Evening girls...everybody happy??

Finally got Tomster off the computer and up to his newly decorated and carpeted bedroom. Its really lovely in there. White ceiling and sky (Manchester City) blue on the walls. It makes the room look double its size - he has all his treasures in there and looks very cosy. Just our bedroom to do now and we have decorated and carpeted the house in about 3 weeks.

Phew I am cream crackered.

Ems and Dan took Lew for his first injection today and to see the doctor for Ems. You will never guess what he reckons she has 'PND!!!!' Has given her some different AD and is making her an appointment with a psyciatrist (sp??) cause Dan insisted he wanted her to see the guy he went to. My son has found his assertive head and she is responding so much better than when he has his dithering head on. This is also her second night at home.....she phoned me apologising for shutting me out and guess what I said 'No you didn't love I am just glad you are sorting it all out!!'

Oh shabs some positive news at last, I'm really glad. Any news on Beth?

I'm not posting too much at the moment, but am looking in and thinking of you all.

MarsLady · 07/08/2008 22:47

Fantastic news Shabs!

Pixi what's the course? I'm still recovering from my marathon of births!

Pix have mailed you, tis long!

Trips so glad they have blocked the nasty woman

Shabs hope Em is ok and Danny is staying strong. Keep thinking about Beth too, your head must be spinning.

FG you make me pmsl, i wish you wuld be more sociable and come and stay I am on my own next year for 9 MONTHS i think you should ALL come and stay to keep me company. Duty and all that

Momma are the twins in shoes yet? Have you got reins?

Ooogs how goes the sickness? Mine all gone! I forget i am pregnant half the time, am 17 weeks! Too fast...

shabster · 07/08/2008 23:03

Beth is still the same - sedated and ventilator on. They have found two quite nasty infections and her temp is high. She has been in this predicament before but my niece sounds very low and almost defeated.

I keep ringing the intensive care ward where the staff are wonderful (Gareth spent several days there) the male staff nurse keeps saying 'Shelley your Aunty Shabbs is on the phone!!'

This has been a strange year so far.......lots of highs and many lows.....normal family life really I suppose.

MarsLady · 07/08/2008 23:05

Have you in my prayers Shabs, you and all of yours!

lg&t... don't think I didn't see your den of iniquity! You go girl!

Yay Shabs!!! Women love an assertive chap, remember that scene in An Officer and a Gentleman, makes me go weak in the knees

Sensibly i am so glad the doc has offered help and Dan insisted she be able to talk to the psych. Talking is best, we all know that

largeginandtonic · 07/08/2008 23:09

Den of iniquity me? Where, are you sure. Wish i was in a den of inequity

shabster · 07/08/2008 23:10

Hiya G & T - I think the key to Dans change of attitude was when he rang me to tell me the truth about his family I told him about Beth and I couldn't stop crying. I told him get up to Ems mums get your partner and child and take them home. You are so very lucky to have a healthy baby, a much loved baby and a family who adore you all. Stop treading on eggshells with Em - get up there and tell her about Beth and how blessed we, as a family, are. Beth, bless her, has started the turn around in my darling sons life.

...and, yes, I totally agree with the Officer and a Gentleman thing and the best line of all time from Dirty Dancing 'nobody puts Baby in a corner.'

MarsLady · 07/08/2008 23:11

my last comment lg&t was not for you (sorry ) but for iamdingdong! Sigh...

Note to self... drink less wine before posting!

Not 100% sure Mars, I like the sound of Exploring Science but worry about the math element so maybe the Science starts here (10points) course and the Introduction to Social Sciences course (60p).

Bridget: "Nice boys don't kiss like that"

Mark Darcy: "oh yes they fucking do"

shabster · 07/08/2008 23:20

G & T we are a pair of sweaty ferrets - as my lovely mate Joester always refers to my over 21 tropical moments

piximon · 07/08/2008 23:23

LG&T you're my hero. I'm going to print it off tomorrow and see what I can pinch from there. I'm available for home visits fri-sun when dh is around to drive me.

Right being thrown off the pc now, my mum wants to go to bed. So off to read for me (insomnia really bad past few weeks and managing on about 4 hours sleep a night).

largeginandtonic · 07/08/2008 23:23

PMSL ROFL

My husband is home soooon, he is in for the of his life, when he left i was sick as a dog and going to bed at 8 pm. My newly retyned and particualrly raging libido has been unchecked for 6 weeks!!!!

Off to bed to read some Jilly Cooper to calm my nerves

shabster · 07/08/2008 23:24

largeginandtonic · 07/08/2008 23:25

largeginandtonic · 07/08/2008 23:27

shabster · 07/08/2008 23:32

frumpygrumpy · 07/08/2008 23:40
