Everyone's welcome

oH pippi ...not nice rows esp when you are pg think things are always 10 x worse.. Hope things are ok now. I have had dd and no dh round so have been busy also my once a week help ( only 3 hrs but its great ) is away for a month and dd is in very helpful mode I cant clean anything when she is round so my computer time has been cleaning time. Hope all goes well in Milano Franca and you manage to sort lots and lots of things out.

thanks rosa , I feel all sad today, I'll miss the dc.

why are you going on your own franca?

yea we are fine now. DH had been quite nasty for a couple of days, picking on me and wanting to fight, but yesterday morning he was so nasty with words I could not believe it! 99% of the times is lovely and nice but that one time trust you want to duck for cover. i don't even know what brough all his anger but all of a sudden he kind of woke up and felt so sorry and was super apologetic. I guess it was a build up from various reasons, not to do with me, and he took it out ON me (thanks!).
I am fine now, problem is once you say nasty things, even if he didn't mean them, they stay with the you for a while.

I'm sorry Pippi . Sometimes humans tend to take it out on the people they love the most . I hope you are all right now.

I'm going alone because dh's just started teaching and ds is at school, and I don't want him to miss out on anything as he seems to enjoy himself a lot now. My aunt is here, and I'll have lots of things to do in Mi anyway, I hope they'll be all right! (I'm writing a long list of regolament )

they'll be all right and so will you! enjoy the freedom!

are you watching theroux program about plastic surgery on BBc2? don't they look weird???

no, will switch telly on!

I cannot believe he had it done??!!

I like theroux!

oh bugger, I fgot distracted and didn't switch the tely on....what did he do? like him too

liposuction on his belly and fianchi. he looked a bit slimmer but he was good to start with. all other americans were very obsessed and looked awful.

. ma luis theraux is very thin if i remember well!

he is. he just had a tiny bit of belly and due manigliette dell'amore a good rswim would have cured. but the american doctors believed he was 'not balanced' and suggested lipo. he did it as a research.

ps dh and I are fine. it's just that we never fight and when we do it's not nice.

also the fighta always are about housework and bullshit like this. doesn't matter how much a man is a 'new man'... at times he still would like to have a stepford wife!!!

couldn't agree more re "new" man

Hope you are better Pippi. Maybe you should get a cleaner? Had a tummy bug all weekend, I keep getting every little virus that comes our way...Off to do some cleaning.

Ma xche the sera I am on MN you are not there ???? Glad all is sorted out Pippi I know what you mean Franca that you take things out on the people you love more.. But esp with your hormones alle stelle its not nice !
Med try boosting your vitamin intake and take supplements to boost your immune system. I am about to start my course of Broncheal Vaxom ( sp??) As apparently it helps to ward off colds..Expensive though..

Stasera faccio la pasta e fagioli, per rimettermi dal bug, ecco la ricetta.

Soffritto: olio di oliva, aglio, cipolla, sedano, carota, un goccio di vino rosso. Aggiungi un po' di pelati, prezzemolo e origano. Aggiungi acqua con sale e fagioli e poi la pasta. Per messicanizzare i fagioli aggiungi al soffritto un peperone e mettici piu aglio che cipolle.

humm yummi hot med... which fagioli, in scatola o 'veri'? If I didn't have jamie oliver beef stew in the oven already I will try to do it next week when I come back.

got a cleaner. it took a while to find a good one in the new place. although it wasn't the real reasons he was upset, the cleaning was just the 'casus belli' IFKWIM, it's still nice not to have to discuss this subject.

I'm off on wedn, so i might disappear till sunday. no technology at my dad unfortunately.

franca I hope you sort everything out in italy and have a good aperitivo with brang!!

AHHHH ALMOST FORGOT: WENT TO HAVE FIRST SCAN TODAY!!!!!!!!!!! LO2 was moving a lot, waved and turned. even though is the second time around I am still amazed at how 'something' really grows in there. next scan 27 of nov - will know the sex!!! yuppie!!!

hothell is DP back yet??? you must join me soon.

lavender??? blargh, worse than pink!!

I don;t know how they do it in italy, I don't think they find out as much although a lot of people go to private gynecologist and so they know as soon as they can if they want to.
here in the UK I I have to wait till the 20weeks scan and then hope than it will be visible and the lady not to much in a hurry.
how's in america?

Fagioli veri, so obviously need to soak overnight, i am sure you know.

no not really, I've been told on a numerous occasions but cannot retain this simple info. really.

lol!
Anyway dh is back and last thing I want to do is have sex with him. He is really annoying me! May need a sperm donor.

have arrived in Milano.
Pippi, glad that the scan went well and you saw the little one moving aroud .
And at Cali going to babyshower... so american!
I think Italians, or at least my friends in Italy tend to want to find out baby's sex more than here. it's usually at the 20 weeks scan, or if they have an amnio. If I had another one i'd want a surprise!
I'm eating a coppa del nonno!!!
