any enthusiasm for birthday cake so we're saving it for tomorrow in the hope that it'll have blown over and not be a full blown cold.

As for Valentine's day, well DH did send me a card, I made roast but he's too far away to enjoy it. Tomorrow evening we have a house to view, and Sat evening we have the grocery shopping....romance is dead in the pixi household.

FG glad to see you back, you've been missed.

Mars, if I don't get another chance to talk to you, I hope everything in Jamaica goes as well as it can.

Triplets a real friend would have taken a minute to consider whether to actually send an email like that before pressing the button. A real friend would have just deleted it after getting it off her chest without you ever being the wiser that she'd been annoyed. I'd ignore her email and not let it bother me, some people you are better off without.

Shabby and Triplets, please try not to let the other thread upset you. Some lucky people have never experienced loss and cannot empathise, one day they too will experience the moment when you want the world to stop and know your pain.

pixi, I remember walking with my DD1 and DT1 in the double buggy and DT2 in a sling on my chest and getting the "ooh, how do you cope, rather you than me". Eventually I managed to smile like Mona Lisa but jeez it pissed me off. (1) I 100% love my family, (2) I have no choice.

Thanks piximon - Not been as angry as I was last night for years. I sat here with my headphones on, sound up full volume, rod stewart squalking his bloody head off.

If the woman who posted the message that maddened me had been in this room I would have been sending her to her own funeral

OMG thats made me have a sweaty moustache now!!

Thin I am going to enjoy it here! My twins are 5, identical girls and also have an8 year old boy. Thought life would start getting easier but actually getting harder byt the minute!!! Am fed up of people saying how lucky I am - I KNOW I am lucky to have 3 healthy children but they have NO IDEA how hard it is as they all have the regular 1 or 2 kids. Have a friend who is expecting twins and feel I have been really unsupportive as I can't lie and tell her it will be easy! I will be supportive once they come though and will turn up at her door at feed times, bath times and all the other times that you physically need an extra hand. Look forward to chatting . PS am envious of mangoes - I have spaniel's ears!!!

OOOOhhhhh poo! I had to go back to that other thread didnt I. The woman who keeps posting on it is called madamez - what a richard head she is. I did my 'I am very angry at you' voice that I use for my kids.

shabster, step away from the thread!!! There really is no reasoning with some people, don't let some ignorant stranger upset you. Thank god most people do have more sense.

Step away from the thread. Step away from the thread!

Shabster, tis true, the best way to uphold your belief is to state your opinion and walk away. Hold up your head and walk, don't go back. She is entitled to her opinion but its hurtful to you and to Triplets. Walk away honey. I've read your posted story, its heartbreaking. xxxx

pop, have some bubbly, I persuaded DP Shabster, here is a stiff one for you, fnar fnar.

tsk tsk MommaPoshBird! But I know what you mean.

There's a woman near me with 9 month old triplet girls. They are so gorgeous!!!!!!! I think I'm stalking her. Will tell her about here next time I see her (although she may think I wish to stalk her in cyberspace as well)

God how Ive missed you all, must be all of 6 hours. Fighting to keepmy sagging chin up, something has got into me today and I have that sinking feeling, but ......I havent cried yet, so that is good. Just sooooo fed up, fed up with that friend(no further correspondence) fed up with that madamwhatshername on the other thread that I am now going to ignore, fed up with my aching joints, fed up that my washing machine cannot be repaired until the 25th and very fed up with DH,just one day a year it would have been nice to have been made to feel like a woman again, abit of fuss, a meal, even a takeaway.........grrrrr
Just spent two hours ironing, wrists aching and feel sad, deep down I know what it is, going to the cemetery this morning, oh God I hate it..............think I must work on getting to that meet up! Shabster make me laugh please?

Mars was here at 2046. She's never here at 2046. Only ever post-midnight. I am worried about her. Girls, lock up your men, hide your tassles and put on every negligee that you own!

Triplets, you have had a shit day. Truly shit. Shut the door on it please and try to unwind for a while. You probably need to cry. Darling, if I had done half of what you have done thus far I would be a messy rag in the gutter. You have held up beautifully. We love you. All the other arseholes don't matter xxxxx.

Come on triplets in you get

Don't go looking at that thread now.

Well done Em, tis just what that lovely girl needs.

Now you have made me cry................you lovely lot xx

Oh help ma boab! Momma, don't you go making more babies!!!!

Triplets, you stay strong. You know there isn't another thread that talks more sense than ours. Now for all our sake, get into that bath and don't come out until you've cried yourself inside out.

Night darling, sleep peaceful if you can, Matthew is still with you, you just can't see him. And for heaven's sake wear the robe, he can see you! xxx

Hi ladies!!!

Haven't posted much as my mum is staying at the moment (for four weeks )and doesn't approve of me spending time on the 'net... also a big reminder of why we live in different hemispheres!!

I shouldn't complain, though...it is fantastic having extra hands around and my dinner cooked for me and my house cleaned...just suddenly very close quarters for two people who haven't seen each other in over 2 years...

Anyhoo...my boys had their first shots today . I think it was harder on me than them . They are sooo cute at the moment that it's making the sleepless nights somewhat bearable!!

Triplets - sorry you've had such a rubbish day. You enjoy that bubble bath!!

Mars - (you media star!) I promise to have my homework done SOON!!

OK getting looks from mum...better go!

funny how we all revert to childhood roles when parents are around... (I'm not the only one who does that, am I???)

Will have to love you and leave you DH is asking to go on here, could happily wrap it round his neck atm, thank you all for your lovely words, need to get some sleep, xxx
