The Norty Puddlehumpers present.... MUMSNET - THE MUSICAL!!!!

[EmpressOfTheSevenFlames]

Come in! Sit down! Have a and the show will start soon!

Hi gang. Been watching Doctor Who. Very disappointing end to the Ponds.

Now watching Fringe and going a lot.

I take it Dreamy is OI with a NC? Or did she just steal OI's baby?

I am lucky in that LittleTee's uniform is black. Covers everything!

Yeah I'm OI Tee. Was watching Father Ted and thought this would be an appropriate name for the way I feel at the moment!

Black top as well Tee? That would be a VERY good idea.

No, white polo underneath, but they're in their own building and it's very drafty so I don't think jumpers will be coming off much. Especially in NI!

Of course, they do take them off for gymnasium time on Tues and Thurs as they go up to the big school to use their gymnasium and that's a proper building!

He has been ok bonkey but is exceptionally grumpy today. No idea if its related its hit me pretty hard, mainly as I'm hormonal and cry easily but also we lost my Grandma the same way nearly 2yrs ago, and despite a year of councilling I never got over it as such, and its dragged up a lot of memories.

Both dcs are in vile moods so I should go and find something to do, roll on monday.

I'm here!

I have been researching jewellery making! My new hobby and hopefully a way to make some pocket money for christmas!

Sorry its bought back some bad stuff for you State :(

Ooh sounds interesting bonkey I make cakes for friends for christmas funds, not often just when people ask.

Got my best bargain yet the elc wooden fairy wonderland, and the mermaid one, boxed and look brand new £7 each! So that's dds birthday and christmas almost done, Not hugely impressed with the mermaid one but dd will be, but the fairy one, oooh I can't wait to play with it with her ofc :) now on the hunt for little mermaids and fairys to live in them!

Bargain!
A little bit of little girls toys! All I get is Power rangers and fighting.

Iv'e never done it before but have ordered some stuff to get me started so hopefully it will work out! Facebook will be my friend!

If not my whole family will be getting bags of beads for christmas .

Ds' pirate ship is one of my favourite toys too, and his train sets. There is a re-live my childhood factor with dd though.

Or just make them all jewelry? If all else fails my dcs would happily spend hours threading beads stick em in a jar and early learning centre eat your heart out for teaching fine motor skills!

Ooh oh and beyblades, I get a bit obsessive --kicking the dcs arse-- playing beyblades.

::grabs muffin::

Yawn

::holds out in the vague direction of the coffee pot::

Shoot. Forgot to make coffee...

Here you are Tee.

Oh thank you Empress. You're my favourite.

How is everything this morning?

Morning.

Little Bonkeys first full day today...and....dh is working aday shift!

I have a whole day to myself!

Its been months since the last one!

Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeee........

You're welcome Tee. Have one of State's muffins.

DD's off with a fluey cold and will probably spend most of the day watching DVDs. Which means I've got an unexpected day off work and I'm going to spend it getting DW's teaching paperwork UNDER CONTROL and reclaiming our lounge, while providing hot drinks, meds and sympathy every so often.

Bonkey What are you going to do? Hot bath with coffee and chocolate? Shopping for yourself?

I am going to work out costings for this jewellery stuff, then I am going to have a nice lunch, then I am going to do nothing for the last few hours!
I may even just sit in silence-something that doesn't happen very often .

Hope your dd gets better soon!

Sounds like heaven!

Thanks Bonks. I'm not too worried, it just seems to be the horrible thing we've all got atm. She's sitting in bed sipping hot chocolate and watching Outnumbered.

I hate tidying.
I just hate the mess more....

That's my motto empress I hate tidying but I hate the mess more.

Bonkey I've got 3hrs to myself tomorrow, dps out for the day, dd in nursery 8.50-12! I don't remember the last time I was home alone, possibly before dc! Dp won't be back until after there bedtime

Get well soon empress's dd xx

She says thank you State xx

It will be worth it.

Please can I have a top up too?

Of course, I have biscuits now too

Oh dear I have on rather miserable dp on my hands, he'd got free thorpe park tickets from the newspaper and the friend he was going with just texted him saying can't go, sorry. And no one else can get a day off such short notice. He's been pretty down in the dumps anyway recently and we never have treats just for us so I feel really bad for him.

Thank you.

Poor dp and poor you

I've just found our lounge floor. I KNEW we had one somewhere.

Lounge floor, is that like the elusive dc bedroom floors I hear so much about but rarely see?

Thanks for the top up.

Just back from fetching LittleTee from school. The walk that takes us 45 minutes in the morning takes an hour in the afternoon. Not unexpected! I had better be trim, svelte and in shape by Christmas with all the walking I'm doing!

I hope Empress DD feels better soon.

Bummer State!

I think LittleTee and I are making peanut butter cookies after lunch, if anyone wants one?
