Pixi!!!!! Well done you!!!!

Take all the help!!

Thats where I went wrong,I got all antsy saying I can manage,when actually I could have done with some help and struggled and made myself feel ten times worse.

Awww Rubester - 10 like Tomster

He will really enjoy the Reebok stadium - its quite an impressive building.

Dont forget he has to change his money into pounds, shillings and pence when he gets through border control on the edges of Lancashire. Oh yes and he needs a passport we have got electricity now up here so he should be fine.

Afternoon everyone. I'm just on my lunch break at work (well 10 minutes) and thought I would pop in and say hi.

Pixi - you made me laugh out loud with your description of singing away and ignoring peoples looks. I get it all the time when I am with the DTs and with DD in her buggy, people look at me like I am mad to have three children (let alone your brood!). If they stare for too long, I just say hello and grin broadly at them........

frumpygrumpy · 26/03/2008 13:10

Trips darling xxx ....well, this is the bit you move forward from. Whatever the doctor says on Friday at least you will have more clarity. Thats got to be better than this no mans land you are in right now. I'll be waiting. We all will. On a big pile of cushions in the living room. Keep focussed sweetheart, stay strong xxxxxx.

Pixi, I struggle to let go and accept help too. Like you, it goes against the grain. It is the sensible thing to do right now though so, even if it doesn't feel great, do it. Loving the singing in the rain btw

LG&T, poor Beau, is he on the mend? How many weeks illness are you on now? Our house seems like yours, we just go round and round with illness all the cold months, every year. Must be gone soooooon........

The doctor said I have flu. Explains why I feel so bad. Couldn't sleep at all last night, clock watched and sweated the night away sheets soaking. Took a heavy period this morning (all over the bed). Stripped the bed and took it down to shove it in the machine. Had to lie on the floor until I had stopped shaking. I really need to eat. Haven't had anything but water, cups of tea, Lucozade and a couple of mouthfuls of potato since Saturday. Tried soup last night but nearly vomitted it up again. Feel very queasy and dizzy. DP made the bed up again and is being a lot nicer. I think he knows I'm not kidding.

ruby, what a talented young man! I think if he wants to go then that says it all. You will worry but if he's keen then you can only go with his lead. Hope he has a great time. I laughed when you talked about evacuations. My DP's dad was evacuated in the war. He spent a year away from his family.

shabster · 26/03/2008 13:18

awwww Frumpster -

Rubester - it will be of your DS - I know what you mean about being worried though. Tomster went to PGL last year and is going this year with school - only in Shrewsbury but it involves water, heights, camping out etc etc. BUT he wants to go so much - what is this neurotic older mam to do?

frumpygrumpy · 26/03/2008 13:20

ruby, I so desperately want to feel a little better. I don't a bit. Thats the hard bit because I'm looking at the days and wondering when life will feel ok again........ DP is doing his bit but the place is in need of my hands. Stuff is piling up and I hate it.

oooggs · 26/03/2008 13:20

pixi - well done - something I'm not good at either

triplets - thinking of you

only 3 weeks til I'm back to work after 14.5mths off

HarrogateMum · 26/03/2008 13:21

FG, look after yourself, it sounds blardy awful, think people are getting something similar here, people are dropping like flies!

frumpygrumpy · 26/03/2008 13:22

Thank you Shabster xxx. I managed a shower sitting down this morning so I should smell a little better.

HarrogateMum · 26/03/2008 13:22

PS Ruby - your DS sounds fab

shabster · 26/03/2008 13:22

Rubester - after me going on about how 'cosmopolitan' we are in Bolton, with electricity and everything.....thought you would appreciate this. From my alcove I am just watching the coalman deliver a couple of bags of nutty slack to my elderley neighbour it's like a scene out of Oliver Twist.

oooggs · 26/03/2008 13:23

oh fg you have got it bad hope you feel better soon

shabster · 26/03/2008 13:23

Frumpster - I care not if you pong

frumpygrumpy · 26/03/2008 13:23

Ooogs, that will be hard! What are you going back to?
