I know what I would do.

  1. Buy a 5 bedroom house so we all get our own room, big garden so James could have a dog.
  1. Get private medical insurance so we never again have to await scans and results.
  1. Buy Shabs a villa in Faliraki.
  1. Throw a big party for all my lovely lovely mad mums on here.
  1. Treat myself to highlights.
  1. Buy bags and bags of M&S choccy nuts!

Momma. In Herts they put their hert and soul into everything they do .

I was in a huge Tescos this afternoon and they didn't have any genius bread [grrr]. Will have to pop into Enfield in the next couple of days to sort out some stuff for DD1's birthday so will try Waitrose - I have a feeling they were going to stock it.

I've just found out from the coeliac uk magazine that Kelloggs Rice Krispies and Coco Pops are no longer classed as gluten free (previously the barley content was 'allowed'), which is particularly annoying as I've only just bought 2 huge boxes of Coco Pops as they were on offer . Girls are upset - I now have to find replacements that will cost 2x as much .

Trips - how did H get on today?

Good evening ladies xx

Hi girls, I'm sending myself off to bed as I feel a bit rubbish. Have had an eye infection for best part of a month which has meant wearing my dreaded glasses non stop [YUK]. Have had two lots of antibiotic drops (meant for conjuntivitis) and it hasn't cleared an so now I must visit the doc to get a different drop for a different type of eye infection. I currently look like I have been punched in each eye. Swollen, bloodshot, weeping, I look HOT and driving is not easy when you are peering out like a mole.

Small problem is that no doctor at our practice can see me until Monday at 5pm. Yeah right!!! I love the "just keep it til it falls off" mentality

Go Tomboy! He is winning Shabs, he is winning. One day he is going to be such an amazing man. Love that "F* you" streak in him. You gave him that.

Up till being about 24 I spoke my mind - good or bad, hurtful to others or not. Then I had the twins at 25 and Matt at 27. I calmed down so much that I was almost asleep I let people walk all over me and cried daily because people were mean to me.

Then on my 40th birthday I found out that I was pregnant with Tomster. I decided that day that nobody would be allowed to say what they wanted about me. I found the old Shabbs.....when I met Chellester she 'made' me speak my mind and a new, improved, nasty piece of work was invented - the new Shabbster.

Nobody says anything nowadays that I dont like or appreciate. Sometimes, though, it takes all the courage I have to confront someone. BUT when it comes to Dan, Tom, Em, Lew or my DH - DO NOT UPSET ANY OF THEM I always knew I would fight to the death for my friends and family but I never knew I would be this fierce

triplets · 02/07/2009 09:53

Fierce you may be Shabs, but with a heart of 22ct gold and the funniest sense of humour I have ever known! Morning all, as you can see I am up to my ears in housework again I do seriously have lots to do, starting with my disgusting kitchen floor. Got the SKY man coming this afternoon to put in a new box and things and the cobwebs in the corners have blue name plaques on them H ok, just gone off to the allotment, he asked at the hospital yesterday if he could have an earlier appt than the 6th Aug to get his scan result, scan is on the 14th, apparently his onc is away on holiday! Fair enough but 3 weeks wait isnt fair on him. Also he cannot have his picc line removed until he gets that result, which means we cant think about a holiday as the line has to be flushed every week. What a palaver! Right onwards and upwards!

Not the weather for 1 yr old gingernuts either - not the biscuits the mighty Lew!!!!

He has been soooooooooooooooo miserable! I have stripped him down to just his nappy, rocked him to sleep and lay him in his pram. Opened the back door and front door and put him in the middle of the breeze....asleep at last

Awwwww Rubester - congratulations to him. Tom is 12 on the 24th of this month and is ecstatic that we will be in Faliraki

Just thought, we were pregnant at the same time with our lads and Tom was due on the 4th July - was only 20 days late though

frumpygrumpy · 02/07/2009 19:02

I'm sweaty.

Happy Birthday to Mstr Ruby tomorrow! tell us tomorrow what he's getting.......don't tell us tonight in case he hacks in.......

frumpygrumpy · 02/07/2009 19:03

When I said sweaty, I, of course, meant elegantly glowing all over in a non wet, non odorous sort of a way.

frumpygrumpy · 02/07/2009 19:08

My three challenges cherubs are having a late tea. Summer hols started here a week ago. They spent most of the day arguing playing in the garden and now sit, each completely naked at three bar stools in the kitchen eating dinner. They are seeing who can do the best bottom burp.......their naked bodies against plastic making a better sound than pant-muffled bottom burps. The giggles are ear splitting.

Its too sweet to tell off

northender · 02/07/2009 19:30
