D'y ever wonder how many multiple mums are pregnant......

[shabster]

Hope I have done this right.....

it's all rubbish then, thanks MUM! Funny the snippets of info from your past that you keep and other more important things that you don't keep!

I believe carrots will make me see in the dark even though I wear contacts/glasses.

I believe if you don't clean your ears you will be able to grow potatoes in there.

I do look out the window on Christmas Eve and listen for distant bells. This one I love. I ain't ever giving that one up.

Evening all,

I have heard the one about not eating before swimming . . . but not the bath !!!
I would probably believe it i still salute magpies

what do think of this . . . . DD1 went on school trip last Thurs, to localish science museum. DD1 and DD2 both mixed race. DD1 quite shy, not really at school but sometimes. They are year 6 primary (11). ok thats the background.

On the bus they pass poster of monkeys in a band, girl who is known to be a bit silly/naughty says to her "oh look DD1 there is the rest of your family" one girl laughs other say thats racist etc. Teachers over hear. DD1 not offended just says shut up XXXX your not funny etc

Im as hell, say to DD1 wait till I see XXXX or her mother. DD1 says no, no mum dont say anything, mighty embarrassed of any confrontation. So I agree to not say anything.

Teacher training day fri and mon, so back today, head phones to say re incident, it has been dealt with, XXXX missing lunch times letter of apology, after speaking to XXXXdoesnt think it was said in a racist way, XXXX just thought she was being funny, parents called in. They take it seriously, i am happy with the way its been dealt, but 11 saying things like that, surley that is meant as racist ???

Teachers hear,

sorry surely

rougue teachers hear ignore, meant teachers hear comment on the bus

Evening girls - [mithered to death emoticon]

Our landlord is selling our house!!! We have rented it for 9 years and have been so very happy here. He has give us 6 weeks notice cause I explained we are going on hols on Saturday. Ashamed of myself to say I cried when he told us. Our heads are up our bums. We may have the chance to rent a nicer house over the road so fingers crossed everyone.

I was very sad until my godsons daddy (2 doors down) said ' Shabbs this is just a pile of bricks - you have lived through the deaths of two of your sons....I wouldn't have had the courage to do that. Everything will be good.'

So...there is nothing monetary to be gained from cancelling holiday. We are going - end of story.

Took tom to see Lewster. Came home with 4 loads of washing, a pile of ironing and a pile of wet clothes. Em was very tearful today - she is loosing quite a lot of blood, hasn't got a massive appetite. We talked together and she said its nothing to do with Lewis she is in love with him! She said Danny is a star and she adores him. She said she just feels drained and tearful. I told her she should scream, cry and shout feck off to everybody??? Not very medical but I think it did the trick - she almost wet herself laughing

Just another day in paradise really!.....

Think I have post natal depression - well Im blaming it on the mighty Lewster.

Oh my piggin' god - had enough today.

Oh Shabby that's crap news just before you are about to go on hols. I hope you can get the other house sorted before you go so that you can enjoy your holiday without worrying about house hunting.

Ta Merly - you know something love....even if we dont get the house sorted NOTHING will spoil my holiday. It has been a hard fight this year to get there ....NOTHING and I mean NOTHING will spoil it. I need to be in the hot sunshine, drinking and eating too much and in my Greek 'families' company.

Will have a 'talk' to my boys tonight and my Nana - they have never let me down before no matter how low down I get......I keep reminding myself - no one is ill, no one has died.....it is just a pile of bricks. xxx

Shabby - I lost heaps of weight around the three week post birth time. Put it all back and then some now. Also very tearful at that time. Gets better but slowly (in my case).

My friend's dad was air lifted to hosp at the weekend after a fall. Serious head injury and broken bones (which can be fixed). She feels guilty coz she stayed out for the night and was inconsolable when she told me. I want to scoop her up and hug her to bits. I started crying too. (and there's no ice cream in the house)

Emotional time having kids. Tell Emma she's not unusual. I'm sure with her brill MIL and DH/P she'll come good. xx

....and there's always a chance of a lottery win!!!

Quiet tonight isn't it ? did you see that programme about ID triplets last night? Fascinating stuff.

Meant to watch that Merly. It looked good. I did watch a programme about twins a few months ago that was fascinating. Anything like that really interests me.

Fancy a song - whats your favourite music - who do you like? If I have already asked you that please excuse me....I am slightly odd

youtube.com/watch?v=gppLf4XduoI This song always reminds me of our dear friend Ged who works and lives in Faliraki - a mad Scouser. He was having a really hard time a couple of years ago and now he just celebrated his first wedding anniversary!!!! He is a great mate.

Something upbeat. I love a good Nat King Cole number that I can croon away to. I love songs with words that mean something. I like allsorts. Songs can have so many memories attached can't they ?
When I was preggy I used to play classical music to my bump at 7pm each night. Not because I wanted DTS to be intelligent it just used to calm them down. Now we put the same CD on when they go to bed and it works like magic. Asleep within 2 mins. That cd always reminds me of being preggy and laying on the setee with my feet up on the arm.

Got to go. Eyes are dropping out of head. Night xx

Night honey...sorry I got caught up on FB. See you in the morning xxx

Shabby if she's losing lots of blood she should tell her mw or see the GP. Also, make her some nice iron-filled meals to make up for the blood that she's losing. Beef in guiness casserole type of thing. Lots of strawberries and kidney beans!

Ooh I'm meeting GBB tomorrow. Will snoop report back!

Good morning girls....that was a great nights sleep....NOT!!

Thanks for the advice Mars. She told Midwife last week who replied 'thats normal love!!!' will have a word with Danny about doctors appointment.

Oh Shabs . I would be devastated about the house and in floods of tears. We have only lived in our rented house here for 10 months but I am terrified of being told landlord is selling. We are just agreeing a 24 month contract but after 6 months either party can give 2 months notice. It is true it is just bricks but it has been your home for most of young Tomster's life and also just the pain and upheaval of having to move is enough to pee anyone off.

Ta Egg - his timing was shite poo to say the least.....Im having to work hard to keep DH and Tommy positive about everything. Think that is the hardest part - I took on the role of the 'strong one' 26 years ago after DS died and it has continued ever since. I despise being the 'strong one' wish someone else would take that role. Ho Hum - another day another dollar xx

I listen out for the bells still! Though, where I grow up, they actually did used to come. It was beautiful, a local charity sponsored it - big sleigh all lit up, really magical. I wish my kids could see it.

Lydle, I think it's jsut a relief that your dd wasn't upset. Very nasty thing to say, I jsut hope that it came out of not thinking rather than being racist. My dt1 really did look like a little monkey when he was born, very hairy, little round ears, big brown eyes - he was adorable. He still points to pics of monkeys now and says, look that me! I don't think it has to be racist.

Shabs, sorry to hear about the house. That happened to us once. We were allowed to stay but the rent started shooting up and they wanted a uge deposit. We ended up in a nicer place in a better area though. Fingers crossed for you it will turn up for the best. BTW I dreamed about you last night! I dreamt I came to visit you, danny, em and the baby! Danny was only about 15 for some reason and obsessed with computer games. Oh and egg was there.

That sounds like a true description of Danny now!!!! Him and Tom were playing some computer game last night that involves playing a RL guitar in time to the music on the game!!!!!!

Me and Em just kept looking at each other like this

I like comp games too.

I think we've been playing too much mario kart though - the dts run to school now pretending they are in the bloody game!
